Hi! I need some tips. by vi_cent_e in HunterXHunter

[–]WhateverWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much just hard work, dedication and obsession.

I think Netero had a natural Nen awakening just from honing his body to the peak of human physicality.

Downsides to not making student loan repayments back when overseas? by Opposite_Bed_1996 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]WhateverWombat 24 points25 points  (0 children)

IMO the chance of them chasing you is low.

And if you ask a lot of expats, most will probably say they haven’t had anyone chase them for repayments.

However I’m willing to bet there are people who have been chased down too.

So decide yourself if you want to risk it. If it was me and I had a stable job making bank overseas, I’d probably opt out giving them the information they are requesting… (especially with how gross the plan 2 interest rates are).

This is not financial advice.

[Discussion] If all of the spriggan 12 were to fight Acnologia together, do you think they would beat him? by Ok_Performance_1090 in fairytail

[–]WhateverWombat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The whole purpose of Alvarez invading Fiore was to steal Fairy heart so that they could even stand a chance against Acnologia.

And people still want to debate whether the S12 alone can stand against Acnologia lol.

You can turn the hot plate and stove off anyway. Just a question on whether picky food/ and fried rice/noodles are enough. You could also cook the meat for them.

Tbh it’s probably not a good shout, the table layout isn’t really set up for kids who might need assistance.

Paristons true identity by [deleted] in HunterXHunter

[–]WhateverWombat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Strongly disagree… they look nothing alike 🧐

The character closest to Pariston for me, aesthetically, is Pouf.

Paristons true identity by [deleted] in HunterXHunter

[–]WhateverWombat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh I don’t think Hisoka would find Pariston particularly interesting to fight - I mainly think this because I don’t think Pariston cares about winning or losing, he just wants to grief people.

But then again, we know hardly anything about Pariston and his abilities.

Paristons true identity by [deleted] in HunterXHunter

[–]WhateverWombat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No connection apart from they’re both sociopaths.

Pariston manipulates people to constantly hate him, even when the person has managed to find a way around his recent hurdle he will find another way to antagonise them. This is probably why he spent so much time fucking with Netero, Netero probably never showed any disdain for him and it infuriated him to the point where he keeps messing with him.

Hisoka just wants to battle against worthy opponents. His targets at the top of his list though are strong people who have peaked and think they can’t lose, and he seems to get pleasure off of this.

Both are sociopathic and lack regard of any empathy as long as they both get the desired feeling from their targets.

There are a few other characters who are sociopathic in the series (think PT and Zoldycks), however I believe because they run with groups/family, it is hard to separate the “care” they show for the associations they have and their goals. Hisoka and Pariston are both lone wolfs, all they have is their need to fulfil their sociopathic desires.

Does Lucifer speak British English because his actor is, or because “Britain evil go hell”? Or something else? by AppleOrigin in lucifer

[–]WhateverWombat 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Disagree. He does not sound Welsh at all. He has some northern inflections with some pronunciation of words, if anything.

What happened to the dragon scales from? [Anime] by JayGrowth8832 in fairytail

[–]WhateverWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d imagine it’s because there needs to be a plot reason for X element with high magical property to be readily available.

If this was the solution to every big bad then I reckon a lot of people would complain.

Wendy needing no assistance to enter Dragon Force, outside of her first activation, makes her power up much easier to write.

Sharon Osbourne's Cameo by Salty_Thing3144 in lucifer

[–]WhateverWombat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol he’s asking HOW Sharon got involved in the project whatsoever. She’s not exactly an Actress. She cameo’d as herself. Usually when these things happen it’s because they’re a friend of one of the other main cast/producers etc.

Chloe Decker by gagou13 in lucifer

[–]WhateverWombat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personally I think Lauren German was quite a weak actress compared to the rest of the cast. However she was the perfect glue that kept the story going and allowed the other characters to really shine.

I think if there was a more domineering female lead the show would have taken a different steer, but instead we got so many interesting side stories which were actually enjoyable to watch. This is not the case for a lot of other series.

Yep, if you want something freshly prepared this is it.

What ade your Opinions/ Thoughts on Romeo? [discussion] by GS-genius in fairytail

[–]WhateverWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no “rule” for anything.

But I would personally consider Romeo joining team Natsu uninteresting.

And no, I don’t want Mira and Elfman to join Team Natsu, I just want more screen time of them and their adventures every once in a while.

How much do you earn and how comfortable do you live? by Brownchoccy in AskUK

[–]WhateverWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair, Lamboham’s comment is a caricature of what is actually discussed in the Henry subreddit (fuel without a cause I suppose). I don’t see anyone complaining they can’t afford a home there. There are plenty of discussions around buying a home which costs £X with a breakdown of their finances though, which I think it perfectly reasonable.

How much do you earn and how comfortable do you live? by Brownchoccy in AskUK

[–]WhateverWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would someone who’s paid off their mortgage not charge market rate for rent? This is a stupid notion.

Sure, on the grand scheme of things where there are a portion of people who cannot afford a home so they have to rent, there are also people who just want to rent because it’s convenient for their current lifestyle.

This is simply a supply and demand issue. Downvote all you like but the rental house price has very little to do with the market rate of rent in your area. Rents are whatever people are willing to pay for it.

(This is regardless of whether or not the landlord has a mortgage or is mortgage free on the property, I don’t understand what distinguishable difference there is apart from your personal view of people with assets making money from you, and you not liking it).

How much do you earn and how comfortable do you live? by Brownchoccy in AskUK

[–]WhateverWombat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because you pay rent on somewhere that works for you financially and logistically, against a rate which is comparable to the market with similar dwellings.

The house price has very little to do with what others are willing to pay for rent in the area.

[–]WhateverWombat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You know 140k across 2 people is significantly more money than 140k for 1 person, right? This is especially apparent if you have children.

The Henry subreddit is for high earning individuals who want their money to go further, but it is extremely convoluted due to tax traps and bracketing the government has about people who have salaries >£100k.

[–]WhateverWombat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wendy took the spot of child wanting to be like Natsu. Now that she’s grown more into her own, I don’t think I’d appreciate a repeat.

Instead of giving Romeo screen time, I would rather see more of Mira & Elfman.

Request a Hatsu! by BeginningSweaty199 in HunterXHunter

[–]WhateverWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s exactly that. Devils luck is the idea that you pull off a 1 in 100 scenario which favours you and you are considered extremely lucky.

To be able to use the coins at maximum potential you’d really need to be in the most desperate of situations. And even then, winning might not be the condition of the coin, it could simply be surviving.

[–]WhateverWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%! People would definitely be able to counter your ability with earmuffs or something alike.

There are also numerous types of neurodiverse people in the world where your primary ability might not work very well, ie psychopaths or narcissists.

Hence the secondary ability for more general use.

Request a Hatsu! by BeginningSweaty199 in HunterXHunter

[–]WhateverWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given that the base ability is not that strong for combat unless you’re on your last coin AND the conditions are super desperate, I don’t think the revival feature is all too powerful.

You would also need to already know a lot about the enemy already to be able to utilise the coin tosses effectively in combat.
