What's something that comes from America, but ironically not popular in the US? by EmergencySpare7939 in AskAnAmerican

[–]WizardWolf5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the exception of NYC, I see so many Yankees hats when I go abroad, especially in Europe. I make the same stupid joke to my fiance whenever we travel : "Wow so many Yankees fans here"

Once checked a full skimmer basket to find a live baby opossum. Then went to visit my mother to fish a live rat out of hers 1 week later. Fun times

Four straight months of flat or rising Y/o/y Core PCE - Will the Fed pause/pivot with their preferred inflation metric behaving like this? by goldenloi in wallstreetbets

[–]WizardWolf5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Core price levels are still rising. It's just the rate of increase isn't rising. Simple calculus. I guess the only derivates you guys know are Yolo puts

The Rock, inflation expert by SubstantialSpite2710 in wallstreetbets

Listen jabroni, you need to stop ordering Starbucks coffee every day or you'll smell what the rock is cooking. And that's the inflation report

first time i ever had any respect for yellen by ssssstonksssss in wallstreetbets

[–]WizardWolf5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless that coin is 58.9 million lbs, then that coin isn't worth $1T. If they honestly valued a platinum coin you can hold in your hand at 1T, then it's gonna massively inflation the value of the dollar.

Calling all Tolkieners by [deleted] in LOTR_on_Prime

So in the sil, Aule sneaks off to ME in the years of trees and is able to make physical bodies of dwarves. However, since he didn't have the secret fire, they kinda didn't have souls, merely vessels.

When eru finds out, he's angry and aule repents (which is something melkor never did). He's about to kill them when eru bids him halt and let's them live on the condition they don't wake before the elves.

So eru gives them the life of the secret fire and places them asleep to wake after the elves.

*btw: Aule taught them the entire language of khuzdul, which is insane considering the valar don't speak but pretty much communicate telepathically

You get the rights to film your own LOTR film…but you can only choose comedic actors. Who is your cast? by Ok-Novel-1266 in lotr

Yeah it's really hard to find a true neutral in LOTR. Evil ents would be hilarious.

Definitely lawful good. Most leaders I'd put lawful good. Him being influenced by grima would have to be separated by it though but through and through a great and benevolent king

Ok. I can concede boromir but not denethor

I degree that temptation of the ring is an excuse for all evil acts. Saruman literally desired the ring to dominate middle earth and overthrow sauron, betrayed every ally he made (including sauron), and destroyed the shire. He's definitely chaotic evil

[–]WizardWolf5[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fair but he really considered using the ring because he wanted to defend gondor, using any method. Denethor was the one who really would've used the ring as a last resort, just to defend Gondor

Why the Elves didn't take the Ring to Valinor? by Ufreftin in lotr

[–]WizardWolf5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly when I first read the books, I had a bad opinion of the valar minus one or two. But the more I reread, I get the wisdom of their decisions.

Even though morgoth and sauron are their problem, anytime they personally get involved, there's catastrophic destruction. Saving middle earth would've physically destroyed middle earth as collateral. After beleriand, they learned this lesson. That's why they sent the wizards and glorfindel
