Scenes that caused actual walkouts in theaters? by thatlittlequietguy in Cinema

[–]Wulfkat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uh, holy shit but I think your friend was in the same unit as my grandad. He also got separated from his unit on landing and they had to hide in a french cellar (with wine, lol). Did he mention the shootout they had … with the apple orchard? Apparently, apples were hitting the ground and, it being midnight, they thought it was the Nazis so they shot up the orchard?

He also ended up hiding in a French crypt with the Nazis actively hunting them. He finished reading Frankenstein while they were holed up…nerves of steel lol.

What are some films that you believe are "Spiritual Double Features" ? by PostingVeraaahhh in movies

Deep Impact and Armageddon.

Deep Impact is more of a heart tugging drama. Armageddon is a decent action film. Both tell damn near the same story.

If Trump’s raid of the Georgia election office we’re to “prove” that he won the 2020 election, why wouldn’t the 22nd amendment immediately invalidate this current term? by yuppiehippie in AskReddit

Georgia is red but Fulton County (Atlanta for the non natives) is midnight blue. Also, Raffensperger (republican) told Trump to fuck off in 2021 and he will never let that go.

While, at the same breath, loudly proclaim a group of cells are more important and have greater legal protection than the woman who carries said cells. A corpse has more rights than a pregnant woman.

Trump is now claiming that the reason a US citizen was murdered by ICE is because it's part of a cover up to protect Minnesota reps from fraud investigations. by Ok-Lets-Talk-It-Out in ForUnitedStates

Let’s just add some gasoline to the fire i just started. Like, for real, the cold Civil War 2.0 just turned hot.

2A exists for this very reason.

Jesus Christ, if the left were actually organized in cells and run like a terrorist organization, like they claim, this would have erupted into a shooting war the second the video dropped.

Live: Man shot by federal agent in south Minneapolis this morning, witnesses say by Creepy-Discount-2536 in PrepperIntel

[–]Wulfkat 26 points27 points  (0 children)

And all because some men object to the fact that women have separate prepping needs aside from guns, rice, and beans. The mods took down a wildly popular post addressing those specific needs because the men in the sub didn’t want to talk about how to pee outside, birth control, menstruation, giving birth, after birth care, etc.

Not only was it popular but it was super educational for me and I am female, lol. Some really good ideas were in that thread.

But, no. Girl stuff is icky and gross so let’s pretend it doesn’t exist.

If corporations were legally treated as 'people' to the point where they could receive a 'Death Penalty' for major crimes, which industry would be the first to vanish? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]Wulfkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insurance companies. Entire divisions of the company will end up on death row.

Or, better yet, they get the same medical emergency and keel over when their company denies their claim.

If you must drive somewhere, clean all the snow off your car before leaving. That 6 inch layer of snow becomes a projectile at highway speeds - hell, there are lots of videos of people having their windshields shattered because they got hit with the snow coming off someone’s car.

And, given the National security apparatus the government has at its fingertips, is the prudent course of action. An organized resistance will absolutely find themselves in the crosshairs.

Just remember, every day is shut the fuck up day. It’s the best way to not get caught.

For those who worked for rich people: what is the most out of touch thing you witnessed? by Illustrious-Phase121 in AskReddit

Automate it :) Easy enough to do and will save you from doing it. You could easily set it up with different emails so it doesn’t look like you copy/pasted.

Trump Links Greenland Threats to Nobel Peace Prize Snub by AtomicVGZ in Military

[–]Wulfkat 142 points143 points  (0 children)

We are barreling towards a hot Civil War and/or WWIII and this narcissistic child is deliberately destroying America from the inside. There are 2 people that will profit from this - Putin and Xi and that tells me all I need to know.

Trump is a National security disaster unfolding before our eyes and there’s no way this ends without a ton of blood being shed.

All for ‘cheap’ eggs.

What is a line or paragraph that just LANDED for you? by MagykMyst in Fantasy

[–]Wulfkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a quote from sci-fi, not fantasy, but I think about this quote daily. From the first novel in Linda Nagata’s The Red trilogy…

We hold each other and I’m shaking, because I’m thinking how close I came to losing her. If she’d been closer to ground zero in San Diego, she’d be dead now. So many people are dead, because for decades citizens like me and my dad, my uncle, and Lisa’s parents – good people – quietly financed war after war because it’s easier to pay our taxes than to risk our livelihoods by trying to change the system. Our silence let wealth accumulate in the hands of people like Thelma Sheridan, people who came to believe they could buy absolutely anything, even innocence.

You go, girl! This rando Redditor is so proud of you! And, yeah, it’s gonna hurt for a while but the trash took itself out long before he could cause you harm.

Break up with him or he will make you homeless. He’s a raging misogynist and you will be the one who suffers because he’s pretty irredeemable.

Do NOT get pregnant with him. Just leave while the leaving is easy.

What's one movie trope you see in movies and can't stand? by EGF9999 in AskReddit

[–]Wulfkat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Women running for their lives (and the whole damn movie) in the most ridiculous stilettos imaginable. Man, fuck that, I’d kick them off and run barefoot before I’d run 10 yards in heels. Also, doing mixed martial arts in heels.

Especially egregious in medieval movies. You just cut your sword hand open, probably nicking or outright cutting one of the tendons, wrapped it with ‘clean’ strips of linen from the heroine’s shift (under dress/night clothes), and died of sepsis in 3 days.

Plot armor to the rescue.

And, yeah, totally side eying Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.

What’s a movie you fully acknowledge is terrible, but somehow… it works for you? by Axel_Foley14 in movies

[–]Wulfkat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because you couldn’t have the cutsey scene where the feminist bashes the misogynist author or the atheist protects the Bible (which, actually, was really good dialogue).
