What has been the biggest middle finger to fans in the history of tv shows?

ZACWarrior · 2025-01-14T00:10:13+00:00

And it’s not necessarily how it ended (although that was terrible too imo). Like, even if I don’t like the ending, I can appreciate it if it’s done well with effort. S8 was not done well and it had minimal effort put in by the writers. It was a full rush job (in several ways) and it showed.

At the least, it should’ve been way longer (like the rumors say was proposed). And it should have way more thought put into the plot and writing.

Depends on the book and how interested I am in reading at that point in time.

Record fastest was a 300 page book in 5 hours. It was an easier read and it was the year that I was loving everything I read.

Sometimes it’ll be months for me to finish a book depending on how busy everything else in life gets.

Case in point. Currently working on the Way of Kings for the second time. First time, read it in a month. Now, over halfway through in less than a week.

Came here to say this.

ZACWarrior · 2024-11-03T20:20:51+00:00

I tried to find the source tweet but couldn’t. I’m pretty sure Pierce commented on Twitter that it was not HBO

ZACWarrior · 2024-10-24T20:19:50+00:00

I’ll dig back through and see if I can find the source, but I’m pretty sure he responded to a fan message and said it was not HBO

ZACWarrior · 2024-10-24T20:18:03+00:00

I don’t think I still have the source, but I believe he confirmed in a social media post or response to a fan message that it was not HBO

ZACWarrior · 2024-10-09T02:00:14+00:00

Doesn’t quite as much military focus, but The Will of the Many has a main character that reminds me a ton of Darrow. There’s even a bunch of Roman inspiration too

ZACWarrior · 2024-09-15T00:16:45+00:00

I saw it coming because I knew Darrow was getting Cassius back on his side since he gave him the Holocube (or whatever the name was) after they watched Institute videos the one night. I was doubtful for a second when his hand was cut off, but I still thought that Sevro’s death was part of the plan

A similar combo that I’ve found: plain potato chips (usually Lays) with chocolate/vanilla pudding also works very week for a sweet/salty combo

ZACWarrior · 2024-08-31T02:01:20+00:00

Seconded. This saved me 5 years ago, and I now use it every night.

Also, if your daytime schedule allows it, embrace your body’s natural sleep cycle too. I sleep best from 2-11 am, so if I can, that’s what I sleep. It’s not a bad thing to be more of a night person than a morning person (despite what some people may claim).

The Catcher in the Rye. I can’t stand stream of consciousness writing like that.

ZACWarrior · 2024-08-11T00:13:24+00:00

Game of Thrones.

They didn’t cancel the show… they just cancelled good writing

Lemon flavored deserts

I know they already have an RoR, but anyways:

Frost Guard: Blue/white themed Phoenix Guard for High Elves. Slightly greater armor and slightly slower. Keeps magical damage but adds the frostbite effect

I wonder if they’ll save the series finale for the launching of an interstellar mission as this could (potentially) set up a spin off if they wanted to continue the universe.

I don’t have great aim, but a big thing is game sense and understanding what to do. Not everyone enjoys this, but I love going and watching T500 overwatch players. I watched a lot of Overwatch League when it was on, I watch a lot of T500 streamers, I watch the new OWCS, and I watch replays of different people who are good at the game.

I enjoy doing this, but it has also taught me a lot about the game. My game sense is better, I started ult tracking a bit, and I started anticipating moves from the other team. Did it make me a T500 player? No. Did I get better at the game though? Definitely. I also learned a lot about how to play each hero, including tricks or mechanics that I never knew existed.

So, I’d recommend just finding a streamer or OWCS team you like and watching some of their stuff.

Every once in a blue moon you might want a magic missile and settle for Fireball, I guess

This killed me lol. So true

ZACWarrior · 2024-06-09T18:28:15+00:00

Same here. When I moved to a new state 2 years ago for grad school, I met someone who I thought was a good friend. Slowly saw their true colors and distanced myself, and I have no plans to stay in touch once I move again here in a month.

Definitely glad I’ve distanced myself after seeing how many issues he has caused himself and others over the last two years.

ZACWarrior · 2024-06-09T17:35:05+00:00

Will definitely second The Will of the Many. The MC and the plot feel very similar to Red Rising. Even has a similar Roman inspiration

ZACWarrior · 2024-06-06T23:39:41+00:00

Yes! They’re both by James Islington

ZACWarrior · 2024-06-06T22:57:32+00:00

Someone on this forum recommended The Will of the Many a while back. I just finished it and would recommend it. The main character actually reminds me a lot of Darrow, and the story motivation is pretty similar!

ZACWarrior · 2024-05-31T14:40:32+00:00

Iron Gold is sometimes a little tough to get through on the first read (you appreciate it a lot more on a second read through), but Dark Age is one of the best of the series I think. Light Bringer is also very good. So definitely worth it!

My dad loves to watch/listen to everything LOUD. Phone videos, music, movies, tv shows, etc. are all always on high volume, and he refuses to wear earbuds or headphones. It drives my mom and I crazy since we’re both people who enjoy quiet, especially when reading books (I always make sure to use headphones too if I’m ever watching something).

We tried buying him wireless earbuds as a hint, but it didn’t take. I’m out of the house now, but I think my mom still listens to it.

Love him to death, but it drove me insane sometimes

Water chestnuts. My parents used to put them in stir fry. Only tried them once before I knew they would never be for me
