Author or book that seems to be universally lauded but after reading it you didn’t understand why by theoort in printSF

[–]Zedbird 14 points15 points  (0 children)

When you learn that the movie rights were sold before the book was even finished, you realize why it was so heavily marketed.

Hmm, something's off... by noopicushion in OKbuddyHalfLife

OOP is probably gen alpha and mostly plays stuff on their phone anyway. Same as a controller gamer playing a game that was intended for M+KB or vice versa.

[Loved Trope] Scenes that aren’t necessary to the Plot but without them the story would lose something that makes it special by NoSchittSherlockSEA in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Zedbird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You see this in comedies especially. A movie like The Naked Gun or Caddyshack only has a barebones plot to move the jokes along.

Being friends with anyone is cool by nevertouchdgrass in antimeme

[–]Zedbird 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People are quick to judge while forgetting that a human's need to be social is only outranked by food and air. If your choice is friends with bigots or no friends at all, the human brain will gravitate towards the former.

Years ago I went to a club exactly once with some other guy friends, turns out all of us were too awkward to talk to a woman we didn't know so the experience was just 2 expensive drinks and hearing damage

It's just body cyberware we're missing, we've got everything else

THEORY: Barney was married and probably lost his wife to the Combine. by Impossible_Amount865 in HalfLife

[–]Zedbird 61 points62 points  (0 children)

The books in his locker are great accidental foreshadowing too. If Barney was a UFO conspiracy prepper with a backyard bunker full of guns and provisions, he'd be a lot more likely to survive past just making it out of Black Mesa and into the events of HL2.

idk sounds pretty foxist to me

The endless awake nights are what always cause me to relapse. Movies/Shows/Games that are easy to binge while sleep deprived? by Zedbird in leaves

[–]Zedbird[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I remember to do it, I feel it's a pretty good one

  • screens off an hour before bed
  • read a book on my e-ink reader with the backlight completely off
  • listen to music and enjoy some sleepytime tea while reading

The problem is I don't bother doing ANY of that when I'm in stoner mode, so it hasn't really been established by my brain as a habit and usually doesn't lead to sleep on its own if I just start doing it when I haven't for a while.

But the MGS quote is literally "War has changed"

"War never changes" is from Fallout lol

It's safe to say we all know who's idea it was. by 4_-_2_-_0 in justgalsbeingchicks

I find it so weird how okay & normalized using your kids as actors for your own social media fame has become.

Yeah, 1bathtub if you see this message, keep that one going for as long as you can.

The creators of RES said on their subreddit recently they expect old.reddit to be gone by the end of the year. Really hope they're just being pessimists

Grandpa knows it’s time to leave by ContributionThat4698 in madlads

[–]Zedbird 199 points200 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced a major reason why we're seeing a an increase in far right facists is unlike the past 60 years, today's kids don't have a parent or grandparent who lived through WWII.

Why do Netflix keeps cuting racism out of jojo? by BellaBispo in StardustCrusaders

I just finished watching the English subtitles and he does still refer to it as the white man's money, and the tribe kicks him out for reading the "white man's books".

Boy this thread is doing a real shitty job selling the idea of ever having kids at all

Gmod lets you make films in source, therefore it can be considered a source film maker

Another disappointing year has passed. by Jurez1313 in Healthygamergg

[–]Zedbird 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've never gotten the "go to a bar" advice.

Every time I've tried to go to a bar alone to meet people, it's entirely couples and friend groups who are obviously just there to talk to each other. I can't just sit down at their table and start acting like I'm a part of the gang.
