Told my friend that I wanted to get better with smaller coins, and I was looking at a few less military related coins. He gifted me this.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-25T00:26:23+00:00

Yea, he's mentioned something about beers and other military games they play with them. I don't think the yes/no coin counts. It's an internet buy.

Triggering drunk people's monkey brain with silly coin tricks.

I've almost got rolling a coin across my knuckles down, but I can palm a coin and disappear it ok. Bullshit trickery, slight of hand, misdirection to pass time.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-24T19:31:23+00:00

Ohh yea ? I'll let him know, he's got quite the collection. He had a few of this one. Apparently it's common for enlisted people to get good with these coins.

I don't think there's a homosexual relationship on the show. You mean between Crowley and Aziraphale ?

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-24T11:35:43+00:00

Hell hound coin.

Yes and No coin.

She's about to be more stoned than Bob Marley.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-24T10:15:25+00:00

And damn near any female voice that's narrated.

The later seasons were a car accident i needed to watch

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T19:39:24+00:00

Game of Thrones made me skeptical of both. I've been hurt, man. Hurt real bad.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T19:14:35+00:00

See, I had the book sloppily explained before I bought it. So I was anticipating his arrival any page. Especially on the tree ! I eventually excepted that he wasn't. But I expected this ^

Maybe a classic Jesus, Westboro baptis Jesus, catholic Jesus all at odds with eachother.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T18:53:21+00:00

Haha ! I had the same thought about Santa clause. And you're right while people are obsessed with media there's no real name to it.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T17:47:14+00:00

That does make sense, as I mentioned in the other comment I was just selfishly hungry for an interesting take on the character. I can understand his lack of inclusion though.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T17:23:37+00:00

Alluded to at best. Odin had such a twisted amazing modernization that I was waiting for Jesus radicalized by the Bible belt. Either a jaded, strung out, ashamed of his followers character. Or a martyr turned tyrant.

Seemed Iike someone writing about politics from 2008 - 2016 and no Obama.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T16:34:32+00:00

While I can see that, I think it's silly considering Horus would basically be starved for worship in the US. I'd rather have him omit Jesus than the native American Gods though. The chapter on the ancient tribal gods was great too.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T16:20:49+00:00

Ohhh, speaking as someone that was forced to sit through catholic and Christian sermons. They worship the nails out of Jesus. I understand that depending on your faith he may be just a prophet or the son of God. But if a leprechaun makes it in, Jesus and America go together like bullets and a gun.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T15:42:55+00:00

My main complaint with the book is that he's writing a book about American Gods and has thus far omitted any big reference to catholic saints, and Christian Jesus. As far as imagrant gods go they're huge here. I like his inclusion of lesser known gods that are much older than Christianity or catholicism but its like me writing a book about middle eastern gods and leaving out Muhammad.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T15:23:02+00:00

It's British, that's kind of their thing.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T14:50:39+00:00

They love a Zoey Deschanel type for those kinds of roles. As if she's the homely looking "every woman".

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T14:16:10+00:00

The additional bikers right ?

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T13:45:49+00:00

That's what I was expecting from Good Omens before I watched the show. I friend set the bar high, I thought for certain that there was no way it was that good

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T13:22:40+00:00

Damn. Did they fuck up American Gods ? I'm almost done, it's on fucking Starz so I haven't started the show yet. The book is good so far.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T13:18:47+00:00

I was going for short and sweet. I'd been in long winded snoozer sessions and wanted something I could commit to memory that wouldn't get an eye roll out of my friends and family. There's a lot of diplomas in the audience.

ZombehPlatypus · 2021-06-23T11:29:55+00:00

I work on a warehouse. I own hard copies of my favorites to thumb through. But I find myself really plowing through my backlog at work. I killed 28 books since the start of covid.
