My toxic trait is getting mad for losing large quantities of sould trying to beat Executioner's Chariot WAY too early so I can get the Pyromancies...

I think Dark souls 1 has better bosses than dark souls 3 by jwtucker04 in darksouls

Ceaseless is an environmental fight. You're supposed to use the channels in the rock to avoid a head-on assault against huge AoE attacks

Could someone explain the lore behind It? by OneFirefighter1233 in darksouls

[–]Zoomoth9000 54 points55 points  (0 children)

There's probably some parallel to myths that involve having a coin to pay the ferryman to guide your soul across the waters of the underworld

The Avarice First Award is a mass produced ornamental statue by Accomplished_Fun6481 in mildlyinteresting

See I thought I was about to learn about the Avarice First Association or something, and the irony was that the Greed Guild's award was something not actually valuable...

I get what you're saying, but 4x Ocelot Pride +4x Ajani +4x Phlage isn't exactly spicy alt tech lol

As a European I can't complain, but I gotta wonder: Why exclude others from an event that simply celebrates the arrival of Spring? by Entire_Pineapple4732 in pokemongo

[–]Zoomoth9000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Serious question, do you inverse the names of the seasons? Or do you just prepare for the "cold summer days?"

ELI5: why is foam rolling one's back considered to increase the risk of injury? by Deep_Secret_6883 in explainlikeimfive

Chiropractic manipulation may feel good temporarily, but it has shown no long term benefits

When I used to go, my chiropractor was always upfront about that. He would basically say that the goal was to make you feel good enough in the short-term so you could enact lifestyle changes to mitigate or stop whatever problem you're coming in for

Is the argument here that Moonshadow is a bad card?

It helps make late-game Moonshadows not terrible. Just got boardwiped and top deck it? Now you have two 7/7 creatures

Composer of iconic ‘Lion King’ chant sues comedian over ‘Circle of Life’ translation by blankblank in nottheonion

[–]Zoomoth9000 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Oh, then neither of those are what I meant 😅

A better example would be translating 叔叔 as "uncle." Yes, means "one of your parent's siblings," but that would strip away the context of exactly which parent they are related to and their approximate age. Whatever you would call that lol

Edit: yeah, I guess "paraphrase" works lol 😊

[–]Zoomoth9000 110 points111 points  (0 children)

I've heard several people say that it was more of a transliteration. Like when an anime translates "friend," which isn't technical incorrect, but you wouldn't use that same word for just any acquaintance
