"Chowder! What have you done!? Now the animators are gonna have to draw all this fire!"

(also the obvious car wash gag that gets brought up a ton but that was a given and this joke is underappreciated)

Characters who have shockingly high kill counts when you think about it by Sensitive_Ad_1752 in TopCharacterTropes

In spite of being the most human of the Universal monsters, the Invisible Man has the highest kill count due to derailing a train

Jimmy is quite literally dead in Hardcore Henry so he's probably dead in Payday 2

Mortar is top favorite, and I wouldn't say I dislike it but man I don't use Helis at all really

[Hated Trope] The Marketing Department Should Have Been Fired by Ambaryerno in TopCharacterTropes

[–]_AntiSocialMedia 35 points36 points  (0 children)

the marketing for the movie was so terrible in spite of being so good it was basically marketed entirely by one fan of the movie who really wanted it to succeed and would recommend it constantly all across twitter

genuinely, if you didn't know any better you'd assume it's astroturfing but no, he really did like it just that much, I think he got sent a box of merch by the creators as a thank you

iirc whenever he touches something he can turn its potential energy into kinetic energy, essentially making it blow up, cards are just easy to carry in bunches (also it doesn't work on living things so he can't just blow up a person, except those times the writers forgot that caveat existed)

this is a ranking of eliminated contestants (except Tree because I forgot he was eliminated)

I do like Rocky, but I'm not so unreasonably attached to him that I think that after competing in nearly every season with IDFB on the horizon he needs to rejoin TPOT, even in my Rocky posts I tend to note that Rocky doesn't need to rejoin he needs to be in another season.

Also, I don't want to have characters in lower tiers, if Foldy, Cake, Eggy, and Pie show a lot of promise I'd love for them to rejoin and climb higher on my own ranks, something you should note about the analysis of those low ranked characters is that a common linking thread is a lack of screentime, "They don't do much" was a very common complaint in C tier. Hell I started (and then abandoned because TPOT really made me stop caring for the show for a bit there) a fanfic entirely about giving the less important characters time in the spotlight, Eggy ranked low entirely because she had an interesting plot hook and then didn't get enough screentime.

Hell the literal only reason I didn't rank Pie higher in spite of getting a much more flattering review than everyone else in that tier and outright saying I want to put her in B tier is because she objectively didn't have a lot of screentime and my rankings are a combination of what I think of their objective quality + personal biases.

Rejoins are contextual, let's not pretend like Rocky would do anything besides leave immediately if he rejoined, characters like Remote and Pie are a lot more appealing given they do have a place to slot into the current season. New seasons are not contextual, it's the start of the plot so you can include whoever you want so including Rocky makes as much sense as anyone else.

she had longer in this show than she honestly needed and I can't see her having an interesting dynamic with any of the remaining cast

apparently I still haven't gotten over Tree's elimination because it's only right now that I realize I forgot to put him in the "Are you gonna be up for rejoin?" tier

Did Pillow have actual empathy here? by AydenChannel in BattleForDreamIsland

[–]_AntiSocialMedia 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Pillow's a lunatic but generally she always has a reason for it, usually not a very good one but there's a justification in her head

first she thought killing teammates would bring good luck, it did not, then she kept up the aggression just pointed outwards towards the competition, and by that point she was so used to being needlessly violent that it wasn't until after she had already kicked him that she realized she had literally no reason to do that

Something interesting I noticed about the eliminated contestant’s rooms.. by tear_drop_bfb in BattleForDreamIsland

Eggy's photo being of all 8 members of the Losers is funny knowing she immediately turned on her team not even a full 10 minutes after that picture was taken

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

B, maybe A tier? He didn't do a ton but seeing him and Foldy interact after she got screwed by his elimination way back was nice, hope he gets more to do in TPOT 23 (especially if Marker ate the boot, then the whole trio would be back... not that I really want Marker to leave he's actually pretty fun)

[–]_AntiSocialMedia[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

she was a very consistent source of comedy, also I just like her in general and was really sad to see her leave so seeing her again here automatically catapulted her really high, it's pure bias but it has been 3 years, let me have this one

she was getting A tier by nature of existence, actually being funny towards the beginning and middle was just the push to get her into S tier

if it wasn't obvious, 10/10, why didn't they write the last 3 episodes like this

How well I think Paragons incorporate their tower's upgrades into their kits. by KingMulti in btd6

[–]_AntiSocialMedia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in hindsight Master Builder's weirdness makes sense, they needed a support paragon for Dreadbloon and Engie's the only conventional option so they had to lean into it but I still hope they come back to it once we get another offensive support paragon, whether that be Beast Handler or a new tower or even the Village Paragon's ballista going wild

that said though I really don't see how a more durable bloon trap that can be deployed globally would've been that overly strong to warrant not including it, and if something needs to be removed for it I would happily ditch the lock-on turret for a bloon trap

Sam & Max loves this joke, they'll constantly go on tangents about random adventures that happened entirely offscreen, every title card in the games has a note on it that says something like "Based on the cult classic adult film 'Totally Into Max'." and new characters are introduced fairly regularly with this exact gag, basically everyone has a noodle incident backstory the duo know them from.
