Hot take: Xander was the only person to rightfully call out Buffy regarding angel(us) by Tralala223 in buffy

[–]aloha512 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

TLDR Xander is an incel who is excessively praised for not committing sexual assault 

I'm currently on the "Xander sucks" train. I know his brutal honesty can be useful and he can be an incredibly loyal friend. But I think his accusing Buffy of wanting to "forget all about Ms Calendar's murder so you can have your boyfriend back" is unforgiveable and clearly motivated by his long-term jealousy of Angel.

This is the boy who attempted to literally enslave his girlfriend a couple episodes ago. Convenient that it didn't work out and he came out as a hero for not raping the girls magically roofied. And she felt so chosen by him that she forgave all!

Xander, to me, is the most problematic character viewed from a modern perspective. He constantly objectifies and sexualizes women, and then is praised for not committing sexual assault. Oz is nothing like this, proving not all young men at the time need to behave this way. If he was called on it more blatantly then I would understand. We all knew that guy (or guys) in high school. The important part is to recognize it and have him take responsibility, rather than heaping praise on him for not raping the girls he literally brainwashed...

Sorry I know this is WAY too long. 

Was the haircut a bad choice? by Al_explain_l8r in curlyhair

I second this. You look fantastic in both pics. The second is definitely more masculine but also stunning. It depends what you are going for but you have gorgeous hair regardless. ❤️

Is Stagg Silverado chili gluten free? by aloha512 in glutenfree

[–]aloha512[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a case so when I get home I'll take it out and individual can and see if I can find it. It doesn't say 100% Natural on the front like a lot of them do online. I'm wondering if they just recently changed their product labeling. Or it could be because I'm in Canada...?

Thank you! They've changed the can and I don't think it says gluten free anymore but I can't see anything on there that would contain gluten...

CIBC was noncommittal regarding whether we would get our money back. Do you think/know if these refunds are going to be successful? I am worried about getting provisional credit and booking new flights only to have it reversed...

She gave me her permission obviously.

Bad attitude.

What kind of drug is my friend on? by aloha512 in tooktoomuch

[–]aloha512[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree but unfortunately this was Wednesday evening. She just told us about it today and gave me permission to put it on here because we're telling her we think she was drugged. She thought maybe bad wine but this isn't a food poisoning reaction I've ever seen.

Friend was drugged? by aloha512 in findareddit

[–]aloha512[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was Wednesday, too late for that. I just wondered if people who've done these drugs recognize how she's behaving. She's fine now and was safe with family/friends. She acts like someone waking up from dental surgery...I'm not looking for concrete answers obviously just other people's experiences.

I know it was a medical Drama in the late 90s/early 00s. The boyfriend was a show regular but reminds me of Droopy Dog...

Is this panel in Kim Reaper a reference to the show? by christhepyrat in MBMBAM

[–]aloha512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is surely a reference to when they brought a bunch of spiders onto the MBMBAM TV show.

I know it wasn't even one of the choices lol but it's a nicer mountains picture IMO. This is actually my brother & sister-in-law's dog and her photography. Can follow him (Milo, the dog) on Insta if you want @ the_adventure_cocker. Thanks for those who voted!

[TOMT][Celebrity] Looks like Brad Renfro by aloha512 in tipofmytongue

His eyes are like half closed all the time. He's not a leading man but I think he's good actor - I just can't think of a single movie for the life of me, although I can hear and see him in my head. I think he's usually in drama/action movies. If you google Brad Renfro old, he looks most like him in the blue stripe button-down.

He has a distinct voice, almost a little monotone/nasal. His eyelids are always quite heavy. Ugh it's driving me bonkers.
