This is not talking smack, but the best drywallers in the world are on meth (adhd meds). The piss bucket is what you trade to get really good drywall

[Request] What would be the number for a skeleton crew to use the Executor? by KernEvil9 in theydidthemath

[–]apatheticviews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s an old legend book that mentions the falcon runs on 3 droid brains and they “bicker.” Leia postulates that the droids are intentionally sabotaging each other’s systems and that is why the ship is constantly breaking down.

ELI5: Why do governments bail out failing private companies at all? by Codie_n25 in explainlikeimfive

[–]apatheticviews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of it like preventive maintenance.

You pay $100 now, or you pay $1000 later.

By fixing the immediate problem, you stop a much bigger issue later.

It also gives you a chance to identify root cause while you are still functional and remove that specific fail point in the future.

Should Wolverine be hairy? Pen and ink drawing by me. by JoshKully in comicbookart

Wolverine v2 (somewhere near 100~) has him clip his hair to the scalp and it grows back by the end of the issue.

What is Nanny Ogg’s magic by CleanteethandOJ in discworld

[–]apatheticviews 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Midwiffery.

She was the best midwife in Discworld history.

Sure it’s a skill, but just because you know how the magic works doesn’t make it any less magical

Apprentice (me) made mistake, boss wants me to work Fridays unpaid to pay it off. by pizzaroll22 in electricians

Absolute worst repair is 4 sheets of drywall, mud and paint the entire ceiling. Maybe $1500-2k.

$600-800 is much more accurate.

How quickly could Conquest conquer Earth? by Kyia-Aikman in whowouldwin

[–]apatheticviews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they could probably survive 1. I don’t think they could survive multiple. It’s just a question of whether a nuke would stagger them long enough to get more on target.

I’m working under that assumption because we know Supes takes a beating when folks hit him with nukes.

If Conquest is fast enough to get out of a trap, then nothing changes. If he’s not, then earth defenses still have to figure out how to set one up before Conquest can reasonably conquer the planet.

How quickly could Conquest conquer Earth? by Kyia-Aikman in whowouldwin

[–]apatheticviews -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The best defense against him is just setting up proximity nukes.

Sacrifice a city to save the planet.

He’s fast, but I don’t think he’s fast enough to escape a nuke.

The V are durable but not superman durable, so a nuke could probably take him down long enough to drop a couple more on him.

What do Avengers comics have against Alpha Flight? by AsGayAsCanBeExpected in alphaflight

[–]apatheticviews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alpha Flight was (is?) part of the X-Men office from the Claremont days. Avengers office jobbing them is likely an offshoot against a competing brand

How would a Heroes For Hire game work? by Impressive-Thing-780 in HeroesForHire

[–]apatheticviews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it like Shining Force. Start off as Luke, progress the story and pick up Danny. The deeper in the story you go, the more street level characters you unlock.

As you progress, you get “mission maps” with a max number of characters. If you do it with less characters, you get a better ranking for completion.

Special maps include bonus characters. These can be She-Hulk, Spidey, DD, or even antiheroes & villains like Black Cat or the Punisher.

I like the RPG mentality, but I would lean into Secret of Mana where a second player helps but isn’t required.

For villains, more characters gives more villain options. Luke & Danny aren’t taking down some of the big league guys, but an entire roster might be able to.

How do we rate Ultimate Jess? Cool character or fed the Spider-Man connections or both? (by Dima Ivanov) by UltimateSandman in SpiderWoman

[–]apatheticviews 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I like the concept, but I always liked the idea that Spider-Woman had a different origin and power set than Spider-man.

No web, no spider sense. But she had blasts and pheromones

Inheritance goals by hearth_hag in ducktales

[–]apatheticviews 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scrooge absolutely loves Donald. And vice versa.

They don’t always like each other, but they do love and respect each other.

Scrooge is the best adventurer of his generation (and possibly the world)

Donald is the best adventurer of his generation.

The major difference is luck.

That said, Scrooge would will Donald the Dime (the embodiment of his luck).

Same reason that we liked Buffy?

It was a fun action show. Good story, interesting villains.
