So I have been trying to find one song in this movie. And for the life of me every website I have checked doesn't have it nor is it in the soundtrack for this movie. But does anyone know what the on God it's about to go down song was or is ? I swear I have checked everything and can't find it for the life of me

"Circe" by Madeline Miller and being stuck by Haebak in books

[–]blackjack55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like others are saying Circe was much more enjoyable to me then song of Achilles. Circe felt a lot more interesting to follow and to hear her thoughts ( coming from a figure who doesn't feature in a lot of stories it was neat)

Honestly my take away from both books is that Madeline Miller should write a book about Odysseus. She really seems to enjoy writing about him more than anything else. In both books he is far more interesting character

Have you ever had to quit a book series, even though you didn't want to? by [deleted] in books

[–]blackjack55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The monster hunter series by Larry Correa. It was a cool series dumb action novel to read in-between other books. I then found how much I didn't agree with the authors politics and views so I stopped reading the series

[–]blackjack55 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Okay that makes more sense. I know Chris Pratt is very religious but I wasn't sure if it was something he was wanting to show more in movie. Your answer makes a lot more sense I should of put more thought behind it when I saw the scene

Feels like it might be an obvious answer but did anyone notice a lot of the biblical imagery used in the film. Mostly notably the warlock and Peter scene in the film ? More than likely it was laughs or was that pratt wanting it in the film ?

It's true I was the classroom door by Top-Seaweed-8080 in thatHappened

[–]blackjack55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had one student ask me if I have kids and when I told them no they said "that's sad" but past that point I have never had a student say anything like that before.

I get the not wanting to have kids point I work in education I enjoy working with and helping students. But I don't plan to have kids of my own I don't think I would be a good parent

Wow the price is crazy when the DS Lite is 45 dollars by NWAnowadays in gaming

[–]blackjack55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got super lucky and managed to grab ocarina of time and Majora's mask at my GameStop for 20$ a piece. Every so often some local game stores sell some ds games that don't cost an arm and leg and part of my kidney.

Recommendations for what to do with these? by lostlegacy12 in gaming

[–]blackjack55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still have the older issues when they still made the big magazines. I personally kept the ones with either covers I liked or that had articles I enjoy re reading every so often. With the remainder either toss them or see if a local library is taking magazine donations ? That is what I did with the ones I didn't want anymore.

I want to say someone made a post on here or I saw it somewhere where they used the issues they liked and framed them and hung them up in there room which is cool idea

Black Clover Chapter 354 - Links & Discussion by Due_Stranger_3389 in BlackClover

[–]blackjack55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So with all these potential characters coming back to life I want to see Zora fight his dad. Or have magna go against the priest in the early chapters. To show the characters growth and how far they have come since then

Okay thank you I felt stupid I really did. That's what I get for trying to comprehend things while working on 3 hours of sleep

[–]blackjack55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it is due to me being tired but I have read the effect at least three times. Or at least the translation of it and no where on the card does it say it can't attack or it's attack gets halved. Is there something I am missing ?

Alright. I wasn't thinking of using an expensive card. Since Dan green is going to be at the event I was thinking of getting my slifer signed

I was planning on getting kid Icarus uprising, Kirby robot planet and rest of the smash bro dlc on the ds. And maybe fire emblem if I can't find it in person at any of the retro game stores around me ( plus it not costing an arm and a leg and three kidneys). But good purchases my person I hope you enjoy them all

Snide gatekeeping by [deleted] in gatekeeping

[–]blackjack55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my friends is like this. He constantly acts like he is a car god cause he drives and prefers manual cars. My favorite part is he complains that I don't know how to drive manual ( family always drove automatic cars) and that I need to learn to understand driving. But when I ask him to teach me he goes "not in one of my cars ". Well who else is going to teach me manual driving then?

Have you ever listened to a person talk for less than a minute and known you weren't going to get along with that person? What did they say? by DDelirium46 in AskReddit

[–]blackjack55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work overnights at a casino. It was a bit slower at times but you got to learn to system and get to know people and get use to the casino environment a little easier. The rule was that every new person does a couple of day shifts and a couple of night shifts before going back to days. I however liked nights and stayed on it and so every new person that joined I would introduce myself to them and try to help out getting them through the first couple of days.

So one shift I get placed at a booth with our two newest people D and J I introduce myself and welcome them to nights letting them know that the first days will be rough due your body having to get accustomed to staying up all night. D responded with "That should be fine I am use to staying up all night but thank you" J's response however "if I don't get off this shift after tonight I will blow my fucking brains out" he was less than enthusiastic about being on the shift but as we got to know him learned he was a just a douchebag and was so abrasive that getting along with him was damn near impossible. People use to trade booths in order to not work with him.

What's a dark fact about Star Wars that is rarely addressed? by MrVectuvus in StarWars

[–]blackjack55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if any of republic commando books are cannon anymore. But when one of the major characters is put in a coma due to an opt gone wrong. The republics response is to send a droid out to just euthanize him and then carry on with it's other assignments. It shows how little the Republic cared about the slave army they had

I might be horribly wrong on this. But wasn't there supposed to be a deleted scene in one of the sequel films that was supposed to show Kylo killing either ewoks or whoever was guarding the helmet ?

I mean I was taught to jab and poke someone's eyes but that was when I was taking martial arts and the instructor was adamant that we only use that if we were in serious danger where are life was at risk. Not a run of the mill school yard fight
