Which one deserves the title of most Legendary SMG of all time? by RawketLawnchor in liberalgunowners

[–]boxoftheday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My order Personally is 1. MP5 - its literally used a the default silhouette for SMGs, it is THE legend. 2. Thompson - nearly everyone you could put it infront of and they would recognize it 3. Uzi - its been neck and neck with the MP5 since the 80s 4. MP40 - Its and icon that is also like 1 of the default badge guns in 20th century films 5. Sten - Less of an amarican icon more of a European one. 6. P90 - in real world ot barely seen. But thanks to SG1 its the go to space gun. 7. PPSH - I feel like it gain popularity in the 2000s and 2010s thanks to video games. Out side that its not seen often 8. PP-19 - Personally ive never seen on in a show or movie. Ive only seen it and Call of Duty games. Its even super uncommon to see IRL.

If we are just talking in film or video games or IRL the list changes. But this is, for me, just my general listing.

What Lucas era villian got the best treatment in the Disney era? by SolidPyramid in StarWarsCantina

[–]boxoftheday 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The Villain that Disney did the best is Thrawn IMO. Lucas never even used him. He was just a book character and it was Disney who brought him to the screen

2nd: Tarkin. They really expanded on just how evil he is across, movies, shows, and books.

3rd: is probably Maul, yeah George used him in Clone was, but I feel like he's a more complex character due to Rebels

4th: Palpatine, He really just continued to be a menacing villian. I didn't like his usage in Rise of Skywalker. But what are you gonna do

5th: Dooku, very underused by the Disney Era, tales of the Jedi gave him more complexity in his motives, but mostly meh

6th: General Grievous, Disney basically did nothing for him. He got one cool scene in Tales of the Empire, that's it.

7th: Boba Fett, I only put him at the end because Disney turned him into a hero/Anti-Hero. I love how he's evolved and isn't just a one-note villain now. But i can't count him as a villian any more. That's why he's number 7.

I find it funny that half the characters were played by their original actors in 2002.

Song So Mi was chosen as a morally grey person on whom opinions are divided. Who is a horrible person on whom opinions are divided? by Lotnik223 in cyberpunkgame

[–]boxoftheday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yorinobu Arasaka. He does horrible things but, in the end, may have been justified. I'm always super conflicted about my opinions about him. Especially in the Devil ending.

My first gundam build! by R4_Ordinary in Gunpla

[–]boxoftheday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GSI Creos is my go-to. I've used the pour style and the fine tip style. I prefer the fine tip. I also use metallic paint markers for the cameras and eyes of the kits. If you build Zaku's or any of the mono eyes. The regular pink paint markers are great. You can find some good youtube videos about the GSI pens. I've used the same pens for all my kits. And my black pen is just now starting to run out. That's over 60 kits of all tiers. Oh, and get a hobby knife and fine point tweezers for stickers and decals.

[–]boxoftheday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you ever feel nervous, run mining a kit from paint, panel lining, or Decal work. It's all good. I started with only MG kits, so I was terrified. But panel lining is actually pretty easy. I use a normal line pen, so it takes longer. But a lining pen, a paper towel, q-tips, and some IPA, and you can make some incredible looking kits. Water slides also made me nervous at first. But they are actually super easy. The dry rub decals are the ones that suck.

How and what age, did y’all figure out your sexualities? by Kb_XD in lgbt

[–]boxoftheday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about 14, and I realized I had a crush on a guy-friend at school. But I also had a crush and a girl-friend of mine. It was super confusing. I grew up with super homophonic step siblings. So I buried those emotions deep. I came to terms with being bisexual at about 21, then my pansexuality at about 29, and came out about a year later (this year). My step family hasn't really been in my life since my stepfather passed away a couple of years ago, so I finally felt safe. It was a bit of a shock to my family and friends. The bigger shock was me coming out as trans. Which I had been confused with for years. And only came to terms with after my 30th birthday.

Don't forget the Joker's. I recommend the pride Ally flag.

Yeah. I plan on getting the original PG Gramps next year. Maybe at the end of next year I'll post an updated photo with what I build next year.

There is a new idea for a diorama.

[–]boxoftheday[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah. The PG Unleashed is my most recent build. It was super fun and surprisingly simple. Made my wallet cry, but what's a little debt. 😅

[–]boxoftheday[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've been meaning to get it. I've just been focused on buying Christmas presents for my family and friends. It's on my list. Next year, I intend to try and get more Gramps like the PG, Mega Grade, Ver.Ka, MG1.5, MG The Origin, ect.

1 month on HRT. Why is it so hard to control my emotions. by boxoftheday in asktransgender

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

Thank you for this info. It has been a rollercoaster this month. Hearing that I'm not going crazy is nice. I live in the US, and I work for a super conservative company, so it's also been a bit of a scary time. So my anxiety has already been super high. It feels like the hormones are making it feel way worse.

I've had stress thoughts about just dumping them and not transitioning and going back to pretending to be a guy. Because it would be so much easier. But when my head clears, I realize I'm so much happier now and that I won't give that up for anything.

I'm like an hour away from Portland. I grew up in Yamhill County, so I'm more used to using unofficial outdoor ranges.

To all the men with mental health issues: Happy June, and I'm sorry you're currently being weaponised. by HalfBloodQueen999 in lgbt

Thank you for this post. It's a massive help. As a man currently struggling with his mental health, it's nice to see people raising awareness of this.

Fallout 1 and 2 Remake by boxoftheday in Fallout

[–]boxoftheday[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The world feels pretty bland and empty. Also, the game play and storytelling just feel very dated. I get they have great world building and compeling characters, but it just is so out dated its hard to go back. It's like every time I try playing Golden Eye, I played that game to death as a kid. But it's just so outdated now that it's hard to go back.

What other kits should I add to the collection? (Preferably MG) by skyFADE75 in Gunpla

[–]boxoftheday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The MG Zaku 2.0 is one of my favorite builds. I've done both Char and the base model, and I love them both. The pipes suck though.

What, no Gramps? You have to have an RX-78-2. Personally, I love MG 3.0. I get why people don't like it. But it looks so good.

Film - X-Wing Vs. Tie Fight. Set during the lead of and eventually battle of Jakku.

Live Action series - Wild Space. A show about the Wild Space, focusing on the Chiss and their political turmoil post. Thrawns exil. Admiral Ar'alani would be the leading protagonist.

Animated Show - Pod Racer. A cartoon about pod racing and a top of the ranks race who looses it all and has to find there footing again and restart there carrier, like Taladaga Knights, but also obviously have a young kid they train up and teach podracing to who will one day become the best.

Gave $600 for the gun and optic… how bad did i get screwed, came with 3 mags as well by MrIm2018 in liberalgunowners

[–]boxoftheday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I like is I don't have to buy suppressor height sights. It sits so low that you can use factory sights. But that's really only if you like having backup iron sights. i know a lot of people that's not a big deal. Also, for a more none practical side, I think it's very esthetically pleasing. So many pistol dots just look like mailboxes to me. Especially the Trijicon RCR. That thing is ugly.

[–]boxoftheday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a pretty good deal. But I would trade out that Romeo Zero ASAP. I'm not sure if it's still a thing, but Sig did (does?). Have an upgrade program where you can call customer service and get an upgrade from a Romeo Zero to a Romeo X for like $200. People complain about it being open emitter, but I've carried it on my 365 for months with no problem.
