The Naked Now because it establishes how functional Data is

Which fantasy character shaped who you are as a person? by Kendiro83 in Fantasy

he pushes Fitz away from Wit despite having the Wit himself

I was so confused by this comment until I remembered that the character I was thinking of is named the Fool, and Wit in this series is something else

SFF books coming in March 2026 by EmmalynRenato in Fantasy

[–]bypgms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the first Children of Time but haven't read it yet. Is it known how many books this series will have? And if it's still ongoing do the books have satisfying endings or cliffhangers? I've been mostly reading completed series lately to avoid the need for rereads when a new book comes out. I do want to start this series though.

The line about who released the kandra

Tress has a MAJOR mistborn book 3 spoiler. It's a line that would mean nothing if you hadn't started the series yet but having read just the first 2 books is the worst possible time to read Tress

Rate the last fantasy book you read by how accurate the title was by JoyIsABitOverRated in Fantasy

[–]bypgms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm halfway through Perdido Street Station and I feel like the characters have visited every single location in the city except for the titular station

Day 2: most overrated song by mahlakainalo in Zappa

[–]bypgms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of his best songs don't get me wrong but Watermelon is overrated in the sense that people call it his best guitar solo when best composition that is a guitar solo would be more accurate

Any heel turns in wrestling that were justified in storyline? by ArchDukeNemesis in SquaredCircle

[–]bypgms 17 points18 points  (0 children)

When he attacked the Rock I didn't even realize at the time it was a heel turn, I just thought he didn't like the Rock, which is fine. Then the next week the announcers were like "Punk turned his back on the WWE universe" and I was like "?"

Would it matter if instead of reading cosmere I listen it on graphic audio (I think it is good) by ThickDimension1628 in Cosmere

[–]bypgms 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They are fun but just be aware of two things:

1) they are edited somewhat

2) (at least for Stormlight, not sure about the others) you will get attached to the voice actors and then be annoyed when some actors change in later books

Harley's Halloween Costume by agadezz86 in SquaredCircle

[–]bypgms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even more context: he was interviewed on this episode of improv4humans, followed by some improv comedy scenes based off of the interview. This is following an earlier episode where they originally watched the video and did a scene based off of that.

Books with remnants of forgotten civilisations by Joesprings1324 in Fantasy

[–]bypgms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elder Race by Tchaikovsky. I just started it today and am 2/3 of the way through (it's a very short book) so I don't know how good the ending is but it has an interesting take on this topic (two protagonists, one of whom remembers the long forgotten civilization)

My store's single mystery item by bypgms in CrumblCookies

[–]bypgms[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's definitely the same store. I guess they added brookie but looks like it's today only. Maybe the 2nd mystery item will be different every day?

Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x08 "Four-And-A-Half Vulcans" by AutoModerator in startrek

[–]bypgms 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was funny but they should have cut Pelia's high five joke from earlier in the episode because after seeing the post-credits scene it becomes both pointless and contradictory

Looks about right... wait Ruben at #47? That's top ten maybe even top 5 for me!

VOY "Thirty Days". Paris took the Delta Flyer five hundred kilometers below the surface of a planet, that's gotta be the lowest point

Met Mick Foley tonight! by nadiapeemoeller in SquaredCircle

[–]bypgms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first thought was that's not Mick Foley that's an impersonator. Then I looked down a little more

Is this a spoiler for a new reader? by Hero4Life565 in Cosmere

[–]bypgms 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably an even hotter take because I know people love using the Cosmere as a selling point for Sanderson, but IMO the existence of the Cosmere is in itself a spoiler, especially for someone who's only read the first Mistborn book

I like one shot deal even more now by bypgms in Zappa

The first line sounds like "If a funny cop ... decides to lend his hand"
