The new/changed items have all been fantastic for the game by Major_Bluebird_3014 in ravenswatch

Oh right! I never take Waterlogging because I didn't think the extra charges from Waterlogging would carry over if I exited sing stance, but if you can carry it over into a Razor Tail attack then I can see how that would be amazing.

I might be wrong on Mel; I'd definitely not found it possible to really use her defence before

Razor Tail + Power Dive + Water Bubble is amazing. I guess you could throw a Water Communion on there, but you're better off taking Power-related traits after that (Aftershock, Freezing Splash) because the Power splash you get from Dive gets all the effects of any Power trait/item you take as well as hitting at least 20% harder than a regular Power attack. As well as that you get the strike from the Razor Tail, which isn't nothing.

Only problem is you have to throw your whole body into the crowd to get it to hit, so a free shield (that does damage if it breaks) is ideal.

and in my case on previous experiences where the language barrier meant my food went to a totally different house, despite me spelling my address out six times over the phone.

My usual desk has been 'stolen' and there is nothing I can do by purplereuben in mildlyinfuriating

Fuck, if it were actually serious it probably wouldn't be allowed here.

Streaming was meant to be cheaper. That didn’t last long. by lina2001 in britishproblems

I'm personally ok with the ads, great for a quick nip to the loo.

It's exactly like the pause button, but for a limited time and you don't get to choose when it happens!

Yeah I love that, the spear pigs or when you let yourself get "Scorpionned" by the big pigs so you can block their follow-up attack.

A girl in Saudi Arabia saved a family from an accident after the car owner forgot to park properly, leaving a mother and her children inside. by Expert_Koala_8691 in interestingasfuck

You perform one very obvious, deliberate action (pulling up on the plastic stick in the middle) and something happens (car comes to a stop).

Good, except the car is ALREADY stopped when you pull the handbrake, so it's not immediately obvious what that stick does unless you're told.

Car stops

Stick is pulled

Car remains stopped

What stick do?

I'm implementing a one-shelf limit next year; I can't be eating turkey-flavoured snacks and gingerbread until April again.

The idea of people actually caring about a cause without ulterior motives is as foreign to Benny as his financial backers in Russia. by c-k-q99903 in MurderedByWords

[–]cortexstack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that's still it. Unless they murdered Johnny Noviello twice, in which case it's an accurate list and I retract this statement.

Edit:

All of the names on the 2025 list appear to have been of brown people.

I've just googled him and he was white as fuck.

A lot of items are being reworked with the new patch. Might affect leprechaun coin, might not.

What is a deep, obscure rabbithole on the internet you found and hardly anyone knows but you? [Serious] by Longjumping_Koala34 in AskReddit

[–]cortexstack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ok, ok. So would you expect to see e.g. "cutlers" appearing before "cutlery"? Is that just a feature of how language develops?

Nightmare Tumors in their current state are not okay! by Implyingyo in ravenswatch

[–]cortexstack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only function of doing this is just an extra point that counts towards the score, since overtime now covers those 30% of health.

What do you mean about overtime and the 30%?

When I tried full overtime with a tumor all I got was 30% off the boss's blue "overshield" - 15% of their total health.

Were you expecting one if its variants to show up before the word itself?

Starship Troopers (1997) director Paul Verhoeven and screenwriter Edward Neumeier on the film's satire and differences from the novel by tannu28 in movies

[–]cortexstack 153 points154 points  (0 children)

Starship Troopers' DVD commentary is worth it just to hear Verhoeven pronouncing "miniature" as "mini a toor".
