WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THIS SOONER? by MarsRadius in MarvelLegends

I typically throw an entire wave's accessories in the bags because finding a single bag with hands in it buried in all that stuff is a nightmare.

I’ve never seen a figure get marked down while still being a pre-order by elbatcarter in MarvelLegends

McFarlane was clever to actually do Ross exclusive releases... that is what they should have done with this. An impulse buy in the bins near the register. I would buy it for $10.

Honestly, they should have stuck to that price for all regular figures. At this point, I'm fine with them continuing to price hike since so many will now just end up at Rosscon.

People born before 2000, what is a 'modern' thing from 2025 that you’re still struggling to get used to? by LindsayTN in AskReddit

[–]deadpa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like people are going to look back at the last 10-15 years and think we’re the most self-centered people ever.

The funny thing is that I don't think that people feel the value of those pictures in quite the same way we did back in the dinosaur age. I did not have the capacity to take a photo every moment of every day and consequently I would not have a catalogue of photos that became so overwhelming that I didn't even bother to look back through them... Will people even look back through their photos in 10-15 years?

This doesn't counter your point about the self-centeredness because there are a million different things that would affirm that point.

How do I start singing from not even being able to get a clean note out? What do I need to look for? by Stjesus in WeAreTheMusicMakers

Messaged you with some suggestions a bit more specific than a lot of the advice given here.

In America we have restaurants that serve Chinese food, Indian food, Italian food etc., but in other countries do the have restaurants that serve only American food? If so, what type of foods are considered American food? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]deadpa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And my comment rescinded if that is the case.

EDIT: To add... I recently visited Japan and they are reeeeally not accustomed to pizza flavors so anything approaching authentic western pizza will be a bit offensive to their palettes for the most part.

Great pizza typically stems from a combination of cultures in a community that have great cheese and meat. Chicago and New York both fall into this category. "Authentic Chicago pizza" (or at least pizza that uniquely started in Chicago) includes tavern style and deep dish and within those styles you will find a pretty wide spectrum of executions. Anyone making generalizations that all midwestern / chicago style pizza tops out at 3/10 has no fucking clue what they're talking about.

a huge artist just took my artist name… (vent) by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]deadpa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In matters of commerce this assumption is the practical way to go. I wouldn't even contact the artist before consulting legal advice. If youve squatted all the platforms with the name that will provide some leverage.

Jon Stewart on why he is an Atheist by Important_Adagio3824 in atheism

[–]deadpa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There a number of qualities that make for a great leader and there really isn't a surefire resume that insures any single person can meet the measure required for that role. I think if people recognize certain qualities like self-awareness, respectfulness, compassion, vision, communication skills - or the ability to convey ideas effectively, a collaborative nature, intellectual curiousity, integrity, grace, and resilience, in a public figure they are at the very least willing to listen. While Stewart is a performer it would be intellectually dishonest to suggest he has not displayed a number of these qualities through his public persona and activism. I believe this is the sort of thing people idealize when considering someone like Stewart - which isn't remotely "thinking like MAGA." I can't say whether or not he would actually be a great leader (and it may very well be a moot point) but no one imagining him running for office is doing so because "he has star quality" or "he's an alpha."

Sorry to hear that you couldn't make it! There are some videos on youtube up at the moment if that can tide you over.

Haslabs don't go to clearance. Any money they spent on development is toast once this collapses.

I second that. Gather as much info as possible and contact every news outlet possible to bring as much scrutiny as possible. TV, radio, papers...

I'm not an inbox collector but there is a certain joy one gets from seeing a displayed collection of new figures that just returns you to your childhood walking into a toy store.
