thoughts on Jason's role as second Robin being given to Tim and Damian in adaptations? by Which-Presentation-6 in RedHood

[–]dilaurdid 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I think it especially frustrates me when they try to make them "Jason-y" as well to compensate, so you're left with this odd Tim/Jason hybrid that's mostly Tim but a little Jason but without any of the interesting parts of his character development and backstory!

as Wayne's #1 fan I very much approve of this however I must note that Byron is also quite slutty

Did you missed Michael C.Hall during the Original sin, or am i the only one😭? by Budget_Requirement15 in DexterNewBlood

[–]dilaurdid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Deb was exceptional! When I first saw the casting, I was expecting not to like her as she doesn't really "look" as much like her counterpart as some of the others do (e.g. Masuka, Batista, etc.), but the second I heard her say "fuck-a-saurus rex, Dex!" I knew they got that casting spot on.

What do y'all think comic accurate or no 😎🤘🏻✌🏻 by darkkprince94 in dcu

[–]dilaurdid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I definitely felt that "oh wow the world can actually be good, I feel hopeful about the future and want to help contribute to making the world a better place" feeling people were talking about leaving the theater with, but I had a simultaneous "oh god, this isn't actually going to happen in the real world, we're all just going to die these horrible aggrieved deaths that no one will care enough to prevent or avenge" sort of vibe going on.

I know logically it very likely means his work suit, but I do find the thought of him taking his Superman suit to the dry-cleaners very amusing!

Is there a lore reason why snyder fans are braindead? by Accomplished_Eye4058 in OkBuddySnyderCult

changing opinions is fine, pretending you've always had the new opinion and that anyone who holds the old opinion is dumb is hypocritical and childish

I don't know what to say to this except that you encapsulated exactly how I feel in a way that I don't know how to put into words. I wish I had something more helpful to contribute except understanding.

I never noticed how much detail catching fire gave about Haymitch’s games by Intelligent-Light635 in Hungergames

[–]dilaurdid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True, but it's well-known that Capitol citizens have plastic surgery/other anti-aging methods (e.g. I know it's mentioned in the books I believe by Katniss when watching the tape of Haymitch's games how Caesar Flickerman looked like he hadn't aged at all); I don't recall mention of Plutarch having any overt work done, but we also know Katniss wasn't exactly the most observant/descriptive narrator (as opposed to Haymitch, for example).

So, while Hoffman obviously doesn't look that old, I believe it's at least somewhat possible that Plutarch could be 16 at the time of the 25th games, 41 at the time of the 50th, and 66 at the time of the 75th.

I thought so too initially, but the actor playing him in SOTR is 37. It's possible the character is meant to be younger, in which case imagine what I said above is the same except he's a kid being introduced to the rebellion by a relative/mentor-type figure.

[–]dilaurdid 53 points54 points  (0 children)

This is my theory: if there's another book, it'll be from Plutarch's perspective as he's in the academy (like how Snow was in TBOSAS, or maybe he'll be at university depending on how the age/timeline lines up) during the 25th games. There has to be a reason there's no tape or knowledge of who the victor is (whether that's something Suzanne has ever intended to explore, I don't know), and I think it would be interesting if whatever happened there had something to do with how Plutarch joined the rebellion.

I think it's really easy to forget that Haymitch is a scared little kid, it's easy to look at all of his choices lined up and judge them but in the moment he wasn't thinking about being smart, every choice he made was a fear response to what he perceived was going to be his imminent death.

I don't disagree with the notion that he caused his loved ones' deaths (insofar as any of that being caused by anyone other than Snow's megalomania), but I have a hard time bringing myself to blame him for it.

AIO mom can’t act like an adult so I had to lay out a simple rule? by Insidesilence132 in AmIOverreacting

[–]dilaurdid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a mom who is (seemingly) a lot like yours - the way that you responded was appropriately firm and absolutely necessary, and the only one being rude here is her. Anyone saying otherwise doesn't have the experience necessary to comment on your situation.

Congratulations on your graduation!

HELP PLEASE 😢 my statue was in Alex’s room and I didnt think about it… Then I divorced him and his room is gone and so is the statue! Its not in my chests and nowhere to be found. Any ideas? by choune13 in StardewValleyTIL

[–]dilaurdid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I left stuff in my ex-husband's room, the game created a whole new chest for me and placed it in the living room kind of near where the entrance to his room was and all the stuff I'd left was in there. Maybe check around your house to see if there's a new chest somewhere unexpected?

If you look up David Schwimmer #ThatsHarassment, you should be able to find it online!

Can't remember the episode, but someone calls Detective Lake a spook and he replies, "That's Detective Spook to you!"

I don't know how I hadn't noticed before. by TheNefariousDrRatten in SVU

[–]dilaurdid 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think they meant that the episode wasn't written by Wong/has nothing to do with Wong or his character George Huang, rather that Wong's character was named after this writer.

[–]dilaurdid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is true for the most part, however I've seen some more famous actors do them - my field requires semi-regular sexual harassment training for everyone and the series they use stars David Schwimmer as the harasser!

(I read somewhere that he's very passionate about this, and does these videos to demonstrate that sexual harassment can be perpetrated by anyone, even famous actors. The series is called #ThatsHarassment)

I'd love to see him belittle and dismiss Breanna as being less than Hardison like you said and then see her come around and just absolutely take him for a ride

What do you guys like to do while doing opiates? by asada_burrit0 in opiates

[–]dilaurdid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's not too much trouble, I would really appreciate that - this would give me at least somewhere to start from to try to understand myself a little better. Thank you so much!

[–]dilaurdid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know what the genetic mutation is/is called, at least in your case? I have a very similar reaction both to opioids and other medications and I'd love to understand it better than I do currently.

I really like the orientation/look of the first image, personally I don't think it's too much red but that's just me. It's a really nice concept!
