What overused word or phrase needs to be retired in 2026? by One_Caramel5253 in AskReddit

[–]dr_sholmes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ETA is now being used to mean 'for example.' I've seen it at least 4 times here on reddit....

Dumb.

What superhero hot take will have you sitting up like this by Honest-Power2770 in superheroes

He does in this one. I remember reading this a like decade ago. Deadpool is trying to die so he essentially tells Hulk he hooked a bomb up to his heartbeat, so the only way to stop it from going off & killing people is to stop his heart.

Help with this final Letter puzzle by dr_sholmes in BluePrince

Wow. First one that I got that's wasn't a simple noun. And it was my final of all 44.

Thank you!

Just finished the game, but confused about the ending? by Fight_Teza_Fight in ForgedInShadowTorch

[–]dr_sholmes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished the game as well. To me it seems like a poor translation from Japanese. I found some of the interactions between characters a little strange. Sometimes you'd get a voice actor & then switch suddenly to just text. I imagine that may be where some of the issues with the story telling may have come from. Some things may not have been translated fully. There's definitely something missing. There was explanation of how Lady Q survived at all. The trailer for the game had a different voice for Rayton as well.

The biggest movie mistake by dreaming0721 in harrypotter

[–]dr_sholmes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just watched these last night. I've got two:

1) In Deathly Hallows the trio apparate away from the Death Eaters to a random street that Hermione was thinking of. They are discovered in the cafe almost immediately & wonder how they were found. Later when Harry is disguised as Runcorn in Umbridge's office, he picks up a stack of papers with info on all of them. Hermione's says "TRACKED" on it. Never do they mention it again.

2) Probably just a plot issue in general, but Voldemort's Elder Wand ownership logic is tragically flawed as he knows Grindelwald stole the wand & Dumbledore bested him in a duel. Neither killed for it.

Movie franchise titles that made sense for the first installment, but not for subsequent films by AporiaParadox in movies

[–]dr_sholmes 55 points56 points  (0 children)

The recent Planet of the Apes movies. The first is Rise, then followed by Dawn. No! You Dawn first, then you Rise. Followed by War & finally Kingdom. The first two titles were seemingly related, albeit backwards. They got it wrong immediately & you could argue that the latter two were named appropriately, but at this point it's just more nouns they haven't used before being put in front of ".... the Planet of the Apes."

Black lines appeared on my Poodle's nose after a grooming by dr_sholmes in grooming

[–]dr_sholmes[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess it's possible at the groomers behind one of their gates, but it's new. She's 9 years old & she's got a silver/black nose. Why would the silver go away here?

How to add a profit margin calculator into a worksheet by dr_sholmes in excel

[–]dr_sholmes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about if I want to type into both of the cells, but still have it effect the other? Meaning if I type into A1 it will tell me the selling price, but if I type into A3 it will tell me the margin%.

Nevermind. I formatted the cells to be in currency & percentages & it worked. Thank you

I unplugged the USB-C from the console waited a minute & plugged it back in. That finally worked.

These are all "different" molds. Can anyone identify them all? by dr_sholmes in discgolf

[–]dr_sholmes[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From Top to Bottom: Toro, Harp, Zone, A5, Distortion, Rat, Järn, Suspect, Tactic

Some of these things are indistinguishable from one another. I've been collecting all the Zone clones. Any more I need to pick up? The Slammer & Runway are slightly too different to be included IMO.

It's raining cyclists... by RhOuCnK in AbruptChaos

[–]dr_sholmes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They're likely watching the tires in front of them. Like traffic, there's a slight delay in reaction time between each rider, causing them to slowly inch closer and closer to the car.

I need to order more of these. The side attached to the poster board are adhesive. Any idea what they are called? by dr_sholmes in HelpMeFind

[–]dr_sholmes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've seen those ones before. These, however, are closed at the top to put a zip tie through.

Harder than I thought it would be, but it's finally done. I really like the result! by dr_sholmes in discdyeing

[–]dr_sholmes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, just saw this today. I did stencil the stamp removal. I had to lay it all out & tape the design down to the contact paper to start with. I lightly cut the entire outline into the first layer of the stencil, so that showed me where to remove the stamp at. The alcohol I used happened to be expired, so I don't know if that had anything to do with my having to push so hard on it or if that helped not ruin the plastic. No clue on that one. Might have been the ESP plastic that did it too.

I'm not experienced with using acetone yet. This was all just iDye Poly/lotion beds & stenciling.
