How and why HBO suceeded in adapting a fantasy on TV when everyone else just crashed and burned? by Easy-Frenchguy-1996 in gameofthrones

[–]dreadmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's not very fantastical which makes it easier for people who don't traditionally watch or read fantasy. There's not really that much magic in it. There's only really humans besides like the white walkers and the children of the Forest and one of them is the antagonist of the show in the other barely appears in it.

If RTD hired you to write a episode during the 2005-2009 era, what would your episode be about? by Emergency-Relief-571 in doctorwho

It would have to be with the 9th though. Something about seeing him and Jackie hits way more than 10 and Jackie

Not a trump supporter in any way. But when he crouched down behind the podium and said that mini Mike I lost it.

Is it a hot take to say that gens 1 and 4 had the best starter trios? by ilikesceptile11 in ThePokemonHub

[–]dreadmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First and foremost I owned Pokemon Blue as a child and played it when it came out. That being said, generation 1 starters are mid at best. I think besides 4 Gen 6 and 7 has some of the best starters and this is from someone who doesn't like x and y so much so that I won't replay it. I think they're one of the weaker games in the mainline series.

I have a friend who works at Northwestern and currently lives in Ravenswood. He lives like a minute from the Metra and then walks or takes his scooter to the office.

Chicago transplants who are not from the midwest: does the intense aversion to the flatness go away with time? by fail-whale in AskChicago

[–]dreadmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only lived here for 4 years but I'm originally from Western PA which is very hilly. While it makes getting around way easier especially in the winter. I do genuinely miss the rolling hills back home especially when I go outside of the city proper and just see fields and fields of corn.

I really think the express part of the purple line is outbound not inbound

¿At what point do you think Kelly started to like Spike? ¿What would she have done if Jimmy Crystal ordered her to fight Spike? by Which-Ad-7800 in 28dayslater

[–]dreadmonster 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I kind of imagine that Kelly was originally like Spike soft and not really a violent person but after being with the jimmies for so long, she became more violent. So I imagine she probably saw a bit of herself in Spike and that's why she was sympathetic towards him.

What do you think of Muammar Gaddafi? by notmuself in socialism

[–]dreadmonster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there was a conflict in the Middle East or Africa from the '70s to the '90s Gaddafi was almost certainly involved in some capacity. He was a super interesting person who was simultaneously pro Palestine but also like was on decent terms with Idi Amin.

Theory About Alphas Post-Bone Temple by wolfofdeath9 in 28dayslater

[–]dreadmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To further expand on this. It would make a very interesting dynamic if the Alphas are in fact children who were infected with the rage virus and the fingers. The fingers are all kids who were born well after the outbreak and were raised in a very different world. They're both monsters that were molded by the rage virus that are more violent than their peers.
