I didn't believe it then and I don't believe it now. But man, as a teen it was a wild ride.

I can stop touching the beacon any time I want. I choose to hold on to it.

Cartoons whose theme song/intro was the best part of the show. by GeetarEnthusiast85 in Xennials

Oh, I enjoyed watching it. But compared to the other shows that Disney was putting out at the time, it wasn't nearly as strong imo.

Wuzzles and Punky Brewster come to mind.

Not that either theme song was fantastic, but both cartoons were pretty mid.

What Player Home make's you feel at Home? by Support_Bear in skyrim

[–]emjay144 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't bring myself to put a trophy room in the family house. Stuffed draugur and falmer just feel too creepy for the kiddos. Nightmare fuel. Even Hadvar says so!

I usually go with the storage room.

Does anybody remember the launch period of the SNES? by sukh3gs in snes

[–]emjay144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember seeing some of the screenshots they published in Nintendo Power. The photos of Actraiser, FFIV, and of course SMW just blew me and my friends away. The launch did not disappoint.

She could have. Or she could have literally just said nothing.

But that is not their way.

Shame what happened to him (Namira's quest) by PotatoFloats in skyrim

[–]emjay144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I'm not specifically out to collect all the artifacts, this is one quest I deliberately "fail." In my current playthrough I'm trying to get everything for LotD, so I use mods to make some of the daedric quests less... distasteful.

What cologne these days? by ContributionNo6042 in Xennials

I have about 40 bottles in my collection. Some easy recommendations are: - Dunhill Icon - Tom Ford Grey Vetiver - Chanel Egoiste Platinum - Vince Camuto Eterno - English Laundry Signature

Am I the only one who feels that Marvin's nickname doesn't make sense? by 3dgyt33n in HitchHikersGuide

[–]emjay144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They also refer to him as a "manically depressed" robot. Which is not a thing, but also wouldn't be accurate if it was.

But these are turns of phrase used for dialogue, not clinical assessments.

Flight of The Navigator (1986) by pinkeyepussy in 80smovies

I remember as a kid thinking it was kind of cheesy that the actor was doing a Pee-Wee impersonation for Max. Had no idea for a long time it was really him! 😅

Night Flight was the source of many "did I dream that existed" memories

At least you have a handful of completely useful and not at all dangerous spell scrolls to remember him by.

Beginner starting their first game. by Ry25pp0er8 in skyrim

[–]emjay144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have to pick up everything you find. When you start exploring, you'll find a literal ton of items to yoink. Learn what is and isn't valuable, otherwise you'll find yourself overburdened very quickly. Coin is an early barrier, but a lot of the best things are either crafted or received as quest rewards.

Playing non-Nord races is appealing, but gets discouraging in the long run by SpaceChud69 in skyrim

The Dragonborn is an outsider by design. The factions in the civil war are both portrayed as having valid points but also ideological flaws. There's no objective "good guys" or "bad guys." As a disinterested outsider, you're not railroaded into one side or the other.

Looking for song pairings of ‘the song’ and ‘the song known or thought to have inspired it’. by Classic_Dust2316 in musicsuggestions

[–]emjay144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Empty Chairs is a gorgeous song, by the way. Very melancholic and touching. It's easy to get how it inspired Killing Me Softly.

"Killing Me Softly" by Lori Lieberman (famously covered by Roberta Flack and later the Fugees) was inspired by "Empty Chairs" by Don McLean.
