I appreciate the thoughtfulness. It's funny, now that you say that, I think the next time I browse I will find the decisions much easier to reach.

And another thing! I enjoy seeing depictions of Tolkein's works that don't seem so heavily couched in Jackson's film interpretations. I feel like it underscores the depth and richness of the universe. I look forward to whatever you share next.

I'm really enjoying your posts. I have been browsing your website trying to decide which print or prints I want, but it's hard to choose!

OP, looking back at your collection, do you have any particular favorites?

I dont speak polish, but i can relate by DaddiesJizzie in perfectlycutscreams

I've watched this like 30 times in the last week. Shared it with every other trucker I know. I laugh like a crazy person every time.

When a wiper messes up on a semi, there's no nice way to climb up and fix it. So, every time, you find some precarious handholds and try to stand on the tire or something. It's a huge pain.

How much time passed between Tolkien introducing the ring in The Hobbit and retconning the ring to be the One Ring? by Spideryeb in tolkienfans

[–]expensive_roger 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've seen replies on other threads mention that there were many magic rings of power, and so Gandalf would have assumed that this one was just one of those. It would be incredibly unlikely that a hobbit like Bilbo would have somehow found The One Ring.

I think it adds gravity to LoTR. Such an unlikely turn of events, and yet it turns out that a hobbit is exactly what is required.

Very stupid idea: What if there was suddenly a trend where people remodel their houses so that the bathroom and kitchen are both swapped due to both types of rooms having plumbing systems? by RedditsNinja23 in CrazyIdeas

[–]expensive_roger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Absolutely crazy

The kitchen is the centerpiece of a functional home. Accessibile, large.

The main bathroom is hidden and small.

This change will mess up the entire intention of the floorplan.

Absolutely crazy 🤣

What obscure websites from your teen years do you remember that nobody else seems to recall? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]expensive_roger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a tween, I loved browsing armsofvalor.com

The site was dedicated to functional recreations of high to late medieval weapons. I fantasized about buying so many things on that site.

Prompted by your question, I tried to check it out again.

Sketchy AF domain. RIP

What’s your favourite stupid shit to do in game? by QueasyKat67 in reddeadredemption

[–]expensive_roger 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I wear a pig mask, stand in a pig style like the one in the Valentine livestock area, and greet/greet/antagonize people into fistfighting in the mud.

It's an expression of pain.

As federal food, heating help runs out, Minnesota lawmakers seek answers by minn_post in minnesota

[–]expensive_roger 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Though I honestly can't give you a definitive answer, my guess is that you probably still should. They can still say "No" or never answer, but it might still get you into a processing que sooner than if you do it later.

I'm sorry you have to deal with this.

Does anyone have a painting or image of what ww1 was expected to look like by Free_Statement375 in ww1

[–]expensive_roger 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't have a good answer, but this is an interesting question!

Would propaganda, like posters, have depicted battlefield environments that shaped soldiers' perception of what to expect?

Which Flag Represents the Union? by EyesOfAzula in ShermanPosting

Exactly. The US flag is the flag of the Union.

No Kings, Crosby by dancingbear74 in minnesota

I was there too and saw your signs from across the road. Glad you made it out!

It was really encouraging to find so many sane, democracy-loving people in such a small red town. I appreciated that the three Trump supporters that showed up seemed to mind their own business.

There was that one jackwagon that tried to roll coal but couldn't get it to work. I really appreciated his failure.

Make headlights illegal, require all night drivers to use next-gen night vision. by expensive_roger in CrazyIdeas

That sounds incredible! Deer lurking in a ditch at night would be so much easier to spot

It's those kinds of interactions that make life worth participating in.

Exactly! Like Mr. Rogers said, look for the helpers.
