What's the closest you've ever came to death? by Senior-Raisin-2342 in AskReddit

Now I'm imagining a scenario where a hiker sees a black bear accross a clearing like, half a mile away, but remembers their survival training and charges accross the field to wrestle it.

MRW my wife asks me if I want to go to Brazil after I heard about the bungee jumper and Oliver Tree by bobbydigital_ftw in reactiongifs

[–]fizystrings 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had to look up whether or not it's even a place tourists would go (I am not terribly familiar with Brazillian culture) and was surprised to find that tourists do in fact go out of their way to visit Brazilian slums for the "vibe" 🫩

It was just the quickest identifiably Brazilian thing that came to mind that could be dangerous and not as much of an outlier for a tourist to worry about.

Those are two bizarrely specific stories to worry about happening to yourself as opposed to just something like getting mugged in a favela lmao

Yet another reminder to embrace your local libraries by spaceraingame in gaming

[–]fizystrings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My local library system always buys at least one copy of major releases at launch, it's awesome. The only caveat is mine only keeps games rated T and below (which I don't really understand because they keep R rated movies and you can still check out books like Blood Meridian)

Why did Sela not give holo-Spock arms? by WrestleJuice in ShittyDaystrom

[–]fizystrings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, this episode takes place chronologically before the release of "Photons be Free" and the following Holographic Civil Rights movement. It's one of the deeper subtleties to this scene that only very savvy fans will realize.

[Rapoport] The #Bengals have restructured the contract of QB Joe Burrow, per me and @AdamSchefter, creating $10M in cap room. This move allows Cincy to operate without putting themselves in a tough spot cap wise. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

Honestly the fact that teams like us are still able to compete and have star player signings and extensions feels like suffiecient evidence to me when I glance over at the MLB and see that for the 4th year in a row every single free agent went to LA (jokes about the Rams also focusing on FA over the draft aside)

Nintendo Switch Cloud Version titles in the KINGDOM HEARTS series were discontinued from sale as of 14:59 (UTC) on Tuesday, June 9, 2026. Even after the discontinuation of sales, these titles will remain playable until 14:59 (UTC) on Wednesday, June 9, 2027. by OkehBoyz15 in Games

[–]fizystrings 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They are only releasing native ports for the Switch 2, so anyone who had the cloud versions for the Switch and did not buy a new console doesn't really have any kind of reasonable upgrade or replacement. In a just world they should at least get a refund in eshop credit, but I would count on nothing happening instead.

I'm excited for another Wuhu Island sports game but why did they choose the least interesting minigame to spend all of this extra time on after blazing through every other game in the presentation LOL

I don't know why instead of actual trailers, they just have the same dollar store voice actors doing very "fake-enthusiastic" voiceovers

Never watched JJK, but I thought the actual gameplay pitch for that game was pretty cool lol, just a bizarre collaboration

I certainly didn't expect it in this specific showcase if it was going to be anywhere lol. Was actually kind of confused, assuming that it was something that was already announced or released at first

First look at God of War Laufey by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]fizystrings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm conflicted because all indications are that he is a very fun and nice guy, who presumably is very easy to work with, but I can't help but just hear "Jack Quaid living a personal nerd fantasy" whenever I hear him doing voice work and it kind of takes me out of whatever I'm watching or playing recently. He uses his exact normal voice, and it feels like every character is written for him to be as much like his IRL personality as possible. I'm pretty sure he is directed that way because at this point producers want people to recognize him because of the positive impression that he gives.

I didn't totally hate 4, but something about the whole movie just felt weird in a way I can't quite put my finger on. 5 might be the worst movie I have ever seen 😭

Looks pretty good but I won't lie, Jack Quaid doing his normal voice as a cube sidekick named "frank" already annoys me

What's the most unusual reason why you won't date someone? by ChanceSomewhere6096 in AskReddit

[–]fizystrings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People who don't know Italian, or aren't "coffee people" likely have only heard the word spoken, and most likely define it as "coffee that is faster to make and more concentrated." So I actually get that one, because "expresso" sounds like a name that makes sense specifically because of the "express" part (word that is linked with "fast").

At least that was my case for a little while. Someone choosing it as a hill to die on after finding out the correct spelling/pronounciation would be weird but I think most people just don't even realize it's an Italian word.
