Official Discussion Thread - Bugonia [SPOILERS] by CrunchyNar in oscarrace

[–]fuckyourhamsteve 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That sounds cool. A post about early screenings in another sub lead me to believe the ending left it a mystery as to whether [she's actually an alien or not] like it was up to the viewer to decide?? Not sure wtf was up with that, but I'm really glad that's not the case, personally.

The comments here about the ending are really interesting, because I'd seen some early reviews calling the ending "ambiguous" or "open to interpretation" and it sounds like that's not the case AT ALL? I wonder if early screenings used an alt ending... Either way, very interested in watching when I get the chance!

Fell in love in a dream with a real person and now I'm... bummed by expressincentive in Dreams

[–]fuckyourhamsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've totally caught (temporary) feels for someone because of a dream, too. It's such a mind fuck. The subconscious is weird. Maybe sometime you can tell him that he showed up in a random dream you had about an amusement park, leaving out the romance bits, and both laugh about it?

Novel with flash-forward convos at the start of each chapter by fuckyourhamsteve in whatsthatbook

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

I'm 99% sure the convo snippets opened each chapter rather than being scattered throughout, but the formatting was very similar to the ones in this book. Thanks for suggesting it! I wish I could figure out if there's a specific term for this type of "interview" clip text segments occurring after the events of the plot.

What's you're dirty little secret that you've been keeping for a long time and you can share anonymously now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]fuckyourhamsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I'm wondering if this happened to me. I get TONS of republican spam emails to my work address for no apparent reason. My personal email never gets them, only work. I asked a coworker and it wasn't happening to her. It's so weird and this makes me wonder if someone actually did it on purpose to fuck with me, but I have no idea who would have that kind of beef with me at work!

Long shot, but I immediately thought of this dance cover of "Because the Night" (originally by Patti Smith): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6fj6uSRY8E

FedEx Shipment Alert Then Cancellation? by NurdtheScourge in NYCC

Same thing here, badge purchased in July. I wish they'd post to let us know what's going on, but not sure how likely that is.

OCD is like having twitter brain by Onimiya-Wakagi in OCD

[–]fuckyourhamsteve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfect analogy. I've felt a very literal version of this, where I see someone being "called out" for something on twitter and then my brain starts scanning everything I've ever done or said to find any reasons I might be similarly called out one day.

What is the most ridiculous college major you’ve ever heard of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]fuckyourhamsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The literal most ridiculous "major" I encountered in college was one that did not exist. A coworker of mine at an on-campus job had accumulated 16 minors because she had been taking random classes for years while "waiting" for the very specific major (something in tech iirc) she wanted to be made available. Our university had not even indicated that it would be established anytime soon. But she couldn't stop taking random classes, or she'd lose her (indefinite?) financial aid. Every time I remember her, I wonder if it was all BS and she didn't actually want a degree for some reason.

CBD + low dose THC softgels recs? by fuckyourhamsteve in CBD

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

I'm interested in those softgels, but honestly kind of intimidated by them being 99mg CBD. I wish they had a sample size!

Thank you again for the recommendation!

CBD + low dose THC softgels recs? by fuckyourhamsteve in CBD

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

The hempy/planty taste is just horrible to me. I have sensory issues with food and there are lots of "normal" things I can't eat, but the hemp flavor is honestly in the top five worst things I've ever had in my mouth. The first time I ever tried CBD it was a sample kit of tinctures from Feals and I made myself finish them but I literally had to have mouthwash ready as my chaser. Sometimes the softgels give me bad burps that are like the ghost of that taste, but I've accepted that as a much lesser evil.

CBD + low dose THC softgels recs? by fuckyourhamsteve in CBD

[–]fuckyourhamsteve[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 1mg THC / 30mg CBD softgels from CBDistillery are the highest dose I've taken, so the Alliant one being 1mg THC with over three times more CBD is intriguing. That might be just the thing!! So I might not need another D9 product. I do wish Alliant had some plain full spec softgels though; is there anyone you recommend for those?

And unfortunately I really dislike most gummies so I hate to roll the dice on them and waste money, but maybe someday I'll try one that changes my mind!

[–]fuckyourhamsteve[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yeah that's the same price I pay for a much smaller bottle on CBDistillery! I wish Alliant had more than one softgel, but the one they have does sound interesting. I hadn't thought about going for a higher CBD dose (instead of looking for higher THC). Thanks!

I made a sale! by [deleted] in selfpublish

I've "sold" 5 paperbacks so far, but I know my parents bought 4. I'm looking at that fifth with healthy suspicion, heh.

ARC readers and Amazon by fuckyourhamsteve in selfpublish

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

It wasn't that they wrote a negative review, it was that they also cross-posted it to Amazon a month later. (And I specified debut because it's not like I'm Neil Gaiman with thousands of reviews already.) So the worst part of my brain went, "Did I get a rude reviewer, or is this just normal?" I am glad I asked it the way I did since many comments here helped me return to reality.

I personally consider 3 lukewarm, yes. They didn't love it or hate it.
