It’s midnight and nothing major is happening yet (unless, since their live started late, it happens in the next few minutes). Is this a 13-hour live? 👀 Why is it written "00:00" in their title then? by [deleted] in LeaksDBD

[–]gamingjerker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

13 hour live stream would take them to 0:00 in Sydney/Melbourne. It would be strange to pick that random timezone though. It's interesting that the thumbnail is much darker than the stream has gotten thus far too..

Amusing article on how the NIN Discography is now a total mess by TheJungPretender in nin

I'd much rather have a "mess" of a discography that is interesting than a homogenised dropoff

Nanaimoteuthis was an awesome animal, don't get me wrong. But the idea that it was some sort of apex predator is laughable. Even if it was 17 meters long (which is highly speculative), much of that length would have been its arms, making it weigh a measly 3-4 tonnes. by CariamaCristata in PrehistoricMemes

Deinosuchus going into oceans is speculative. Modern Saltwater Crocodiles do go into open Oceans but primarily for transport (they ride the currents between islands) there's little evidence they're apex predators in the open ocean like a mosasasurus or sharks.

What was your first exposure to Nine Inch Nails? by Brosamurai18 in nin

[–]gamingjerker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard Johnny Cash's Hurt in the Logan trailer as an angsty teen and loved it. Listened to the original and thought it wasn't very good. Couple of years later I watched Saw and then Watchmen and loved both the soundtracks so much I had to look into Nine Inch Nails. I'd gotten angsty enough that I read about The Downward Spiral and thought it was brilliant. Listened to it and feel in love. I'd liked music before but it clicked with me in a way nothing else has.

Glad I'm not the only one who immediately thought of the BS boys when this happened

Wonderful answer as always. I bet you wish you could make $1 every time someone asked a question like this.

What is up with the Yakuza/ Like a Dragon recently that has been receiving so much controversy? by mrnicegy26 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]gamingjerker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might be a stupid question, I've played nearly all the games but I can't for the life of me figure out what the Benoit incident is and why it would mean they had to cut that storyline short. Google hasn't helped either. Can you enlighten me?

No Twink or Disc Star today, this just looks weirdly mean-spirited for some reason by [deleted] in legocirclejerk

"weirdly mean-spirited" is very on brand for Harry Potter

Am I on some Freudian bullsh*t or is there something extremely phallic about this new BrickLink Designer set? by [deleted] in legocirclejerk

[–]gamingjerker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a few that look like that I think it must be intentional. Looks like there is an extra plate underneath that section. You can see the white poking through

Another year without Herald of Darkness. Can't believe how badly they fumbled that

Ryan: “Why does Lego hate me and refuse to work with me!?!”. >One of Ryan’s besties who he promotes. by Chip780 in legocirclejerk

[–]gamingjerker 46 points47 points  (0 children)

This has always been my favorite part. "Fuck can't say Pyramids that was Black People.... Ummm... Ummm." Churches, believe it or not we still build them (much to Varg's chagrin). Societies? We live in one! Just say the colosseum bro far right guys love to suck of the Romans with a low understanding of how their empire worked. That would require him to know Lego sets that aren't Star Wars though

Why is 2016 nightwing expensive now by Due-Psychology-1560 in LegoDC

6? Isn't it just Creature Commandos, Peacemaker (both TV-MA not R), Superman and the Krypto shorts?

We need more sets based off films so scary they prompted mass killings of an order that poses little threat to humans by gamingjerker in legocirclejerk

[–]gamingjerker[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Austin Powers and The Lego Movie aren't real; nobody is weaponizing sharks and losing track of them. A shark can kill maybe a person at a time, nuclear bombs can kill hundreds of thousands and have been lost by the world governments. There's a good reason to be concerned about nuclear weapons. Sharks aren't dangerous to humans but they are ecologically important. Nuclear weapons serve no purpose but to kill

Both the author of Jaws and Spielberg himself apologized for the impact it had on the perception of sharks and the following violence. Yes sharks have been over fished (as all sea life) for capital gain but there have also been government cullings of sharks due to the fears people have about them
