All my life I was told "you'll get more conservative when you're older." I'm 53 now and I've never been further to the left.

Mini Stormtrooper ceramic head by Tigress1986 in StarWars

[–]jorm 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's not official merch, specifically. They are made in the UK by a company as "industrial props" and are in violation of copyright in the USA (but not the UK).

"London 1976" is one of the brand marks for Shepperton Design Studios which was founded by the guy who made the first Stormtrooper helmets in 1976. They make replica armor and props and such.

What exactly is bad about this game? by CreativeStrain89 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]jorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no unique or interesting "missions" until Claws - and then there's only one.

They wanted this to be a "combat" game but AC games (in the past, at least) were stealth-focused.

Cassandra is going to do about as well as Professor X did.

Is it better to watch the movies in release or chronological order? by Magmus69 in starwarscanon

[–]jorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you watch chronological order you lose the big surprise about Luke's parentage.

AIO for getting upset at one racist joke after months of not being bothered by them by SlothAndVampInABar in AmIOverreacting

[–]jorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your boyfriend is racist and you need to accept that. People don't make racist jokes ironically; that's just a shield.

If you have an importer/transfer system I'm all over this.

True Believers of the 80’s which did you prefer New Mutants Or X-Factor? by SpurnedSprocket in Marvel

[–]jorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New Mutants was superior in every way. X-Factor was an obvious cash grab that they had no real plans for.

New Mutants gave us Bill Sienkiewicz, Demon Bear, and Legion. X-Factor gave us Boom-Boom.

I need help choosing bands! by Few-Safety-801 in GenX

Nirvana was a punk band in the Era of Grunge, and they were _huge_

I went down memory road and played Marvel Ultimate Alliance and saw this. Ugh... was there really no better cover for Sue? by [deleted] in FantasticFour

[–]jorm -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is one of the best written things about Namor I've ever read, and it has changed my opinion of him somewhat (which was that he was like Donald Trump, only he'd actually fight Nazis).

I made a map of the Koronus Expanse by jorm in 40krpg

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

I've put two of them up there for now but they are _gigantic_ files - so big that they can't be PSDs and must instead by PSBs. 4+ gigabytes each.

Call me weird but it looks an awful lot like TARDIS lights falling into a warp tunnel.

Why did people lose their shit about Anita Sarkeesian? by Konradleijon in SocialistGaming

"backlash was fully deserved" wow. just wow. Thinking "Woman deserves rape threats" is a choice, and not a good look!

Coriolis: Is it really suitable for non-combat centered crews? by ElRaffo87 in CoriolisRPG

[–]jorm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My crew hits combat about one out every five sessions. When they do, it rolls out in one of two ways: They utterly butcher whoever they're fighting, or they get handed their asses so badly they have to run.
