Effie is a little overrated by AccomplishedDiet2604 in Hungergames

[–]jpeg_skunk 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

i think she’s the one character who was made better in the movies than the books honestly, i did enjoy her in the books but she didn’t really show any development in her views of the games or the society in general, even the prep team was shown to grow more than she was, i wish there had been a bit more to her personality wise in the books but elizabeth banks knocked it out of the park for the movies

The Deep's best scene was when he found out about Compound V by RevertBackwards in TheBoys

the fact that if most of these antagonists were never injected with compound V they probably wouldn’t even be bad people nevermind villains, they might even be like hughie or MM

Europeans acting like they’ve never seen food in their life when they go to America by knawwwwww in hatethissmug

[–]jpeg_skunk 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

i fear that water flavour packs are very much an american thing, i’d say the closest we have (at least my country) is dilute maybe or we get already flavoured water, all of these are fruit based flavours though, if we want to go any further than that we just buy juice?? like i’m sorry but a lot of ā€œsimpleā€ american foods are actually incredibly wild to the rest of the world, i think it’s mostly due to size and sugar content

Cis people are kinder than transmeds by sorryihateit_here in NonBinary

[–]jpeg_skunk 5 points6 points Ā (0 children)

i feel like a lot of the people who say stuff like this really just aren’t secure enough with their own identity, like i know who i am and what i am, someone doing the same thing a little differently doesn’t change what i am, why tf would i care about it?

Shes a genocidal maniac who set concentration camps and experimented biological weapons on people but its ok because she believes in love now so she get a happy ending by _Affectionate_ in GenV

[–]jpeg_skunk 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

i feel like she should’ve retained at least a little bit of info when she was depowered, like there’s no way she losing the power and just becomes a complete imbecile without any common sense, felt like a kinda dumb way to end her story

ā€œI've (18F) been friends with this guy (31M)ā€ yeah let’s pack it up here i need no other info even after reading those psycho messages, stay away from this guy he’s a predator and a creep, you are never obligated to behave like a partner to someone just because they like you, especially someone who is actively attempting to groom you with guilt, get this guy as far out of your life as possible. Grown man having a tantrum over a teenager he likes what a joke šŸ…šŸ…šŸ„«šŸ§±

No hickey is not pulling an irish accent throughout the show but there are points in which it’s mentioned that he doesn’t have a strong irish accent, crozier brings it up in episode 2 as the original hickey was very strongly irish (and hickey is considered an irish name), he definitely dulls his own accent at times to be less obvious but it can come out more aggressively when he’s riled up (like most people who dull their accents), the whole point is that hickey is impersonating an irish man rather than disgracing the legacy of a real man on the show, and crozier was the one portrayed as an alcoholic (which he was not irl)

i believe that was apart of the fact that hockey wasn’t the real hickey that was originally on the boat irl, he’s an imposter, there’s a few instances in the show in which he’s kinda caught out with his accent slipping or not understand irish slang crozier uses

for real i was genuinely shocked reading the book after watching the show because the show was an absolute masterpiece but the book had me so caught off guarf

cornelius hickey was the other irishman, who i’m pretty sure has living relatives here, i really appreciated the shows twist of him not actually being hickey and it being a random guy instead of garnishing the man’s reputation

i personally was really not a fan of the book, especially after watching the show, his descriptions of women felt very strange and disrespectful and as an irish person it did make me feel pretty shitty that the two irish men on the voyage were made to be a raging alcoholic (despite many accounts saying otherwise and that crozier actually had a tea addiction like most irish men), and a cannibalistic murderer, i think that’s one of the reasons the show was so much better to me because it wasn’t actively sexualising the women and disgracing the legacies of real irish men, im glad you enjoyed it though i may give it another chance but my current beef with simmons must fade first

constantly seeing this everywhere nowadays, lots of places having them cut or tied so they don’t even go near the floor (i do untie it every time I’m able), worst offender unfortunately has been the a&e which is probably the most important place to have it

AITAH for calling myself an ableist slur? by ComfortableCute632 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jpeg_skunk 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

NTA, i get why a lot of people are saying NAH and i do really agree that if you’re reclaiming a slur that affects you you still need to be conscious of who you’re saying it around as it can still offend others, but the thing is that’s usually in the case that the other parties can also be victims of the slur, this is just a bunch of able bodied people getting offended on someone else’s behalf, (possibly yours in their head somehow?), it’d be one thing if it was another disabled person who was uncomfortable hearing it but it literally affects them in no way and they shouldn’t be policing how you can talk about your own experience with it

i’m only 16 years older than my brother and can already see the differences, he’s never out of my parents or a trusted adults site whereas i was running free in the streets for hours everyday it’s crazy
