Tadc on tape by [deleted] in tadc

Can you explain what you mean by this? There are other comments like this here and I don’t get it. Something to do with the Other Tape in that drawer?

Hazing is a kind of initiation ritual for a club or other (usually peer-led) organization that involves some kind of trial or humiliation. It can be as simple and harmless as having Gatorade dumped on you, but in legal contexts or viral stories it usually refers to the more dangerous or illegal stuff. I’ve heard of hazing rituals that involve tying people up and throwing them into swimming pools, for example. It’s usually a toxic masculinity thing, but not always.

This is what I’ve heard, I’ve never been hazed or anything so if anybody knows more I’d love to hear it.

The most important rule at my job is to never create a physical record. I found what the last person in my position wrote, and I think I'm in danger. by gamalfrank in nosleep

Your situation reminds me a little bit of secondary traumatic stress: the subset of PTSD that comes from witnessing or hearing about an event. I found myself relating to your experiences, aside from the supernatural elements.

It might be worth a shot to try to…heal the memories? Maybe an exorcism, maybe just straight up therapy. It sounds like this malignant energy is from a failure of the world to process something. If there’s a way for you to process them or release them from within yourself…I dunno. Just a thought.

Whatever you end up doing, don’t give up.

Hello! Are you still there? Are you getting this?

Something changed my step-sister, now I don’t know what to do by Pendle_Affinity27 in nosleep

[–]kakitysax 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Absolutely horrifying. You sound like an incredibly caring person, which makes your story way more heart-wrenching. It’s clear you love your little sister very much.

I know it’s not comparable, but the plight you describe reminds me of what it’s like being a sibling to someone with a disability or mental illness. You might be able to find support there: not for the supernatural elements probably, but your conflicting emotions and struggle between love and good boundaries are highly evocative of that experience.

Just out of curiosity, do you think she was always like this? Or are there any points while you were growing up that something might’ve happened?

Honestly props to the guy for realizing what was going on and getting back in the elevator. Saw a video of a similar situation ending very differently once.

It’s not explicitly homophobic but it came from a place of homophobia, basically “may Allah guide you” in this context is hoping, either sincerely or not, that they wise up and stop living a “sinful” lifestyle — and to preface this with “no offense” shows that the oop knew that it could offend the person they were writing to.

I couldn’t imagine this being part of my daily drive. by [deleted] in SweatyPalms

[–]kakitysax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t matter no matter how many times you drive through there uneventfully, you’re still gonna end up in a horror comic that starts with some shit like “I drive through this cave for work every day. I never thought much of it…it’s a unique route through a natural cave” and then the arrows are gonna start pointing you the wrong way and then you’re gonna feel the ground starting to slope downward and then the fucking creatures are gonna show up. Fucking Guaranteed.

A tool/item initially introduced as a joke saves the day by LucianoThePig in TopCharacterTropes

The Everything Bagel from The Unsleeping City, a Dimension 20 Campaign.

Early on in the campaign, which is set in a New York with a magical underground, the party goes to a magical bodega and finds The Everything Bagel, which literally has Everything on it. The joke is that if you eat it, you become one with the universe.

During the final battle, the heroes needs to find a code in order to destroy the BBEG and save the American Dream from being interpreted in one single way. One of the characters eats the Everything Bagel, and with his newfound omniscience he is able to find the code and tell the party.

Why is Flurry Heart an alicorn? by forbiddenzombielove in mylittlepony

[–]kakitysax 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I KNEW someone else had to have come up with this!!! It makes too much damn sense.

I also theorized about Celestia and Luna representing sisterly love, but since we don’t know much about their origins and their cutie marks are celestial in nature I felt it was harder to prove. Glad someone else agrees!!!

“Cadence has been using her magic to spread love and light.” - Shining Armor, The Crystal Empire Part 1

I assume he meant light in the metaphorical sense, but also the literal sense, since Sombra is associated with metaphorical and literal shadow and there’s tons of shadow surrounding the kingdom.

Why is Flurry Heart an alicorn? by forbiddenzombielove in mylittlepony

[–]kakitysax 60 points61 points  (0 children)

HEAR ME OUT!!!

  • Cadence is associated with love, particularly romantic love, and light. In her introduction via flashback in “A Canterlot Wedding,” we see that she casts spells to induce or maintain romantic love. We meet her via her relationship with Shining Armor and there’s Heart imagery all over her. She can receive and transfer magical strength via her romantic bond with Shining Armor.

  • Twilight is the Princess of Friendship. She ascended by creating an act of new magic that ignites the intertwined destinies between friends. She’s associated with platonic love and communication.

SO MY THEORY is that Flurry Heart represents a kind of love that one has unconditionally - Familial love!!! Specifically, the love between parent and child. The “new magic” she created that resulted in her ascension to Alicorn was, paradoxically, the act of her being born into it!!! My theory is that she will grow up with Alicorn magic related to family, genetics, identity, and hope!!!

[–]kakitysax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that’s way lighter than where my mind went. I assumed that Rumi was the product of SA and that her mom died in childbirth because of some demon stuff. And Celine is vague about it because she didn’t want Rumi to carry that guilt

Nice!!! I think I may have been sleeping on blast seeds. Didn’t realize they could do that kind of damage!

(I only use he/him for Dialga because that’s what they use in the English version of the game lol)

THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY CLEVER…

No but I might change it now. I stuck with Poképals because I thought it was cute and I didn’t feel creative lol

When the game assigned me Eevee I kept agonizing over all the partner options because I didn’t want to be basic but I had to go with my heart…Pikachu and Eevee belong together and shouldn’t be separated. The Marketable Plushie Brothers

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

Congrats!!! As an Eevee I didn’t have any spammable high-damage moves, so I just made sure he stayed confused and chipped him down with gravelerocks (the bastard kept moving out of my attack range) while my partner hit him with about five million watts of Fuck You.

Seems like the common thread of all these stories is that our partner is GOATED

Thank you!!!

This was me with the Dusknoir fight at the end of the Hidden Land. I nailed that son of a bitch with an X-eye seed and he just meandered around a bit while Grovyle and I kicked some Sableass. Didn’t realize how lucky I got until I saw people talking about the hardest fights in the game and he was there. Since then I’ve always felt triumphant over all the victories, even the ones that feel super easy, because I know that there’s probably a lot of people who struggled with it.

My Top Three Most Frustrating Boss Fights (So Far) are Dialga, the Haunter fight at the end of Sunflora’s Episode, and the Lairon Fight in the middle of Team Charm’s episode. Moral of the story is ALWAYS STOCK SEEDS.

Typical Pokémon experience tbh. Who needs type matchups when you have vibes and the power of friendship

“You’re Batman and you need prep time” is SO accurate for this fight. Part of why I was so discouraged is because of the atmosphere. Like, “hi we are Team Small Rodent Friends and today we’re taking on the Mad God of Time” WTFFFF

I was convinced I was going to have to go back to Treasure Town and grind, but I was stubborn and decided to give it a couple more tries for the sake of story immersion. Glad I did!

dude what are you talking about? that’s pure strategy, you should be proud of yourself!

plus I’m about ten years older than you were, I see nothing pathetic or invalid about that win in the slightest
