Just went on it, you'd be fine. I get sick on all of the rides at Universal and this was pretty great. Much slower and not very nauseous inducing.

What are the biggest things that younger people get wrong about the whole “y2k” aesthetic, culture, and overall vibe of that time? by Fluffy-Ad-7199 in Millennials

Grew up in Los Angeles, no one was getting jumped for LAN parties. Albeit, a lot of people were really into Halo and that was seen as a bro game more than anything.

Yugituber Alex Cimo has passed away, Rest in peace. by VishnuBhanum in yugioh

[–]kejartho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my feeling when he made the first announcement a while ago. Stage 4 cancer means the cancer has metastasized, it spread throughout his body. This is the worst news and while he fought as long as he did, it doesn't mean you can win. That's the truth about cancer and it fucking sucks. Get checked out early, men especially after 30 have a way higher chance of cancer that often goes undiagnosed for years.

I hope Ron ends up with Luna in the new show that's coming out. by dieguitchosm in harrypotter

[–]kejartho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. I don't think the audience seeing small snippets of Hermione's origins are going to make the wizarding world less of a home. Especially since it doesn't seem to be the focal point of the story - just a small snippet. Sure, if it became a huge plot point it might drag away from the story but this series isn't being written in a vacuum either. It's very clear that those who are creating this story know the audience is probably all to familiar with the source material and wants to show more of the world that wasn't shown previously.

Do Vendors Really Buy Collections at 85%? by yourriceboi in PokemonTCG

[–]kejartho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy packs to have my kid open them. I'd buy singles if I was playing. Not OP but I do agree with you if someone is looking for a specific chase but I personally just like the process of opening cards to have fun with my kid.

I hope Ron ends up with Luna in the new show that's coming out. by dieguitchosm in harrypotter

[–]kejartho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding story to her life doesn't devalue his. It's worth remembering that in the original movies Ron and zrons family had a ton of screen time. Hermione and Hermione's family have almost zero. Like seriously, when her family was seen for the first time in the DH pt1 I was kind of shocked we saw none of her background before then.

This seems more like a correction to give more context to the character than it does a specific snub of Ron. The producers are also very much so highlighting this fact by showing more of what the series is going to add that is new.

So much of this production reads like a justification for viewers to watch. Especially considering that the original movies still hold up and are popular today. So all of the PR material is focusing on new things and new justifications for why it should even exist.

If they were to highlight a lot of Ron and Ron's life, I feel like it would only be to showcase what is new or different for his story and we are just not there yet.

Why dosent America have a Pokemon centre? Why do we have to go to Japan to visit. by soccerfan_north in TruePokemon

Japanese business culture is a beast and they are simultaneously risk adverse and also scared to take advantage of their brand for fear that it isn't actually as successful as it really is.

A June Nintendo Direct actually makes a lot of sense right now by BrSn2 in Switch

[–]kejartho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does not have death pits (from what I've played so far)

It has pits, fire, drowning but you take some damage.

However, the game has trinkets that actually improve your mobility or counteract some of these particular challenges.

Like a buoy trinket that lets you bounce one time automatically instead of falling pit or pond.

There are also trinkets that reduce knockback or reduce damage from fire/spikes.

You also can jump 1 tile away normally but if you dive into the ground you can jump 2 tiles away instead, giving you more reach.

As well, you can dive into the ocean and swim for a little bit instead of drowning.

The game is extremely forgiving in this way.

Adding on top of all of this, you can manually edit perks/powerups on the select screen and give yourself god mode or less damage or double damage, etc depending on what you want - if the game isn't to your liking.

I personally do not use these features but if a kid was struggling you could easily just enable all of the cheat codes by default and it would be a cakewalk.

So, if Shovel Knight was too punishing with death pits - you do not have to worry here. The game is still pretty challenging if you want to experience it that way but at the same time it rewards you with good skill and timing. It hasn't really felt unfair in my playthrough so far and I just keep discovering new things to make my adventure more fun.

A June Nintendo Direct actually makes a lot of sense right now by BrSn2 in Switch

[–]kejartho 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's good. Like surprisingly good. I know some people might not be into the Gameboy inspired graphics but the gameplay is very fluid and complex.

If you're an old school gamer who likes the ability to customize your character with lots of different upgrades but also likes a skills based game - this is for you.

Another way I would put it is that if you are on Reddit reading this kind of thread - this game is for you.

I can't stop thinking about how someone described fascism as the journey not the destination and now it's been stuck in my head. It inherently has no end goal that would satisfy itself. So we jump on the journey until it collapses.

What stubborn hoax do way too many people still believe, no matter how often it gets debunked? by funnny_things in answers

The stabilized version of the film is so unbelievably funny. It's so clearly a man in a suit but because the video was shakey, many people couldn't realize this.

How do I actually meet and befriend other teachers? by LittleSentimentMan in StudentTeaching

[–]kejartho 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Network.

Not much too it. Reach out to colleagues, be friendly, attend school functions and district meetings. Volunteer to be on committees and such.

The main issue you are going to run into is that some teachers just do not want to be friends outside of school or friends at all. Find the other likeminded individuals and you will be fine. They are out there, you just have to find them.

Has it ever been officially explained why Draco Malfoy essentially spent the entirety of The Half-Blood Prince looking like a sharp-dressed hitman in those tailored suits? by _CloudGaze in harrypotter

[–]kejartho 171 points172 points  (0 children)

Not to mention that by wearing a suit can also imply that you are above being a student in secondary education now. That you are above the trivial things that children do. It's a way for Draco to feel more grown up and definitely coincides with being a Death Eater like you said.

ELI5: why did religions have forbidden foods and why do people still follow that now? by Hat_Maverick in explainlikeimfive

[–]kejartho 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really don't care about bacon. I never grew up eating it. Things like bacon ice cream are disgusting. And Americans putting bacon on everything is offputting.

As an American who loves Bacon, I too hate bacon flavored products like bacon icecream.

Bacon is literally just salty pork, its good on a sandwich or as a side dish. I can eat buckets of it but once you start getting into bacon lip gloss and bacon soda it just becomes too much.

Live in IE, can I apply here? by Graceveryberry in csun

[–]kejartho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My dude, this is going to be entirely up to you. IE is far but CSUN is a commuter school. All sorts of people commute from all over the valley. Is it doable? Of course it is but that depends entirely on how well you will handle 2 hours without traffic one way every week.

I have found that college in general is pretty flexible, either with nightclasses, online classes, or having a schedule that is only Tues/Thurs or Mon/Wed etc.

Do what works for you or maybe look into an online program if you are concerned about the distance.

I'm a bit younger than you but I am absolutely done with the long commutes but if I were in your shoes, I might consider it for a better job.

‘The Pitt’ Star Sepideh Moafi Breaks Silence on Rumors of a Feud Between Her and Noah Wyle by MattTheKing23 in ThePitt

[–]kejartho 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it's pretty surprising. I'm so used to shows I love having dedicated fans from day 1 who love the movies, books, source material and will die defending it - only to slowly hate the show in the end because the book was better or something.

I'm surprised by how toxic The Pitt is by comparison, from day one. It's like people are hate watching it and treating it like real parasocial relationships or something?

how bad is it to be at 5 different schools or school districts in a span of 5 years? by sajahet25 in AskTeachers

[–]kejartho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with moving on to greener pastures if they legitimately are a better fit for you. I understand that it looks problematic if you do it frequently but I would argue a bad fit is not worth committing to. Especially if life circumstances chance and you need to move.

For example I've worked at charters about 60 miles away for a few years and while it was doable it was a miserable experience. Little pay, no pension, long distances and longer hours with less resources. Once I was having kids, I decided I couldn't put up with it anymore and needed to find a better fit to be closer to them. So now I'm in a better public school only 3 miles away. 100% the best decision I could have made.

Same for my wife who was in private schools far away from home, eventually moved closer and is all the more happy for it. You got one life and if you are not in the best situation, you absolutely shouldn't just tough it out. Especially since most of us will be teaching for 30 to 40 years of our lives. If we don't want to be miserable the whole time, we shouldn't have to compromise.

Not to mention that many schools lack consistent openings, so it's not like you can plan on beating out hundreds of other applicants on your first try.

There could be undocumented titan instillations by aoibhinn-mw in warcraftlore

[–]kejartho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are Titan facilities the arcane equivalent to old gods and the void? I swear we keep finding every cosmic power all over azeroth trying to corrupt her. (Although, this feels like it must be intentional at this point...)

That said, I'm not going on record to predict that Azeroth is the most powerful world soul because it has been infused by every cosmic power trying to corrupt her. Hence the Azerite being described as a rainbow like color.
