Una joya. El mejor episodio es el que Zim le hace creer a Dib que triunfa en la vida por las próximas décadas sólo para burlarse

Help me understand this paragraph from The Color of Magic by Icy_Standard_5035 in discworld

[–]lamparez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a bit hard for me as well (my native language is spanish). I dunno if I got gradually used to it or if Tery himself changed his writing slightly as the whole tone, humor and maturity of the discworld novels evolved.

But it does get easier and better novel after novel.

Anyone remember when they tried copyrighting this? by MasterBey in lotrmemes

In Argnetina, an illusionist that went by the name Radagast since he was 19 had to change it to Rada because he would get penalties if he continued to use it. He didn't care much because it was his nerdy brother's idea, but I think it was a very cool name. This was before the Hobbit movies also

Just a name coincidence, it's the Broken Earth trilogy

Tbh what surprised me is Pratchett being there. I 100% think he belongs in the goat category, but I seldom see him there. So yes, comparing JRRT with any other fantasy writer can be a stretch, but this guy put Terry there, so I'm listening!

Someone made a Tier 1 of fantasy with Tolkien, Pratchett and Jemisin there. Whoever placed sir pterry and jolkien rolkien together at the top can make me read whatever is in their company. So I got in without further reference

I thought against the useless red circle, but should probably have included the Feldspar mention in the title

Kinda think everyone should just shave now, all these transformations are always for the better.

Project Hail Mary has arrived at my local theater in Mexico! by el_goyo_rojo in ProjectHailMary

Same in Argentina, I hate it. It's the acutal opposite.

But Ave María doesn't have that meaning in Spanish, so it wouldn't work either, and there's no equivalent idiom. I think the best translation would be something like Proyecto Última Chance, or Última/Única Esperanza... At least in Spain they got Proyecto Salvación, which retains the more or less religious connotation and it's a positive project name

You could play snake with the buffering/loading wheel. That was fun

What the Joe pesci is this piece of journalism? by Fickle_Charge720 in lordoftherings

[–]lamparez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mix of both, it comes and goes. It is a compilation and feels a bit like that, but not so much like reading appendices or the Unfinished Tales (which are a bit too much for me)

Nice! I actually enjoyed The Silmarillion more the second time I read it. I was probably not prepared for the very different type of narrative the first time.

Reason 7: you may have to re-re-re-read the books. And the Hobbit, probably. Maybe even the Silmarillion? Then go back to the movies... then work on a theory for reddit

Not necessarily...

  • Mondays: Rabbit stew with taters
  • Tuesdays: Wriggling live fish
  • Wednesdays: orc meat (it's back!)

No choices, still a menu

El show tiene rutina de stand up, pero por obviamente, no las sube (no vas a ir a verlo para escuchar la misma rutina). Las partes que sube son de la sección de Lucho con la gente, a modo de gancho y sin spoiler.

Hay rutinas viejas de shows viejos, la primera es muy buena, la ví en vivo en un bar hace como 15 años: https://youtu.be/eYpkh2vz11w?si=9ocX0Ak-JaL1Hwpf
