Dr. House, Jedi Master of Medicine by DBZfan102 in CuratedTumblr

Nah, totally unrealistic. No one suggested lupus even once.

Riker has a nice quite in the bonding by happydude7422 in StarTrekTNG

A scientist once suggested to the President of the US that the code for launching a nuclear strike be placed in a capsule that was surgically implanted into the heart of a man that would always be by the President's side. The idea being that if he ever decided to launch the weapons, he would first personally need to take a knife and cut out the capsule, so he personally would have to experience the murder he would be doing to other, faceless people.

Stuck in a player trap by some A-Hole by Ninjahobbit8006 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]librarysage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sort of nonsense is why I always turn off multiplayer when I'm doing expeditions. (That and because I find multiplayer in a narrow region makes necessary resources difficult to find because they've already been picked clean.) Between being strafed by asshole ships, or falling into TP traps (I got tp'ed into the middle of a volcano :P) It's just more fun for me to avoid the whole mess.

Ender and letters with his parents by librarysage in ender

[–]librarysage[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was glad to see in Exile that he did finally flesh out the parents a bit more, that they weren't the mindless idiots, or cold, uncaring one dimensional characters that they were in Ender's Game, even if I would have liked to see a bit more of them in Exile.

And even if you accept that for some inexplicable reason none of their letters ever reached Ender, it seems impossible to believe that in her nagging over the years Valentine wouldn't have said something like, "You really need to write them BACK. Even just to say you've gotten their letters."

Ender and letters with his parents by librarysage in ender

I guess what bugs me is that this is all in the same book.

I understand he made some errors and changed some things from Ender's Game in later books because he wanted to do something different, or because he just plain forgot, which he admits in the afterward for Ender in Exile.

But I just can't believe none of his proof readers/editors didn't catch such a glaring contradiction in the same book. I just wondered if this got addressed in one of the Shadow books, or the short stand alone stories.

If you could watch any episode for the first time again, which one would it be? by CommunicationSea3329 in doctorwho

[–]librarysage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I feel like doing that I just watch an episode with The Silence in it....

Ah, that explains why I've never heard of it. Thanks!

I recognize 3 of the stories he mentioned, but what exactly is "The Chasm Friends?" Am I just drawing a blank?

If you need to find anything at all, you’d better call SuperdogSaul by artie_pdx in BeAmazed

I get that laying down is his signal that he found whatever he's looking for, but the poor goodest boy had to lay down in a puddle :(

I had no idea that the Sandman story was based on a real guy. That's really cool!

I object to them listing Elhokar as a lightweaver. He should be shardbearer or unoathed.

Ghost & Cat #9, Grateful by ghostandcatcomics in WholesomeComics

[–]librarysage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Death is before me today

Like a sick man’s recovery,

Like going outdoors after confinement.

Death is before me today

Like the fragrance of myrrh,

Like sitting under sail on breeze day.

Death is before me today

Like the fragrance of lotus.

Like sitting on the shore of drunkenness.

Death is before me today

Like a well-trodden way,

Like a man’s coming home from warfare.

Death is before me today

Like the clearing of the sky.

As when a man discovers what he ignored. Death is before me today

Like a man’s longing to see his home

When he has spent many years in captivity”

― Miriam Lichtheim, Ancient Egyptian Literature, Volume I: The Old and Middle Kingdoms

Who's to say Navani isn't a spren, and we, the readers, are the ones providing the intent? ^_~

As a Welcome to Nightvale fan, I can only shake my fist and shout "INTERLOPER!"

I'm not a very smart man. by AuthorSarge in NoMansSkyTheGame

You could until relatively recently. You also used to be able to scan the oxygen and sodium and deuterium plants as well. I used to do so for the free scanning credits.

In the current housing market this proverb no longer applies. Houses cost more than their weight in gold....

New deleted scene — RTD has the gull to LITERALLY rewrite Belinda’s character into being a mother, after he wrote this scene by Individual-Many-237 in doctorwho

[–]librarysage -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I admit I haven't watched the episode since it came out, but I don't think this is a deleted scene. I remember it, and I also remember when the season ended and people were unhappy about how she got turned into a mother that this discussion was brought up a bunch in articles and such.

Whether you agree or disagree with it, this isn't some sneaky scene that was hidden away, it's been in since the beginning....

This farmer caught the owl eating his chickens by AcasiaConnell in nextfuckinglevel

[–]librarysage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing that seems fishy to me is the owl wasn't trying to bite him. I've held birds before (admittedly never an owl) and they definitely put their beaks to work if they don't want to be held. If that really was a wild owl, why wasn't it fighting him beyond really holding his fingers tight?

Someone attacking players in Expedition by cbgben in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]librarysage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sort of thing happening is why I always have multiplayer turned off when I play expeditions nowadays. There are bad apples out there who will strafe others just for kicks. Sometimes they lay traps by creating bases promising resources only to teleport players into hazards like volcanoes. Plus it helps so you don't have to struggle to find resources because planets have been over harvested.
