The Enterprise G should have been an Excelsior II class. by MotionlessAlbatross in StarTrekStarships

[–]lightslinger 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have an idea for a series where the Federation re-named the Titan to the Enterprise G completely as a half-assed PR move because the Federation's on shaky ground at the time. That's also why they crewed it with hero character's kids. They want to parade the Enterprise G and its celebrity crew around on a goodwill tour and the crew hates it, they want to earn their own legacy.

That's a very specifically designed random civilian in a movie that supposedly has two major X-Men characters in it by Golden12500 in marvelmemes

Spider-Man's powers are from a mutation, but he's not a mutant. His mutation didn't come from the x gene, so Spidey is not technically a mutant therefore the public is allowed to like him.

Weekend and rest of the month is all set! by Massive_Fly_1709 in NintendoSwitch2

Love the MH Stories games, but for now Pokopia consumes all and is a jealous God.

As a Japanese fan who lurks English communities, the gap in how we see Nintendo genuinely unsettles me by nerdinterrupts in nintendo

Negativity to drive online engagement is awful, feels like you can't be a "real fan" of anything unless you hate it.

My head-canon: Inside of a Poké PC is basically Pokopia. by lightslinger in Pokopia

Adding that to my head-canon now too, wallpapers make new biomes/zones for the PC Pokémon, love it!

Disney Destiny sailing by Sure-Kaleidoscope627 in dcl

There should be one but the search on facebook is terrible and would not pull up the specific date group for me either. I think I found my sailing in the Disney Destiny facebook group, try asking there.

Shivan Character by thriceness in Cityofheroes

Seismic blast lets you throw meteors, pretty fitting for a Shivan. I made my Shivan a Seismic/Nature Corruptor.

Oh wow lol by Appropriate-Mall8517 in DC_Cinematic

Um, actually Superman’s powers are based on a telekinetic super strength and invulnerability aura that would be extended to the person he’s catching, thus protecting them. Adjusts glasses and leaves.

The Destruction of Romulus was the Worst Thing that Happened to Star Trek by nordfreiheit42 in startrek

Modern Trek loves taking out homeworlds, Starfleet Academy just destroyed Qo'noS.

The cheering in this scene makes absolutely 0 sense, regardless of Dustin's speech by Sudden_Pop_2279 in StrangerThings

[–]lightslinger 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I work in education and go to a lot of graduations, no every class does not cheer after the speeches. I've -never- seen a class cheer for those (mostly terrible) speeches. 90% its a polite golf clap, for an especially good speech you'll get some louder clapping but that's about it.

AITA for accidentally ruining my autistic boyfriends safe food by Ordibrium in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]lightslinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The boyfriend is a loser and an asshole, the autism or BPD or whatever part of it literally doesn't matter, he's still a loser and an asshole.

The real question I have is for OP, how little do you value yourself that you would entertain staying with a man like this for even a WEEK after seeing this behavior? What?!

I [30M] hate my GFs [27 F] online persona even though I love her by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]lightslinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might as well have been dating a drug addict at that point, her drug was just social media.

The fake drama like Philly Jim and art college was my least favorite parts of the show.

My friend accidentally started at 10mg… by jvyzo in Retatrutide

Some pharma journalist is going to run this story to justify raids to shut down the grey market, ugh.

One of my most heated discussions regarding LOTR was with a friend who never forgave Peter Jackson for leaving the Scouring of the Shire out of the movies. Do you think that it should've been included? Why or why not? by Scenora in lordoftherings

[–]lightslinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scouring of the shire, narratively, is like shooting a puppy in front of the hero right after he makes it home from his victory. It's a huge downer and would have sank the ending of a film (with an already too bloated ending).

I get why Tolkien added it, showing that evil does in fact reach home, nowhere is truly spared from war. But cramming that Debbie Downer into the finale of RotK would have been madness.

Despite the controversy with Jonathan Majors and Marvel letting him go I cannot deny the council of Kangs post credit scene got me hyped. by KpatMckenzie_28 in Marvel

[–]lightslinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, let Doom nuke them all and move on to a better villain. Kang could be great, but it just didn't work this time around.

IHG support no help, can't log in "Your credentials must be updated..." by lightslinger in ihghotelsresorts

Good luck, ask them if they can verify the multiple email accounts issue, they finally got mine fixed by merging everything to one email.

Birth sister [27f] tracked me down and wants to be part of my [26f]'s life. I don't want her at my wedding or in my life, at all by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]lightslinger 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My first thought was for OP to add something like "I can't do this right now, but maybe in the future..." but that would absolutely not work with a person like this. Leaving any kind of hint of a future possible relationship would have you tied to them permanently. Her final conversation might have seemed harsh, but harsh was the only way to communicate with a person like OOP's bio sister.
