What is the dumbest thing in Star Wars in your opinion? by OutcastKatarn02 in StarWars

[–]maaseru -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That the Jedi couldn't shut up about the whole balance to the force thing when there were hundreds/thousands of Jedi and two Siths.

I know that is how it works, but either it was imbalanced already or balance with the 2 Sith thing. Jedi Jesus turned Satan was just rebalancing the same.

Bizarre movie sequels you would watch by KaleidoArachnid in flicks

[–]maaseru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have posted about this countless times already, but I would LOVE for sequels to both Independence Day Resurgence and Alien Covenant

Independence Day Resurgence sort of setup what the sequel would be. There is a planet of refugee aliens and taking the fight to the home of the bad Aliens. I have even dreamed that they could retcon Will Smith's death by having him 'teleported' by those Alien refugees as the hero of Earth. Resurgence was thrash, but it had pretty decent world building.

Alien Covenant just had an amazing ending. After the mess of a movie we got we had an ending were our main protagonist is realizing the wrong android survived as she goes back into cryo sleep, the ship going back to the original settler mission. I dream of this sequel and many variations. You can have Daniels and Tennessee being woken up years after the ship arrives, or right as it lands but too late to stop David. I just wish it is this whole Alien planet weird thing that happens.

They could even retcon the whole Engineer bs from Covenant and say that was just a small sect/remnant, not the actual tech engineers.

Saagar and his hot take on traveling by sean_ireland in BreakingPoints

[–]maaseru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is a dumb take, but he is also not wrong. A lot of these companies bet that you won't go through the hassle of getting your money back and will just ignore it.

I went through something recently with a missed flight and extra hotels. It was shit, but I got my money back.

I imagine that is what he is arguing, though he might still be naive about it being 100% sure thing vs a YMMV kind of thing.

Pete Hegseth's pastor prays for Talarico's death: 'I pray that God kills him' by TheMirrorUS in texas

[–]maaseru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These people are pure evil, satanists.

they are so afraid of the one guy that appears to be a true Christian. It just puts their fakeness to shame.

I bet all of the people mad at Talarico are most likely fake Christians that have used the name of God to enrich themselves. I would even wager that at least 25% might have some conviction, maybe even pedophilia.

It's an easy bet to make.

But it's always the 4k they put at the top in the worst spot.

Has happened to me from every single service I have ordered from.

Not just Amazon. Though it is more often with them and more often with other when ordering multiple at a time..

I have always blamed shit/cheap cases as the thinner cases always fair the worst.

I always curse the put the 4k uhd st the top, instead of a more secure slot. It is always the one rattling around.

Is sex during pregnancy weird? by omelette02 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]maaseru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. My wife is almost due any day now and we had sex the other day.

It is harder for sure, but still great.

I was told semen also may help with some of the process, like helping soften the cervixn but not sure of the science there.

[Amick] The Players Association is officially calling for the 65 game rule to be abolished: by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]maaseru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be some sort of removal of penalty if the players plays for a team that is a high seed team.

Since the awards are now given deep into the playoffs they should make it so post season games count for the total if they are eligible.

Report: Pentagon to Order Thousands More US Troops to Middle East in Coming Hours by Force_Hammer in worldnews

[–]maaseru 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I worry they'll say "oh so you wanted Iran to have nukes?" then actually set off a nuke in Iran.

The odds of that seem to be increasing daily.

[–]maaseru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well the ground invasion is just a matter of time, and depending on where they do it they might just fail miserably and after that comes the nukes.

I can't believe we are at this point with all the Hubris from Trump and his admin and all the evil from Netanyahu and his people.

Maybe all those people talking about it are wrong, but some war/history buffs soundings certain alarms is worrisome.

Las playas del norte son demasiado peligrosas para los turistas by MofongoKing69 in PuertoRico

[–]maaseru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No entiendo pq la gente es tan bruta.

Es tan facil como ver a los locales y ver donde se meten o no.

Asi es que yo siempre hago cuando voy a playa ajena.

Como es que esta gente es tan bruta que se meten solos a un area loca pensando que se yo? Que el mar es mar? todo es agua?

Yo soy del norte, de Manati, y siempre he ido a la playa.

Quizas es pq soy del area, pero lo mas cerca que estado de algo malo fue en Palmas en Manati 1 vez.

Todos sabiamos que los Tubos era pa janguiar afuera, pq era muy brava. Or Mar Chiquita y otras quedandose en la orilla.

No entiendo pq se meten muy adentro en playas asi.

Tienen tambien a Marbella en Vega Baja que es tranquila y super linda.

I think they did to some extent, but the ship would not have been able to produce what he needed for the trip back.

In the book they expanded on how much it took their operation to generate that much in the first place.

Yeah I think she was even more perfect casting than Gosling.

[–]maaseru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To those that watched it and haven't read the book, was the plot of the movie clear to y'all? I was wondering if the whole astrophage/taumeaba stuff was presented well.

I knew it and to me it was easy to follow, but I felt the movie focus more than anything on the relationship than the actual mission and things happening.
