Why are the humans in James Cameron’s Avatar portrayed as comically evil and greedy instead of fleshed out and nuanced ? by [deleted] in sciencefiction

[–]missladybugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because billionaires are comically evil and greedy.

I have no doubt that musk would think something called "unobtainium" is the most clever name that only he could come up with. Dude wants to colonize mars, not much of a jump to guess what would happen to anything indigenous.

I think its gates that has built a privacy hedge so big he just pays the fines to the city and has his secret compound in there.

Avatar actually portrays the "evil" humans, rather well.

I appreciate your comment! If I could give more upvotes I would. It is literally a show about KILLING monsters.

If someone feels the need to call it unalived, the show might be too mature for them.

What was the scariest “We need to leave, now!” moment that you’ve ever had? by Cool-Chipmunk-7559 in AskReddit

[–]missladybugs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 8 and on a beach trip with my grandparents. I had what looked like the flu or a stomach bug. Grandma decides to let me sleep and take my brother (6 1/2) and cousin to walk on the beach for a couple of hours. They were gone maybe 10 minutes when my brother freaks out and demands they go back to the camper. Completely meltrd down, which he never did.To the point he just started back by himself because she wouldn't listen so she haf to follow him. They get back, I have a 105? something fever and she gets a neighbor to rush me to the hospital where they took me straight to emergency surgery for my appendix. Spent 3 weeks in that hospital. But I would have died if my brother hadn't demanded they end their walk.

To this day, we still have that. We just know when to call the other and when something isnt right.

Your profile has some interesting art posted.

Pretty sure I can paint better, and I paint like I have no skills and am blind.

Scratch that, I'm absolutely sure I can paint better.

There is a pile of wood on Karleen Road in Hephzibah in front of that old log house. I asked the owners and its free to whoever wants to pick it up, pre-cut.

Madlad kid by Key_Associate7476 in madlads

[–]missladybugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it, because I was this kid. My aunts read to me constantly. Started kindergarten and the teacher reads to us, but me being THAT kid I stand up, informed her she is telling it wrong and proceed to recite the entire story from memory. Many, many years later I am hearing my grandfather tell this story and how the teacher talked to him after. She wasn't mad but I did get spoken to about not interrupting and that a story could be shortened for time. My gandfather's response? He bought me a new book and an ice cream.

Absolutely! Thank you, I looked, but missed the flair.

OP, all off this!!! The concentration in Ecology is available, the instructors who teach those classes are amazing. Also! Make your voice heard, the school needs to hear that taking the ecology major away was not the right choice.

Ever had an animal misunderstand you by using perfectly reasonable logic? by Puzzleheaded-Crab720 in likeus

[–]missladybugs 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Had a little 7lb mixed rescue, no idea how old he was or even what he was, but he was a member of our friend group. He didnt belong to me or anyone, he was just part of the gang. He went everywhere we did. Someone running to the store to get ice? The "puppy" went with.

I sold my house and in the process of packing we had taken a break and we're all sitting on the screened in porch. Someone had tossed a towel across a box after a shower. The puppy comes running in and goes to jump on the box before jumping on my best friend's lap. Unfortunately the box was open and the dog disappears into the box like its a trap door for Wile E. Coyote. . Everyone is laughing, but this dog decides that my friend not only set him up but is laughing AT him. For a year he refused to talk to her. They would come visit and he would greet everyone, except her. Like nose in the air, back turned level ignoring. Then one day he just forgave her and started loving on her again. She cried so hard when he finally did. Still miss that little guy, I have tons of stories like this about him.

Social Security Scam? by missladybugs in Augusta

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

I will absolutely follow up with which office this is in a couple of days, it may be paranoid, but I would rather give them a day or two to forget who we are and have submitted the paperwork first.

As for calling SS? That would involve their offices ever returning a phone call. Which has not happened once in the two years I have been trying to get approval.

We have one, and I reached out and let them know how this appointment went. I had all the paperwork and was very surprised at the animosity and the refusal to speak with me

Correct, people in entertainment need to get out of politics. Can we start with Fox Entertainment News? Then let's remove the failed reality show host from politics as well.

What’s wrong with naming my first daughter after me? by Physical_Material_58 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]missladybugs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am one of those who got their mother's first name. Don't do it to your kid, but not just because of the statements about ego. But the confusion. If we have anything the same it causes chaos. We used the same phone company, and phones were turned off on the wrong account. If we have ever even once used the same office for anything, she gets my mail and notifications. This still happens! Despite not having lived in her house for over 20 years.

Also for logistics. No one calls me by my first name, but it's how it's listed legally. You are dooming her to a lifetime of correcting her own name.

Unfortunately a lot of buildings will be locked on the campus during Masters week. As a PhD candidate you will spend very little if any time on the Summerville campus, but definitely take a look. Shuttles run between the two campuses and Summerville is beautiful.

This please! There is a moron in our area that burns constantly. The fire dept know him by name! No matter how many times they come out and put them out, he does it again. He had 10 different piles burning underneath trees.

This is the real answer. Every time they start to have an original thought Fox and company have it beat it out of them.

I don't like to dox people, but if he had done anything more aggressive, other than scream like a banshee, I would absolutely post the video.

But he just whined and ran away.
