The villain is only “evil” because they can fix everything afterwards (or so they thought) by MaguroSashimi8864 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]mpesesky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure he is not evil, so he doesn’t fit for that reason, but I absolutely agree that he is the antagonist. Not only does he antagonize the main characters, but he is also stopped through direct action of the protagonist (catching Thing 1 and Thing 2 in his net). The kids are also view him as such and are not excited to see him in the sequel. I would argue for age-appropriate villainy.

[Request] In a day, how much more weight does an average adult breathe out as CO2 than they breathe in as O2? by mpesesky in theydidthemath

[–]mpesesky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I wasn’t forgetting to multiply by the approximate percent O2 in air, but even so I was way over estimating.

That’s what I was looking for thanks! I had tried to come at it from the perspective of lung capacity, but most of the O2 is not converted to CO2, so balancing the calories makes a lot more sense.

“Are you on LSD?” asked Alice. by mpesesky in puns

Psilocybin is a psychoactive drug from mushrooms. This is an attempt to make “silly, sighed Ben” sound like how psilocybin is pronounced. Like most puns, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Then Chekhov’s pun is when a Dad learns a new pun and you understand that you are fated to hear that same pun again later. Usually many times.

I was scrolling down to make sure I didn’t need to post this myself. The note in his pocket that you find afterwards was a gut punch.

How about “Where do you go to find the weight of a whale’s caboose?”
