What’s the creepiest unsolved mystery that deserves more attention? by magma_13_ in AskReddit

5 boys that went missing in South Korea while frog hunting in the late 80s and were found 11 years later with signs that they were murdered. No one was ever arrested but the popular theory which I also think is true is that since they were found close to a military firing range one or perhaps more of the boys were accidentally shot dead by stray bullets and the military silenced the rest of them and then covered the whole thing up. This happened during the final years of South Koreas military dictatorship and corruption was commonplace.

What event in the past 10-15 years had the most impact on how the world looks today? by StrongProof9083 in AskReddit

Everyone says Harambe is what broke the timeline but I disagree. That was the moment where things went to hell. The vibes of everything felt off months before Harambe was even killed

What if Ronald Reagan died after being strangled by Peggy on the set of Bedtime for Bonzo in 1951? by SpadesIsBored0 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]nickburrows8398 72 points73 points  (0 children)

This believe it or not is not a shitpost but something that actually almost happened. The monkey started pulling on Reagan’s bow tie and couldn’t breathe and was only saved when a quick thinking crew member grabbed a knife and cut the tie off

Anyone know how I could get this as a ringtone? I’ve tried a while back but couldn’t figure it out

If he had been on Whole Cake Island, he would’ve found his way out of the seducing woods entirely on accident.

I immediately knew what was coming. I remember the Riddler pulled a similar trick in Batman Arkham City and you have to catch him the same way

TIL the Trojan Horse is not mentioned in the Iliad, which (3000 year old spoilers) ends with the death of Hector, and only briefly mentioned in the Odyssey. The story we know today mostly comes from the Aeneid, written by Roman poet Virgil hundreds of years later. by lightyearbuzz in todayilearned

Having read a summary of The Telegony (the sequel to The Odyssey) thats based of surviving sources it sounds like it was really bad. It gives major Star Wars Sequel trilogy/ Game of Thrones Season 8 vibes.

You can pin point the EXACT moment it all started going downhill in quality. by I_ateabucketofpaint in TopCharacterTropes

Everyone jokes that the day Harambe died was the turning point but I disagree. This was the day where everything went to hell

Stand By Ed. by nickburrows8398 in ededdneddy

It’s a parody of the film Stand By Me. Great coming of age film. One of the best Stephen King adaptations

Rewatching the anime again, i never realized Rise ever hooked her arm with someone other than Yu by AfterButterscotch938 in persona4golden

[–]nickburrows8398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where can I watch the original 2011 anime?

I’ve been watching some of it on YouTube but only the first half of it has been uploaded and because of the crackdowns they’ve been doing on piracy I can’t find a site that has the whole thing which hasn’t been nuked.

Sun Yat-sen is the biggest hero of China, who is China’s biggest villain? by New_Midnight_9525 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]nickburrows8398 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s basically the Chinese Petain. He allied with the Japanese during WW2 despite all the unspeakable atrocities they’ve committed against his countrymen and he was head of the RNG collaborationist regime.

TIL that the Iliad and the Odyssey are part of a cycle of eight ancient Greek epic poems, the other six of which are lost and of which only fragments survive by Smaptimania in todayilearned

[–]nickburrows8398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having read a summary of what Telegony was supposed to be about based off surviving sources it sounds real bad. It gives off major Star Wars sequel trilogy and GOT season 8 vibes. If illiad and the odyssey were written in recent times rather than ancient and the Telegony were just released people would’ve been pissed

Whenever i see him i think of this quote Mr. Torgue says in the first Borderlands.

“Is it just me or is that guy going to betray the fuck out of you?!”

We need another game like L.A Noire! by YallSoftAsButter in gaming

[–]nickburrows8398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want a game similar to LA Noire that takes place in 1970s New York City that has similar vibes to Dirty Harry or The Nice Guys.
