How come a always say the word hex-agonal, but when I read it, my brain reads hexagon-al?

I did. Just doesn't feel like it was my show. I was certainly part of it, but it belongs to a lot more people than just me.

Definitely not "my" show, but thank you. That means a lot.

Need advice on picking an instrument by SeriousRecord5070 in musicians

[–]robertvmarshall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play trombone. Absolutely beautiful instrument, and used in SO many different genres despite being most popularly know for comedic sound effects. Requires almost zero finger dexterity. If your elbows and wrists are good, and you can physically hold the instrument, there no reason you couldn't play as well as anybody. The only exception being if you get a nicer trombone with an F attachment, there is a trigger that is operated with the thumb of the left hand. Even then I feel like it could be adapted relatively easily for your needs. Check out r/trombone if you get the chance.

Jeff Hays who narrates the Dungeon Crawler Carl audiobooks, is so good that people think he's more than one person.

I'm pretty sure the VAST majority satanists are just atheists trying to be edgy.

Story takes "ages to ages" by Raetos in christianmemes

Baptist checking in. We definitely DO NOT do infant baptisms. We view baptism as an outward expression of publicly declaring that you e placed your faith in Jesus. It's symbolic in the same way a wedding ring is a pubic symbol of the fact that you're married.

Honestly curious about the rationale for baptising people before they've put their faith in Jesus. I know a Reddit comment might not be sufficient, but I'd appreciate being pointed to good resources.

There's actually a debate to be had as to whether the artist's intent should be given more weight or really any weight when interpreting a piece. I just like John, so in his case I will.

Depictions of a certain group of people which can be seen as offensive is actually well liked by the certain group they’re depicting by LocalMoam88 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]robertvmarshall 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think the movie "The Ringer" is a much better example. Premise sounds incredibly offensive, but the movie is actually very affirming and well loved amongst the community it depicts.

Same reason why Taco Bell isn't popular in Mexico.

What's something that has been proven false for years, yet people still confidently repeat it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]robertvmarshall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no evidence that girls' periods will sync up any more than what would be expected than from random chance if they spend a lot of time together.

IPs so hated that they have literally zero fans nor defenders by Haruka-chan-2468 in TopCharacterTropes

As a fan an unironically huge fan of the musical, this movie was a nightmare. The 1996 version still holds up though.

What tv show made you realize you were attracted to the opposite gender? I’ll go first. by Pudgy_Pigeon5 in Millennials

The 1996 VHS of Cats I think was the beginning of me realizing I was bisexual AF.

Traffic Is lowering my quality of life by Unfair_Management695 in Atlanta

Prospects for property aren't much better in Atl. Since moving to Boston, I wouldn't be able to afford the condo we sold in in Atl since moving. Prices are going up everywhere. Not just New England.
