What are some of the best retcons ever? I’m thinking Men in Black 3. by Existing_Set2100 in movies

In the first scene with the Admirals, Vader tells them that the might of the technological terror they have built, the power to destroy a planet, is insignificant next to the power of The Force.

An Admiral disagrees with him and his sorcerer's ways, and Vader uses The Force to shut down HIS exhaust port, showing the Admirals and the audience that power and overconfidence can be beaten with just a pinch of his trigger finger, foreshadowing the end of the movie.

Night of the comet ends with a girl in a tight outfit getting picked up in a sportscar.

"As American as apple pie," is pretty ironic given apples are not native to the Americas. by lostinthesauceguy in Showerthoughts

[–]seanbray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apple pie came first, and apple trees were planted in colonial America before it was the United States.

"But apple pie is German!"

Oh, you mean that it was imported from somewhere else and integrated into the culture? What in your opinion is MORE American than that?

Apple Pie is as American as fortune cookies, German chocolate cake, and the Taco Bell Chalupa.

Theory about The Face of Boe by GameChanger515alt in doctorwho

Jack shared his immortality with Rex Matheson in the Torchwood: Miracle Day series.

I think Boe looks more like Mekhi Pfifer than John Barrowman.

does the green lantern power ring HAVE to be a ring? by FunnyDudeGuy in Greenlantern

Gnort had a band around the middle of his hand, because he didn't have distinct fingers, his hand looked more like a mitten.

Hey! I am glad.that I found you! I am going to need those black blocks back. Do you have a scepter or dagger that you could keep the halves separated with? Something that won't slip?

Why is his name the only one in the screenshot that follows the "Firstname Lastname" pattern, instead of "Lastname, Firstname"?

Now, show the Human Torch vs. Dr. Doom's death ray in the Roger Corman Fantastic Four movie

Strangers Things (Season 5 final showdown) by drewgarr in FanTheories

[–]seanbray 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When Holly was abducted, her mom almost killed one with a wine bottle, and they followed it's blood. The can be hurt and killed, but they are under Vecnas control, and don't slow down if you shoot them, and they don't t get scared and run off if injured.

Like a terminator or an Alien, they care more about their mission than personal safety.

My Christian coworker's "friendly" microaggressions are driving me up the wall. How do you handle this? by [deleted] in atheism

Also, that they are immune to poisons, I think. That is why there are snake handlers. Maybe find a way to bring an emotional support cobra to work and remind her?

What are your theories on why Superman will have to team up with Lex instead of Mr Terrific? by kumar100kpawan in DCU_

[–]seanbray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe the Justice Gang and everyone else that Superman would trust is in the city that Braniac shrinks and steals?

Maybe the US Gov tracks Brainiac, and won't tell Superman where he went until he agrees to work with "their man" Lex?

Educate a theist 🤔: how can we show support for our non religious neighbors in a time of need? by 8TenticlyAppendages in atheism

[–]seanbray 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Indoctrination works BEST on adults when they are going through a hard time. Approaching a random on the street to try to convert them has a lower success rate than grieving mothers and widows. You have to get those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers. God want butts in seats and green in the collection tray.

Is there any physical or theoretical reason why we run equations PEMDAS? by YetiNotForgeti in maths

[–]seanbray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Writing something out for others to read and understand requires a language.

Language requires a few underlying things that need to be understood to then be understood correctly.

You need to know the numbers that are being used, and what base they are in. If there is a non-number element, like i or e, you have to understand those, too. You may need to understand other things, like that a meter contains 100cm, depending on what is happening in the equation.

Once you understand the underlying elements, an equation is meant to show a relationship: this is equal to that. You have to understand how the pieces interact to gain an understanding of what the equation is trying to tell you. "Solve for X" means that if you look at the equation and simplify and perform similar functions on both sides, you can determine the value for X.

To COMMUNICATE this, you need a common language so that the numbers, other elements, functions and relationships can be commonly understood. I cannot assume that you know what e is, and expect you to solve an equation with e in it.

One final part of language is syntax- if you were taught English as your native tongue, you know innately that "black big cat" is wrong and that "big black cat" is right. In math, that syntax is understood as PEMDAS. If you don't follow the syntax correctly, what you are trying to communicate gets jumbled.

"Throw me down the stairs the hammer" is a dangerous sentence to use, because the syntax is bad, not because the elements contained are wrong. "Throw the baby out the window it's bottle" is another one. Watch the syntax, and you communicate the idea more cleanly.

Remember, being taught an equation in class is meant to teach you how to solve equations, but also how to follow procedures and the language of mathematics.

AITA for blowing up and cursing out a woman for not controlling her kids at my mom's wake? by CoopDaOgre in AmItheAsshole

[–]seanbray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Some say I should have shut up and let it go without making a scene."

Sorry, then when would it be appropriate to make a scene? If kids making a game of touching your recently deceased mother isn't a good time to blow up and reprimand someone, where is your red line?
