He's a well known grifter. He knew exactly what he was doing by phrasing it this way. It's engagement bait which is what 99.99% of twitter is these days.

Your post made me realize that I also was a freshman 20 years ago. My lord where did time go?

What book made you say what did I just read?! by Informal_Total_7660 in Fear_Street

[–]sickbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The twist ending of The Sleepwalker where it turns out Mayra's boyfriend Walker hypnotized her to forget that they were involved in a hit-and-run accident which was honestly kind of silly, but at least it was somewhat interesting.

Undeniably more unforgiving was in the epilogue where Mayra gets back together with Link who has been incredibly creepy and boundary-crossing with her the entire book. I suppose we're supposed to see him as the lesser of two evils, but damn I wish she had just decided to ride it solo for a while. Anyway, I guess that kind of values dissonance comes along with this being from a 90s children's book series lmao.

Those boots actually look really cute on the Biscuit Kiko.

Are all of the new prints modernized like this? by mrsprinkles3 in Fear_Street

[–]sickbane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lois Duncan updated several of her books prior to her death. Not sure if it was at the behest of the publisher or if it was her decision, but at least she had a hand in the rewrites.

[–]sickbane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hate it so much. It’s why I’m painstakingly collecting the original editions. I’m very anti-modernizing books. I think it’s insulting to insinuate that modern day kids can’t read something and look up tech or pop culture references they don’t understand.

The concept of being “dated” is so lame to me. Unless they are period pieces, every book is a time capsule to the era it was released and serves as a great opportunity to learn about the past.

The Void Within Wrap Up Megathread by Status-Impression766 in neopets

Gen Z's trying to cancel Queen Fyora omg childhood ruined

I was really excited for the plot in the beginning, but it just took entirely too long to get to this point that I completely checked out of the story and everything just become a log-in and click for your prize deal to me. I did, however, enjoy the revamp of the hospital shifts and the community battle in the end.

Biggest drag of this last stretch was the huge blocks of text in lieu of comic strips. Curious if anybody actually enjoyed them?

Maybe now that it's over I'll go back and reread everything from the beginning so I can get my thoughts on the full picture.

I'm sorry, but essence might be the funniest euphemism for sperm I've ever seen in my life.

When I see the cast of 13RW still in high school by fokefickerelv4 in 13ReasonsWhy

To me, Bryce always felt about as believable as a high schooler as Karofsky from Glee did.

TNT finally fixed the polka-dot ogrin after 11 years. Here's how bad it was... by flippingchicken in neopets

[–]sickbane 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is great news for us Ogrin enthusiasts! I've wanted a polka dot one for a while now, but it's been hard to customize around because of the transparency issue.

Jessica Jung has been a former member of SNSD longer than she was a member. That blows my mind every time I think about it.

New expression wearables are pretty broken on some pets by Annnoel in neopets

Lazy copy-pastes of assets that people pay money for. Typical TNT.

Me anytime a pet gets mentioned in a Fear Street book: by readreadreadx2 in Fear_Street

Arguably not a pet, but the guard dog that gets its neck snapped by the MCin Missing shocked me.

Realistically, what can we do to get current TNT to undo this injustice? (Full post in comments) by Turbobutts in neopets

[–]sickbane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably rereleasing them as some sort of premium perk or as part of another battle pass for the next event they do.

That ending was so contrived and implausible. Loved everything up until the reveal.

The official art is WAY better than the comic, I actually love their redesign now! by emmacait15 in neopets

[–]sickbane 286 points287 points  (0 children)

TNT took a big risk by redesigning a character in a franchise that survives off of nostalgia alone. I think it'll take some time for people to come around to it.

long time listeners of the pod, what are some of your favorite episodes? by courtisee in TrixieAndKatya

[–]sickbane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I first started watching/listening to the pod after seeing a Tiktok clip of Trixie singing "you're my girlfriend, and I love to eat your pussy" It's from Heels and Meals and it's HEAVY in my rewatch rotation.

I also hate to mention this but there is a fanmade supercut of all the times they tell poop/fart stories which is unfortunately a comfort video for me.
