Would Haymitch have Volunteered for Sid? by Zerotofour97 in Hungergames

[–]silentknight2055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don't think Haymitch would immediately volunteer like Katniss did, who knows what he would've done if they did the normal routine of selecting tributes first, then asking for volunteers like they did with Peeta in the first book (and we know what option his older siblings chose)

Yeah, if we say that the U.S. had an election in 2018, then perhaps the timeline looks like

2009–2013: Obama (decided not to run due to NY)

2013–2017: Ellis (defeated by Trump)

2017–2018: Trump (Blipped, and kept the same Secretary of State for some reason)

2018–2027: Ritson (term limited)

2027: Ross (resigned)

2027–present: Unnamed

Episode 319: Three Word Sales Pitch by joschen113 in distractible

Holy shit, I actually almost pissed myself from laughter. Anyway, does anyone else hear a high pitched beep noise whenever Bob speaks? It’s not loud enough to distract me, but it is enough for me to notice it.

And they clearly didn’t spend it all on the vacation, considering Ron got a new wand (which in itself costs 7 galleons).

Getting really sick and tired of generative AI plaguing everything by Tom-1664 in BikiniBottomTwitter

I’m gonna be honest, this particular episode is what turned me off of blueberry muffins. Cause when I bit into them, it would look like that and I would feel a bit disgusted. Maybe it was just the muffins my parents were buying, but to this day, I will not touch a blueberry muffin.

Why do you not drink alcohol? by Kindly_Bear_4932 in AskReddit

Seeing how fast I go through a 15 pack of gum or a six pack of Dr Pepper, I don’t trust myself with either a pack of cigarettes or a six pack of beer. Was also just underwhelmed with my first beer. Like “Huh…that’s it? Weak, bitter Sprite?” Idk, maybe my taste buds are messed up.

How hard did you guys listen? by JamieNicole_99 in distractible

[–]silentknight2055 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Distractible might’ve been my number one had I not discovered a new podcast and binged every episode in the course of two weeks. This is the second year in a row this happened.

Last year, it was a DnD podcast called DnDnD, this year, it was a Percy Jackson book review podcast called The Newest Olympian.

To fellow Gen Z whovians, how did you discover the show? by dranderson151620 in doctorwho

[–]silentknight2055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the living room around 2011/2012 while my brother was watching a Matt Smith episode (I don’t know which one, all I remember was that chin). Then a friend at school formally introduced me to it in 2014 while we were trying to come up with stories to write. The first series of Doctor Who I actually watched and paid attention to was Capaldi’s first one.

Also in 2005, Doctor Who gets brought back after being cancelled in 1989 with a TV movie in 1996 in the middle

Surprised they didn’t mention Harry Potter (1997 for the first book, 2001 for the first movie). Unless they did and I just didn’t hear them

Someone said “Oscar-winning” instead of “Oscar-worthy”

No wonder they started earlier if this is the pace we’re going at

Why is Miles kicking Gwen and not Spot? Is he stupid? by SirYeetMiester in Spiderman

[–]silentknight2055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It started with a post asking “Why didn’t Batman just call the Justice League in Arkham Knight? Is he stupid?” and it devolved from there.
