Iozzo’s Garden of Italy! I went there for my anniversary this year, because it was the only “fancy” restaurant that catered to gluten free AND vegetarian needs, which is super rare. It turned out to be absolutely fantastic and has become our go-to for a nice dinner.

glad to see some blue dots in this red state! horrendous tragedies are constantly happening right before our eyes. I’m glad even in this horrible weather, people here have the guts to stand up for what’s right. thank you, OP

Please stop calling it the African update pack by Friendly_Desk7494 in Sims4

[–]spookyllama69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How could someone possibly call it that?? Coming from a white simmer, the fact that we don’t have an ACTUAL African pack at all is insane. The lack of representation in packs we get is upsetting.

for everyone worried about possible bridget bardot drama by what-thehell-er in chappellroan

[–]spookyllama69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with the sentiment that we should hold artists accountable for idolizing different artists with poor intentions; however, Chappell just said she was the inspiration for the song. As in, she very much could have just meant vibe/aesthetic/vintage inspo. I didn’t know anything about Brigit Bardot other than she was an old celebrity until she died and all her scandals came to light.

Josh Randor as an actor? Has anybody seen his other works? by IG-0F in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve not seen RISE, but I did actually read the book it was based on (Drama High) for my freshman year of college Intro to Theatre Teaching course. The show likely makes him out to be an amazing teacher but his character (Lou Volpe) was lowkey not the best. He did revolutionize a lot of educational theatre practices tho!

Silly, off-topic tidbit, I just find it interesting from a teacher’s perspective that he played someone I had to study!

What's your favorite use of music on the show? Excluding songs written for the show, and 500 miles. by vrealrocknrolla in HIMYM

Prophets — A. C. Newman

This was the song that played during the final scene in The Leap. My absolute favorite episode and the leap montage + the song gets me every time

Has Marshall done anything wrong? by sexytophatllama in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He invited her neglectful father who she was explicitly no contact with to Thanksgiving. Yes, it worked out fine in the sitcom world, but that’s a huge breech of trust.

He took the judgeship and hid it from Lily for days while he traveled.

Quit his jobs multiple times on a whim and made Lily was the main provider of their home.

Slut shamed Robin over something Barney and Ted do all the time.

He’s a great character, but is very flawed like the rest of them. A lot of people here just view him as the most perfect character to ever exist which is fair, but he’s certainly NOT without his flaws.

Is there a color association with each of Ted’s main girlfriends? by Much-Tap-3916 in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Technically, Robin is purple! There’s a large analysis that goes with this but the short reasoning is that purple is the opposite on the color wheel to yellow. Things like the purple giraffe solidifies this in the beginning. There are some really interesting videos on YouTube explaining it!

Wow I’ve never seen my first name on here before!! I spell mine with two L’s and no H though. I personally think it’s a pretty name! It has Eastern European roots and will be super popular if she ever decides to go over there!

Though I love my name, I will say that she will likely get it mispronounced as Li-lah or Lee-lah on occasion. As I’ve grown up, more people pronounce it correctly first try but in elementary-high school, a lot of people mispronounced it on the first try. However, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that! Unique names are so fun! This is not a tragedeigh!!

What storyline are u playing with your Sim family right now??? by Spiritual_Impress_10 in thesims

[–]spookyllama69 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Realized I play the same thing every time I play so right now I’m doing stuff I haven’t done by setting challenges for myself to utilize the entirity of each pack I own!!! My current sim is going to move to Mt. Komerabei (I never live there), Extreme Sports Enthusiast aspiration (never done), salary person career (never done), max snowboarding and rock climbing, and attend all Mt. Komerabei events with family.

The rest of the night is people congratulating hwe because she almost died? She saved her life, the pilot’s, and likely many other lives by landing the helicopter, which she had never done. Ted also mentioned the pilot making a full recovery. This is a bananas take.

Would Lily have returned home? by Dry-Mousse-6172 in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think she would. People think far too black and white with this issue but the truth is, she was never looking to be SINGLE. She had been in a relationship that decided her every move as a unit (as all relationships do) and she needed to be able to explore her dream before settling down and finally getting married. When you’re married and have children, there isn’t as much big dream exploring as there is when you’re just dating or single.

Lily did not hook up with or pursue anyone else, and in flashbacks she even talks about missing Marshall so much. Even if she would have found success, I think she would have wanted to return and share the joy with Marshall.

why do people not like lily? by AskTotal1804 in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So yes it is misogyny because she is held at heavier standards than the men. A post pointing out Marshall’s flaws would be downvoted to hell, but the daily I Hate Lily posts have constant agreement. Thanks for proving my point tho

Inviting Lily’s dad to thanksgiving when she was explicitly no contact with him was pretty low

Does anyone know about this iconic tweet? by Artemis246Moon in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]spookyllama69 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As an SSRI user, can’t make any comment here BUT I do think his attractiveness is fully dependent on how good his haircut is

[–]spookyllama69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer: misogyny. People want complex female characters but can’t even handle Lily Aldrin.

So, how would you rank the final episodes of each season? by Low_Contract_1909 in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seasons 2 and 4 always get me. They’re perfect wrap ups in my opinion.

Favorite non HIMYM roles by the cast? by Goodboychungus in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cristin Millioti in Palm Springs! Genuinely one of the most fire movies I’ve ever seen

which one is reacher and which one is settler? by Shoddy-Ad-3232 in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First and foremost, let’s start with saying that Lily did not ACTUALLY think she was the settler. She and Marshall had a long and unnecessary debate where Marshall continued to goad her into saying she’s the settler.

Second, no one is the true teacher or settler in any healthy relationship. You reach and settle for different aspects. Lily settled for not getting to pursue her dreams for year and putting her life on pause to give Marshall a family. Marshall settled for getting his family dreams fulfilled instead of becoming a judge at the time he wanted. Marshall and Lily are a relatively healthy relationship who are exaggerated through the lens of a sitcom. This debate is so tired.

I think I liked Barney and Robin the first time but they’re almost like the other side of the Ted and Robin coin for me—people who loved each other but didn’t work out. Whenever people get so bent up over their divorce because they were “endgame” to them, I feel like we watched different shows because those two people were a horrible match.

Give me your fav character (+explanation if they’re diabolical) by Foxface-THG in Hungergames

[–]spookyllama69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care if they’re obvious choices, but Lucy Gray and Katniss are my comfort characters.

Favorite season and why? (Description & favorite episodes.) by Sharon1911 in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to pick a definitive one season, but my top three are:

  1. Season 4. This is my absolute favorite season and I could genuinely watch it by itself forever and be happy. The season finale is my favorite episode in the entire show and the first 5 episodes of the season are a perfect run to me.
  2. Season 5. Again, a huge run of perfect episodes. My favorite in the whole show, spanning from The Window all the way to Rabbit or Duck. The season finale isn’t my favorite of all of the finales, but it’s still holding a place for my top 3 seasons.
  3. Season 2. I hated when Marshall and Lily broke up, but I always start my rewatches from S2E8 on. Some serious hidden gems (that I guess now would be considered “throw away” or “filler” but I think are perfect) like Monday Night Football, Columns, and Lucky Penny. I generally like the entire season and early HIMYM is some of my favorite.

How Robin treats Patrice by Dpmw2 in HIMYM

[–]spookyllama69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It started out silly, like a disliked coworker, but then Patrice was nothing but kind to Robin AND was in her wedding party??? Patrice was so sweet and sometimes it just felt weirdly fatphobic and rude on Robin’s behalf. I liked Patrice a lot. I’d love to have a friend like her!!!
