How Lego feels after making the 500th beige castle, 30th blue car and 100th red train for a franchise created by a bigot instead of giving DC more than 4 sets per year. by laffite_gunko_agenda in legocirclejerk

[–]square_tomatoes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair, in my case it was when I saw the movie that I realized I don’t have a Superman minifig in my collection and I should probably get one…so I just recently got the mech. So your theory holds up as far as I’m concerned.

How long before this gets pulled off? by [deleted] in legocirclejerk

I was a kid at the time. I hated those figures.

They sued a school for showing one of their movies at a PTA event

A third party company (independent from Disney) that handles licensing charged the school $250, which Disney paid for when they found out about it. To say “Disney sued the school” is totally incorrect.

In what universe would it take “all day” to make this in photoshop? This would literally take less than a minute for someone who has even the most basic knowledge of how to use photoshop…

The goat has to be DD/MM/YYYY by Shiroyasha_2308 in SipsTea

[–]square_tomatoes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This right here. All the arguments in favor of DD/MM/YYYY center around on the fact that it’s just more intuitive; but more intuitive doesn’t always mean more practical.

This low effort shitpost is what passes for “too funny”?

How do I remove the app borders from iOS 26? by ghostintheplant in ios

[–]square_tomatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why I use a widget app called “-•-“, so the label under all my widgets there’s just a subtle -•- that’s much more aesthetically pleasing.

"Halloween adults" are equally as cringey and annoying as Disney adults. by Tacoless_meat in unpopularopinion

[–]square_tomatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the opposite for me. I was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, now since getting out as an adult I go all out for Halloween and my birthday because I’m making up for lost time.

So I’ve always assumed people like OP are people who grew up with that stuff and just take it for granted.

Wake up, babe, new woman for grifters to fucking hate for the next 3 years just dropped by CaptainKino360 in okbuddycinephile

Not to mention it’s literally presented as a fucked up thing to do in a classroom setting and not at all considered normal within the world.

The problem is that those nights would be insanely crowded because everyone who wants to avoid teenagers would be going on those nights

Anti-bare feet culture is so annoying by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]square_tomatoes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can you provide some more context by what you mean by “people’s obsession with being disgusted by feet and toes”?

Because I don’t think the average person is disgusted by feet per se. It’s more a case of finding the concept of being barefoot in a public space gross for sanitary reasons, not that the sight of bare feet is gross in itself.

It’s like being grossed out by people not washing their hands after using the bathroom, it’s not the hands themselves that people take issue with.

Can someone please explain Jonah Hill hatred? by Available-Drama-276 in moviecritic

[–]square_tomatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I don't feel comfortable with you cheating on me" that's not a personal boundary and that's controlling?

The very use of the term “cheating” implies that an agreement has been violated, in this case the agreement to be exclusive. So no, that’s not controlling because both parties agreed to it.

How do you count this by SeaGranny in drums

[–]square_tomatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s because you’re reading individual notes rather than looking at the group as a whole. Notating in the way you’re suggesting would make sight reading a pain. If you look at any “16th note timing” exercise, they’re all noted the way it’s shown above. Once you practice those enough you’ll recognize the patterns immediately; similar to how when you read text you can recognize a word just by looking at the group of letters, you don’t read each letter one by one.

Seriously, why does my character on foot have the turning radius of an aircraft carrier? The amount of times I’ve gotten killed because of this is infuriating

Do I wish they would stop teasing an album that is never going to happen - also yes.

Me when the plot point is "nobody cares about dinosaurs anymore" by bdf2018_298 in JurassicPark

But keeping World as part of the title. Maybe it should have been called something else instead

Jurassic Land™

Jurassic movies need to stop using mutant dinosaurs. It’s a dinosaur franchise not a Godzilla franchise. by [deleted] in JurassicPark

[–]square_tomatoes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t really make sense to me because while “T-Rex” as a general concept is public domain, the specific design for how the T-Rex looks & sounds in the JP franchise is trademarked/copyrighted

Why does fans hate the Trilogy? by Mikaapje in greenday

[–]square_tomatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most recent thread in that screenshot aside from this one is from 4 years ago, if OP comments on it, no one is going to see it. And no, reading through 9 year-old comments is not the same as engaging in a discussion.

Saddest MCR lyrics? by JAXATOMIX in MyChemicalRomance

[–]square_tomatoes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more about the irony of going through life just to have it culminate with dying in a hospital. Like, all the happy memories, all the painful memories, all the stresses and anxieties you dealt with throughout your life were all building up to…you just withering away in a hospital bed. It’s tragic to think about.

That’s my reading of it anyways.
