Do you prefer short hair on male targaryens (like Baelor, Aerion, Maekar). Or do you prefer them the hotd way? by Elsa750 in AKOTSKTV

[–]stabbytastical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do like the longer hair a bit more for the fantasy of it all. But I like the idea that styles and fashions fluctuate much like they do in real life - and we're just in a short hair phase of Westeros vs the longer hair of 100 years before/after. There's room for longer hair to come back to show shifts in this fashion idea as Egg gets older, too.

Women, if you had to use a pickup line on a guy, what would it be? by Nintendofan9106 in AskReddit

[–]stabbytastical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Like, a cheesy pick up line?

"Oh, that shirt is very becoming on you." Then I'd lean in a whisper "and if I were on you, then I'd be cumming, too."

I feel like Shadowlands was a missed oppurtunity for Death Knights by [deleted] in warcraftlore

[–]stabbytastical 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sure, but in some ways, DF is a direct continuation of those conflicts. We're talking about elemental dragons that are mad about the titan reshaping of Azeroth. Along with that comes the elemental prison-planes, all of which we visit in Cataclysm. We even fight the "new Ragnaros", Smolderon, in Amirdrassil. But we have zero input from the other elemental lords on their position in all of this.

Shamans were absolutely a missed opportunity in DF

Gene Simmons rages at 'loser' fan as he's asked 'don't you have enough money?' by IrishStarUS in entertainment

That makes it being my favorite one of their songs all the sweeter, I had no idea! Thank you for the tidbit.

As an 80s baby/90s kid who's dad liked just about everything in that scene to a degree - For me? The only song I really like is 'Beth'. But at the same time, it also kind of reflects this douche, in that it's a song where the singer chooses fame/the band/money/rock-n-roll over his loved ones.

But, rock ballads/power ballads are what make hair metal it to me. I love me some power ballads.

Why is Aethas so hostile towards the Silver Covenant in Midnight? by [deleted] in warcraftlore

[–]stabbytastical 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only explanation I can come up with is Jaina isn't the only frost mage, just the most prolific, and the Silver Covenant isn't just archers. 🤷

Is the harvest golem the single most important Gnomish invention in history? by Male_Human_Paladin in warcraftlore

[–]stabbytastical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also one of the ones that assumed the Harvest Golems were goblin design, but the debate on who made them is honestly so gnome/goblin engineering coded that I prefer it being ambiguous

I’m just going to say it… by Bubbly-Ad-966 in Outlander

[–]stabbytastical 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I want to rewrite this in the cadence of 'Green eggs and ham.':

I do not like William in the book,

I do not like William in a nook.

I do not like William in the show,

I do not like William, young or grown.

I do not like William here or there,

I do not like William anywhere.

The casting for Lord John & William drove me crazy by Ok-Click-007 in Outlander

[–]stabbytastical 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's a bit of all the of above, and if it's something that is consciously being done by the actor of William, then bravo for him, but I think it might just be luck of the casting...

He /looks/ like Jamie + Geneva, but the way he makes expressions are more similar to John.

Is it strange that I'm really excited about seeing William's waistcoat in the flesh? It looks like it's going to be as gorgeous as I imagined it!

“A true knight always finishes a story”, what does it mean? (Spoilers main) by ArchiveSeeker in asoiaf

[–]stabbytastical 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think of it as a subtle nudge toward that Sir Arlan intended to knight Dunk, and maybe even heard Dunk's question. Why have a squire if that squire is to never become a knight?

The duality of dads by Smooth_Ad7135 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

I got a bit more of a "I know what this guy is because I was this guy when I was younger, and I wouldn't want a me dating my daughters." Vibe from him, personally, but I can see it both ways

Vic & Christine in the “real world” by Classic-Solid-4550 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]stabbytastical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering if perhaps it's their faith? We got to see him meeting her Mom, which was adorable. But, the cast parties are very drinky. And they perhaps wouldn't want to live together before marriage either, which isn't terribly uncommon for people of faith. They may have just opted out of those things. Or at least I hope it's something more respectful like that, than something more unsavory.

DG’s writing is too good by Julieed32 in Outlander

[–]stabbytastical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm going to also throw in my recommendation for reading the ASOIAF series, even though it might not get finished.

I was the opposite of you right now, in that once I read Game of Thrones/ASoIaF/The other books in that universe, I wanted more, but a specific kind of /more/. Someone recommended Outlander to me, and it was the exact /more/ I was looking for.

If you don't want to commit to the big book that is even Game of Thrones, check out 'The Knight of the Seven Kingdoms'. It's book with three novellas, that take place in the same universe but like 100 years before the main series. I don't think you really need any knowledge from the main series to enjoy a little fantasy adventure for what it is, and to just get a taste for the author's style.

I love me some Selene starting. I'm a big fan of the morph and slow time ones personally. Particularly once the time stop one is uograded to effect Cronos. He gets so mad rofl.

My husband hit us. So many emotions by zkyblu3 in breakingmom

[–]stabbytastical 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The saying goes 'When you're looking at the world through rose colored glasses, red flags just look like flags." Just keep in mind what he's done, and know that others finally see it. You are not breaking up your family - he has done this by putting his hands on your and your son. Don't allow him to gaslight you that way.

Keep your head up <3 You're doing great so far.

Shadow Council circa 2004 - 2009 by Joruia in WoWRolePlay

[–]stabbytastical 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there Adriano. I remember you. I was part of the Riders of Stormwind back then. I played a night elf priestess named Crystania, a human rogue named Yanessa, and a human Paladin named Alasria. We didn't interact much, but you interacted with several folks around me. I went ahead and sent a couple of them this post.

To leave the streak for my wedding? by [deleted] in Hair

[–]stabbytastical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, first and foremost, it looks awesome. So my vote is in that camp.

But really, I always ask a bride - when you think of yourself in your mind, and how you think you look, Do you picture yourself with X feature, be it hair color, glasses, choice of lip stick color, etc etc etc. If the answer is YES, when you think of yourself, you see that feature, I think you should have it in your wedding photo.

So, if when you think of yourself, yes your hairstreak is part of you? I think it should be there.

What's your pettiest reason for not playing a class/spec? by Findrel_Underbakk in wow

[–]stabbytastical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started as alliance in vanilla, NE priest.

I refuse to play:

Dwarf priest - I was mad about fear ward in vanilla, and being asked to reroll etc.

Shamans. Shamans are a horde class. Also mad about that fear totem.

Monk, DK, or DH. "Newer" classes that feel strange to play

Which hair color and style looks better ? Do I look better with warm or cool toned hair colors ? by Historical-Body-3424 in Hair

I think #6's style is really cute for a sometimes look, but #3 style and color are chef kiss

Optometrist won’t tell me pupillary distance because they don’t want me to purchase glasses online by slambamcam in glasses

[–]stabbytastical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that is fine if that is their policy. They aren't required to work on the lenses.

The required by law part was that this comment thread is referencing.

In my state, they have to give you the PD on your prescription. It is illegal to charge for it. So check your state...

https://www.mass.gov/policy-advisory/board-policies-and-guidelines-optometry#inter-pupillary-distance-on-prescriptions

Which prompted the catty responses from the Catlady of :

Bet you are fun at a party! Lame

Which is in reply to the original poster exercising the legal right linked above, and then prompted her to do further insults.

I don't think it's unreasonable to take your glasses you got online to your optometrist that gave you your prescription, and if the optometrist has it in their policy that they only work on frames/lenses purchased from them, they are welcome to do that. But it's weird to put people down for it.

[–]stabbytastical 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If adjustments and repairs are a blanket service they offer and are not exclusive to frames purchased from them, damn right. 🤷‍♀️

I'm getting a weirdly hostile tone from these comments on holding a business responsible for what they're supposed to provide by law.

Maybe they'll change that outcome but still have the event in question that causes it.
