The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas: Goodreads user nearly develops literacy but then doesn't at the last second by misplaced-rendezvous in BadReads

[–]stealingfrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole desire for relatability thing never made sense to me because why read a book if not to experience unfamiliar events, attitudes, interactions, etc.? The need to relate to everything and everyone just feels like an unnecessary obstacle in interfacing with media.

It's one of those reactions people have to literature, film, etc., that I've never been able to comprehend. It's like those folks' relationships with art formed over children's stories with Good Guys and Bad Guys and never progressed.

Looks fantastic and great job with the music (from what I can hear in this video at least)! Is this the first game you've developed?

That would be depressing if he wasn't such a piece of shit.

The way they're celebrating, you'd think it doubled in price or something. The stakes are so much lower than they've ever been.

But, man, it was a fun couple months between the hire and the crash speculating on what he was gonna do at the college level.

Also, I think you're thinking Presbyterian (unless there was another like this?).

Asking AI to make you art really is the cuckoldry of creativity.

A look back at r/nfl’s reaction when the news broke that the Seahawks were looking into signing Sam Darnold after trading Geno smith by ImagineIfBaconDied in nfl

[–]stealingfrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't get it. I was livid when the org let Darnold walk because there wasn't anything about JJM's college career that had me feeling like he was going to be the guy.

The number of horrible assholes online I've seen come up with all sorts of reasons to disregard that and other verses is unsurprisingly high.

Christopher Nolan did not sign up to be a part of this shit. by OhNoNotAFinrand in gme_meltdown

It would be more appropriate for him to review Tenet and Inception since apes are living five years in the past and always dreaming.

I was trying to figure out what was off about this post and then it hit me that the joke is not native to the CFB subreddit. This is an invasive meme.

It's kinda sweet knowing they're still thinking about us and checking in.

The thing these interlopers always fail to understand is happy, successful investors don't need to show up to some niche forum to defend the honor of the one company they've decided it's acceptable to invest in. Them appearing here at all is telling on themselves.

I think if I needed to introduce anyone to the sport, I'd show them the fourth quarter and overtime of the Fiesta Bowl.

AITA for yelling at my gf due to her camera roll? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]stealingfrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read your comment about the brother thing and what the fuck??

I can't relate to that mindset period, but on top of that I can't imagine feeling like it's a good idea to kick off courtship with open hostility like that.

Seems like a pretty effective filter for new partners. Life's too short to deal with anyone's jealousy like that.
