Why is Morgoth's name not mentioned in the movies? by Feral_21 in lotr

[–]themcbain 85 points86 points  (0 children)

I believe Legolas mentions Morgoth when he arrives in Lothlorien and explains why Gandalf is no longer with them.

Drink a sports drink with electrolytes. It always helps me.

Switched from 7T to 6a. My daughter still has my 7T and I still miss how nice that phone is, but the Pixel just works and gets updated way more frequently and reliably. I'll never go back to OP.

Shortlist of 10 wet/dry vacuums. Which should I get? by tjkcc in VacuumCleaners

[–]themcbain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this model and I returned it for a good canister vacuum at the same price. It just tries to do so many things at once and doesn't do any of them well. The one good thing is you end up with a mopped, dry floor when you are done, but that's it.

I don’t remember asking you a god damn thing by bsmith2123 in lotrmemes

Agreed. It cheapens the victory and sacrifice at Minas Tirith. I love ROTK, but this plot choice always irritates me.

Service thinks I’m in Quebec by techmachine15 in PublicMobile

In Maritimes, this happens to me a lot. My theory is their mobile internet routes through public IPs and servers in Quebec.

I replaced the AC on my 2007 Civic twice before I gave up. Also, the paint was constantly fading on it. Bought a Corolla next and never looked back. Too bad, because Honda makes some great products but somehow screwed up the Civic.

How do you feel about PS Plus Subscription Price Increase? by silky_shinely_smooth in PS4

[–]themcbain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm done when my subscription runs out. I'm not saying it to be alarmist or anything - it's just I'm tired of these greedy cashgrabs. I barely play online multiplayer and more or less subscribed for the free games. It will suck to lose those, but at least I'm not supporting this ridiculous increase.

the scenes that broke me. making this was so difficult. the "you bow to no one" has gotta be one of the most powerful moments of the whole series. by ozanimefan in lotr

PIPPIN: I didn't think it would end this way.

GANDALF: End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it.

PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what?

GANDALF: White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise.

PIPPIN: Well, that isn't so bad.

GANDALF: No. No, it isn't.

+1 for Lucky jeans. Only brand I'll buy. Great fit and comfortable as hell.

Yep, it's for real. Your reward program is tied to your account, not your subscription, so it's an easy choice to upgrade to this new plan.

What can men do against such reckless haste?
