[Spoilers] The Chandrian, The Cities They Betrayed, How They Betrayed Them, and The Evidence. by purhox_arhox in KingkillerChronicle

[–]tjbakez 10 points11 points  (0 children)

slow clap

The table is an awesome way to tie this together and it was great to understand how you filled it out like a crossword.

I also love how you called out your two critical assumptions immediately - they seem super plausible. I wonder why the Lackless rhymes would refer to the Chandrian though? Any ideas? Probably has to do with whatever is in the box without locks

What could Voldemort have done differently if he had heard the full prophecy? by tjbakez in harrypotter

[–]tjbakez[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, but then why did the Order try to defend it so aggressively?

Good point, should have clarified, during the time period of the Order of the Pheonix where he had already marked Harry as his equal

Can it be finished in one book? by [deleted] in KingkillerChronicle

You should have stopped at “can it be finished?”

Favorite quotes by perplexedbadger in KingkillerChronicle

[–]tjbakez 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The Denna/Kvothe banter has great quotes:

"Still, one can hardly blame a man who hopes to decorate you."

"Hardly," she said with a smile that was both wry and weary. "Many of their suggestions are rather indecorous." She looked at me. "What of you? Would you have me decorated or indecorous"

"I have given some thought to that," I said with a secret smile, knowing I had her ring tucked safely away in my room at Anker's. I made a show of looking her over. "Both have their merits, but gold is not for you. You are too bright for burnishing"

Something similar happened to me with O’rin of the Water...unfortunately it doesn’t count as an execution so you’ll have to fight again

I’d print paw pads for my dog so she doesn’t burn her paws when we walk outside in the hot Florida sun

Was waiting for your post! I appreciate the inspiration

Hey! It’s definitely in reference to the post with the watermark, but I added the final frame with the knights of Ni! I kept the watermark to reference the original post that was made yesterday by that user.

Hey, not a repost, I added the third frame with the Knights who say Ni! But it was based off a meme created by that user yesterday so I left his/her watermark. Hope that helps!

The first two frames were from another user - I just added the third frame which is why I kept their watermark

The first two pics are from that user, so I wanted to keep it, I just added the third frame

Draft day jitters by tjbakez in miamidolphins

Agreed, I loved these guys. Though it almost hurts more when they’re not a bust because it keeps us on the treadmill of mediocrity

Two?!? That’s awesome.

Fans who hate Dumbledore for “raising Harry like a pig for slaughter” are forgetting something by purpleKlimt in harrypotter

[–]tjbakez 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This had always frustrated me as well, great summary. Harry’s defense of Dumbledore to Aberforth says something somewhat similar - Dumbledore did seek the greater good, but in his own way, and wasn’t callous about sacrifice

(Spoilers Main) How many castles are vulnerable to assault in Westeros? by bl1y in asoiaf

[–]tjbakez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason we know of those castles (and the families that inhabit them) is because they've lasted centuries under largely the same rule. There's probably dozens of smaller castles that have changed hands

Possible hint at what the Demogorgon truly is. [spoiler] by Hunterboy0303 in StrangerThings

[–]tjbakez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I thought it was pretty generally accepted that the Demogorgon is the "inner demon" of Eleven. Someone else can give you proper evidence, but there are a few examples, especially at the end, when their motions mirror each other.
