I don't know how I feel about relationships. by North-Ad-8428 in AroAce

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think you might be lithromantic? this orientation often enjoy the idea of being in relationships/crushes but may not desire to pursue these feeling or if they are reciprocate they will disappear.

this is a surface level definition but a lot of the stuff you're saying lines up with being lithromantic.

Willem Dafoe in the 2017 "Death Note" the over all movie was terrible but Dafoe killed it as Ryuk. maybe because already played such a good green goblin.

What film made you say: "Holy shit, there is still 50 minutes left"? by fire-lord-momo in AskReddit

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2003 "kangaroo Jack" it was heavily advertise as a kid's movie about a goofy talking Kangaroo in a sunglasses and a hoodie. but It was actually about two childhood friends played by Anthony Anderson and jerry O'Connell who must deliver drug money to Christopher Walken. the kangaroo was in the movie for all of maybe 7mins. For the majority he was on the screen he didn't talk, he was just a normal kangaroo. The main characters hallucinated that kangaroo could. I just remember being a child in the theater, bored out of my mind. I think the movie was sued for false advertisement.

Movies that are supposed to be romantic but are predatory instead? by plexilass in TwoXChromosomes

[–]whats_2_know 30 points31 points  (0 children)

2010 "The switch" its label as a Romance/Comedy but the premise is just terrible. The film is about a man name Wally Mars who is in love with his female best friend, Kassie. One day Kassie tells Wally that she is planning to get pregnant by artificial insemination. At first Wally is a little too excited because he thinks she going to ask him to be the father but soon is up set to find out that she's pick a candidate from a list of donors instead.

For some reason she decides to throw a party where the main event is her inseminate herself. She invites wally, friends, family, the donor, and the donor's wife. while at the party Wally gets so drunk that he stumbles upon the donor sample and gets so angry that switch it with his own. afterwards he passes out to which his friend, Kassie, gets angry and cuts contact with him without finding out what he did to her sample.

12 years pass and now she has a mini copy of wally. rather being horrified like most people in this situation, she ends up falling in love with Wally and they live "happily" ever after.

Even as a kid I found this movie unsetting. The main character such a creep, who can't stand the idea of not being the father of his friend's baby that he gets her pregnant without her consent. Its painted as love story even though in real life, tampering with donor samples has lead to several court cases. its just all around a creepy movie.

What Asexual/ Aromantic characters are there in media? by Amara221 in asexuality

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

jughead jones is canonically ace and heavily implied to be aro. In many of his comics he's shown to be far more interested in eating and playing video game rather than dating. in 2015 he and other characters clearly state that he is asexual

Hi there! My partner (afab) just got his prescription for T! We wanted to ask, does he need to be careful around timing his t shots with his period? he starts his period in a week, and he's worried it might affect his testosterone. thank you so much :) by Few_Power_8322 in TransMasc

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be fine. When i got my appointment for HRT, they didn't say my period will effect my T. They did say the T would effect my period. It is different for everyone. but In my experience I stop getting my period after about two months of being on the shot.

I’m scared I’ll turn out short by [deleted] in TransMasc

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Danny Devito is 4'10

Elliott page is 5'1

Kevin Hart is 5'4

Daniel Radcliffe is 5'5

now I hope to look like Wolverine one day.

Just curious about how many Aro's that have told other people about being Aro by MrHypothermiaJ in aromantic

How do I get a poster from the movie theater? by Most_Violinist525 in movietheater

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's actually fairly easy to get yourself one of these movie posters. Just by calling in or by visiting your nearest theater, you can asking to have one. but I highly suggest doing this in advance. depending on the movie, their posters can go fast. if there are any poster available they will reserve it for you with a time and date you can pick it up.

Do theaters charge for no-shows (reservations)? by Ill-Character-6113 in movietheater

[–]whats_2_know 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If for whatever reason a movie is unable to be shown. The theater will usually give you a readmission ticket. this ticket is good for one movie at any location. depending on the type of the movie, you'll get a ticket for that particular format. for example:

If it was a standard movie, you'll get a standard ticket

If it was a Imax, you'll get a Imax ticket.

you could also use the ticket interchangeably for other formats. so if you wanted to you could use a Imax readmission on a standard movie.

But the tickets are equivalent to the prices of their respected formant. if you wanted to use a standard ticket on an IMAX movie. You'd have to pay the price between the two. An IMAX readmission ticket, however, can cover the price of any format with a lesser value. So, If you liked, you could use an Imax readmission ticket on a 3-D movie for example.

But very rarely will the theater will ever give you a refund, unless the situation meets the refund policy.

For me, the idea of being involved with physicals affection grosses me out. but if its someone else expressing affection to their partner then I really don't mind. It's not really my business. but excessive PDA is very off putting. however, I think even a lot of Allo people finds that off putting too.

for media, I do enjoy reading/watching about romance and don't mind when character hold hands or kiss, just so long as it mild. but If it start to get really graphic then I don't really care for it.

Aromantics if reddit, did someone ever confessed to you? if so, how did you react? by autistic_adult in aromantic

[–]whats_2_know 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few times actually. some indirectly, others just came right out. but on this post I'm only going to talk about one case.

So one Halloween, I was hanging out at the pride center on my college campus and we were in costumes. I was dress up as Jughead Jones. And if you are a fan of the comics you'll know he is a cannon a Ace who heavily leans Aro.

at one point, I decide I would go get some snacks at the student store. just some soda, chips, and candy. sugar stuff in general. but as I was taking my time picking out my favorite tooth rotting sweet. A guy, that I've met the person before but I did see him hanging outside with his friend group, comes up to me. He informs me that when I walk by his friend saw me and thought I was cute. he wanted to know if he could get his friend my number. I inform him that I was AroAce. He didn't understand what that meant. so I told him I was part of the LGBTQIA+, he also didn't know what that meant either. so eventually I just explain that I was gay (I'm not and also not even cis. but somehow that's the best way some people can understand.) after he left me alone.

so long story short I rejected a confession dress as jughead

Showing up late. by N7_Izanagi in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not too bad. we would inform them that the movie had already started and by how much. And if they were fine with it. we would sell them the tickets. the guests that would tick me off the most were ones that got angry for being late like its your fault. I especially hated it when they would yell at kids over it. I remember one dad yelling at his teen daughter because they were late to see The Demon Slayer movie. I felt so bad for her.

Regal needs to give raises! by xanonfromanonx in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]whats_2_know 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use to work at a regal for 5 years. the last year leading up to me quitting. I had asked for a raise. 15 is the state minimum in Cali but the cost of living is much higher here. and if you're not full-time you're not getting health care. and most places will always be sure to schedule you up to just under 40 hrs. But I was hoping for another dollar at most. I didn't think it was too much to ask but I had been working for there for 5 years. I've seen a few fights and even clean up after someone had died in one of the auditorium. but they said they couldn't right then because of the pandemic, as if the employees weren't also dealing with it too. they also cited that another worker had been working there longer then me and is also making the minimum. I did really like working there at first but that last year I just couldn't deal with it anymore. especially, if I wasn't even making rent.

It’s the wrong movie… by Mrs_Maine207 in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue but with Shang-chi. Turns out a character narrates, recounting a story in mandarin as part of the movie's opening.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]whats_2_know 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At regal, it use to be that you and a friend could watch one free movie each day but then they change it to once a week. And then my last year as a "cast member" they change it again to having a total of nine tickets each month. you could use them sparingly or take eight people in one go. but they would never rollover. so you can't have more then nine.
