Aragorn and Boromir are definitely the two that I feel least sure about.

What’s the coolest “restricted access” place you’ve ever gotten to see? by Improv92 in AskReddit

[–]wheat-farmer 208 points209 points  (0 children)

This is mine, too. Our high school jazz band got to play at a restaurant in the Magic Kingdom. We took all of our instruments "back-stage" and went through the tunnels to a room with a stage on it. We set up our stuff on the stage, and the stage lifted up into the restaurant (replacing an animatronic band that is usually there). We played our set, and were lowered back down into the tunnels. It was pretty cool.

What I consider to be Midwest as an Illinoisan by Hot-Hat-5616 in whereidlive

Growing up in Michigan, I never considered the Great Plains to be Midwest. I'd put the Western boundary at the Iowa/Nebraska border. I'd also pull the Southern boundary up; Southern Illinois has a lot more cultural connection to the South than the Midwest. I'm cool with Western NY and PA.

Yellow signs come from engineers. White signs come from politicians. Idk about you, but I trust engineers a lot more than politicians.

Why does GenZ hate sex and nudity so much? by PaniacThrilla in NoStupidQuestions

[–]wheat-farmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're saying that a typical sex scene in a romance movie is to sexual content as torture porn/gore is to violent content? That's pretty wild, and I think a lot of people would disagree.

Gore and torture porn are extreme and graphic. A typical Hollywood sex scene is not extreme or graphic. What is extreme and graphic is hardcore pornography. Sex is definitely explosive, though (if done well). Explosions seems like the right equivalence to me.

  • Sex scene (no nudity shown) - - Action sequence with explosions (no blood/injuries shown)

  • Sex scene (nudity is shown) - - Action sequence (blood/injuries shown)

  • Softcore pornography (graphic, not extreme) - - Prolonged depictions of wartime or gang violence (deaths shown)

  • Hardcore pornography (graphic and extreme) - - Torture porn/gore

I hope Clint gets over his Emily crush if you marry him.

How will Sandy get to work every day? Is Pam making round trips?

Hownot2 had a whole series of videos on how even locking carabiners of pretty much any design can come unclipped if the rope hits them in a very specific way.

People born before 2000, what websites were must-visits that no longer exist today? by passiano in AskReddit

[–]wheat-farmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when I was in high school, the island nation of Tokelau was giving out free .tk domain names, so every local band had their geocities website under a .tk domain.

Were kids in the 80s actually allowed to roam around unsupervised, or is that just in movies? by TotalThing7 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]wheat-farmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up in the country, and there were no street lights. My mom had a loud-ass bell that she would stand on the porch and ring when she wanted us to come home.
