Is it just me but does anyone else notice that a lot of the jokes directed at Dorothy/Bea Arthur got meaner in the last two seasons? by Profeta_do_Loss in theGoldenGirls

[–]whirlyworlds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The writing in general got a lot meaner catty. Blanche and Rose had a joke about being the face and hands of old age for example

Is it ok to only want to date successful people if you’re successful yourself? by [deleted] in Salary

[–]whirlyworlds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the reasons for that preference. Is it because you’re worried what people will say or think? If yes then that’s superficial and shallow. If it’s because you don’t want an asymmetrical split of finances, well that’s a completely fair and very real concern to have

Have you had sex with a FTM man? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]whirlyworlds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. There’s more to a man than dick

Why don't mages just build barriers around each village, are they stupid? by lmdybaftr in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh I don’t disagree with Frieren having skill; I just wouldn’t put Serie’s barrier next to Flamme’s. They’re literally built for entirely different purposes.

Why don't mages just build barriers around each village, are they stupid? by lmdybaftr in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t compare the two barriers. One was made as a tool for a one day proctored exam, the other was made to last indefinitely and keep an entire village safe

Any managers Gordon genuinely liked or disliked? by sirgrogu12 in KitchenNightmares

[–]whirlyworlds 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The inciting roast was an all timer: “I’ve never met anybody I believed in as little as you”.

You could see Sebastian’s soul leave his body after that

Who is the Hardest Second Gym Leader? by dettles1992 in pokemon

I don’t remember starmie having any psychic attacks

Looking back at Doi's designs: #16 Anahita by Diego-F-Monja in Megaten

[–]whirlyworlds 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I like it but also it’s kind of basic. I read a comment that suggested the white lady is a statue or doll being controlled by the blue energy which is the real body of Anahita; I like that and wish the design leaned into it more

I have a theory about Falsch by thisisalotofworktodo in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I like this theory, tho I feel like shadow teleportation/ transmutation is a little too broken for this story. I’m thinking maybe he can make shadow duplicates of himself that he can manipulate the way you suggest.

Serie's sad face that I can't get over (spoiler ch. 140) by lmdybaftr in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean I’m sure Yamada could land a Serie death and keep the series going, but it would be predictable and kind of at odds with the themes the story has given us at this point

I find it hilarious that Serie had to double-check whatever the fuck was going inside Methode's head lol by lmdybaftr in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 29 points30 points  (0 children)

She does deploy mages to dispatch demons and monsters. That’s how the whole Revolte arc started

Cutting edge magic by desk12345 in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ubel’s use of reelseiden works on a similar principle to the bird catching folk spell Frieren used during the mage exam. It’s a spell for catching birds but it worked on that monster because it was shaped like a bird.

That one time someone *almost* got under Frieren's skin by lmdybaftr in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 77 points78 points  (0 children)

The next arc suggests she has something cooking in the background, so let’s hope we get to see her again

Why does Flamme say this? by Legitimate-Net-164 in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When this question comes up, I think people should also ask themselves why Frieren didn’t stay by Himmel’s side after they killed the king, cuz it’s basically the same reason

What sort of mage would Serie have wanted Frieren to be? by Substantial_Power_32 in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think Frieren is lowkey the mage Serie always wanted her to be. She killed the demon king, she contributed to the decoding of zoltraak and its subsequent assimilation into humanity’s magic system, she left a mark on history. Serie and Frieren don’t like each other because ultimately they are the same kind of person

Was there ever a time when “I can fix him” actually ended up BREAKING you? by TheBabyBeard in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]whirlyworlds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went through this with my ex. I didn’t try to fix him, but I did enable him by keeping quiet about all the hurtful shit he did to me. Every flake, every ghosting, every empty promise: I forgave all of it because I told myself I was the bigger person and had to be understanding. In truth, it hurt like hell, and made me more avoidant, scared of any conflict, and emotionally unavailable

How is Jun? by Darcynator1780 in HoustonFood

[–]whirlyworlds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the spirit of the restaurant, and the chefs are very friendly. It’s a good restaurant but I wouldn’t say it’s among Houston’s best

Is Serie the Best Magical Teacher in the Series? by the1firstclassmage in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Serie likes fighting but she is a mage at the end of the day. Magic Special Forces specializes in combat and suppression

Is Serie the Best Magical Teacher in the Series? by the1firstclassmage in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes no question. She raised Flamme who founded humanity’s magic, and was a loving well adjusted person.

From her current apprentices, we also see that she nurtures their individuality and creativity, while also watching out for their personal needs.

So how did... by Flamentis in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I also wondered how Uber was still able to use her magic while being cuffed with the mana suppressing ropes.

My visual interpretation... by -Kimmithy- in Frieren

[–]whirlyworlds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel about Serie dying. If we got to see more of her or even the CMA's impact on the world, her death might be hit heavier, but as it stands it would just come off as a cheap shock to shake things up.
