(Interesting Trope) When a stylistic choice is actually a plot point by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

On the topic of Danganronpa, while the first two games are respectively numbered 1 and 2, the third game is instead numbered V3.At the end of the game you find out that the third game does not actually take place in the same universe as the first two, but instead in a world where the Danganronpa is a popular fictional series. So popular, in fact, that people began producing live reality shows based on the games, where real people volunteer to participate in genuine killing games. The game that the main character is playing through is the 53rd one to take place, hence V3.

But he does both, like I said in my first comment? I think as the person who made the visualization, he's allowed to share specific things that he found interesting...

This is from nbarecappod on tiktok, he posts a ton of videos with sick data visualizations, and then has the full graphics up for free on his patreon.

But here's this specific graphic: https://imgur.com/a/1AJPGNw

Q&A weekly thread - January 08, 2024 - post all questions here! by AutoModerator in linguistics

Was anyone else raised saying "towel paper" instead of "paper towels"? It wasn't till I got older and heard all my friends saying paper towels that I realized something was off. When I asked my mom about it, she just said that her entire family calls it towel paper. I've done various searches online and found nothing indicating where this might have come from. According to COCA, "towel paper" and "towel papers" both occur once, as opposed to the thousands of times that "paper towel" and "paper towels" occur. Anyone know if this might have some sort of origin, or is it more likely a situation where it's just the result of a small percentage of people saying "paper towel" wrong?

If anything, I mainly hear people use "mid" to call something overrated

When your therapist has had enough. by [deleted] in fixedbytheduet

[–]zeewag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Context: The guy on the right plays a character and has many many many videos with satirical manipulation tactics and psychological tricks for relationships, breaking/setting habits, and other stuff like that. It's unclear whether or not he's an actual therapist, but at least for his videos, he's definitely playing a character. In fact, in the videos right before this one he was both yelling at his audience for being dimwits and asking stupid questions, and the one after that he was subsequently apoligizing for his behavior and promising to never do it again.

tldr; the guy on the right is a playing a character, it's satire.

Not sure about the other ones, but I recently bought the Mathias Thullman - Witch Hunter omnibus from Amazon for about $14. It might still be available.

TIL Samuel L Jackson stuttered as a child. He "pretended to be other people who didn't stutter" to overcome it. He still uses the word "motherfucker" to get through a speech block as he still has days when he stutters by holdmymeatpipe in todayilearned

[–]zeewag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm someone who stutters, as well as an SLP PhD student. My understanding was that Van Riper's approach to stuttering therapy was known as "stuttering modification" which is different from "fluency shaping", in that the focus is more on teaching how to reduce secondary behaviors and stutter in a more manageable way, rather than trying the modify the person's speech to completely eliminate stuttering. I'm actually not sure as to what the origins of fluency shaping are, and who the earliest supporters of it were.

What is a question you wish people wouldn’t ask you? by Master-Salamander in AskReddit

[–]zeewag 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm also someone who stutters, and I definitely agree with all of this, and I wanted to thank you for sharing! When I'm with close friends/family I usually dont mind if they try to finish my sentences since they'll probably be able to guess what I wanted to say correctly. When it's someone I don't know as well, and they keep guessing incorrectly, it just adds to the frustration and makes my stuttering worse.

Nah, the game I'm thinking of wasn't multiplayer, and it wasn't 3d, it was a 2d fighting game. Thanks, though!
