    I'd at least expect a book deal for MTG. You know we can't resist a good tell-all story. You know everyone, no matter how demonized they become nowadays, gets a small little niche fanbase who'll support them no matter what. Just depends how she attempts to brand herself- as a brave woman who...

    My comments about the armor were, admittedly, a bit purposely flippant. History was one of the only subjects in school I really gave a heck about, and you best believe my ADHD ass was daydreaming up the frickin' coolest scenarios, regardless of how goofy looking some of that armor looked. Did...

    The period-accurate armor looks like when a kid can't afford a certain Halloween costume and has to shoddily make it at home from leftover materials. Like, I get that that's what they had back then, but I feel like if I showed up to a costume party in that, it would only end in me getting an...

    Oh, so when he eats 5 Subway footlongs, it's "content" and "cool", but when I do it, I've "let myself go" and "need help". Ah, man. That was my favorite part! We can't even eat yoga mats anymore because of Woke. Thanks, Obama!

    That's actually been me recently. It's funny, as a fellow southern/midwestern boy, I used to try and avoid my natural inclination to go southern with my accent when we moved away from Texas. My mom's had an accent all her life and, while it definitely went away for a bit upon moving elsewhere...

    So torn on this one. Doesn't look bad, per se, but I don't know if it looks good, either. Definitely looks a little.... cheap? Too clean resolution-wise? Don't get me wrong- I'm totally okay with them taking a few little liberties with the story to make the necessary changes to fit the screen-...

    She dis on my ting until I guish on that establishment. Why you lookin'? 😏 Unless you meant it the other way, in which case....meh. I'm like the Sisyphus of Ass- doomed to eternally drag all this cake around, but it'll ultimately get me nowhere. God, I really have gotten this thread off...

    I kept Worthy Cap and Infinity War Thor, personally. That's, in my opinion, where each one feels the most powerful/has their standout moment. IW Thor could definitely use an upgrade, but he holds up well enough for me.

    Well, my hands aren't the thing that's stiff. But it could be worked into my hands. We're talking about the same thing, right?

    We used to get in trouble at one of my old restaurant jobs if we'd greet a table with both men and women as "guys". We'd have to say "folks"- "How are you folks doing today?", etc. Back then I wasn't sure if it was just some midwest respect thing, but as I get older, I see that it was probably...

    That's a relief. It's a title I wear with pride. You'd have to pry this booty from my cold, dead hands.

    Oh, absolutely. That was my intended stance, even if it didn't come across that way. I've never expected anyone to cater or bow to my weird, ever-changing boundaries with my trauma. I don't even fully understand it half the time; I can't expect others to, and certainly can't get mad at them for...

    Ah, hell. Is this a Highlander situation? Can there only be 1 Booty Master? I'm willing to split the title. You take one cheek, I take the other. When working together, we can conquer anything (but mostly dat butt).

    One of the things I hate most is when creators bow too much to fan demands. A little fan service here and there is fine- encouraged, even, especially if it doesn't effect the overall story or message, but relenting too much compromises the integrity of the thing (assuming it was even all that...

    "Booty" is my middle name, and, coincidentally what I majored in in college. I have a Bachelor's in Booty, a PhD in Posterior Studies, an Ass-ociates. I truly was top of my class in bottom studies.

    Well, to follow up on my previous post about the Mace vs. Palpy pack- I got a notice today from FedEx that the item was sent back to Pulse. Which means it was just sitting in a warehouse this whole time. But apparently they couldn't tell me that? According to the multiple FedEx people I spoke...

    Yarrr! I'll vouch for Pirate Ship too. It's saved me precious booty from bein' pillaged and plundered on these treacherous waters. Now high shipping rates can walk the plank, thanks to Pirate Ship! (not sponsored, I just like talking like a pirate)

    Sorrrrta? Too lazy to use the spoiler tags again, so if you haven't watched it and somehow don't know, look away. He's the easiest explanation for the Prince Who Was Promised, and being a Targaryen, is literally a child of "ice and fire" , he's the one who warns of the White Walkers, who...

    Oh, the Onion. It's been the only way I can stomach some of the news this past decade or so, even if the line between satire and reality is constantly narrowing.

    Yep, 8. The original plan (or at least one of them) was 7 seasons- they mentioned "7 seasons, like the 7 kingdoms", but then it became clear there was more story than 7 would allow. I think George had said, either during the show or some time after, that there was technically enough remaining...

    GoT, for me, is tricky, because like I said- I do genuinely believe that, for the most part, where all the characters ended up is where they were meant to, at least as written by George. I wanna say that Benioff and Weiss said they knew from pretty early on where the story ended, so even if they...

    I figured the proper response, to prove myself as one of the cool guys, was to say "69, my dudes", give 'em the ol' "Hang Loose" hand sign, down a Capri Sun, and then shred some gnar on my board.

    Think they look pretty good. I'm sure they're basing Link off the newer games, but I'd still love to see him don his cap at some point. My biggest question is if they'll have him speak or not. Would feel strange to me. Then again, no stranger than Chris Pratt's voice coming out of Mario, I suppose.

    Everything sounds better when explained by a gentle Englishman. Perhaps the real 6-7 were the friends we made along the way.
