Susaga,

In that movie, he tells Kevin to go down the hall and to the left. Kevin turns right and reaches his destination. Trump had one line, and it was a lie.

Susaga,

It’s tragic, but it isn’t surprising. They were really hoping for another hit like Saints Row, and they just didn’t get it. Sad to see them go, none the less.

Susaga,

“According to all known laws of aviation…”

Susaga,

This is secretly a meme about how badly you’re getting ripped off on arcane foci. You don’t need crystal balls AND staves, and you don’t need them monthly. Even if you did, an orb is the most expensive at 20 gp. And who buys a new magic mirror every month?

Susaga,

Sorry, you think it’s suspicious they put a cross on a new version of a product when the previous version had a cross on it in the exact same position? It’s just a modern, minimalist design like you see just about everywhere else. Also, Werner Herzog was born in Munich in 1942, so he’s also a German who’s been around since WW2, but that doesn’t make the guy a Nazi.

Susaga,

I find it extremely funny how you asked a question, received an answer of “no”, and then started arguing with everyone about how the answer is actually yes. The answer is no.

You cannot expect to be taken seriously when you’re arguing that a minimalist cross outline in red is the same as a black cross with a white outline, but it’s totally not the same as a red cross. And that black cross outlined in white is totally different to a grey cross outlined in white that uses the same name.

There was probably no discussion because only you saw the connection, and it’s a VERY tenuous connection at that.

Susaga,

You could have just said “Ryanair” and that’s all the description you need. Ryanair is designed by assholes. They deliberately designed every element of their business to squeeze pennies out of you for services other airlines offer for no cost at all. And they seem in no rush to tell you about these things until the last possible moment, just so they can catch you off guard and add a last minute charge.

Susaga,

“Welcome to Ryanair! As a forward thinking company, we have added a hoop for you to jump through for your convenience! Only £5 per jump! …Oh, no, the only way to board the plane is to use the hoop. But for an additional fee, we will extinguish the fire before you jump!”

Susaga,

Just imagine if someone used this die, but didn’t tell anyone.

“Okay, what did you get on your attack roll?”
“Better not tell you now”
“Wow, that must be really bad, huh?”

“What did you get on your initiative?”
“Yes”
“Huh?”

Susaga,

This is a community for tabletop RPGs. There are no autosaves in D&D.

Susaga,

I can’t help but notice how rarely actors become crime-fighting billionaires.

Susaga,

“You are aware that I am not actually a wizard”

Susaga,

Fun fact: Bob Ross used to be a drill sergeant, and he thought exactly like you do.

Susaga,

We did address your question. We said no. You started twisting the question to try and get the answer you wanted. We still said no. Actors have a strong enough sense of reality and fiction that they do not take on the traits of their characters, good or bad. Beyond that, you have to be humble as fuck to regularly play a character everyone’s meant to hate, and it’s not uncommon for hero actors to develop a hell of an ego. This is your answer.

Susaga,

One person said yes (and literally nothing else). Nobody said maybe. Everyone else said no. You are the only person who thinks it bears further discussion. I checked.

What's a 'dirty word' that you hate hearing when it's used to describe something or someone?

I hate the word ‘Consumer’ or I mockingly call it ‘CONSOOMER’. Because that’s to imply everyone in the world is just cattle, but with wallets. We’re no longer customers. We’re consumers now. And a consumer’s purpose is to consume shit, whatever is put out there. Got money? Shut up and consume, it’s what...

Susaga,

There was an OSPod (Overly Sarcastic Productions), and Blue mentioned how they’re content creators, not influencers. Red then corrected him that the correct term is artist.

Susaga,

“Addict”. No need to specify heroin unless it’s important to the conversation, and then you can just say “heroin addict”.

Susaga,

Addicts are people. They can be both. I don’t feel the need to point this out. It’s like how you don’t say “person who acts” when you can just say “actor”. Heck, you used the term “doctor” and not “person who heals”. Some people definitely try to ignore the human behind the term, but they do that with every term because they’re shit and don’t want to treat people with respect.

Susaga,

The issue with this type of conspiracy is that it seems a little too optimistic. If there was a secret organisation with the power and cunning to control the entire world in secret, then you’d expect they’d do a better job of running the place. Right now, the economy is in shambles, there’s wars just about everywhere, and the planet is on fire. I doubt anyone who can put the world in a condition this bad could keep a secret from literally everyone.

Susaga,

I’m not denying there are rich assholes who profit from disasters, but there’s no master plan. There’s no group with total control over the world. The vultures are pecking at the same carcass, but they definitely didn’t kill the beast. If they were strong enough to kill it, then why are they fighting each other over the scraps?

The conspiracy is a pipe-dream that there’s someone in control of a world constantly thrown into chaos. It’s a belief that the pilot is in control of the plane and this turbulence is just them having a bit of fun, even as the engines catch on fire. I’d love to be idealistic enough to believe this could be true, but I can feel the heat coming off of the engines and I can hear the pilot yelling at his co-pilot about who gets to fly.

Susaga, (edited )

Bards make fantastic villains. They can be the puppetmaster whispering in the ears of leaders to cause wars, or they can be the flashy conqueror who gives a villainous musical number instead of a monologue.

Edit: Give the villain Vicious Mockery, and have them use it liberally. The players will want them dead.

Susaga,

A goldfish. Just the fish. Ask them to name it on the spot so they have to keep it. Now they need to rearrange their home to make space, and buy a tank and such for it.

Plus, it’s cheap, so not much of a refund going on if they decide to just give it back.

Is Lemmy a biased platform?

Hi new user here. I’ve been checking out Lemmy but the amount of bias is ruining it for me. For example the front page right now has 7 out of 20 submissions that contain the word Trump in a negative context. I don’t care about Trump but when the front page is all political posts attacking Trump I have to wonder about the...

Susaga,

If you walk into a room and ask “hey, are you shit?”, then someone’s going to tell you to fuck off. That doesn’t prove your point, because you had it coming.

Susaga,

“mass downvoting with no response” except for all the responses, it seems. Oh, but those don’t support your victimhood narrative, so I guess those don’t count.

Susaga,

I feel like you’ve mistaken “disagrees with you and says as much” for “authoritarian control.” You’re perfectly welcome to have a different view on whether you should stick your hand into an open flame, but don’t be surprised if people say it’s not a reasonable opinion. Maybe I’m just biased against sticking hands into fire, though.

Susaga,

Because 10 year old me didn’t know how to spell in japanese.

Susaga,

Ross and Rachel were absolutely on a break at the time, and Ross was fairly certain Rachel was spending the night with someone else. He was absolutely in the clear for sleeping with that girl.

Which makes it frustrating that they focused on it being a break, because everything else Ross did was completely in the wrong.

He was overbearing and paranoid, regularly invading Rachel’s life to assert his dominance in front of guys who do not care. Rachel was regularly humiliated by him, and you can’t blame her from needing time to recover.

After the incident, Ross made bold lies straight to Rachel’s face, and spent the entire episode trying to keep it a secret. Finding out about the incident from Gunther was the icing on the cake of humiliation.

Then later, Ross told yet another lie to Rachel in pursuit of what he saw as easy sex with his dream girl, then claimed that he was justified for it because she was too wordy. And he only admitted his lie when he felt his ego was threatened.

Ross ruined the relationship because sleeping with the copy girl was the only thing he wasn’t in the wrong for.

What movies, books or tv shows are meant to spoof/parody a particular genre while actually being a great example of the genre?

The 3 that come to mind for me are Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The Princess Bride. All three are poking fun at their respective genres but also are great examples of the genre. I’m curious if Lemmy has other such examples.

Susaga,

There is a curse in the Star Trek movies where every other movie in the franchise is terrible. The first one is bad, the second is good, the third is bad, and so on. This almost fits perfectly, but it inverts from the 10th movie onwards. The 9th is bad, the 10th is bad, the 11th is decent, the 12th is bad…

However, if you add Galaxy Quest into the line up, then it’s the good Star Trek movie between the 9th and 10th, and the pattern holds.

Susaga,

Scream is the perfect answer because Scary Movie didn’t get the joke and assumed it was a normal slasher, so they tried to make a parody of it.

Susaga,

And Reddit, too! They really covered their bases.

Susaga,

Hardcore rawdog bareback fucking is part of first base. They just take the “life” part of “sex life” seriously.

Susaga,

Oxygen? What’s that? Is that some stupid elven word for air? We’ve got plenty of air, and it’s got nothing to do with shrubs!

Susaga,

Raise your hoes and raise your voice!

Chant, chant, chant with me

Susaga,

One time, I was trying to think of a fun way to have a Las Vegas style location in a D&D campaign, so I googled Las Vegas D&D and found a thread where someone in Vegas wanted to run a module. The thread was titled “Curse of Strahd in Las Vegas”, and that sent my mind to some interesting places.

Susaga,

“Thanks to the mists, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Forever.”

Susaga,

I would absolutely recommend keeping the waiting period, and not just because of biased hot takes. We’ve all seen drama stories where the context changes radically in a very short time, and even the basic premise of the drama might change. If we keep the waiting period, we have a better chance of having the FULL story in a single post without needing update posts every week as the story unfolds.

With my recent de-modding and ban from the DnDMemes sub, I now have plenty of time to touch grass and help grow this community/instance. AMA I guess? (ttrpg.network)

For the record, I fully support what the remaining mod team is doing, they are a wonderful group and I trust them completely. I don’t regret the choices I made, only that my actions got a few other mods shit canned in the process.

Susaga,

This is the fediverse. It’s a bunch of different instances federating with each other, sharing content but remaining individual. That way, no one instance can pull a reddit and go mad with power.

Susaga,

You fool! You’ve forgotten the best one: creating characters based on eye-rollingly bad puns!
