From the jump, I wasn’t as emotionally engaged in the fighting because when they did that first initial pan through the battle lines, I thought to myself “why do you have loaded catapults with fire baskets already lit but not one goddamn soul standing next to any of them? Where are the catapult teams? Are they…

The cherry on top of the sheer awesomeness of that whole scene for me is the genuine joy on Thor’s face when he yells “I knew it!” Back then, the hammer tremble was a challenge, a threat - we could see in his expression that he was daunted and worried about it. But this time around, it’s a validation and an…

That’s the kid who helps Stark in Iron Man 3. We had the same question, and the internet confirmed our suspicions.

I legitimately didn’t even notice the nose ring as I was so distracted by the thing glued to his face masquerading as a beard.

Agreed. My only thought was “how the frell did they get off the top of the wall that quick” given that they’d have to carefully climb down a mile of ice wreckage or hike to the next tower.

Because putting your name on large monuments is totally the only way to ensure you’re remembered.

Not gonna lie, most weekends the only reason I log onto Jezebel is for the shelter cat update post. :D Thank you for your service!

I’m thinking I should have phrased it more as “you are likely not the target demographic for that plot sequence and it’s pretty clear from the comments.”

Yes, I would.

While I get where you’re coming from, I am 100% positive you are of the dude persuasion.

As an Old who doesn’t get the whole “private Stories on Instagram”, I want to roll my eyes a little bit at that because there’s never anything truly private on the internet. But honestly, whatever gets her through.

But how does she feel about exposed ankles?!? The world evidently needs to know her unsolicited opinion about that too!

Preach. I wouldn’t consider any of them the Great American Novel but clearly they provide happy reading for a ton of people. I have no doubt it’s a full time job, and a serious work ethic, to produce that many books per year. She may have a formula, but it’s a very successful one.

The most fascinating thing, for me, is finding out she’s a real, singular individual. She’s so incredibly prolific my friends and I fully believed “Nora” consisted of a group of writers just using the same pen name. 

I mean. If you make the deliberate choice to work for evil but are “terrified they would find out that I was one of the so-called evil people” then maybe it’s time to re-evaluate your life choices and possibly your decision-making process.

Same. The first thing I did was turn off all the other player functionality in the settings; the reason I play the game is for its solitary aspects.

I would echo this and add, the second year may also be an issue and may bear vigilance as well. The second year was hardest, emotionally, for me. Anecdata aside they don’t call it the Sophomore Slump for nothing.

Nope, not unreasonable. You’re setting boundaries for your own mental and physical health. Boundaries are good. I’ve had to set some with my mother and she similarly doesn’t get it, so we aren’t in contact much at all. The hardest part I had about all of it was giving up on the ideal of what I thought our relationship…

Also, the people in Flint, Michigan who are *still* dealing with undrinkable water.

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.
