Ha, I’d forgotten all about that dumb “laser guns are somehow not as bad as bullet guns” thing. But I went back and it seems more like they implied a real gun for this one. There’s only a single shot fired and there’s a flash but it looks more like a gun barrel flash than laser light. There’s also a distinct bang.…
Good catch.
IIRC the earliest explanations for his hatred were little soliloquies by JJJ explaining how Spider-Man’s greatness made him feel like he could never match up, so he had to bring him down (aka the Luthor defense)
Surprised to learn JJJs wife was alive until 2014 in Comics. The 90s animated series used her death as his motivation as well, explaining that she was gunned down by masked men in a drive by meant for him and ever since he’s hated masked men.
I mean, it’s cool to find out that Hera survives the entire rebellion, but even leaving aside the “so what was she up to during the entire trilogy” question, how many freaking generals did the Rebels need at the battle of Endor. Is Luke Skywalker the only person who isn’t a general or Admiral at this point? And if so…
Honestly, I liked his Hobgoblin better. I wish he could have done more with it.
I clearly (thankfully) missed that, when did this happen in the comics?
The French are so super particular about their appellations that this is actually written into the Treaty of Versailles. They literally would not stop fighting WWI until the world stopped calling their sparkling wines Champagne. But! The US never ratified the treaty and so for decades sleazy producers called their…
CNN is reporting the official White House transcript is edited to say Governor, how is that even legal?
Yeah I don’t advocate this as a general introduction, just saying there might be practical reasons you’d need to point it out in advance, like maybe there’s paperwork to prep for employing a foreign national or maybe you want to remind your colleagues that she’s quite brilliant even if she’s not fully fluent in…
It’s not the words it’s the usage. If I said to my colleagues “Ms. X will be joining us today, she is an Asian immigrant” I am stating facts that perhaps are relevant for some reason. HOWEVER If next week she texts me to say she’ll be late and I inform everyone else by saying “the Asian immigrant will be late” I’m…
Your scenario involves solely memory and talking to people in person. You can’t “forget” the name of the person who just texted you to say they’ll be late.
How is referring to her as “the black foreigner” considered neutral?
Who is marketing the burpee? Is there some rich ex-drill sergeant out there who gets a nickel for every time somebody does one? (Obviously “drop and give me fifty” takes on a whole new context)
If you think that’s crazy just try figuring out the ages of everyone in the Bat-family and putting a rational timeline to it.
Who told you she can’t fly? She can fly.
I have no qualms with my friends saying “let’s just get some cheap ass macro for the river. It’s too hot for IPAs” and doing this as a group just like it’s fine to be like “let’s just run the drive through on the way to the river so we don’t have to worry about packing lunches”. But! I’m not about to show up at the…
Isn’t there like a whole episode of Seinfeld about Jerry’s formerly 30” jeans?
I don’t think this was limited to Cuphead, I had major issues trying to preorder Battlefront 2 for Xbox Friday night on Microsoft.com
Think I’d prefer the subtitles over this New accent. Klingonese was a bold and challenging tongue and now it sounds depressed and whiny all the time. At first I thought it was because of the new (also a terrible choice) facial makeup/prosthetics, but when they speak in English they have no issues and sound far more…
