Sorry for spending so long in the character creator it will happen again

"no you can't control the computer because uh that would be user unfriendly" <- shit they expect us to believe

"The user doesn't know what they are doing, but luckily we are smart and can make all the decisions for them" <- voice of an operating system that kills its own firewall for no reason and doesn't tell anyone for months until you ask it where the firewall is

babe are you okay you reblogged got that fog in me 11 times

wait, i did? i don't remember doing that...

my controversial opinion is I don’t think Zuko was confused by “my first girlfriend turned into the moon”

he was there during siege of the North. he infiltrated the spirit oasis. he has an uncle who studies spirits and the spirit world. he watched the sky go dark then the moon suddenly reappear like everyone else in the entire world did. and most importantly he watched zhao get eaten by a giant godzilla fish spirit.

his entire life since he saw that beam of blue-white light in the south pole has been ‘this day has already been so goddamn weird’

The only really new information was that that was Sokka’s girlfriend

Also, Iroh was there? He literally watched Sokka make out with the moon spirit. And you want to tell me that a romantic sap like him would not have immediately told Zuko about this romantic tragedy? Please, Zuko has known about this for ages, he just knows that this is not an acceptable situation in which to say “yeah, I know.”

When you put it like that, this is actually a legendary display of tact on Zuko’s part

For years, sci-fi has asked, what if aliens were wetter than us. Project Hail Mary posits a new, daring question. What if we are the wet aliens

i'm still mad they killed E3. if they're gonna release a string of commercials the least they could do to get me to watch is to perform a self-humiliation ritual of their c-suite executives on stage try to seem cool. They don't even wear gamer T-shirt and blazer anymore.

taking time on your national holiday to shit on your own country is pathetic and childish. no one cares. it's not a flex. i don't even care which country it is. celebrate the place you came from!

No, wait, seriously. Wasn't there some real conflict where America was running ice cream to the men on the front lines, and it fucked with the morale of the other side, or even intimidated them by having a supply chain so robust it supplied luxuries?

I remember reading accounts from German soldiers from WWII, on, "When did you know that Germany was going to lose?" One soldier recounted how he found a dead American soldier after D-Day, and went through his things, and saw that this enlisted man had coffee, chocolate, and cigarettes on him; in the German army, those were luxuries, only afforded to the officers. But if just your average American soldier had that...

Which reminds me of another German soldier's story: During D-Day, he was sent to spy on the American landing force, to see how many horses and veterinarians they had, to determine their logistical capabilities. Only to discover that the Americans had no horses or veterinarians; their entire army was mechanized. And that's when this particular soldier realized that Germany didn't have a chance.

There's a story of a German guard for a POW camp who knew that the war was lost whenever a POW's family sent him a whole cake with frosting to him.

I heard an apocryphal story of a Japanese general who realized they were screwed screwed when he learned the americans had a ship just to make ice cream.

The thread is back! Those were the stories I wanted. The ones where chocolate and ice cream freaked out the enemy. The other additions are nice too.

Happy 4th of July, everybody!

Not gonna gaf about mainstream monster romances until it's a gorgeous man desperately in love with a grotesque female monster. Sorry I don't care if Guillermo Del Toro made another woman x monster man movie. I won't think he actually cares about "finding the beauty in the monstruous" until a woman is the monster and the man is the pretty waif
