  • If I go crazy will you still call me Superman?

    Jump

  • And in some of the stories Lex Luthor loses his hair because of his kryptonite experiments.

    In the mainline comics of the ‘80s and ‘90s, wearing a kryptonite ring day after day gave him incurable cancer.

  • Hate it when this happens

    Jump

  • Goggles seem valid, but hair? Should rinse right out.

  • Makes perfect sense

    Jump

  • It’s been a while, but when I played hookie back in the day I found that nobody gave even a tiny bit of a shit.

  • "That was not my fault." - Worf (regarding the Enterprise E)

    Jump

  • I don’t love the idea that every Enterprise has been the flagship. I always assumed that’s just the role the D filled. Until SNW, no one talked about Kirk’s ship being the flagship. I don’t really see why we need to assume the G is either.

    I mean, there were decades between the C was lost and the D was launched. The whole fleet doesn’t need to revolve around an Enterprise.

  • "That was not my fault." - Worf (regarding the Enterprise E)

    Jump

  • The G looks good for a late 23rd century ship. I'll never be able to accept it as a 25th century design. As far as I'm concerned, they slapped the Enterprise name on a 100 year old workhorse.

    • There was a young woman from Venus
    • Whose body was shaped like a penis
    • She made a trip to Phylos
    • And you may think it’s gross
    • But Spock II took her right up his anus

  • time will tell

    Jump

  • Cannot relate, was working from home before, during, and after Covid.

  • MOAR!!!!

    Jump

  • I was scrolling “new” and upvoted this not seeing what it was in response to, feeling pretty confident it was the right call. Now that I’ve checked, turns out I was right.

  • 'Stranger Things' Was a Casualty of the Franchise Machine

    Jump

  • This makes the “content factory” accusation super confusing. What content? Like or hate the result, they’re taking their time developing the show, and aren’t branching off into a dozen spinoffs like I’d expect a “casualty of the franchise machine” to do.

  • sometimes we get lost in the sauce

    Jump

  • Any skepticism here falls downstream of the initial failure to credit that woman’s contribution. Accepting the reduction of a contributor’s identity to “a mother” would be more misogynistic than the responses I’m seeing.

  • Queen of the fast food industry

    Jump

  • Wait until you’ve been to a restaurant that serves things flambé.

  • Op doesn't have time for interviews

    Jump

  • Agreed, it presents as an abstract logic puzzle, but then gives a very concrete answer. It’s like presenting the trolly problem to someone, and when they give one of the two expected answers saying “no, stupid, you run ahead and untie the victims before the trolly reaches them.”

    It’s compounded by the fact that the proposed physical solution isn’t even very reliable, as lots of people in this thread have said. If we’re stepping outside of the logic puzzle constraints, why not just leave the door to the room open? Or have someone stand inside and shout when the light turns on? Or ask someone who knows these switches? Or any number of boring non-brain teaser solutions.

  • Op doesn't have time for interviews

    Jump

  • Go into the room and unscrew the bulb. You can now truthfully say that no switch affects the bulb’s condition, without messing with a bunch of switches whose function you don’t understand. You even know for a fact that the lack of bulb won’t cause a problem down the line, since the room is apparently no longer accessible.

  • Darmok's Christmas Story

    Jump

  • A leg lamp, shattered.

  • Name this episode

    Jump

  • TOS if it had made it to season 5.

  • The audacity

    Jump

  • Yeah, why would you ever give this permission to a grocery list app in the first place? I’m sure I have a bunch of apps that would be doing this to me, but I’ve never given them the chance.

  • The audacity

    Jump

  • Writing out my grocery list makes me remember. Once I’ve written it down I generally don’t need to look at it. If I rely on an app I’ll be looking at that damn app every two minutes.

  • who is the best Dracula? [NEED YOUR INPUT]

    Jump

  • Yeah, I get it - an insane number of people have been Dracula, you need to limit the list somehow. But especially when we're less than a year out from the Egger's Nosferatu, I think people will really want to have that one available. And if that's on the list, it'd be weird not to include the original, since it's so historic and iconic.

    So I think I'd include those two but, despite what I said about the names, maybe you can skip '79 just on the grounds that it's very aesthetically similar to the '22 version? Picturing the list those two side by side might feel redundant, whereas Egger's version has a much more distinct look.

    But it's all debatable. And the end of the day, we've just been spoiled by too many Draculas.

    Jump

  • I'd definitely recommend checking out Renfield. Cage and Hoult are both perfect in it, it's a shame it didn't do better..
