Every time I see “rotatoes” I say, and often aloud, that it is genius and I will only be referring to curly fries as such henceforth. Naturally, I immediately forget I have made this vow the second I close the app.
Is #4 going backwards?
Well that was legitimately fucking terrifying for a second there
Do I need to watch the last season or will 5 wrap up enough loose ends that I’ll be okay with it?
So beautiful
I love him too. I love all of them, please keep drawing them.
Hey screw you too buddy slow processing times are real and it’s not like I can just add more RAM.
#17 Revenge procrastination made many a double shift harder and my life generally more miserable back in the day. Now it’s a warning sign: if I notice myself staying up too late and spending the time on low-grade entertainment, I need to step back and figure out what’s wrong.
Dammit it’s nearly 2AM where I’m at and I need to go to SLEEP and this frickin video just flooded my whole system with adrenaline. Thanks bro
Man this looks like so much fun. Maybe without people staring at me though.
This is less metal but “Yankee Doodle” and “Good King Wenceslaus” can also use each others’ tunes.
Yeah I’m trying to figure out how to approach the situation. We work pretty closely together on occasion and up until this conversation it was fine being friendly. :/
This was an adult. I find the kids are more willing to argue in good faith when stuff like this comes up (I try very hard to keep it out of my band room).
I’ve been around individuals, including priests, who very vehemently support teaching consent and respect for one’s partner. Some of them are even fairly conservative. Unfortunately, they make up neither the largest nor the loudest cross-section of (at least American) Catholics. That would be the ones who went off the deep end and are barely distinguishable from super hardline evangelicals nowadays.
At the end of the day, it's clear we have different interpretations of the movie. It's always nice to discuss theme with folks. Have a good week!
not because it's an instance of him using his destructive capabilities. I don't think he hates his abilities. I think he hates being an outcast and treated so monstrously by the folks who should know and love him best, just because of what he is; even before V shows up, he uses his destructive powers in his search for a medal. In the end, too, in what he thinks is his final act, he uses those destructive powers and repeats the Bad Guy mantra to give himself the strength to see it through.
That definitely wasn't the read I had on that scene, though I think it's a valid one. To me, while Ralph is in fact happy while creating, that happiness is born from V's acceptance of him and incredible joy at finally doing something with a friend. However, he's perfectly fine using his destructive powers at other times (eg, building her the track, breaking out of jail). He's sad when breaking her car because he knows how much it means to HER, and how much it will hurt her to see it brokenn, /1
I don't think it was, though! What made Ralph happiest? Wrecking things, like he's programmed to do. What about Felix? Fixing things, like he's programmed to do. Vanellope? Racing in "Sugar Rush," like she's programmed to do. I think the point of the movie is that you are who you are born to be, and people shouldn't be assholes about it, but should support and love you for your own awesome talents and quirks.
I’ll agree that “anon” meeting wasn’t great, but I don’t know that you can argue Ralph was born to be a hero. He was literally programmed to be the bad guy. (I realize I’m pivoting a bit, I like discussing this stuff and don’t get much of a chance.)
All people with good taste.
Does it get better after a while? I tried watching it a few years ago and it felt, I dunno, crunchy and kind of shallow. Should I skip forward to a certain point? I feel like the hype has to be real and I'm just not getting it.
There is no such thing as WIR2. Nope. Doesn’t exist.
I like to think of it as “be who you were born to be, not what society is comfortable with.”
Glad it’s not just me - the first time I saw a picture of her I was CONVINCED someone was just trying to mock him.
Okay so for some reason I can’t tap the picture and then comment on it but re: that mug, there is NO AND I MEAN ZERO reason to waste a perfectly good party, and folks who can’t wrap their head around that probably aren’t welcome at mine anyway.
Gaining that information might result in A) an infinitesimal loss of money in man-hours required to get it, B) grunt-level employees gaining a smidgeon of confidence and power, and/or C) the loss of a customer, real or imagined, so of course it’s out of the question.
Bean is magnificent.
