done catching up through season 2 of the boys

im sorry, but starlight still being alive has to be one of the biggest plot holes/inconsistencies ever

yes im aware stormfront gives an explanation for it in one episode, it’s still incredibly stupid

The entire show is full of massive plots. Don't pick at one thread because it'll fall apart quickly.

[Mertron]

im enjoying the show otherwise i would have stopped watching it

but yeah, pretty silly

[Mertron]

anyway giancarlo esposito is a national treasure for someone who also seems to play the exact same character very often

[Andalusian girls]

disliking a character's reasoning does not a plot hole make

[Mertron]

it isn’t just that one characters reasoning, before she gets the tracker pulled out homelander should have killed her any second

instead the show is just a never-ending trail of “well what if i blackmail you with THIS!”

[Mertron]

again, i am enjoying the show

[Andalusian girls]

these people being obsessed with their status and allowing such to dictate their behavior because they value public perception over any other form of self-interest is one of the grounding themes of the show

i agree it gets redundant, but it's a feature not a bug

Tony going to therapy is a plot hole says man watching Sopranos for the first time

For someone who considers themselves a comic book nerd this is unforgivable.

[Andalusian girls]

but also it's so, so much better than the comics and takes massive liberties

[Zealot]

I will probably check it out eventually.

Obi-Wan spoiler:

Spoiler: show

The argument that Leia pretended to not know Obi-Wan in ANH falls apart when you realize she didn't react at all when Vader cuts him into pieces right in front of her.

[Anoat]

She did just see her entire planet blown up, she was going through some shit internally

[Demosthenes]

The thought of murdering someone for putting too much Mayonnaise on my food has crossed my mind, but I'd never do it.

Been playing Aion Classic for about a year. It's not golden era FFXI -- there are too many things that are not world spawns that matter, and gear progression is vertical instead of lateral -- but it at least has some world spawns that drop BIS items.

Finally got my white whale item of this game -- took camping 8-10 hours a day (16-26hr window, no 30m/1hr mini windows like XI) for eight months. Only missed three days cuz of work trips, and got outclaimed five or six times. I won't even use the dagger since it's a PVP item and PVP is almost as stupid and as uninteresting as instances. It's a symbol of my dedication to world spawns that I was more willing to camp a PVP dagger to not use it than "hardcore PVPers."

And yeah, just like with my Hecatomb Subligar in XI, this meant more to me than a lot of work/academic accomplishments. It was the first time in a long time I've been actually happy and I also realized that it's been a while now since I've thought about suicide. I never considered myself high risk before, and I still don't, but thinking back on it I realize how much my thoughts dwelled on it and how unhealthy it was.

Riot (Microtransactions) and Blizzard (bringing gaming to casuals, especially in MMOs, and instances) really fucked over gaming, and I will forever hate Mizuki Ito for caving into that latter trend for XI.
