Fuck with the warp core ejectors, then when they inevitably need to eject the warp core… BOOM

Do I finish the series in one sitting, or should I take a break? by SparkyDogPants in wheeloftime

[–]trillborg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you stop now, keeping track of which characters are where and what they are doing is going to be even harder than it normally is. Stick with it. Like the previous commenter said, switch to audiobooks if you’re having trouble otherwise.

Muddy waters is my wife’s go-to anniversary spot. Definitely recommend it.

I’m trying to learn as much info at once as I can, entertainment is nothing to me by Nubrock1 in adhdmeme

[–]trillborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lately my wife has been putting on movies then playing podcasts afterward which analyze the movie. This inadvertently helps me, since the podcast tells me what I missed during the movie, and I can focus on other things during the podcast. Win-win!

You have to fuck the last video game character you killed What is it? by JUST_THE_TEXAN in AskReddit

Yeah man, it’s not gonna be easy but I figure the soul gem has to fit in some kind of socket.

Hey at least you don’t have to fuck a dwarven sphere like I do

Audiobook question by LordRand1944 in wheeloftime

[–]trillborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah WoT was my first choice when I got an audible subscription because the value is ridiculous when you get one free book a month, and WoT is one of the few series where a single book could actually last a whole month

Ummm excuse me while I rush palace with p90 and kill a bunch of silvers.

Got my fiancée to start WoT and now whenever a new character gets introduced, she stops and says, "Hmm, I don't know, seems like a potential DARKFRIEND!!!" by odd_ddog in WoT

[–]trillborg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing, because the books are great and because you’re posting here, that you’re a big fan of the wheel of time. Seems to me that she’s probably reading it because it’s something you’re really into, and she is willing to make the effort and step out of her comfort zone because she wants to share it with you. I think that’s really sweet, and speaks well of her and you.

What is your favorite quote ? by dragonofwestreborn in WoT

[–]trillborg 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That line always reminds me of a great line from Game of Thrones about Stannis Baratheon: “‘I am not without mercy,’ said he who was notoriously without mercy.”

Is Pittsburgh a Rude City? by helfire1029 in pittsburgh

[–]trillborg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I think this might come down to regional comparison. I think Pittsburgh is nicer than a coastal city like Philadelphia, LA, or NYC, and about on par with other rust belt cities. However, if you’re from the Midwest, people here could come off as rude. I haven’t spent much time in the South, but based on reputation, they’re probably nicer there, as well.

So I guess it just comes down to what you’re used to.

This series has exploded in scale by 0lympu5 in WoT

[–]trillborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they must mean chapter, as the Last Battle chapter is longer than the first Harry Potter book, but not by much. There are long prologues, but not nearly as long as that chapter.

What's an SFW Google search that unexpectedly turned NSFW? by smol_boi-_- in AskReddit

[–]trillborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly a google search, but I think most people my age remember the first time they went to whitehouse.com in the early days of the internet…

Just started FTL. Does having a crew member in a room give it bonuses? by dreamonto in ftlgame

[–]trillborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to other posters about weapons/engine/shields (all of which get bonuses), you need a pilot (which should be obvious) and if you put a guy in sensors or doors, that system is temporarily upgraded by one. For example, if you get boarded, put a guy in the doors room so you can lock the boarders in a room without air.

What do you wish was illegal? by Xanduh in AskReddit

[–]trillborg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pharmaceutical ads. If I need a medicine, my doctor will tell me. The only reason I can see for them is to get people to bully their doctors into writing a prescription. It’s probably a big reason why OxyContin got so popular, which of course created the opioid addiction epidemic and led to the massive heroin problem we are having in the US. They’re undeniably evil and I am sick of seeing them.

LPT: Parents, please never contact your kid's bosses. Never. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

Also, as a lawyer, please do not contact the judge trying your child’s criminal case. Or the district attorney prosecuting that case. Or your child’s probation officer.

Please?

Is the compendium App supposed to have spoilers ? Just got spoiled this by the App... It feels bad... :C by FoxyNugs in WoT

[–]trillborg 222 points223 points  (0 children)

I would say this isn’t a huge spoiler. It’s not like you get a lot of Lord Brend without knowing who he is. I honestly don’t remember him being mentioned outside of Rand knowing him as Sammael.

Sorry though, still sucks to get a spoiler. This sub usually recommends that you stick to the glossary at the back of physical books to avoid spoilers. As an audiobook listener, I just muddled through without for my first read after receiving a major spoiler somewhat early on when I checked out a character on the wiki.

What are the most budget friendly deck archetypes? by Chikageee in EDH

[–]trillborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a pretty good Kumena deck going right now. I can’t say whether or not it’s viable for competitive play, but it’s working well in my play group.

Circumcision without a medical reason on a male infant who can’t consent is child abuse. by Buffsicle in unpopularopinion

[–]trillborg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah man, there’s a great podcast called “Behind the Bastards” which did an episode on the guy. It’s completely mind-blowing, and it’s not even all the messed-up stuff he’s responsible for. I’d recommend a listen.

A question about the last three books by 3rd_eyestronaut in WoT

[–]trillborg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I came to this series after the disappointment of the end of the GoT HBO series and the fruitless years of waiting for the Winds of Winter. I wanted a series that was finished, and that ended well. I didn’t know that another author had finished WoT until the forward where Sanderson explains, and honestly, I don’t see how he could have done better. Not only did Sanderson do an excellent job (and got me reading his fantastic work, as well) but Jordan did a great job preparing for someone else to finish his work. I understand that he wrote many of the pivotal scenes himself before his passing, and the plot has the feel of being well-outlined. Nothing felt out of place for me, and there was only a minor shift in tone when Sanderson took the reins.

The ending is so good that, upon finishing the series, I was starting it again a couple of months later. I’m now on my third way through the books, no more than two years after starting in the first place.

Am I the only one, who wish the pet would bring stuff? by KiddyValentine in StardewValley

[–]trillborg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would be happy if the pets would jump up on the furniture we have (besides the bed). It would be great to come home at night and see my cat napping in a chair.
