  • Shinji loses? Is that what happened in the original fever dream ending? I swear, I watched it, I read about it, and I even rewatched it, and what is actually happening (as in any movie/show/production where the ‘mind’ is able to be tricked by illusions and such, but that’s a rant for somewhere else) never makes any sense even ‘in-universe.’ It just came out of nowhere, it seems. The directors seemed to think, “oh, throw some weird existential horror at the audience and then they’ll just eat up whatever the writers shit out.”


  • His plot armor wasn’t total though. In the first book, or maybe even the second, there’s a moment where his power gets ‘flipped’ so that bad luck constantly gets in his way, and with very careful action it can be overcome. Also the power tried to keep people from knowing because once it was known it would be able to be defeated.

    The xanth books were great. The one with the spider and time travel is just amazing. If you’re a dad, you could fill up your entire repertoire of puns from the series alone.











  • Lol, the commercials for said cereal were always literally about everyone saying it was cookies for breakfast, and who doesn’t have the same breakfast every day? If there was a box of cereal, that’s what we were eating until it was gone and then you open the next box of cereal or switch to toast/waffles/pancakes/biscuits/oatmeal until that box is used up, and so on and so forth until it’s time to go back to the grocery store.

    If your parents bought the cookie cereal (and there were apparently enough to keep it on the shelves for years) then you were eating it everyday as a normal thing.
