  • Exactly. Sexual innuendo.

    Or who here or in the audiences actually thought the protagonist was going murdered in the middle of a movie like that?

    No-one.

    Thinly veiled sexual innuendo. Not perhaps from the characters own perspective, but we’re not her, we’re looking at the movies as structure. Did you by the way know the rule “any announced plans never happen”. And even the audience doesn’t know they know it, they do. Like whenever a hero goes over their plan or something. Any actual promises or plans that are announced and “will happen” never do. So “I will kill yourself if you don’t stop your horny (average looking) ass from from horning after me” actually becomes more like “I won’t kill you, despite you continuing exactly like before”

    And even then GoG movies still have a better female character, Nebula.


  • It’s the extremist teenage power fantasy: become a complete recluse and kill everyone who looks at you funny.

    Lol. Sure, but if that’s the amount of contempt we’re putting to our analysis, Gamora is the ultimate kawai waifu that the hero is destined to be with, even getting his godlike Daddies (think like an Arnie as inlaw oh wait no who has that can’t be the same person leading this movie) acceptance for his boyfriend, who is overall very average, very mid all around, but still saves the universe.

    They’re all complete fantasies and based on a lot of silly wishful stuff.

    “Threatens to kill Starlord for putting the moves on him” lol, as if that was even remotely an actual threat instead of thinly veiled sexual innuendo. No way, the mid tier guy has to like, make the attractive lady want them through being a bad person, despite being very mid and not having the attention of the attractive kawai waifus, overcoming it through the power of personality. But also, he’s literally a god. Well, “A celestial”. Which never gets shown, except the once, which doesn’t reflect to his abilities or strengths in any way.

    Yes, the ultimate standin for the average comic fan, I guess?

    But Cpt Marvel actually develops as a character. Perhaps from bad to not-so-good, but they develop. And perhaps you don’t enjoy aspects of the movie which I might, I dk. We prolly like different things, and honestly, can’t remember that much of Cpt Marvel as a plot, so it couldn’t have been that good, but I do remember enjoying the character of Cpt Marvel more than Gamora at any point. Gamora might have been interesting in some comics or smth but at least in the movie she didn’t have development, just a romantics interest of the lead who then gets killed by Arn… Big Daddy.



  • IMO Gamorra is a much more interesting character than Captain Marvel.

    Eh. Gamora is the love interest of a protagonist of the movie. (Arguably the main one in GoG, obviously but still.)

    Captain Marvel is the protagonist of her movie.

    Idk, I’ve seen GoG movies twice at least but I haven’t rewatched Captain Marvel… maybe it’s a good time. Thanks.

    But yeah for the female characters from GoG i just find Nebula a far more interesting character. We actually see her develop and see her past and she’s not just a romantic interest (even when there’s hint of a bit of that perhaps), unlike Gamora. Gamora didn’t really have an arc imo, just disliking his “daddy” and then dying. And then coming back and being a bitch more or less. Dk, seems uninteresting to me.


  • So then I got put in catholic school, and without knowing what sex was, began to ask the church if Mary had baby Jesus, through God, so God is the father, why wasn’t Peter pissed that his wife was having a baby with another man?

    They evidently went kinda easy on the religious teachings?

    I’m not a religious man and despite monotheism as a phenomenon and think it’s bad for mankind, but even I know Mary was married to Joseph. Peter was one of Jesus’s apostles and the first pope.


  • I do wash mine quite often. Try to every time I wash the bedclothes.

    I too got a new generic pillow for cheap. Ite just almost too thick for a support pillow and my main is memoryfoam, which I liked. So I just kept using my old secondary pillow instead of the new plump one. Going to have to “drive it in” I see.





  • It can feel a bit dramatic when they’re there literally a deer in your headlights, and you’re on a dark, icy road in the backwoods, doing 80kph.

    And the motherfucker won’t move.

    The only thing to do is to try to dodge them from whichever way they’re coming from.

    And sometimes, it’s not a 60kg deer, but a 500kg moose. And them mofos are almost as stupid, twice as stubborn and also have an aggressive mode. (Albeit it’s kinda rare.)


  • No no, they have two responses, flight and freeze.

    If they only had flight they’d be somewhat more predictable. As it is, you can’t trust them to even move when needed.

    And I agree that venison is fucking delicious. Love me some venison mince ragu, get rosemary in the meat. Mmm.





  • So why don’t we treat excessive, unnecessary and wasteful wealth and power as an addiction that severely affects society

    Because the money addicts also happen to have all the power.

    D’you know what the first thing a drunk says when you call him a drunk? “I’m not a drunk”, while getting visibly upset and often violent.

    The money addicts have all the money and all the power. And they all support each other in their delusions. And it’s not just some random delusion, it’s a global paradigm. So it’s kinda hard to point out their delusions when theyre shared by billions of wannabe rich people.

    Even when we’re literally destroying the only planet known to support life.




  • answer your silly question, it’s impossible to say -

    No shit, Sherlock.

    Which is why your complaint that bringing up all the hundreds of fucking privacy laws which explicitly define privacy is “childish and facile” is goddamn hilarious.

    You’re just a sore kid crying because he was wrong.

    You’re an illiterate moron.

    Try to recap your point. Wait, you have none, because you too have admitted that metas glasses aren’t in any way a new problem.

    That’s like being so shittingly brainless that you’d argue that the drug trade was invented with tor-networks.

    You have no point you have no argument you’re just moving the goalposts because your tiny little ego can’t take having been wrong. I sincerely do hope you’re a kid, because having a psyche like that as an adult would be pitiful.
