Formative Media

[(Anonymous)]

What books, movies, shows, etc. helped make you who you are today? Are you better or worse for it?

Re: Formative Media

[philstar22]

Star Wars. Harry Potter. Anne of Green Gables. Star Trek. Tolkien. I don't honestly know what made me better and what made me worse. Well, I can say that I think Leia and Hermione both made me better in terms of inspiring my passion for justice and helping people. And Anne inspired me to be me and to keep reading and asking questions. But other than that, I don't know.

I thought very hard in order to come up with a fun answer but it came out sad: nothing.

Aside from being able to pwn most average people in Lord of the Rings book trivia, nothing I read or watched as a child has had any influence on who I am today. All those female-centric horse books? Silver Fang? Watership Down? He-man and She-ra? Short Circuit and Ghostbusters? None of them lent anything to my present makeup. I have probably collectively forgotten more about these properties than any influence they might have had.

A few years ago, I bought the M*A*S*H DVD collection and power watched all the episodes in a summer. There were so many things I had forgotten about it, but things that had unconsciously stayed with me. This series, plus Kurt Vonnegut novels, turned me against any idea of war; there were things I often say that I thought were family 'sayings', but came from the script (e.g. a nurse tells Hawkeye that he looks terrible, he answers, "I feel terrible, too. It's a matched set." I have repeated that for years!); there were so many episodes that preached against racism and nationalism, that I realized my 'all white' community wasn't the norm - even when I watched the show as a kid; and, maybe most importantly, I fell in love with the character of Hawkeye and added his positive qualities to my aspirations. So, yeah, I'm much better for having watched it throughout my entire life.

You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

What do you wish for?

(it's the magical equivalent of a thousand bucks)

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

two days of happiness

Re: You get one small wish

[highperformanceturtle]

I'd probably just trade in the wish for the thousand bucks. That'll get me a ticket to see my partner for Christmas, plus some spending money.

Re: You get one small wish

[tabaqui]

The ability to motivate myself to get up off my ass and exercise. Homg. A personal trainer would be about 1000 bucks, huh?

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

As much of a general health improvement as the wish can provide. I'm not dying or suffering from any terrible illness, just the general issues with getting older.

Re: You get one small wish

[philstar22]

A job.

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

For the bites on my legs not being bedbugs.

Beach Gaius in Fire Emblem Heroes.

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

Two months rent please, small genie.

Re: You get one small wish

[nanslice]

Yeah, I'll trade that for the thousand bucks

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

ehhhhh if it's instant and magic, maybe facial hair removal 'cause I'm really, really tired of shaving but it wouldn't be worth spending actual money on laser hair removal and I can't be assed to go back and forth to get it done

Re: You get one small wish

[kaijinscendre]

Pay off a small student loan.

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

For the hair on my head to grow back. Or at least point me toward the reason why it left in the first place, and have a permanent solution 100% in reach and doable for me.

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

An abortion. For my mom. When she was pregnant with me.

Re: You get one small wish

[(Anonymous)]

To be 5 inches taller

Re: You get one small wish

[cakemage]

One more day with my horse, Sharif. Hell, I'd even settle for an hour, or to just be able to give him one last hug and a handful of treats.

Re: You get one small wish

To cure cancer... in my pet chicken. If that’s too much, to heal my other hen who has a hernia so it doesn’t come back. That’s doable, but expensive, and involves finicky hysterectomy surgery before repairing the hernia.
