I’m thinking of the seven-foot-tall anti-tank trooper in Pumpkin Scissors who a baby instantly bonds to.

This is one of my favorite tropes. A big, scary guy/monster turning into a marshmallow over a little kid.

Kurogane from TRC. Big fuck-off tall ninja who's introduced laughing about murder. By the end of the series he's the adopted dad of 4.5 kids.

[(Anonymous)]

I love this trope too!!!

[(Anonymous)]

I love it too, and I love the choice of picture for this secret. It's very Marc Antony and Pussyfoot.

[(Anonymous)]

OBSESSED with this photo. It's so cute, I'm dying.

While there is no doubt that college is overpriced, it is still a benefit. Even those so-called useless degrees have graduates expressing job satisfaction. It isn't just learning the subject, but learning how to learn properly and how to express that learning properly. The only major change that colleges need to make, apart from being cheaper, is to fold in a small business course to each degree so that those wanting to make their subject their own gig, know how to do so effectively.

[(Anonymous)]

While parts of my college experience did feel like a waste at the time and tbh I still feel like course requirements were set so the university could milk more money from me (I did not need business calculus or biochemistry for my English degree thanks), just having a degree opens many doors that would remain closed without it.

[(Anonymous)]

Someone not having the opportunity to go to college doesn't make him wrong to bitch about prices.

[(Anonymous)]

the part of that routine that infuriates me is that it goes on "... and then I DIDN'T". As in, he whines about having paid too much for a degree that he also DID NOT BOTHER TO PUT EVEN MINIMAL EFFORT INTO.
(Also very annoyed that students like that get degrees at all; a GOOD college fails students like that and does not give them a degree, no many how many thousands of dollars they've spent)

[(Anonymous)]

This is a comedy routine, yes?

Because Ross' awfulness is right out there in the open, with Phoebe it takes a little bit to cut through her upbeat quirkiness to see the awful.

Transcript by OP

[fscom]

Transcript: So I live in a fairly large metropolitan area with a healthy regional theatre scene. A lot of my friends are theatre people, and so I get a front row seat (lol) on the struggles when it comes to putting on new and less established works in particular. Part of me is really tempted to make a Facebook group or subreddit or something that would put an equal spotlight on smaller regional theatres and new works - there's always a major disparity in local press between the two or three "big theatres" and the rest of them, and it's particularly bad in the area I live in.

The problem? Like a lot of places, the major theatre-going audience is pretty old and VERY risk-adverse - a couple years ago there was a LOT of public drama when a major regional theatre decided to do "Pacific Overtures" for their annual Sondheim musical over one of his better-known works because people felt like that theatre was "wasting" that year's Sondheim musical slot. I know for a fact that if I started something up I would either a) not get engagement except for the stuff that already gets a bunch of press as it is, b) not get engagement at all, or c) end up being the person stuck moderating a ton of petty drama that I already hate being on the periphery of.

TLDR: I'm a coward and regional theatre drama sucks.

Ha, I just read this on Googlebooks and it's true! I didn't know this either. The fact that the owl almost gets Nutkin scared me as a kid. As an adult, the fact that the squirrels offer the owl blood sacrifices to access his land is pretty messed up.

Spicy comment thread

[(Anonymous)]

Does anyone know any good books for learning how to cook effectively with spices. I'm from a region where spices started and ended with salt and pepper, and maybe a little garlic if you wanted to be "exotic", and I want to learn to cook better. Is there a spices for dummies book?
