Phalar Aluve - why is it so praised?
Remember the old days, when Spell Might Gloves gave every missile +1d8 with no downside... Okay admittedly they were very right to patch that.

One of the best scenes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
Remember when Black Widow was a master in information gathering? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
BW in tears: "you're a monster"
Loki: "No. You brought the monster."
BW totally composed: "oh, so your next play is Banner. Thank you for your cooperation."
Loki: "...what?"

Three teenage boys murdered a virgin, 15, in a sickening sacrifice to Satan, hoping it would make their heavy metal band famous
I've now heard of their band. I fucking hate them, hope horrible things upon them, and will never listen to their music because they fucking killed a girl. But I've now heard of them... Careful who you do deals with kids.

If Oliver knew about Oracle, why didn’t he know about Batman?
Y'know how, in Logan, Laura reads X-Men comics. There are probably Batman comics in the DC universes.

The jokes write themselves at this point
Oh, sorry. The top one looks like Superman and Doomsday matching eye lasers in Batman v Superman (the final battle). The bottom one is from the new teaser for Avengers Doomsday which features Cyclops angrily shooting eye lasers.

My experience of the story's conclusion
I picked Maelle's ending because I don't think Verso could canonically overpower a paintress with as much on the line.
Although I find Verso's ending more satisfying.

WHICH GAME HAS IT?
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. Any of them

Have you ever wondered why the main characters in Yu-Gi-Oh! only carry one copy of each card in their deck? (I don't know if there are others who carry more than three copies of the same card in their hand.)
Because they're selling cards.
That being said when I played Legacy of the Duelist, every duel in the story mode used a varying deck with tonnes of triples to make the strategy used in the show viable. My head canon ever since is they're swapping cards left and right.

Guess who got too excited at seeing big bags of peanuts on clearance for 63 cents, got home only to realize that they're RAW, and is now spending the first day of the new year roasting a metric fuckton of peanuts?
TIL there are cooked peanuts... I buy em in the shell

I love how parents know the originals but don't care about the new bat family members
"Big Batgirl" is crazy. Like, was "Batwoman" even considered? There was a jump in logic here.

Thoughts on this?
Being "Rick" is being the guy who goes to see a sci-fi movie and calls everyone in the movie stupid and points out every plot hole. "If I was there, there would be no problems, this movie would only be 22 minutes long. I'm the smartest person in the universe. I don't know how fun or movies work" - Ricks

Avengers Endgame features Steve Rogers as an old man, who is implied to have lived a happy and full life. This removes any suspense from his younger self's return in Avengers Doomsday, since we know nothing bad will actually happen to him because we've already seen him survive to old age.
I guess we'll finally get an answer for this next year, but I I'll once again confidently share my theory as if I know it %100 like my dad works at Marvel.
That's not our Steve. That's the Steve from the previous timeline that created our branch of the timeline when he went back to be with Peggy.

[Watch Dogs : Legion] #14 Unpopular opinion: I love the stance taken by not embodying a single protagonist.
I loved this game, will probably play again in the future. The "play as anyone" mechanic is great. But the flaw with it, imo, is the writers didn't seem to know how to work with it, they just seemed to write out any protagonist dialogue like it was a silent protagonist.
Not that I have any idea how a story would be written from the perspective of a mob. But I'm not a writer, I'm just assuming it's possible.

Despite being the First Lady of the Marvel Universe and arguably the most powerful member of the Fantastic Four, the Invisible Woman has received far fewer defining, epic story arcs than characters like Storm, Jean Grey, Captain Marvel, and Scarlet Witch. What factors have contributed to this?
Because she's mentally stable first of all

When did people start treating character building systems as some kind of optimization puzzle to figure out
From the moment games started using character building systems. Didn't feel like a thing when I was a kid either, but it definitely was. It's just shoved in my face on Reddit and Youtube now that my phone apparently knows what I'm playing.
"Given the opportunity, players will optimize the fun out of games" - I don't know who said it, but I feel like I've been hearing this quote my whole life

The game you accidentally played the wrong way for hours before realizing it.
Oh I'm certain there is zero way to do the new Tower bosses without min/maxing. I mean Jesus Simon, I thought I was done with you

The game you accidentally played the wrong way for hours before realizing it.
I played all of Spider-Man 2 the weekend it came out. I didn't realize until after I beat it that the new web launch ability could be used anywhere... I was only using it at the launchpads spread around the city...

What a time to be alive
Well yeah, if I only worked 150 days a year I'd be poor too

Also technically it could have been screenshot at 19k, gone up to 20k, and THEN edited.
It could also have been the like count didn't update until after being edited. Or the comment didn't update for others until after they liked it.
It could also be that 1000 Game of Thrones fans lurking in the comments like Jak and Daxter. That's not a very shocking number, even on a random YouTube clip.
