They've got movies on prime if you wanna try that.

I love Spiritfarer, but I can only play it in doses because it utterly destroys me and I have to take 5 months to recover. Same with Stray.
AstronautChicken
Oh I sobbed. A lot.

Yeah, it's a game that I play when I really need that cathartic emotional release. Because it's guaranteed.

#31 in Dutch, the powdered spice and the red/yellow/green fresh vegetable are both called 'paprika'.
PballQhead
What are the small, firey red ones called? Or the moderately spicy, medium green ones? Genuinely curious, they're all the same plant…
nlmaya
Not sure which ones you mean. I meant bell peppers and they come in three colours. These we call paprika. Red fiery ones I'd say are 1/
nlmaya
Spanish peppers or chili peppers, small green fiery ones jalapeños, or green chilis.
PballQhead
I was thinking Thai chilies for the small red ones, we call green ones jalapeños as well. "Green chiles" are different here, milder.

#4 Unfortunately Anakin wanted to be married and be a Jedi Master. His selfishness destroyed the Jedi.

This. The meme didn’t understand Anakin. He wanted power, and he always wanted more of it.

They trained Ahsoka. She left. They also got parents' permission before taking kids. Almost like this is full of crap.

We kidnapped these force kids fair and square and now they are required to stay with us until they die.

I'm no simp. As Lucas wrote them, they have super shitty practices. Why are they super cool kidnapping kids but okay with letting them 1/

Because they don't kidnap children. The only children we ever see taken without parental permission is one without parents and one whose

#5 I LOVE Spiritfarer. A coworker asked what I thought of it and I told her I’d never cried more at a game before. she was like “oh, so so -

I shouldn’t get it?” I’m like NO ABSOLUTELY GET IT it’s a work of art and cathartic. cant recommend it enough.

When I saw the notification I for sure you were gonna comment on my Redwall reference. Because of your username.

#31 Wait what? I kinda thought it came from, like, a small plant or something
AboutTimeIStoppedLurking
Yes, the plant from which bell peppers grow
InkGoat
It does. The paprika plant. It's a specific variety, like jalapeno or poblano or bell. They're all the same species. The meme is incorrect.
seckzie
In Sweden we just have the word paprika for all these things so we never got confused. Two words for same thing is always just confusing. :)
PballQhead
A sweet bell pepper and a Thai bird chili are both "paprika" (same species), but they are hardly the same thing…complexity can be good!
Dagordae
So the Swiss don’t have tastebuds? Do you guys play Russian Roulette with your seasonings? Or do you only ever import one pepper type?
seckzie
haha we are swedes, not swiss that is Switzerland. We usually just categorize them paprikas by color, same for the chilis. :)
HermioneDanger00
Like coriander and cilantro. I don’t know why we do this to ourselves.
seckzie
In Sweden like 150 years ago, ALL spices were just called "pepper." That is why swedish gingerbread is literally called "pepper-cookies." :)
seckzie
But to confuse us further, i have started to realize that "chilis" are apparantly basically just small angry paprikas haha.
PballQhead
There's a couple of other species, C. frutescens and C. chinense, but like 90% of chilies are C. annum varieties.
seckzie
Oh, cool. Bet they are still some sort of relatives though. :)
PballQhead
Oh yeah, they're all genus Capsicum. Just different species, but close enough they can even crossbreed.

#2 mummies aren't usually infectious, and almost always magical/curse related. Zombies vary from semi-magical to biological/viral.
Nuclearun
Mummies are also (usually) at least somewhat intelligent... I mean, they might have been lobotomized, but they aren't mindless corpses.
Dagordae
Intelligent zombies are far from uncommon, as are unintelligent mummies. The big shiny mummy very often has mindless peon mummies to give
Dagordae
The heroes something to beat up on before the dramatic climax.
Dagordae
Semi-magical? The traditional zombie is fully magic. There’s rituals and everything.
DeadeicPrints
Wdym by traditional exactly? The mythos it's based on? The mythos that popularized it?
kaarbaakimgr
The voodoo religion that still creates them to this day
DeadeicPrints
That's purely biological. The effect is caused by drugs, the ritual is a smokescreen.

Zombies were inspired by rabies. There have been many interpretations of them, but disease is a strong through-line.

#7 while I enjoyed HP, Pratchett is funnier, and better constructed. His Discworld series is more relatable to adults. Great world building
Dagordae
Harry Potter is decent enough YA and an OK starting point for newer readers. Easy to pick up, falls apart on serious analysis. Pratchett is
Dagordae
More intimidating for newer readers, even the YA branch. Compare the complexity of Witch magic mix of ritual, psychology, deal making, and
Dagordae
Land magic vs Potter’s ‘say words, get magic’. But it easily stands up to analysis and has multiple layers in any given story with solid and
Dagordae
Creative themes. Plus Potter has decent movies. Discworld… doesn’t. It has a handful of mediocre at best films and a series only notable for
rhixhikaru
Going Postal was pretty good.

How incandescently FURIOUS it makes the fanbase.
