I and my team will be making sure our four guests of honor are fed, happy, and in the right places at the right times. I also need to finish up the amigurumi gifts I am making. Because yarn. Yay yarn! Most of your things listed were from the 80s. But the lack of Princess Bride kinda makes my heart sad. That one's the best of the bunch. Yeah, but they seemed to be things 90's kids should have watched? Impression I got from them, coupled by the fact that I can't think of a decent 90's cultural milestone (I DID see some of the Disney Renaissance films though. I remember sitting in a theatre and watching the first few minutes of Hunchback... but honestly, that is the ONLY part of the film I remember. I also saw Batman and Robin in cinema, but, um... I try not to think about that.) If it makes you feel better, I did catch some of Princess Bride in my first year at Uni?

I dunno, my childhood was firmly centered in the 80s, and these are all things I think of as my generation's touchstones. But I get your point, the 90s were just kind of...there. (You poor thing. I still quietly seethe at what they did with Batgirl.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name a thing that 90's kids were supposed to have watched, and I can pretty much guarantee I missed it I also didn't see X-Men 1 or 2 until they got DVD releases for some reason, and that was at the height of my status as an X-fan. (Heck, think I was... what, 16 by the time I saw the Terminator films? And those have become one of my favorite movies ever, so) Actually, remember at Uni, one of my friends was so horrified that I hadn't seen those pop cultural milestones that they asked if I had been raised in a convent. BUT MY ANIME KNOWLEDGE (in our small social group) WAS SECOND TO NONE, SO I CLAIM A MORAL VICTORY. Yeah, I haven't seen some of those *cue shocked looks* 9 minutes ago, Mistrunner said: The Tiffany Aching books are some of my favorites! I'll say the same for them- they really got me to start looking at the world around me. Not to mention the fact that they're hilarious. They were some of my favourites for years. Still are a bit, in fact. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is a shame; what I've read of them shows Cassie and Stephanie as two very fun, very cool and interesting characters, and I wish they stuck around. Hurrah for Rebirth, I guess; I really ought to read more Detective Comics for those two...

Honestly, I don't disagree about the other canon Batgirls. I thought she played a much more important and interesting role in the DCU as Oracle. She knew everything, man, and kept things running smoothly for everyone behind the scenes. She had so much more room for character growth and change before they rebooted the universe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had her own specific niche that no one else was really filling, and it IS a shame to see that gone. Plus... I don't know. Cass had her own solo book for a good seventy-something issues. Steph!Bats was just downright fun, in a way that... she makes me laugh. Her comic -again, the little I've seen- was really well-written, and I so wish they had continued with that.. instead of not only booting Steph out of the role, but pretending she didn't even exist. (Honestly, that whole era of the Batfamily immediately before the New 52 is amazing and fascinating for eveyrone and I could talk at length about it) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkness Ascendant Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 I am very frustrated right now. Today we had the athletics carnival, I... came 3rd in everything >> Really frustrating, because I don't usually try at these things and I've gotten as far as regional (school,zone, regional, state, national) And of course...when I start taking it seriously god does everything in his power to keep me from moving up...(TOP TWO GO TO ZONE >> >> >> MISSED IT BY ONE >>) Urhrhhghg, I only do Track events, not Field events (because those require me being bothered XD). I tried 100 m hurdles for the first time, had no idea what i was doing, but went pretty well since I came...third 100m sprint I started off on the wrong foot literally, usually I'd be neck and neck with the two people in front of me, but because of that I was a few fingers behind hmph. 200m the people in the year (school year) above us who were in our age-group (16s) decided to jump in as well, I did the race well...but ended up third 400m glided through the entire thing, third 800m glided through, third 1500m died and came third. And after I did the 800m I fell sick... So since then I've had a runny nose, been sneezing and coughing violently and generally been feeling congested...nose has been drained so dry it burns when I breathe bleh Not in bad day because it wasn't a bad day tbh, yeah I could have done better but I don't get bogged down in failures like that...because I have bigger problems XD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erunion Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 I'm sorry everyone: Canadian politics is objectively better than your countries politics. This is a fact. Evidence: This video you need to watch now. Context: Rona Ambrose (the lady asking questions at the start) is the leader of the official opposition. Justin Trudeau is our current prime minister. The guy in robes is basically the official moderator of all parliamentary discussions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side, you won't have to wait for episodes to be released! Always look for the positives! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
