Nope. Forgot entirely, had to make another trip.

Well, did you get water?
@  wonko the sane? : (14 December 2019 - 01:56 PM)

Went to the bathroom, shaved, baked a cake... wait, I only got up to get some water...

That's a common misconception. You see compared to the first run, it's a new mold.
@  PlutoniumBoss : (14 December 2019 - 03:27 AM)

Wouldn't that just add packaging authenticity? :D
@  SHIELD Agent 47 : (14 December 2019 - 01:44 AM)

I read a anecdote of someone recently receiving a Glacialord with mold because apparently online stores' warehouses have been sitting on Fansproject products like that for years.

Unlike many of his peers, Morton diesn't seem to have gone out of his way to try and take every drug going so he's aged remarkably well.
@  Donocropolis : (13 December 2019 - 11:39 AM)

Doesn't seem to have been a market for it, which is too bad, because it perfectly does what it sets out to do.
@  Donocropolis : (13 December 2019 - 11:38 AM)

Just opened it and suddenly I'm 9 years old again.
@  Donocropolis : (13 December 2019 - 11:38 AM)

Bought myself Fansproject Glacialord for my birthday during their Black Friday sale.
@  Nevermore : (12 December 2019 - 07:45 PM)

Morten Harket of A-ha might have aged 35 years on the outside, but his voice is still pretty much the same as it was in 1984. That's some great training and exercise for you.
@  wonko the sane? : (12 December 2019 - 06:59 PM)

Cream cheese has to be on a bagel or crackers.
@  RichardT1977 : (12 December 2019 - 05:31 PM)

(for example: I like Swiss cheese on sandwiches, but find it merely tolerable by itself)
@  RichardT1977 : (12 December 2019 - 05:30 PM)

I mean are you eating it by itself? With crackers? On a sandwich?
@  TheMightyMol... : (12 December 2019 - 04:48 PM)

I would ask, but I'd rather not know.
@  PlutoniumBoss : (12 December 2019 - 03:38 PM)

@  RichardT1977 : (12 December 2019 - 08:48 AM)

They were looking for Skids, but the animators forgot he existed again.
@  Maximus Ambus : (11 December 2019 - 02:58 PM)

He regrouped with Omega Supreme, the Dinobots, Skyfire and the Protectobots.
@  Benbot : (11 December 2019 - 08:20 AM)

Did he get infected with the rest of the Autobots or did he smartly remain off-planet?
@  TheMightyMol... : (11 December 2019 - 05:38 AM)

He really just went to the beach for a couple of days, then called it in. Who's gonna follow up on it?
@  Maximus Ambus : (11 December 2019 - 05:05 AM)

Anyone really believe Cosmos searched far enough for more ingredient for Corrostop?
@  Nevermore : (11 December 2019 - 03:48 AM)

Oh, we are pretty good at "forgetting" about that. Insisting on sending people home on their overtime, THEN suddenly rushing to do the "backlog" stuff when it's really overdue.
@  wonko the sane? : (10 December 2019 - 05:43 PM)

I've yet to find an organization which didn't have a backlog of "stuff" that needs to be done, but isn't important enough to put on the schedule proper.
@  TM2-Megatron : (10 December 2019 - 05:01 PM)

I'm sure most good/bad (depending on your POV) bosses would be able to find something for the worker to do, in most cases, even if it's spending 8 hours pretending to push a broom around
@  Tm_Silverclaw : (10 December 2019 - 04:39 PM)

Still better than American jobs. x.x;
@  NotVeryKnightly : (10 December 2019 - 11:10 AM)

I'm pretty sure you've already mentioned this before. Especially that last one.
@  Nevermore : (10 December 2019 - 11:05 AM)

That can be fun if you're strong-willed enough. "Hey, you want to go home? Overtime reduction, there's nothing to do..." - "Nah, not today. I want to work."
@  Nevermore : (10 December 2019 - 11:04 AM)

This applies to the field of work as well. Meaning, your boss orders you to show up for a full shift, you show up on time and are absolutely willing to work, and then your boss realizes he has no work for you, your boss has to pay you for a full shift even if you don't work at all.
@  Nevermore : (10 December 2019 - 11:03 AM)

Fun fact: German law has a concept named "default in acceptance", which postulates that if there is a "service for payment" contract, the party that should provide the service correctly offers their due service, and the party that should pay fails to accept the service within due time, the second party still has to pay the first party even if there was no service delivered.
@  wonko the sane? : (08 December 2019 - 10:54 PM)

If it's seasonal affective disorder, check with your doc about vitamin D supplements.
@  Maximus Ambus : (08 December 2019 - 12:46 PM)

That's what I was thinking too, It's the christmas rush and if that's not stressful enough the cold weather can also impact mental health.
@  wonko the sane? : (08 December 2019 - 12:41 PM)

Might be a stupid question given the comment, BUT: have you done anything outside the ordinary lately? Might just be a stress reaction.
@  Maximus Ambus : (08 December 2019 - 12:29 PM)

I've experienced sleep paralysis with ghostly images and similar things in the past and can snap out of it through moving my fingers. I've definitely hallucinated before and members of both sides of the family have had similar experience, some suffered forms of mental instability in two cases schizophrenia.
@  wonko the sane? : (08 December 2019 - 10:47 AM)

So... either a hallucination or night terrors. Are you prone to this kind of thing?
@  Maximus Ambus : (07 December 2019 - 11:55 PM)

It kept repeating until I sat up.
@  Maximus Ambus : (07 December 2019 - 11:54 PM)

I've been up since three and when sheepish I was hallucinating something knocking twice against my bedroom door.
@  TheMightyMol... : (07 December 2019 - 06:58 PM)

Then repaint Apeface and Snapdragon as Transmetal Optimus Primal and Megatron. It's crazy enough to work.
@  PlutoniumBoss : (07 December 2019 - 05:32 PM)

Moral imperative.
@  Nevermore : (07 December 2019 - 05:13 PM)

Wishful thinking, rumor or leak?
@  Maximus Ambus : (07 December 2019 - 04:48 PM)

Snapdragon for Earthrise.
@  TM2-Megatron : (04 December 2019 - 10:22 PM)

Still not the weirdest thing a Nic Cage character has done in a film
@  TheMightyMol... : (04 December 2019 - 04:00 PM)

Couldn't be worse than him pissing fire as Ghost Rider.

If they do this right I am 100% onboard. The interview makes me at least cautiously optimistic that they understand the property. Hopefully it'll be at least decently kid friendly too as my kids love Doreen a lot.

-ZacWilliam, very curious who the other characters will be... Classic New Warriors like Justice and Speedball or Squirrel Girl adjacent folks like Chipmunk Hunk and Koi Boi...

Please, no Koi Boi or Chipmunk Hunk if we can get the classic New Warriors. Speedball would be welcome and Firestar would be great but an awesome impossibility would be an animated Slapstick! Woo!

I'd like to see Turbo too. If Squirrel Girl is there, maybe a cameo from the Great Lakes Avengers.

Considering budget for FX, Koi Boy is a LOT more likely than Nova or Firestar, though.

I LOVE Squirrel Girl as a character and a book. But honestly I don't think Chipmunk Hunk and Koi Boi have enough personality to be "intolerable" to anyone. I'm pretty sure CH's entire personality is "nice guy SG had a crush on" and Koi Boi is basically "slightly more serious nice guy who likes to occasionally make fish-based puns." They're kinda very generic.

-ZacWilliam, now Nancy and the Brain Guy have actual personalities, but they are both pretty wonderful.

Seriously, I do not read any super hero comics, like AT ALL. Not my cup of tea. Never heard of the new warriors, to be honest.

But Squirrel Girl is the exception. Because she is unbeatable!

As a NW fan since day one I would really prefer to see something approaching the classic lineup, but the one deal breaker for me is Speedball. If they give me a prominent Speedball and do him justice, they can fill the rest of the cast with whatever stupid losers they want.

Speedball is an absolute must, but Night Thrasher, the leader of team, is not?

So, are you prejudiced against...a helmeted Nightwing on a skateboard?

Would Richard Rider Nova be out of limits due to Guardians of the Galaxy?

They'd probably tech out Thrasher as their Iron Man. Or else they'd put Rage in.

I'm thinking they'd only want to out one goofball in there so it's either Speedball or Slapstick but not both, aaaaw.

No, I would very much prefer that he was present. But he's no Speedball. Or Justice, or Firestar, etc.

He seems like a hard sell without significant reinvention. I fear if they did use him, it would be as a target of mockery.

A lot of the original NW lineup are tied up in other properties, not just Nova.  Firestar is likely covered by the X-Men license, Namorita with the maybe-untangled-maybe-not Namor rights, Nova's usable but the Nova Corps has already been defined differently.
