  • Knowing the answer to some of history’s biggest mysteries, because you were there, but being unable to speak about them because, 1, that would expose you, 2, nobody would believe you either way because nobody expects you to be THAT old.

    IDK, I feel like researching for supporting evidence of a theory you already know is correct would be much easier than researching to try to piece together a theory from no information. I think you could put the truth out there as credible and well-regarded theories, even if there are incorrect alternative theories that people also have to consider.


  • I definitely heard the phrase before the show came out.

    No you absolutely did not, unless you were talking to dorks who started using out-of-context nonsensical phrases from their favorite fantasy book. If you think you heard the term not as a reference to ASOIAF you are misremembering. Its origins do not go back to the 1800s. The term in this context refers to a child who has lived their entire life in the years-long summers of the world of ASOIAF. That is what it means.

    Gotham also has a literal curse that makes it perpetually dysfunctional. Its cop out comic book bullshit, but Gotham literally cannot be fixed.

    I have a serious question, who in universe knows about this? Because if Batman knows the city is irreparably cursed (why is it irreparable btw? There might not be quite as many high fantasy wizards running around as in marvel but there are still some, surely somebody could fix it) and doesn’t use his billions to relocate the population somewhere else, then he’s still the bad guy. If someone else knows about it and doesn’t tell Batman then they’re the bad guy.



  • Generally games with random elements are considered to be good for dumping tons of hours into. So games with randomly generated worlds like Minecraft, roguelikes, strategy games that are always variant just because of the nature of AI actions always being a little randomized, and other stuff like that. So maybe like Minecraft, Dwarf Fortress, Crusader Kings 2 or 3 as like a basic list. But really the game that’s going to be the most replayable is the one you don’t get tired of. I’ve beaten Thief: The Dark Project hundreds of times and that game is a relatively simple level-based stealth game with no random elements and not even especially huge levels.
