    Lmao, I’m the neckbeard! I’m not being a gatekeeping snob over what type of fiction people like. You came in here being condescending , I’m just calling you out for what you are.

    Someone who desperately wants me to care about what you care about in fiction, calling what other people like slop, and being mad people are having fun. Like how is that not neckbeard snobbery?

    I mean I’m not trying, to convince you of anything, nothing i or anyone says is gonna change your mind, at this point I just find your opinion boring and a bit sad!

    I made this for you:

    Dude I’m not trying to convince you, I’m not arguing with you, I’m pointing out you seem boring. I don’t care if a description of a monster in a world makes sense in compendium the poster got this description from.

    I actually can’t imagine being so obtuse that you’re looking at the description of a monster for internal consistency to be a snob about it.

    Yum-yucking sci-fi, gatekeeping snob. It sounds boring to be you. But at least other sci-fi snobs can jump on you like drowning rats.

    You prefer your fantasy that happens in other worlds to be more grounded? It’s amazing how boring this world view is.

    I will allow authors to take me on a ride and I will fill in gaps where needed. Frankly I have no reason to believe a Sarlacc in this world does any of that, how did the people in the star wars universe figure that out? Maybe it reads more like a boogeyman legend about a creature the Hutt’s use to execute people. I might add that our only in world evidence is boba fett getting out of one, not super scary. I’m just adding a bit of my own spice to the world because it’s been left open to me to do so. That’s fun!

    Imagination and thinking are the same thing, you have to think to imagine What an unusually dull world you inhabit!

    It’s easier than that, it’s not feeding on the creatures protein and fat it’s predating on the creatures soul, or pain.

    A creature of this size wouldn’t get there or stay there on victims stumbling into it. Especially in the deep desert, it’s victims are likely few and far between. When it gets a conscious species, it tortures it for 1,000 years until the things’ spirit and consciousness merge with the hive mind. They are clearly putting energy into maintaining the life of the victim.

    I do a different kind of imagination work in my head for mysteries like this. The way you think seems very mundane and boring.




  • Fuck, i love this so much as an idea, or what if the Sith Lord’s consciousness became dominant rather than merged. The only problem is that Boba Fett cut himself out of one with some armor shards and hatred. An ancient sith lord could probably wear one as a hat.

    Extra idea, Sith Lord’s consciousness has been waiting for a perfect force sensitive victim to fall in, so they can transfer to that body, Naruto style.










  • It’s funny that people always answer like this “I’m already so perfect at wiping i can’t imagine it getting better.”

    In a family of 4 the toilet paper usage in my house dropped by 90%. A purchase of toilet paper now lasted nearly 10x the length, a direct cost savings and reduction in waste into the sewer system.

    Just cause you have this incredible mastery of wiping doesn’t mean the world does. I’m proud of you and how clean you wipe though, congrats. I just wish you could imagine a world where you didn’t get your pants wet ever time you use a bidet.


  • The joke is mystery, like duh, the conversations about how to use it were relevant. No human in the US had anxiety over bidets. When conversations about the sea shells were had, they involved the physical use of them specifically.

    Bidets weren’t in the zeitgeist. When people engage with the sea shells (the literal and exact intention of the sea shells was to wonder how you use them), they thought about how they would physically replace toilet paper. The scene literally shows you the main character generating paper to use.

    Like it’s crazy I even have to note this, when you hear hoofbeats in Wyoming, you don’t wonder if zebra are making them.
