    oh shit

    this girl I know called her kid Archer

    like, after the show

    Will you buy him his first turtleneck?

    due to reasons, no

    lets just say I am not surprised that she is a single mother in her early 20's raising a child she named after a TV show

    Sounds like she's making the most of it.

    I don't think it makes much sense to judge pop stars like gaga or ke$ha as musicians. They barely even claim to be musicians. They need to be judged as entertainers/pop stars. You wouldn't say a band sucks because they are terrible at dancing or have bad stage shows, because that isn't what they're about.

    I judge artists by their stage show. A decent album is nice and all but if you can't reproduce it on stage, chances are it was overproduced and not representative of their ability as musicians.

    gaga is actually a pretty good musician. Which, yeah, is mostly irrelevant.

    I agree with the first part, but the second part depends on what you're expecting. I enjoy poppy, dancy stuff, I don't really need much else.

    That said, the music video for Allejandro was awesome.

    I'm a southern Ostrobothnian Finlandswede.

    Finnish speaking people think I'm an immigrant because they can't parse even the simplest of phrases spoken the way I do and start assuming things because of the way I look.

    Swedes think I'm Finnish or a foreigner because they can't parse even the simplest of phrases spoken the way I do and start assuming things because of the way I look.

    Though it should be mentioned that people of actual foreign country origin commit the same mistake. When vacationing in Turkey and Morocco, the locals thought my father was an oil sheik or something.

    I guess it doesn't help that both he and I bear a striking resemblance to the old King Hussein of Jordan.

    What titans are you talking about?

    The ones in Attack on Titan?

    Basically, they're a thread because nothing short of canon-fire stops them, and even then, it doesn't kill them. The only way to kill them is to slice them deep in the back of the neck.

    Interesting. I never go to live shows so I could not care less. I just want to listen to music I enjoy.

    like was said they regenerate unless you blow through their neck, but I get the complaint, in the show they've got like a few dozen cannons

    Given the extent of the threat you would assume they would build absolutely goddamn enormous cannons at various points on the wall that could be turned

    or like, giant spiked pits or something at least. this is explainable enough by the government not being all that bright I suppose

    go to shows

    it is basically the only way artists make money

    also they are fun

    I was lucky enough to see Devin Townsend on Saturday and it was the most fun I've had in ages!

    Has it even been explained how the walls were built in the comic yet?

    Because until it is, I'm guessing the walls were built by fucking magic and that's why there's only cannons on the top.

    but like

    we have a lot of cannons

    they walk

    so like

    bombard them until a round hits them in the neck

    or just until nothing is left

    Because until it is, I'm guessing the walls were built by fucking magic and that's why there's only cannons on the top.

    Well in the comic spikes along the walls seem to be pretty effective since most of the giants are dumb as a sack of rocks

    Deep pits with spikes and bridges for foot traffic and other passive defenses seem like they'd be way more effective against a dumb foe (once immobilized commence with the stabby)

    But the same can be said about the entirety of zombie fiction so

    Resources are pretty limited, though.

    if they had unlimited cannonballs and unlimited cannons and unlimited gunpowder, that could be a strategy.

    They don't, though.

    That almost never happens in reality.
