I got one of these for a birthday present this year:

The post and comments are in finnish, but the gist of it is that they are testing delivery-bots in Finland. The problem is, these traffic lights only go green for pedestrians if you press a button… I, for one, welcome our new robotic overlords!

If luck = 1d20 and help = reroll then luck + help = 2d20 keep highest. Yes no?

My gnomes used to rule the world and pretty much uplifted and enslaved the other species. Then they broke the world and magic in their hubris, and most of them devolved into goblins. The remaining gnomes are feared and shunned for their ancestors’ actions.

I use Jotnar as a name of a ”small giant” race in my homebrew. It’s basically the plural of Jotun. If you want to go even more authentic nordic with the words, you could spell it Jötun/Jötnar

Episode 1, when Qui-Gon meets Jar Jar, the droid transport hits his head into the rythm of Imperial March! Hilarious! I broke down laughing.

This is propably one of the greatest truths about world building that writers should learn.

That is a pretty decent short version of it, yeah. I didn’t provide links as mine were to those 15000 word essays, but that one gave a good overview.

You have 10 River Avons also. Welsh version of the same issue if I remember correctly. 😂 I’m also amazed by the british Torpenhow Hill. Which is literally Hill Hill Hill Hill. I seriously urge everyone to look into that etymology.

In Finland we have a town called Porvoo, which comes from swedish Borgå, which literally means ”the river fort”. We also have Järvenpää, which translates as ”the end of the lake”. And a lots of places with ”river” in it. I approve of this theory.

The Wampa scene is pretty fun too. I love how they’ve managed to turn the most brutal scenes in the movies into something cute and fun. Even more so than in the earlier games.

Did you see the Han vs Greedo cut scene? Very similarly humorous take.

This was my childhood show of choice: My mom bought them on vhs whenever they dubbed a new one in finnish.

I got digital so it preloaded last week. I’ve usually held to a 1-hour max game time for the kid, but today he got an exception and we played for 2. Started at ep.4, and we just made it to Deathstar before quitting.

Han vs Greedo in the game is absolutely awesome. My 5yo. son found it the most hilarious thing ever 😂

Et tu. Literally ”and you”. The whole phrase as said by Caesar is propably embellishment by Shakespear.

Exobiology. Top right. ;) ”Good” is such a subjective term…

There’s a thread for it Moon Knight - SPOILERS Although, I admit it’s more comfortable to talk in our smaller little circle.

Oh it started already? Yeah, I’ll be checking it out.
