The Berenstain Bears is a series of children's books focused around a family of four brown bears - it's also the source of a Mandela Effect where everyone remembers them as the Berenstein Bears. Honestly, a desert scheme sounds really cool and actually kind of difficult to get right, it's just a pain in the arse when someone just has to make fun of someone else's work.
In this case the Mandela effect turned out to be (somewhat) true. There was small sub-contracted that misspelled "Berenstain" in their version, but only on the cover.
My grandparents had the misspelled ones. It was a 2 or 3 year run at the end of the 80s that had it. Cassette tapes. Books. Anything that company touched
The story with the autistic guy made me think of that British dating show that was autistic people or something and when at the end the girl rejects the guy he just waddles away looks at a dog and immediately goes "Is that a King Charles Cavalier? Ah, of course it is. I can tell."
So cool to hear my story read out and I apologise for the lack of full stops in it north it's something I struggle with as I'm dyslexic but I appreciate the feedback man. Thanks again for taking the time to read it out
One thing you can try is reading what you wrote out loud. Every time you stop talking, put a period or a comma there. We kind of naturally add punctuation in our speech through brief pauses (comma) and stops (periods), so saying it out loud can be a big help in knowing where to put them. I know I can be really bad with that as well. I often tend to ramble when typing and only realize it after going back and reading it again. Maybe it could help ya. 😄
Not saying the last story didn't happen but why do those types of story all follow the same steps? > For background we have [open left-leaning trapping] > Introduce That Guy > That Guy is described as a caricature > That Guy is "overheard" saying something egregious > That Guy is exposed as a bigot, a creep, or a hypocrite > Fade to black
Idk if the titan story happened in the states or not, but if it did, the guy was actually in his rights to punch the other guy. A Warlord titan is $2000+, meaning destruction of that property is a felony. United States castle law allows for physical force to pacify someone who has assaulted or vandalized your property, especially if it was a felony level offense.
The stories may be mental North, and that's exactly why you named it hobby nightmares lol don't take things with a pinch of salt. That makes people feel like their story doesn't matter. You made this space for us to connect and laugh at the outrageous behavior of the oddballs in our hobby lol keep up the excellent work bro! I'm going to write to you soon as well! Cheers brother 🍻
I 'm currently painting my 1st combat patrol box, so soon I can enter the gaming field with my smol army, then can continue with 3 more boxes and tanks to paint to get to 2k points
There should be a QR code linking to Your channel on every GW box, mate! I just listened to about 10 or so of Your podcasts and Man, You're wise. For real. Also, I always chuckle at Your rendition of "Junamean?" :)
I've heard "turd" marines used before, but it was literally a guy that did Plague Marines to look like dooky. He was a fan of the Kevin Smith film Dogma, and even made his Great Unclean One look like the Golgotha Shit demon.
I've just realised my mistake. I was building army's and there was always models and units I wished I had time to build. I should have just bought, built and painted them.
Not a fan of the global banning axross stores. I got into a really shitty situation at a store which caused me to get banned from there. I got to reinvent myself at a new store where I i am on good terms with the owner.
Hey North, do you mind if people ask why you painted your words bearers gray? I play heresy, and I like to hear why people painted their armies certain ways, and I like to hear their armies lore.
I don't want to frame the whole game (or opponent) as a hobby nightmare, but it was def a wtf moment. My very first game of 40k, my very 1st turn of being shot at was an infantry blob w/ command squad by a heldrake. Dude flew up, and even though I should have been outside of his firing arc, torrent rules at the time (6th/7th ed) let him place the flame template anywhere 12 inches away from the model, so I got shot. Whatever I think, I got dudes to expend. Prob was onenof this hits landed on my warlord/commander. Failed my lookout sir, invul, FnP, and instant death at the time for being half the T of the attack reduced him to 0 W. Meanwhile, he had abaddon buried in a cultist blob with cultists tanking lookout sirs on a 2+/4++ It basically took 3-4 turns of baneblade focusing to kill 20-30 cultists+ Abby. The dude was def a bit of a "that guy" in terms of play, but he wasn't a dick. He showed me rules in questions, let me mulligan mistakes, etc. He taught me some important lessons about the way people can cheese certain rules in a more competitive scene.
Of course there are drama stories around LGBTQ stuff is because there are always people who want to make drama from it (on both sides) - instead of just letting painted models be such
So don't help people get better. Just make fun of people behind their back like normal people. Funny how cliches are bad at GW but good for gaming stores. Make a list of people you don't like and don't let them play anywhere. Sounds fun.
The totally unnecessary crapping on people's spelling and grammar in every video... Maybe just give things a proof read. It doesn't come across particularly well. I enjoy the videos but this puts me off every time.
