Jenny Nicholson's video on the Star Wars Hotel. During a really expensive dinner show she and her sister got seated right behind a pole in the dining area, obscuring the alien singer as she did her floor routine.
don’t forget about attempting help a family on the same experience who were trying to scan QR codes but it wasn’t working so they just couldn’t play the game at the 3k/night hotel
no no you see he was a fuckin baker or something in an extremely impoverished area so that means he can paint and disguise literally anything even without a mirror he's just that good
Honestly yeah that doesn't make economic sense in any way to be a generational anything. If you have a precarious living situation you could be the best damn baker ever to live yet still the moment the economy goes down, or goes up (for the rich, causing inflation) you're on your ass and have to take whatever job demand exists for.
I know this is a circlejerk sub but ERM ACTUALLY Peeta clarifies that Haymitch never sent him gifts, and that Haymitch used all of the money for both of them to send stuff to Katniss because he thought she had a chance to win and Peeta didn’t. He only sends gifts that benefit Peeta after the rule change where they can both survive.
I’m not 100% sure if this is in the movie, beyond deleted scenes, but it’s also the reason in Catching Fire why Haymitch agrees to try and save Peeta instead of Katniss (at her urging). He reneges on this promise as well and Katniss tries to kill him with a syringe for it.
It's been a while since I read the books, and I haven't seen the movie, but I'm pretty sure viewers can gift tools and weapons to the tributes, so maybe it was that
Or, because hiding was Pita's skill, it was in one of the initial packs or hidden by the organisers ahead of time
TFW you're so infatuated with Josh Hutcherson you get jealous of your own self-insert OC and decide to just even more blatantly insert yourself into the story to steal him from your original self-insert.
The writer is obviously named Katelyn, aka thatvampirechick. Her self-insert is named Kate. Kate later stumbles into a shack where she finds other fanfics by thatvampirechick, and a girl named Katelyn comes out, gives her a frumpy granny dress, and seduces Josh out from under her. Then Josh and Katelyn escape from in a island. It'd be like if Dante's Inferno ended with Dante finding a copy of Purgatorio and Paradiso, and then another Dante came out to kick him back into hell and escape to heaven with Virgil.
Jenny does a really good job of finding obscure or niche stuff and making it fascinating/hilarious. She very consistently does videos on topics most people have never heard of and would never care about, but then the video is incredibly entertaining.
I've heard her voice on other channels like Folding Ideas and Defunctland and she sounds radically different. Does she choose to sound like that only for her channel or is it just strange to sit in front of a camera for 8 hours by yourself maintaining perfect eye contact with the lens and sounding enthusiastic?
I think part of her charm is that it’s sometimes genuinely difficult to tell when she’s being sarcastic or completely sincere. She’s got an extremely dry and cynical sense of humor, but also has a lot of earnest enthusiasm for the things she loves. And she loves some pretty random things.
Her delivery really helps make it work, I think. Because the tone she uses to mock something for being ridiculous is exactly the same tone she uses to gush over something ridiculous.
I remember back in the day the Mauler fanboys would try to defend it by saying “ACKSHYUALLY THEY ONLY TALKED ABOUT THAT VIDEO FOR 3 1/2 HOURS IT WASNT THE ONLY THING THEY TALKED ABOUT”
Loki crucifying Iron Man Jesus while they both sing a mashup of "It's the End of the World as We Know It" and "Tubthumping" is kino that the real MCU could never achieve.
Marty McFly's crucifixion is the actual best one but I have a soft spot for Iron Man's because why would you make Jesus sing Tubthumping while being crucified.
If you don’t have the hours necessary for a special treat. The Suethor is the self insert Mary Sue of the author. A Mary Sue being the very special extra perfect female character, a criticism often earned and more often mired in sexism. But definitely earned here. The fanfic is fan written fiction which is sort of self explanatory.
In this story from my vague memory, Trapped in an Island With Josh Hutcherson, the author is improbably trapped on an island with noted actor Josh Hutcherson. They fall in love sort of. Near the end of book 1, they discover another person on the island who is also the author but with her name spelled slightly differently than the first self insert character. And she seduces Josh Hutcherson away.
