If we're talking about Paul, he's the result of over ten millennia of a secret breeding program by the bene gesserit (albeit a generation earlier than planned) AND royalty.
I love Dune more than anything outside of Hitchhiker's Guide, but I don't think Paul really fits here. He's double special before the spice.
Pretty sure bird meetings start a little bit before 5am.
Right outside my bedroom window.
Probably Melon Soda. Not so much the melon cream soda though.
I insisted on calling them this throughout high school because I thought the word hoodie was dumb. Tbh I was probably annoying about it. Eventually I caved, but I still think hoodie is kind of a dumb word. So is jumper for what it's worth.
I've heard of this but never experienced it. I always got verners for an upset tummy... so now it's basically ipecac for me. Can't have any ginger ale now actually.
My friend and I saw Deep Impact in the theater, when the plan fails and the comet fragments are still going to hit earth, there is a dramatic moment when they explain to projected impact sites. One in the ocean and one ... in Canada. For whatever reason my friend and I both burst into laughter when they said Canada. The whole theater turned to glare at us.
Pardon my ignorance, but I thought a "weeb" was someone who obsessed over Japanese culture in general, not just anime. So let's say I have a degree in Japanese studies but don't geek out over anime, am I still a weeb?
I had no idea they weren't internationally renowned, but I grew up listening to 89x so I guess it would make sense that I knew of them despite being American.
On my multi-player play through Wyll fell hard for my Paladin (probably because he's a goody two-shoes) and when he asked him to dance I was like "sure let's have a fun time in face of this overwhelming catastrophe" and then after the dance was done I quickly realized it was quite a bit more than a dance. When I politely informed Wyll that I did not care for him in that way the look of hurt and betrayal he gave me... it made me wonder if I should quick reload and be gay for him, so I didn't hurt his feelings. -_- poor Wyll.
And I think this is the crux of the problem and where most of the hate comes from. You can have a good kaiju movie without Godzilla, but can you have a good Godzilla movie without Godzilla? I would argue that no, you can't. I would also argue that the monster from that movie wasn't Godzilla... it was Matthew Broderick. /rimshot
But seriously, a lot less people would have ragged on that movie had they given it a different name, but arguably a lot less people would have seen it if they had given a different name. 🤷
Oh man, let me tell you about The Flying House.

Turns out maybe my ultra-christian grandma is the reason I turned into the heathen weeb I am today!
The first CD I bought was Very - Pet Shop Boys. I liked the single go west quite a bit and the CD was very different from all the other albums in the record store.
I do not remember my first tape, but I do remember that being the first CD I spent my own money on.
I use it for tuna or egg salad, but that's it. I wish I could find something that works just as good but I actually like.
Oh man, my family loved Super Solvers Midnight Rescue! I vividly remember playing that with my older siblings, but our monitor was green and black, no color, so I'd never actually seen it before in color. But the music stuck with me and probably sparked my love for In the Hall of The Mountain King.
Also had Ernie's magic shapes and colors... which was pretty hard to do when everything is green. What were my parents thinking buying a color matching game without a color monitor?
Combat on the Atari 2600. There are games I remember better, but I do know that was my favorite... just no one would play it with me.
Doesn't really consider upcasting though...
I started playing during revised, specifically with the Fallen Empires expansion, and thought that the 4 card limit had always been a part of the game. I looked at my Pocket Players Guide from around that time and could not find that rule. After a little bit of research I ran into this comment on reddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/magicTCG/comments/2jxr9z/comment/clh3ip7 which seems to have an answer although their source linked no longer works. In 1996 the mirage rule book has the 4 card limit listed under "house rules" and in 1999 the Sixth Edition Comprehensive Rules Document has the 4 card limit listed as rule 100.2
Again unfortunately the link to that document is broken so we can't be 100% sure, but it seems the answer is sometime between Mirage in 1996 and Sixth Edition in 1999
