The Force in StarWars: little microbes in your blood that are magic.

The Force in Dune: Space drugs.

Dune is star wars for people who eat magic mushrooms

i havent watched any of the films and dont know what tool is

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I listen to tool, I've seen star wars, I don't really have any interest in dune.

I'm probably broken though.

Okay but what if I told you that a few books in, Luke Skywalker's kid becomes a sarlaac pit and won't stop resurrecting Chewbacca no matter how many times he tries to die?

... Is that appealing?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Not really.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Put it like that and Dune is even less appealing

I listen to Tool, but do not watch or want to watch both Star Wars and Dune.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

It would be pretty unpleasant watching both Star Wars and Dune. I would recommend watching them one at a time so that you can understand them.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

do you need to watch things die (from a great distance?)

Wait a minute. I listen to ~~poob~~ Tool but prefer Star Wars, what does that mean?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

so he's correct twice a day?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

When I listen to Lateralus and when I watch the Star Wars Holiday Special, obviously.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It means you only have a good opinion sometimes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Hey, wait a minute, just cause I like mediocre music for 16 year olds doesn't mean it's a bad opinion. That's just mean.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I love tool, was referring to you liking Star wars over dune

[–] [email protected] 19 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Nah, kid. I'm 10,000% gay.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I have been looking at this for 5 minutes and still can’t decide if it’s ten or ten thousand

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah comma as a decimal people have ruined a perfectly easy to understand number system.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yeah point as a decimal people have ruined a perfectly easy to understand number system.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

Can confirm, gay space worm

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Must be why I think Dream Theater is better

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think Dune is closer to game of thrones, especially the politics side, Leto II (let's make him not worm like in this example) would have everyone under his thumb in Westeros, ruled over everyone

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

But would you still love him as a worm?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I would but it would make his character too overpowered, he would be bran with the all seeing eye and have superhuman strength speed like children of Dune and his burrowing, healing abilities in God emperor. He does have a great weakness with water, but even that would be trivial to him

But I don't listen to Tool.

...well, not exclusively.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Have you heard of wheel? They are very similar

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago
[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't listen to Tool, but I do like Dune and Star Wars without being a massive nerd about either. Though I respect massive nerds. Massive nerds are cool.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You should probably listen to Tool.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Seems like it
