[–]Kensin 0 points1 point ago

Although I'm pretty sure that the series was aimed at girls...

It was, but it stands out as a rare example of a cartoon marketed to girls in the 80s that was actually pretty good. Most cartoons that aired in that time were just 30 minute marketing spots for toys, and most of the cartoons (marketing) aimed at girls were terrible (my little pony, strawberry shortcake, rainbow bright, etc). This led to to the prejudice that cartoons made for girls were bad. Jem was a remarkable exception. Great style, high drama, some pretty adult themes, and genuinely good music made this the 'girl show' worth watching for kids in the 80s. It was a great show and even today my niece loves it. She thinks Jem is a super hero, like batman and I can't disagree.

      It makes the original more impressive, doesn't it? The commenter can't even use the word "word" properly. Nice instant comparison.

      Similarly, I watched a film called The Russian Ark in college. It's a 2 hour movie shot in one shot. Not a a terribly interesting movie, but it's an incredible feat. Anyway, when we watched it, the projectionist messed up switching between the reels, and the film stopped. We all smiled and reflected that if even this little task couldn't succeed, how truly technically impressive was the execution of the single-shot film?

      [–]x2501x 6 points7 points ago

      Unless it was a very new film shot digitally, how did they do two hours in one shot? I don't think they ever made film cameras that could run more than about 10 minutes on a reel before changing.

      [–]yinoryang 5 points6 points ago

      It's from 2002, so yes it was digital. 2000 actors in amazing costumes! Worth a watch--your head spins as you realize the choreography / blocking necessary to weave it all together. As I understand it, they got about 2/3 through the first time before they gaffed and had to start over. Ouch.

      [–]x2501x 12 points13 points ago

      Have you seen Timecode? If you haven't--it's actually four continuous 90 minute takes, all shot at the same time with four different cameras in different parts of LA. The characters move around the city, at times crossing paths with each other so that they also had to choreograph keeping the cameras from being seen in each others' shots. Pretty cool, worth a view IMO.

      [–]x2501x 3 points4 points ago

      You would assume there had to also be countless rehearsals, so I'm sure one more live take wasn't as bad as you'd think.

      [–]yinoryang 0 points1 point ago

      Interesting point...with that many actors, could they have had that many rehearsals?

      I'm guessing the gaffe was mostly financial, because now they have to continue paying so many people.

        [–]cynicproject 0 points1 point ago

        If there was a lot more link text and it was larger and bold... maybe slightly easier I guess?

        [–]HarlequinNight 0 points1 point ago

        There is a slight difference the one from the OP seems to have corrected.

        "intercommunications' " has been changed to "intercommunication's"

        I bet the bash.org poster chose that so the letters lined up better with only punctuation breaking the triangle. Still, I believe the OP's version is correct.

        [–]WishiCouldRead 0 points1 point ago

        It depends on whether you read intercommunication as a group noun or a single piece of communication. If the latter, then the "pharmaceutical intellectuality" can decipher many pieces of communication, making the plural possessive apostrophe correct.

                Poe, E. 
  Near a Raven

 Midnights so dreary, tired and weary. 
   Silently pondering volumes extolling all by-now obsolete lore.   
     During my rather long nap - the weirdest tap!  
   An ominous vibrating sound disturbing my chamber's antedoor.  
       "This", I whispered quietly, "I ignore".

        [–]celticmagnumWoah or whoa? 3 points4 points ago

        I'm a poetry n00b, care to explain what this means and why it's impressive?

        [–]Elanthius 6 points7 points ago

        It's a line by line rewrite of Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven which maintains an awful lot of the feel and rhythm and language and has the same rhyming scheme and yet every word is the same length as the digits of pi. And there's 740 words of the damn thing. It's ridiculous.

        Compare to the first verse of The raven

        Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

          Is "incomprehensibleness" grammatically correct? Shouldn't it be "incomprehensibility"?

          [–]abusementpark 46 points47 points ago

          Yes. And i disagree with the use of the word "transcendentalizes". Given the context, it should just be "transcends". Unless the author intended to mean that the fact that pharmacists can read doctor's scratchy handwriting makes the whole affair of reading bad handwriting transcendent. Which i guess would mean that reading bad handwriting changes from just regular reading into an act that surpasses the normal plane of reality if the reader is a pharmacist.

          [–]TheTranscendent1 14 points15 points ago

          As the #1 ranking official on this matter I would have to agree with you. They had to stretch a bit to find something for that spot it seems.

          Exactly. If you ever said something like that it would be laughed at.

          [–]damontoo 1 point2 points ago

          You can easily do this without being a genius. Write a small script that displays words based on word length. Possibly filter to show only nouns, verbs, adjectives etc. based on where you're at in crafting your sentence. Take into account synonyms and related words to make it easier to write about a specific subject.

          [–]ice_ent 0 points1 point ago

          Came here to say this. Also, work backwards. Start with words of N length where N is the length of the sentence, since there are fewer of those than smaller words. Working backwards, it becomes much easier to construct such a sentence. Software helps find all words of length N in a dictionary.

          Transcendentalizes does not really mean the same thing as "transcends" which is the only part of this sentence that stymies the meaning.

          Is there a word for a term used in place of another term that sounds similar but doesn't actually mean the same thing?

          illegibly perplexing

          I'm sorry, but this doesn't make sense. The "perplexingness" isn't what's illegible, the handwriting is. It would make sense to say that someone's handwriting is "perplexingly illegible", but not "illegibly perplexing".

          Unfortunately, the entire feat is far less impressive when you realize this.

          [–]fauststriving 0 points1 point ago

          Why can't it be perplexing in an illegible way? In contrast to, say, something that is perplexing but legible (like a koan).

          Word number nineteen does not fit the paradigm. A contraction of two words does not one word make.

          Yeh as a computer science and mathematician arguably the top of the so called totem pole I honestly believe every time a grammar nazi criticizes me another bartista looses a job to a high school student.

          Your whole argument is nullified by the fact that I was commenting on the pictured tied to this thread and reddit culture in general which seems to take pleasure in criticizing grammar as a end all be all for intelligence. So is it hypocritical to mock people who openly mock others. Not it's fucking called karma, and stop being a grammar nazi you walking stereotype.

            [–]AllahCoholic 0 points1 point ago

            It's a cool sentence but you don't have to be a genius to make one up, you just need to be INCREDIBLY patient and persevere to find the right word. You would be a genius if you were like a savant in the sense that you spoke your words with their letter count in an interesting sequence, particularly upon request on a random topic. Such a feat warrants worship in my opinion!

            pompous is a better term

            [–]kcviews -1 points0 points ago

            i do not see how a statement including a self-proclamation for mere reference to make a sarcastic joke stems arrogance. then again, with just plain text, one could easily assume a voice of pomposity (yeah, just made it up) rather than sarcasm. i can assume from reading your bland text that you are thinking, "what is an arrogant, pompous, almost-doctor doing here on whoadude?!?! claiming he is better than others because he is not offended!" ....but really, why do we hang out on whoadude :-P cause what a long, strange trip it has been.

            Shh, don't tell that doctor guy, but I'm really an English major like you. :-D

            [–]kcviews 1 point2 points ago

            it is not gloating, i was expressing how the play on words is not meant to be impressive to an english major and the statement about family doctors is not meant to be embarrassing. i apologize if my statement of self-proclamation came across as a "gloat", it was a statement of reference.

            [–]ice_ent 1 point2 points ago

            Oh! Then kindly accept my apologies and rudeness as a result of my misunderstanding. I have edited my statement.

            Nah, my post was mostly tongue-in-cheek, though I really do dislike when people go around shoving their massive credentials in other people's faces.

            [–]blindminds 1 point2 points ago

            i think this dude was making a joke with a reference because the post mentions doctors.. that is sort of peculiar that you saw it as this dude "shoving" his credentials over a reddit post.

            [–]ice_ent 1 point2 points ago

            He and I had a chat and resolved my misunderstanding. I changed my response to his comment. :-) All is well.
