Yes, but also:

And the journals quickly recognized her expertise.

So no crying historians in that story. She researched, proposed an article and the community said: "Good idea!" The whole "Oh, all those fine scientists laughed about the average joe/jane!" is just a common tale in those stories.

Let's lick it first, then piss on it to prevent counter-licking.

I declare ownership of this car!

...

That's how it works, right?

So, it's a Butt-Hydra?

[–] Ophioparma@feddit.de 3 points 9 months ago

Yup, absolutely! Something like 15 - 32 should be fitting.

Ok, die t-online-Umfrage ist doch genauso Grütze, dass sie direkt die Narrative mitliefert.

Wo ist meine Antwort: "Ja, weil es in Zukunft den Wohlstand Deutschlands sichert"? Nein, es muss unbedingt impliziert werden, dass E-Autos Deutschland ruinieren werden.

Actually, they working on the microbe stage for years now, but their goal is actually the whole Spore experience.

the word “yoink,” a coinage of Meyer’s, which characters sometimes utter in the act of snatching something

That implies invention by Meyer, doesn't it?

Yeah, absolutely right. "X is like a new part of Y" must make sense for being a successor. Nobody will say "Last of Us is just like Uncharted IV"!

But you would not argue that F:NV is the spiritual "successor" to those movies just because they were referenced.

If I didn't know about Hotline Miami and you told me about like: "It's like somebody made a new Hitman game!" I would be completely lost playing the game. Whole different perspective, style, flow. IMO being a "successor" implies more than just similar elements or references.

That said, wtaching out for examples I do not find so many other, that I think are similiarly weak as the Hitman/Hotline one. So it may be the exception in the list.
