Monologues are not allowed to exceed 5 minutes on a date.
I’d date them
Well, yeah, duh. That’s what chronological order is.
As a cartographer I’d be right there with you talking this out.
Try dating other autists, normies don’t uh, speak your love language.
Must love trains.
This thread is completely devoid of map sea monster facts and that’s a travesty
Sometimes, the map monsters are green.
#moderatequalityfacts
The sea is lovely, dark, and deep And we have miles to go And promises to keep
did you know that sea monsters are afraid of light?
Don’t listen to this, this is lies spread by sea monsters to make us put lights on our boats, making them easier to spot
Look, this little light keeps the sea monsters at bay. Well, that and the moon
This is top tier flirting and I should be so lucky to have it directed my way. Luna can get it.
I have a hard time reading “phobia for eggs.” I feel like it should be phobia of eggs. Or egg phobia.
ikr I think one of the main reasons the Nemi comics never hit it big in the US is bc they don’t have very good translations.
Why such a phobia for for?
They had had a bad experience with with, so i get trying for for phobias.
I never wondered why the map sea monsters were placed in the locations that they were placed in.
I am now wondering why the map sea monsters were placed in the locations that they were placed in.
Frankly I never questioned why there be monsters as marked.
This. They’re marked there cos that’s where they fricken’ are!
I would like to hear this 27 minute lecture on sea monster map placement.
Can I get a longer version? Maybe with drawing classes, because those maps were awesome!
I said consummate Vs! CONSUMMATE!
Yea, I feel like I’m missing out.
Ditto!
Can I get the TL:DL version?
Didn’t hwat?
Listen, presumably.
If she doesn’t want to hear your dissertation on sea monsters then she’s not the one.
Agreed. Not because she’s as fascinated by it, although that would be a plus. But she should be enjoying the time with you, seeing what makes you excited. If that doesn’t attract her, move on.
Be sure to do the same for her interests also. You don’t have to be captivated by her hobbies or knowledge of something, but you should like watching her explain it to you.
Plus, it just sounds interesting. Who wouldn’t be interested by that? I’m always baffled by people who don’t like to learn random shit.
Agree completely- I adore people who are excited about anything and tell me about it with enthusiasm!
That said - it needs to be mutual. Awesome for you to lecture me on your passions - but it’s not a fun relationship for me if you aren’t also eager to hear about the things I want to share.
Unironically. When you find the one, they will love you because of this, not in spite of
Every once in a while I’ll say something completely incorrect so she talks science to me.
Valid — proof is that i love my wife and she loves me
No no no. You need to start by explaining the evolution of mapmaking, before focusing on the monsters.
Non-map people don’t have enough background on maps, so you must provide that first.That must have been the problem. I feel like it’s the same problem I had, not describing the backstory to middle earth fully to my date as I told her of the third age…
How did you expect her to understand the significance of the Númenor and the sword of Elendil, or Aragon’s reluctance to claim his rightful throne, let alone the rings worn by Gandalf, Galadriel, and Elrond? Or why there are exactly nine ring wraiths?
Honestly, did you expect her to just accept the notion that some existential evil was for some reason deciding to wake up now and begin terrorizing the entire known world, without knowing the reasons why, or why destroying this old piece of jewelry is the only way to defeat the evil?
Even the movies cover that part in the very beginning!
Unironically if I went on a date with someone and they infodumped for 30 minutes about sea monsters on old maps I think I’d fall in love lmao.
I would be in love.
Well, you know what? I’m surprised we’re not in love already
I mean, 27 minutes barely seems enough for a proper introduction to such a vast subject.
They didn’t know what was there so they made pretty art… thats basically the gist of it… so yeah… you got the introduction in a sentence…
Not hating 27 minutes is either to much or or not enough… but in this case not the right person
OP was the sea monster all along.
maybe she has a strong preference for sky monsters!
