  • Hi everyone, I just finished season 5 of Adventure Time, meaning I'm now halfway through the show. This season was very good overall - probably my favourite season so far, and definitely a big improvement from season 4. Interestingly, this season was twice as long as all the other seasons so far, having 52 episodes instead of 26.

    My favourite episode was Bad Little Boy because I loved finally seeing a sequel to Fionna and Cake, and it was great to properly get to know Marceline's counterpart Marshall Lee since he was only a non-speaking cameo in the original episode. The songs were also fabulous in this episode, and the ending was very mysterious. It's also nostalgic as I enjoyed this episode a lot as a kid.

    My least favourite episode was probably the two-parter Lemonhope because I found it too weird and I didn't enjoy the story.

    - I thought Finn the Human and Jake the Dog was a very interesting two-parter season premiere that explores an alternate timeline in the AT universe, and I loved how it was resolved at the end.
    - I enjoyed Jake the Dad and found it wholesome and teaches good life lessons, although it does feel weird to think that Jake's a dad now since he generally acts much younger than his age and he's the best friend/adoptive brother to Finn who is still in his early/mid teenage years. I also found the ending kind of suprising but not bad I guess.
    - Mystery Dungeon was a hilarious episode featuring an unusual team of characters (with Lemongrab being particularly comedic) solving a dungeon, and I loved the plot twist that
    the whole thing was a setup by the Ice King in an attempt to bring his fanfictions to reality.
    - I absolutely loved Vault of Bones. I love how this episode focuses on the relationship between Finn and Flame Princess as they spend time together exploring a dungeon and I found their chemistry cute, as well as liking Flame Princess' hair and outfit in this episode. This episode reminded me a lot of Indiana Jones. I also really enjoyed the morals of this episode.
    - Simon and Marcy was a great and fairly nostalgic episode giving interesting insights about Marceline and Ice King's time surviving together in an apocalyptic world a very long time ago, and it shows interesting new sides to both of them. The episode is equally as sad as it is wholesome, however.
    - A Glitch is a Glitch was a supremely bizzare episode but I actually quite enjoyed it and found it entertaining, especially being a fan of computers and games in general.
    - I loved One Last Job and the interesting insights into Jake's criminal past it gives, and it's interesting Jake Jr says she's 22 which is exactly how old I am now.

    - I have mixed feelings on Jake Suit because while it was entertaining in some ways I didn't like how Finn and Jake treated each other in this episode when they're meant to be close friends/adoptive brothers.
    - I loved Be More and how it finally reveals BMO's backstory.
    - I loved Sky Witch as an episode focused on the female protagonists Princess Bubblegum and Marceline and the relationship between them. I enjoyed the callbacks to What Was Missing, as well as this episode furthering the implied LGBTQ+ relationship between the two ladies. It was also a good debut of Maja the Sky Witch and Crabbit. I also enjoyed the quote from Dylan Thomas' "Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night" which I remember I studied that poem in English class as a teenager and recognised it from this episode. This episode is nostalgic to me as I must have watched it many times as a kid.
    - Frost and Fire is another very nostalgic episode I watched many times as a kid, and I really enjoyed revisiting it. It has a lot of cool action fight scenes between Flame Princess and Ice King, as well as interesting drama and emotional tension.
    This episode also features the breakup of Finn and Flame Princess due to Finn deceiving her to trick her into fighting Ice King. Although I sort of enjoyed the drama there and thought the moral is valuable about how it's not fair and can be very hurtful to be dishonest to or take advantage of those close to you, I do kind of feel this breakup was too early, since they only became a couple in the previous season and aside from Vault of Bones I don't think there were enough episodes that focused on developing their relationship before they broke up.
    I even remember making my own video game based on this episode when I was a kid, sadly I no longer have access to that game now.
    - Too Old was a fantastic and highly nostalgic episode for me, as it's one I very specifically remember watching when I was closer to Finn's age and associating with my relationships to adults in my life, but I have to say revisiting this one now I'm 22 hits soooo different 😭
    - I also really enjoyed Earth and Water and also have lots of nostalgia from enjoying this episode as a kid/teen and relating to Flame Princess' struggles a lot, and I thought this episode was great character development for her.
    - The Vault was also a super interesting episode which finally addresses the cliffhanger ending of "The Creeps" in season 3, showing Finn's past life as Shoko and also giving interesting insights into the history of the Candy Kingdom. I like how this episode could sort of but not exactly be seen as a (positive) trans episode since Finn the Human boy used to be a girl in his past life and that's presented as normal and okay. It's also interesting how as far as I know, this is the first episode to reveal that Princess Bubblegum is actually hundreds of years old, there were some episodes including Earth and Water which showed she was older than she looks (e.g. she's already an adult in a flashback explicitly said to be 15 years ago) but they didn't reveal that she's REALLY old.
    - Apple Wedding is an episode I remember quite liking as a kid, but have mixed feelings returning to as adult for a few reasons
    1. While I enjoyed the debut of Tree Trunks' mother I really found it uncomfortable when she flirted with her ex-son in law, 2. Princess Bubblegum's behaviour was atrocious in this episode especially at the end although she does say the iconic meme line "nope nope stop talking go to jail" and 3. The King of Ooo is never held responsible for the ACTUAL reason that he's a terrible person and the wedding was a scam.
    - I enjoyed The Red Throne since it's also a nostalgic episode that provides even further development to Flame Princess.
    - I quite liked the season 5 finale Billy's Bucket List and thought it provided a very interesting cliffhanger reveal that
    Finn's human biological father is still alive out there.

    Also @Tangle the Lemur now that I've finished watching through season 5, would you be able to elaborate the specific reasons why you posted the reaction image referring to season 5 on my previous profile post after I finished season 4, and why you consider season 5 infamous? (using spoiler tags if necessary)
    Tangle the Lemur
    Tangle the Lemur
    Mostly cause of Frost and Fire, aside from being a great (sarcastic) example of Finn's character,
    it has some odd sexual implications. It's pretty heavily implied that Finn, who is turning 14 or so at this point in the show and would just be starting to enter puberty, is getting turned on by watching FP beat the piss out of the Ice King, which is why he keeps encouraging her to do it, not yet being familiar with the social expectations of... all of that. Those Cosmic Owl visions he has could also be interpreted as wet dreams, and a lot of the imagery and subtext of the episode seems to suggest that's what it's about. I'll admit it's a bit of a crazy comparison to make, but a lot of people online seem to say that's probably what it's about.

    Season 6 is a fun one. It'll break your brain by the end, but it's definitely worth it and I think it's definitely one of the most well rounded seasons. Season 8 is my personal favorite, however.

    Just wanted to post to say that I recently finished the Storybook of Legends (Ever After High book) and I royally enjoyed it, it feels like all the charm of the series in a book format that leaves more to the imagination. So it's a strong recommend from me to any fellow fairytale fans :) And I'm looking forward fairy much to the rest of the EAH books!
    Hey everyone, I just finished watching season 4 of Adventure Time. Overall, this season gave me the most mixed feelings out those I've seen so far, but it was still enjoyable. Here are my thoughts:
    • My favourite episode was Burning Low, because I have childhood nostalgia for it and it has very entertaining drama with a fantastic high-stakes plot twist and climax.
    • My least favourite episode was Web Weirdos because I found it gross and weird, I didn't like the story or characters introduced, and it didn't have any redeeming qualities for me.
    • Hot to the Touch was a really nice season premiere which interestingly takes place immediately after Incendium (the season 3 finale), making this effectively a two-parter in between seasons 3 and 4. Across this episode and Burning Low it was lovely to see more of Flame Princess, since her role was quite limited in Incendium until the end.
    • I liked Five Short Graybles. It was interesting that it takes place in the far future, and tells five short stories about the main cast of Adventure Time. I did manage to guess the theme. However, as a vegan and animal rights supporter I felt uncomfortable with the scene where Princess Bubblegum puts a cow into a machine to make cheese, since this is clearly shown as uncomfortable and non-consensual for the cow.
    • Return to the Nightosphere / Daddy's Little Monster was an extremely confusing two-parter, but started to make a bit more sense in the second part. Overall it was not bad, but fairly weak compared to other two-parters.
    • Princess Monster Wife was a very dark episode. I sympathised with the wife a lot and felt very bad for her, especially at the end.
    • I absolutely loved Card Wars. I just thought the card game with holographic pop-up visuals was super cool.
    • I quite liked Sons of Mars, which greatly expanded the lore of Magic Man, Mars, etc. However, I didn't like how
      The King of Mars sacrifices his life in his very first appearance since the pilot, since he was a very interesting character.
    • I didn't like Who Would Win because of how it normalises violence and Finn and Jake beating each other up felt out of character and I didn't like it since I love their close friendship.
    • I have mixed feelings about the season 4 finale, The Lich. I liked how it was very high stakes, greatly expanded the lore of the Adventure Time multiverse, and left on a really intriguing cliff-hanger; however the episode's plot felt forced, rushed, and out of character (Finn and Jake learned stealing was wrong in multiple previous episodes), the start felt too weird for me, and the plot twist while dramatic was too obvious.

    That's all for my thoughts on season 4! I'm looking forward to starting season 5 and hoping it will return to being as great as seasons 2 and 3 were.

    @Tangle the Lemur I don't understand your first comment and what you mean with that image, is season 5 considered bad or something? I actually started the first four episodes already and so far it seems pretty good to me so far.

    As for Princess Bubblegum, I'm not sure I haven't really picked up on anything so far indicating she's a bad person, but perhaps that relates to things that happen in future seasons, in which case I don't want to be spoiled. If you're able to explain why you think she's not a great person without spoiling anything in season 5 or later, would you be able to do so?

    Regardless of her being a good person or not I didn't feel comfortable watching the cheese scene.

    I haven't seen the show in a while, but I'm pretty sure it's not spoilers to just say that her character has authoritarian/control problems. You'll see them more clearly in later episodes, but I think people commonly cite Burning Low as one example of that where the way she acts was just kinda weird in general. There are more obvious hints later on, though.

    As for the first question, season 5 is good, and I won't risk accidentally spoiling anything by trying to explain why I posted that image. It's just infamous for a couple of reasons.

    Eh, I don't really think she did anything malicious in Burning Low.
    Perhaps she should have been clearer to Finn and Jake in the first place "you can't kiss Flame Princess because she'll be overloaded and be a serious danger to herself and everyone else" rather than explaining it in complicated science but to be fair to her Finn and Jake chose to ignore her and regardless, she only intervened in their relationship because she was trying to save everyone, and not out of jealousy or spite. And once the disaster at the end was averted, she didn't try to stop Finn and Flame Princess being together anymore. I don't think it's an authoritarian/control problem to warn a friend that what they're doing is dangerous to them.

    Hi everyone, I just finished Season 3 of Adventure Time. It was definitely my favourite season so far! Here are my thoughts:
    • My favourite episodes were Fionna and Cake and What Was Missing, both being extremely nostalgic childhood favourites, in WWM's case I distinctly recall it being my #1 favourite episode in the entire show when I was a kid, with F+C being a close runner up. So I was over the moon when I encountered them right next to each other on the season 3 DVD having been wondering since the beginning when they'd show up. Both episodes feature very fun stories, lovely songs (especially I'm Just Your Problem and My Best Friends in the World), heartwarming interactions between the protagonists, and fantastic morals about womens' independence, and the value of truthfulness and friendship above material treasures. I also really loved Bubblegum and Marceline's outfits in What Was Missing, they're both very stylish and I remember styling my makeshift fashion after them when I was a kid. I also really liked the interactions between the two women in this episode, which although it's not technically the first time they interact it's the first we really see into their relationship, and as someone who cares a lot about the LGBTQ+ community being represented in media, I loved that this episodes subtly hints a possible romantic past between the two women, though I'm aware that sadly the episode got a lot of backlash from homophobes for this reason. F+C introduces a gender-swapped version of the main cast, who were very interesting to meet, and I especially love Cake. And I have to say that this episode really touched my young heart as a (then closeted) trans kid, and it really hits different to watch it now for the first time since I've now been living as female full-time for so many years, and who still hasn't really had a boyfriend yet.
    However, I do have kind of mixed feelings about the ending where both Fionna and Cake start talking with admiration about the "Ice King", describing him as "the hottest hottie", and it's then revealed that the entire story was all a very weird fanfic written by the Ice King. I am aware that there is more detail later on about the existence of Fionna and Cake's world but I don't know what these details are and don't want to be spoiled on them.
    • My least favourite episode was Paper Pete, because I found it largely boring and low-key gross in parts, didn't like any of the new characters introduced, didn't feel it had a good moral, and felt bad for Jake who just wanted to study his girlfriend's heritage in peace, thus I found Finn's behaviour selfish and unreasonable.
    • I thought Conquest of Cuteness was an okay episode, but not the best as a season premiere.
    • Memory of a Memory was a great episode with an engaging story with a great plot twist. I enjoyed seeing Marceline get further development to her character and backstory. I did find the scene with baby Finn a bit weird and off-putting though.
    • Too Young was a fantastic episode. I loved seeing Bubblegum in her younger form, and her interactions with Finn. This episode is also the debut of the Earl of Lemongrab, who is an extremely iconic and entertaining character, and I adored seeing him deliver his first "UNACCEPTABLE!!!" In my opinion, this episode definitely should've been the season premiere.
    However, I do feel a little dissappointed that the "Bubblegum is de-aged into a 13 year old" dilemma was resolved within a single episode having been the big cliffhanger from the season 2 finale, and a part of me wishes we'd gotten to see more of young Bubblegum.

    • The Monster I found a relatively weaker episode, for some reason I can remember it more than most episodes from when I saw it as a kid, probably I saw it several times I guess.
    • Wizard Battle was fairly entertaining and a decent debut for Abracadaniel, however I don't like how the prize for winning the competition is a form of physical contact with a female character, that feels kinda gross to me to be frank.
    • The Creeps was a very fun mystery episode, with an engaging plot, and ends on a mysterious cliffhanger which leaves me eager to find out more in future seasons.
    • From Bad to Worse was a brilliant, captivatingly dramatic zombie episode and a great sequel to the season 1 premiere, Slumber Party Panic.
    • No One Can Hear You was an extremely strange and confusing episode, but I guess I kind of enjoyed it.
    • Thank You was a very heartwarming episode which I remember well from my childhood, it makes me feel nostaglic and I'm not sure I remember the reason but I remember that this episode made me feel a sense of closeness and gratitude to my dad in connection to some of the time we'd spend together at weekends when I was younger.
    • Holly Jolly Secrets was an excellent two-part Christmas special, and though it feels weird to watch a Christmas special in May I wasn't going to wait.
    I also think it's very interesting how this episode is the first to reveal Ice King's backstory as a man named Simon Petrikov who was given magical ice powers but also driven to insanity, slowly becoming the Ice King, and causing his wife Betty to leave him. Though Ice King's only reaction to Finn and Jake uncovering his backstory is feeling embarassed he used to wear glasses.
    • Ghost Princess was a really interesting episode which expands on the titular character who previously had only been seen in minor appearances. It has a really good plot, starting off with an intriguing mystery before having a massive plot-twist mid-episode.
    • Dad's Dungeon was a very fun episode giving us more insight into Finn and Jake's dad, and the song Jake makes by remixing his dad's tapes unironically slaps.
    • Incendium was a pretty good season 3 finale - I'd say better than season 1's but not quite as good as season 2's. This time, we're back to a 1-parter season finale, but that's okay. This episode is a good debut to Flame Princess - a character I remember being quite a big fan of when I was younger - showcasing the cute, romantic, and curious sides of her personality as well as the angry and powerful side of her, as well as introducing the Flame King, Flambo, and the Fire Kingdom as a whole. I really enjoyed Jake's whimsical behaviour in this episode, such as him using his stretchy powers to pretend Finn was there before pretend-Finn gets mad and attacks Jake. I also thought All Gummed Up Inside / All Warmed Up Inside was a good song. Overall, I think this was a great episode to wrap up season 3 and I look forward to seeing more of Flame Princess in future episodes!
    Hi everyone, I just finished Season 2 of Adventure Time on my DVD collection. I enjoyed it a lot, and more than season 1, which was already great. Here are my thoughts:
    • My favourite episodes were Guardians of Sunshine and To Cut a Woman's Hair. The former since as a video game fan it was awesome to see an episode themed around video games and to see Finn and Jake in a bizzare yet interesting new visual style. The latter because the premise was hilariously bizzare and the episode was full of fun scenes with Finn trying to get hair from various princesses. I also loved the ending where
      Finn finally gets hair from Princess Bubblegum, but it turns out her hair is actually literal bubblegum, so Finn is revealed to have epic long blonde hair and gives it up to the witch because he's a hero, but she plans to use it for evil, but then trips on it. However, I did find the scene with Princess Beautiful to be a bit too morbid for my liking.
    • My least favourite episode was Slow Love, it wasn't bad but I found it less enjoyable than others, and
      I guess I wasn't a fan of how it comes off to me as suggesting that romances between different races/species aren't meant to be even if that probably wasn't the intent. I also found some of the pickup lines pretty cringe and some of the scenes involving the slime a little gross.
    • I thought Loyalty to the King was a decent season premiere, and do vaguely remember it from when I was a kid.
    • It Came From the Nightosphere was a great episode and a cool debut for Marceline's dad, as well as great progression for Marceline's character and her relationship with Finn following on from Henchman in season 1.
    • The Eyes was a very weird episode but a fairly funny one too, and I definitely didn't see the twist at the end coming!
    • Crystals Have Power was an ok episode, and I'm glad that the bizzare ending of Tree Trunks from season 1 was finally explained and followed up on.
    • The Real You was a fantastic and nostalgic episode, with very cool dimensional bubbles and a great moral about how being true to yourself is more important than trying to impress others.
    • Susan Strong was a very interesting episode which builds on the lore of the series as it reveals that Finn is one of the very few remaining humans to the point he's never met any others.
      However, the ending reveals that the "humans" Finn met are not actually humans, with the exception of Susan for whom it's not revealed and left on a cliffhanger.
    • Mystery Train is a fun episode where Finn turns 13, and it reminds me a lot of MLP:FiM "MMMystery on the Friendship Express", which is also a "murder"-mystery style episode set on a train in an animated kids' show.
    • The Limit was an excellent and fairly nostalgic episode, with an interesting premise about Jake using his powers to help navigate a maze but his stretchy powers have a limit and he pushes himself too far. I also really liked the ending where
      the Hot Dog Knights and Jake waste their wishes but Finn uses his smarts to wish for the Ancient Psychic Tandem War Elephant, whom he then tames and has use its own wish to save Jake and the Hot Dog Knights, then escapes.
      This episode has a very good moral about how you shouldn't let peer pressure make you do things that aren't safe, healthy, or comfortable for you.
    • The season finale, Mortal Folly and Mortal Recoil, is the first two-parter of Adventure Time so far, and I enjoyed it a lot despite finding it very weird and confusing at times (especially part 2). It's a very dramatic epsiode which develops the lore of Adventure Time's world a lot, introduces a very threatening villain, and very much sets up for the third season. I definitely appreciate it feeling like a true finale as opposed to Gut Grinder which was very underwhelming for the first season's finale. I really disliked Ice King in this though,
      Particularly his carelessness being entirely responsible for Princess Bubblegum being dropped in the Lich's well, and his creepy behaviour of kidnapping her and wanting to marry her and trying to get Finn - a 13 year old - to bless that for some reason while getting in the way of his very important mission of stopping the Lich, and especially when he shows Finn and Jake he's written her name all over his arms and legs, that was yuck.
      I also liked that they kept the continuity around Finn's age since he was 12 in Tree Trunks and had a birthday in Mystery Train, and they referenced Billy from His Hero.

    That's all for my thoughts on season 2! Overall, I really feel like I'm enjoying Adventure Time and that the series is really picking up and developing its lore now. I'm looking forward to season 3 a lot!
    Hey MiracleDinner I was wondering, do you have any pets? I have a Cavapoo named Sophie and she is so cute. I also had two dogs and a cat. They lived long lives, but they've sadly passed away by now.
    Ok dumb question but why do you like vegan food so much? And how did you get into it or are you just naturally a vegan?
    Hey Miracledinner, I was wondering-what did you personally think of Maud Pie, one of Pinkie Pie's sisters, on Friendship Is Magic? I didn't dislike her, but she was very stoic and EXTREMELY serious and almost emotionless; I personally found her a bit boring LOL.

    I like Maud a lot. I concur that her obsessive love of rocks coupled with her deadpan personality is iconic and hilarious and gives her character plenty of charm, especially in contrast to her sister Pinkie. It's also wholesome how Pinkie and Maud care for each other so much in spite of their vast differences.

    Hi everyone, I just finished Season 1 of Adventure Time. Overall, I enjoyed it very much and don't think AT has any bad episodes so far. I don't have time for a fully in depth review of each episode but did want to give some thoughts:
    • My favourite episode was Rainy Day Daydream, since it's a highly nostalgic childhood favourite of mine with a very fun premise with lots of cool scenes, and with a compelling moral that our creativity is a wonderful thing and makes each of us unique.
    • My least favourite episode was The Witch's Garden, because I found it too weird and off-putting, especially Jake's man-baby form and Gary the Mermaid Queen, and I didn't really like the moral. While it's not bad outright, it gives me the most mixed feelings.
    • I thought Slumber Party Panic was a very fun episode and a great series premiere.
    • I thought Tree Trunks was okay, but it has an extremely confusing ending and I hope we'll get an explanation for that in the next season since we don't see Tree Trunks again in season 1.
    • I also thought The Enchiridion was a great episode, and it's interesting it was the first episode written although it ended up actually being the fifth episode.
    • I found Ricardio the Heart Guy a bit weird but still an okay episode.
    • I liked My Two Favourite People and it's Rainicorn's first major appearance. It's quite funny how the episode has some jokes that I didn't get because I don't speak Korean, and only found out after looking up a translation.
    • I thought Wizard was a superb episode, probably my 2nd favourite so far, as it's also one I remember from childhood, and it's full of lots of cool magical abilities that Finn and Jake gain. It has good morals too, like don't sign up to dodgy schemes which promise free stuff, and how rejecting the rules/status quo can solve problems.
    • Evicted was an okay debut for Marceline, one of my favourite characters from the show, and I liked the song, but I didn't like how this episode portrays her as being so mean to Finn and Jake.
    • I liked NEPTR's debut in What Is Life and thought it had a compelling story.
    • Dungeon was an excellent episode. It's interesting how they specifically mention "11 minutes" which seems to be a 4th wall break to how long AT episodes are.
    • Henchman was a pretty good sequel to Evicted, and a much better portrayal of Marceline, however I still don't like how she's so mean at the start.
    • I thought His Hero was a decent episode but have mixed feelings about the handling of the moral, because it's true that your idols can be dissappointing and you shouldn't always listen to your elders, but I think the episode should have made it clear violence was only okay because it was necessary to defend innocent people who can't defend themselves, rather than appearing to suggest violence is in some people's nature and that's fine.
    • I thought Gut Grinder was an okay episode, but I would have preferred a stronger episode to send off season 1, such as Rainy Day Daydream, Dungeon, or Wizard.
    That's it for my thoughts on season 1! I'm definitely looking forward to starting season 2!
    Hey MiracleDinner, I have good news. It looks like a seventh season of Gumball IS coming out, but we will have to wait a while. It's coming somewhere between late 2025, and early 2026. Probably the former, but we'll see. So, yeah. It'll probably come out sometime towards the end of this year or at the beginning of next year.

    Well I've started watching my Adventure Time DVDs and I'm very much having fun and loving the nostalgia so far! Tonight I watched the first 4 episodes of season 1; Slumber Party Panic, Trouble in Lumpy Space, Prisoners of Love, and Tree Trunks I think they were all great!
    It's Adventure Time! I just found a brand new DVD box set for all seasons of Adventure Time for a really good price! This is going to take me a while to watch through all the episodes (~280 x ~10 minutes = 2800 minutes = almost 48 hours, or very approximately the equivalent of around 5 seasons of MLP:FiM, but it's going to be super fun and extremely nostalgic! Plus, now I can finally get to watch the show in order which means it will make way more sense than when I watched random episodes on TV here and there as a kid, since AT is a continuity focused show unlike something like Teen Titans Go. I'm excited for this adventure a lot!

    Also I just found out that this DVD collection DOES include the "Stakes" mini series, which I hadn't previously thought was the case. That's great as it was one of my favourite and most nostalgic parts of the show from when I watched it on Halloween 2016!
    I tasted coconut milk for the first time today, and to be honest, I'm really not a fan. Out of all the plant milks I've tried so far, this one's my least favourite.

    @Knuckles The Echidna I disliked the taste of coconut milk enough that I don't think I'd use it for ANYTHING, not just straight up drinking - and its taste is quite strong so I'd imagine I would get that taste if I had it in cereal.

    I like oat milk as well but also feel that oat is a bit overhyped, like I think it's good, but it seems to be WAY more popular than the others right now based on my anecdotal experience, when in my opinion it's not my favourite - my favourite is soya milk - and there are some other plant milks that are great as well and don't deserved to be so overshadowed by oat milk.

    Anyway, and perhaps more imporantly, PLEASE Knuckles take care to ensure that the oat milk you are buying is certified gluten-free, because most products containing oats are by default not gluten-free due to a risk of cross-contamination with gluten in harvesting, processing, etc. This is one of if not the biggest reasons that oat milk is not my favourite plant milk and it's an issue I wish people would recognise more than they do, I've even known some gluten-free friends who have gotten ill by drinking oat milk because they didn't realise it had gluten in it. Even if you aren't feeling unwell it's always worth making sure that your oat milk is certified gluten-free.

    @Princess Zatanna Oh it totally is; my mom made sure of it and it says "Gluten Free" on the carton.

    By the way I just started a really humorous private conversation with you about something funny.

    Also happy 6th anniversary to DCSHG G2 since #SweetJustice premiered on IWD 2019!!
    Hey Princess Zatanna want to see something hilarious? The YouTube channel "GameOverContinue" made a compilation of all the funny "Game Over" screens for Totally Spies on Game Boy Advance. Do you want me to send you them? You'll likely laugh if you like that sort of thing, but then again if you don't like seeing your favorite characters getting defeated even in a game you might not want to watch and that's ok.

    Sure thing, I'd be interested.

    LOL here they are (sent the wrong link before; it was for the first game-those ones aren't nearly as funny):

    Rest in peace to Gene Hackman and his wife and his dog. I always liked Gene's performance as Lex Luthor in Superman (1978) and its sequel, and I loved how they referenced him by name in Teen Titans Go to the Movies. I'm glad Gene got to live to a good age of 95 at least.

    Yeah, it's really unfortunate that the three of them died so sudden and that Hollywood has lost a legend with Gene's passing. I do agree that reaching the age of 95 is quite the achievement though, and I hope that his legacy will continue to aspire future generations of actors, actresses, and other performers alike.
