A) that sounds like fascinating job and B) would you also accept 'Weyland Yutani'?Dalisclock said:As I've mentioned above, two things tend to stick in my craw with fiction.
-Military Portrayals by people who have never actually been in the military and/or bothered to do the research. When you can't even get basic ranks right(Hint: A Naval Officer should never be referred to as "Sergent"), just give up and write something else. Or, you know, read the fucking wikipedia article on basic rank structure for the branch you're showcasing.
-Nuclear Power....pretty much anything. If your nuclear power plant explodes(and it's not a special type of reactor like Liquid sodium), go back and actually read up on how that shit works. Because reactors don't explode. Worst case scenario, they melt. It's called MELTDOWN for a reason. Also, if your reactor has no safeties or cannot be easily shut down, there had better be a damn good reason(like it was operated by Umbrella or something).
This probably has nothing to do with my last job being a Reactor Technician in the US Military.
BTW, CRYSIS, You are so grounded. You failed miserably on both of these.
Anywho one thing that bothers me, with Frozen of all things bringing it to the forefront of my mental list, was intentionally vague advice regarding something highly dangerous. That fucking troll couldn't say something as straight forward as 'The power will grow as she does, and she must learn to accept and control it as a part of herself. Give me a second and I'll get onto my guy in Asgard'. No he's got to dress it up with dramatic licence that preys on the instincts of otherwise decent people and it leads to disaster. Fuck that guy.
Okay that last part is wish fulfillment on my part but the point stands.
