X can't be the Kwisatz Haderach, we already have Barron

Elong Junior is definitely gonna be Feyd

[–] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I thought it was canon that Barron is Leto II Atreides

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

I think X would be Leto II as Nevada would be Leto II the elder

I read this as the site tagline before seeing the actual post. Does this mean I have spice-granted prescience?

My son is gonna have to knife fight on top of a giant sandworm boohoo

[–] [email protected] 18 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The problem with kids these days is that they don't have to knife fight on a giant sand worm. In my day that's just how you got to school. Our parents would give us a knife, push us out into the desert, and say "Don't come back until it's dinner time". Taught us backbone and moral character and how not to get eaten by a sand worm. Well, except for all of my friends that got eaten by a sand worm of course.

WTF is she talking about, being named Paul in a far future SF story is basically the polar opposite of being named like a poop sample collector drone irl.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 7 months ago

It's real...but it's two years old.

X: Why would I join you guys

Hamas: Join us and you can change your name to Ahmad or something

Ahmad: Deal

Clearly, the Elongated Muskrat has set up the world's most fucked up succession exam system for his children to earn their inheritance.

Elon saying “Put your hand in the box” except the box is a tesla

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That's fucked. At least the pain box didn't have any danger of killing or maiming you.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

I mean whether the box did anything or not, the gom jabbar killed a lotta people.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

The burning! The burning!

He thought he could feel skin curling black on that agonized hand, the flesh crisping and dropping away until only charred bones remained.

Which was true, as contained within the box was a lithium fire.

X longed for the sands of Arrakis.

Girl thinks she bred with Leto Atriedies and not Baron Harkkonen.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

eh, that'd mean the kid is sting, which is still too kind...

anyway, as far as musk is concerned, grimes is just an axolotl tank...

Nah Feyd is his nephew.

Grimes thinks her kid will be the messiah. Bro your kid will be afraid to leave the house due to being relentlessly bullied because of his name. His destiny is to be a Reddit mod

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

If I had to guess they'll probably do like a lot of famous people's kids and just avoid the public eye and probably get some do nothing job in media, change their name to something more banal and just live their life.

That or they'll go total nepo baby and do some weird art piece where they shit on a velvet portrait of their mom, idk.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

She thinks her son will be the Muad’dib, folks. Crazy Grimes, that’s what I hear the people of Arrakis call her.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Wow, they will blind X AE A 12 then let them die wandering into the desert?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

Only when his prescience bar runs out

[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Is that seriously his name...

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

I can't say with certainty, but my guess would be that "horse dentist" is a pseudonym. I don't think anyone could be so disconnected from reality that they think giving their child such a nonsensical name is a good idea.

He is the Kwizatz Haderach

He is born of Caladan

And will take the Gom Jabbar

He has the power to foresee

Or to look into the past

He is the ruler of the staaaaaaaaaarrrrrssss
