Just rewatched the Season 5 premiere of Adventure Time. I'd seen it before, but just, damn. coupled with an insane amount of world building, the whole thing feels like a rollercoaster of drama and comedy that can leave you chuckling one second, and literally the next swings back into drama until your gasping and a little teary-eyed at the same time.

I am... probably True Neutral.

I generally obey the law, but mostly because they make sense. But there are rules that I don't agree with, and if I can get away with not following those, that's probably what I end up doing.

I am usually nice (or at least polite) to people, or try to be. But let's face it, making a personal sacrifice for strangers is not that easy, or else everyone would be giving up all their extra cash and/or time to charity or something.

That said, I also like to think I lean towards Good. Just not enough to cross the alignment threshold.

[up] This reminds me, I need to watch more Adventure Time. I want to see if they reveal more about pre-Ice King Simon.

@crimson I don't need the helmet! I'm playing Stallone's Dredd.

Oh snap.

Anyone know how to track down mysterious inexplicable memory leaks in Python?

@Dark: Hard to say. My first exposure to Adventure Time was on TV, so the list of episodes I've seen is kind of scattered, and I don't know which seasons they fall under. For that matter, I don't even remember the titles.

The only season I watched in full was Season 4. (I was curious about Flame Princess, so I started there.)

@Crimson I just wanna dress up as Dredd, go up to random people and tell them, "You Betrayed the law!"

I don't care what the alignment chart itself says, Pinkie is chaotic. She may not subvert order directly, but as Rainbow Dash says, she's "so random."

@Story: Well, I know less about coding than you, but Python is loop-based, right? Maybe a loop just isn't terminating when it should, so it keeps on going and that's causing the leak?

I know enough to know every problem is different, so I'd have to know about your code specifically.

@crimson LOL! Laughed at that so hard! People who don't know that movie were like "WTF is he laughing at?"

As for my own alignment, I'm probably either Neutral Good or True Neutral. I'm not the nicest person all the time, I have my bad days and I swear too much, and I don't have a lot of respect for the government of any nation. On the other hand, I generally obey the law, listen to my parents, and I truly want to help others if I can, unless I'm having a terrible day or I'm really tired.

Ah. Season 5's premiere forms a linked trilogy with the ending of season 4 that is a major part of the Lich arc. It goes like this with the Enchiridion, His Hero, the two parter Mortal Folly/mortal Recoyle, the snail now watching Finn and Jake throughout season 3 and 4, in Your Footsteps which has an important scene in an otherwise normal episode, and comes to a head in s4's finale with the Lich. Then season 5's Finn the Human/jake the Dog two parter forms a trilogy concluding the Lich storyline for now.

As a whole the show seems to work as Better on DVD, as you can watch the arc-heavy episodes in order once you know what episodes to look for. Doesn't help it's very heavy on continuity when there's a important episode and the show assumes you know about the plot points.

Yeah, I'd probably fall under Neutral Good as well. I tend to follow the rules by default unless I think they're inherently unfair, at which point Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right! kicks in.

Also, Twilight is Lawful Good. It's pretty obvious.

Sometimes I envy these people who can properly fit into one of the corner alignments.

Then again, I kinda like my non-extremity.

I could be a druid, if I were into nature and stuff.
