December Ramble Topic Voting
Hey all! Here are our topics submitted for the month of December. I thought the new voting system worked well last month, so I'm leaving it enabled for this one as well.
You may vote for as many topics as you like! Please submit votes by 1/6.

Oh God please tell me you're working on a video for the sequel to that Jeff the killer fanfic
I'd be quite into Pokemon, especially as you've just played the Switch game. But also Into The Spider-Verse because I think it ended up being my favourite movie of last year (except Infinity War, maybe?)
Honestly, Jenny could explain HTML for 2 hours and I'd still be interested.
ditto on that. caveat; i'm not a star wars fan, but jenny has a knack for tackling subjects i have no vested interest in, and making them fun and fascinating to hear about... that's her true talent. i had no real interest in theme parks before, but now i want to go visit at least one when i drive cross-country later this year, and it's all because of her. her enthusiasm for the things she loves in her life is what made me join her patreon. you all can condemn me now for not being a star wars fan. 😜
It wasn't my topic suggestion, but it bums me out to see people saying the year in review topic is boring. Jenny kept delaying last months ramble specifically because she was anxious that we might find it boring, and now I'm worried people are going to give her that same anxiety for this video. I'm not saying don't discuss what topics you want to win, but I just wish we could do it in a way that doesn't insult the other topics by saying they are boring, especially now that we know this is something that Jenny has anxiety about.
No, Jenny didn't think of *herself* as a style expert, and thus had some anxiety about whether her observations would be interesting. Our Hostess has zero problems being utterly fascinating when describing [RUN-OF-THE-MILL] things; if anything, we are setting ourselves up for a little roasting by an open fire by making such a [COMMONPLACE] request, so SWITCH NOW to Overly Quick Romance!
I loved Spider-Verse but I'd like to get Jenny's take on it since I'm a lazy surface level thinker on/of films.
But what about the overrated directors who force quick romance into their movies?
According to Dr. Z's theory, "the most quickly overrated romance in screenplays" would be the true winner of December.
Brand new patreon here! I have a weird curiosity for hearing people thoughts on what they perceive as overrated so I really hope the overrated directors video wins!
Welcome!
As part of the horse naming mob I have watched Steve Ray turn every ramble not into ATC victory. I feel I am sitting at the feet of a master. How does it work for this month? Sidekicks, check! Cats, check! Pokemon, check (I guess)? But what about Spiderman? 50/50? Or do we just wait to see how close the vote is and making a judgment call at the end of the month? 🤣
As part of the horse-naming mob, did you stick around and then vote for the future animal topics, as per the charter? Or, having enjoyed the horse names with everyone else, did you then sneak away, leaving spilled drinks and dirty dishes everywhere, and vote pell-mell for whatever looked fun that month? It sounds like you are ready to step in as leader of the ATC for 2019, and show us how to win those Rambles.
Good topics, you topic suggestions types! I voted, but any of those other topics (except :whispering: that year review one) look like good ramble hay.
I literally only care about Pokémon and Destiny in this world, so let’s pull it together folks!!!
POKEMON
Nooo. Year end reviews are boring.
Word...we just *did* 2018, so how about a 1918 year in review? Wait, Peter Jackson just released that...NVM.
I love love love your rom com analysis! Rooting for thoughts on overly quick romance!!!!
also rooting for wreck-it ralph 1 & 2, thought i don't think it has a chance. it has some pretty sharp jokes aimed at disney, which i think jenny could appreciate.
i'm rooting for Thoughts on overly quick romance in stories. it seems like a pretty rich topic to mine, though i'd love to hear jenny ramble for a while about cats... that would be a fun video.
Welcome to the Coalition!
What is 'overly quick romance in stories'?
like in romcoms, where people fall head-over-heels instantly.
If you're looking for a new voting system, I think that the best way to handle things like this is to have everybody rank their favorite to their least favorite, with (in this case) 8 points going to their favorite, and 1 going to their least. Then you can tally up which has the most points to figure out the most liked.
Use Australia's preferential voting system it is the most fair.
I just really like listening to people talk about how Spider-Verse may have resonated with them tbh. It feels like everyone I talk to has a different aspect they point to first, just because it’s all so wonderfully done
