Elden Ring Fans Reveal Their Personal Names For Enemies

You know those weird pustules that occasionally emit poison gas in Elden Ring? Those things actually have a name: "Land Squirts." Not exactly the name I would have picked, and it certainly wasn't what I called them even after I'd spent almost 200 hours in the Lands Between.

And apparently, I'm not alone. Reddit user silkendreams recently posted a very good question to the Elden Ring subreddit that revealed the personal names Tarnished gave the Game's numerous enemies, from Runebears to Fingercreepers, confirming how many of us share a personal nomenclature.

By far the most popular answer to the question "what did you call enemies before learning their true name?" came from user Mxnokuma: "Little shits, every enemy." Appropriate, given Elden Ring's difficulty, but perhaps not very creative. It also makes it rather difficult to identify particularly troublesome enemies.

User BuffNerfs had a similar problem with Elden Ring's Imps. "Used to think Imps were Gargoyles," they wrote. "Then I found a real Gargoyle and still kept calling the Imps Gargoyles until I realized that doesn't make any sense."

Many Soulsborne veterans admitted to simply using the names given to both enemies and various in-Game items shared between Elden Ring and the rest of the series. "Hollows, Estus, Souls, Bonfires," wrote user 50-Lucky, "this is the way."

Another commonality between Elden Ring players was the name given to the Royal Revenant, perhaps the single most difficult non-boss enemy in Elden Ring. It's so difficult that user bereved refers to them as "OH GOD OH FUCK," while user Telravis_Has_Risen offers a slight variation with "OH SHIT OH FUCK." And yes, I know healing spells can make short work of Revenants, but I still haven't gotten around to playing a pure faith build.

As for those land squirts I mentioned earlier, I called them "gassy crawly boys," even though I'm pretty sure they were just weirdly animate plants that didn't have any concept of gender. And even though I know their true name, I will never think of them as anything else.

Over 3,000 migrants have hit NYC shelter time limit, report says

About 3,000 asylum-seekers have been told their time was up in New York City shelters, but about half have reapplied to stay NEW YORK -- About 3,000 asylum-seekers have been told their time was up in New York City shelters, but about half have reapplied to stay, according to a newspaper report. The United States' most populous city has struggled to contend with the arrival of over 120,000 asylum-seekers in the past year. About 60,000 are currently in shelter s run by the city, which is legally required to provide emergency housing to homeless people. The obligation is unmatched in any other major U.S. city. Mayor Eric Adams announced in July that New York would start giving adult migrants 60 days' notice to move out of city shelter s. The policy has since been extended to families with children, and tightened to 30 days for adults not accompanied by youngsters. Migrants, many of whom don't have legal authorization to work, can reapply for shelter if they can't find...

VIDEO: Crashed UFO Or Military Machine? UFO Crash Near Laredo, Texas 1948

Texas Monthly magazine recently included the Laredo UFO Crash on a list of the eight most significant UFO cases in Texas History .Interestingly, this case is said to have occurred almost exactly one year after the more famous Roswell UFO Incident. Rumors about this case first began circulating in the 1950s, although details were not widely known until 1977. This case shares similarities with the Del Rio, Texas UFO Crash of 1955 and the Coyame UFO Incident of 1974, both of which reportedly also occurred along the Texas-Mexico border. According to Texas Monthly, talk of a UFO crash near Laredo first surfaced in the 1950s[2] , with additional details being released in 1978 by the late Leonard Stringfield, one of the first UFO researchers to advocate serious investigation of reported UFO crashes. Stringfield wrote, “In the Fall of 1977, new word of a 1948 crash came to me from a well-informed Military source. His information, however, was scanty. ...
