This Can't Be Happening (Green Ideas)

Product Information

Graces seems to love this trope, since it is delivered word-for-word not just by Richard but by Emeraude and the Fodra Queen during the final fight with her as well.

The Cell from Future Trunks' timeline gets this reaction when he realizes Trunks has become stronger and faster than he is due to training in the past. The Future Androids also have the same reaction, unable to grasp how the one they easily beat before is now Curbstomping them without even trying. In Twilight's Kingdom Part 2, Tirek shouts this when he see Twilight and the Mane Six with their new Rainbow Power, unable to understand how they are empowered again after draining their magic. Kuyou: No! He lives?! But that's impossible! I saw what my flame did to him! His body was burned to a crisp! I'm not really a fan of transcribed speeches but some of the essays included here were really good. if you were to read one thing from here, I recommend the "Embarrassment of Riches".Mantle’s former slugging teammate Roger Maris finished his career that season with the St. Louis Cardinals. The Yankees gave out bobbleheads of Maris on Sunday, commemorating his 61-homer season in 1961. They’ll have a similar promotion next month for Judge, who broke Maris’s A.L. record with 62 last season. I got there and it was like one of those moments where you don't really know what's happening. I just sat on the floor thinking this can't be real. This can't be happening." This was the reaction of the Fae Princeling in Tales of the Questor when discovered to his horror that he called The Wild Hunt on Quentyn. In that world, it is specifically forbidden by Lord Oberon himself to do so on a Raccoonan and to make matters worse, Quentyn's skunk stripe means he's favored by the White Stag, and such people cannot be hunted either. So, the Princeling is in trouble with two offenses simultaneously. I think everyone should read this book and all the other books in this new Penguin collection (I can tell they're all going to be important reads, just based on my experience with this one). They're all written by writers well-known for their writing on nature and the climate. I've got four of them on my shelves, and just happened to start with this one. I'm really glad I did. In the finale of Heroes Reborn, Erica Kravid has this reaction when Tommy reveals that he has the ability to circumvent her Sadistic Choice, and that she made it possible because she'd had him trapped in Evernow where he literally had an eternity to practice how to put himself in two places at once. She screams "No. That's impossible!" before trying to shoot him.

The Joker screams exactly this trope name in Batman: The Devil's Advocate after he learns in court that he's just been found guilty of multiple counts of first-degree murder, and now will almost certainly get sent to the electric chair. (He'd assumed that he'd always be thought too insane to ever be convicted by a jury, let alone receive the death penalty.) Played straight in Van Helsing, when the titular character starts transforming into a Werewolf( the only creature that can kill Dracula ), Dracula says just this. Considering ol' Vlad had just recently sent a werewolf after Van Helsing et al, you'd THINK he might have considered this possibility. In Final Fantasy X, Wakka declares "This can't be happening," after the party views Jyscal's Sphere and learns that Seymour murdered him. He says it again after Auron states "We will protect Yuna from anyone, even a maester" and yet again if the player has Wakka use the Talk command to talk to Seymour during the battle. Later, Lulu declares "This...this cannot be!" when Yunalesca tells the party that there is no way to truly defeat Sin. The God Empress of Ponykind: During the Siege of Canterlot, the Shadowbolts attempt to corrupt the Loyalist Lunar Knights the way the rest of Luna's Legions were corrupted by Nightmare Moon, only for them to fight it off, eliciting this reaction from the Shadowbolts (right before they get killed). Over the past 75 years, a new canon has emerged. As life on Earth has become irrevocably altered by humans, visionary thinkers around the world have raised their voices to defend the planet, and affirm our place at the heart of its restoration. Their words have endured through the decades, becoming the classics of a movement. Together, these books show the richness of environmental thought, and point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world. Read more Look Inside DetailsHelen said: "I was absolutely devastated. It made me feel like he had died all over again, like I'd just lost him for the first time. I felt the same as when I first buried him. I was desolate." Subverted by The Big Bad in Fable II when the hero ends his rant midword. Complete with laconic sarcasm. Though the player can beat said sociopath to the punch if he likes. income is by far the most important determinant of environmental impact" leading to "Perhaps the most radical thing we can do is limit our material aspirations." The book was the focus of an episode of the television series Great Canadian Books in 2010. Justin Trudeau described it as "a wonderfully funny story that appeals to the adolescent in all of us" and as the book that awoke his interest in reading. [1] In Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, Gilbert Durandal has this reaction when the Requiem cannon is destroyed by the Infinite Justice and Akatsuki.

George Monbiot is passionate about the climate crisis and preserving what we have left of our natural world. I thought a number of these essays, the strongest ones, were quite thought-provoking, and made me consider the climate crisis more deeply. I think his strongest work is where he's offering his own experiences of climate change and his own grief about the decline of the natural world. Where he's reporting the speeches or efforts of others, this book isn't as strong, but, with those essays, he does capture a moment in time in the fight to save the natural world. In Mo Willems's Edwina, the Dinosaur Who Didn't Know She Was Extinct, when Reginald's first plan to convince people that there is no Edwina because dinosaurs are extinct fails, he stands around, waving a sign in red letters reading "This is not happening." It doesn't work either. THIS CANNOT BE! THE SCHOOL MUST BE CLOSED! YOU ARE NOT FIT TO BE THE PRINCIPAL ANY LONGER! YOU ARE TOO OLD AND YOUR ALZHEIMERS IS DANGEROUS! YOU MUST RETRY OR VOLDEMORT WILL KILL YOUR STUDENTS!" Said to Dumbledore by Doris Rumbridge (Dolores Umbridge) after the Ministry thinks Dumbledore isn't doing enough against Voldemort. Count Waltz in Eternal Sonata in the second battle against him, which only occurs in the PlayStation 3 Updated Re-release. "I can't believe this. How could I lose? Impossible. I will not accept it. I will never accept defeat!" Both Leon (first encounter) and Pigma (second encounter) of Star Wolf exclaim "This can't be happening!" when defeated.

Ultimately, it's a slender volume (again, more on that below), and Monbiot doesn't break a lot of new ground, but he tells a powerful story ... and he reminds us that stories matter; indeed, he forcefully argues that we need a new story if we're going to change our climate change (or, dare I say, species') trajectory. He continues to frustratingly rant about this in the Ghost Zone, but the end results did have Vlad getting what he wanted which sets the stage for a latter episode. Uttered in The Legend of Dragoon by Rose when, at the end of Disc 3, "the emperor" reveals himself to be Zieg, another dragoon from the old, old days. This isn't the only "cannot be" moment LOD offers. In Tales of VS., during Stahn's story mode, Khang screams this when Phillia decides to fight along side with Stahn against him.

During Part 3 of The Greatest Gift, Hazel , Trixie's mother, gets this when Trixie starts to overpower her in the Beam-O-War between the two.

Early in The Phantom Menace, Nute Gunray shouts "This is impossible!" as Qui-Gon melts the blast doors to the bridge of the droid control ship. Giroro from Sgt. Frog winds up catching this phrase from an enemy who thought he'd killed him. In this case, however, " Sonna bakana!" might be better translated as "This is madness!", since Giroro's response is to scream " THIS IS SPARTA!!" in Gratuitous English and Megaton Punch the bad guy straight through about a dozen walls. Also works as Actor Allusion; Giroro's seiyuu dubbed Gerard Butler in the Japanese edition of 300. I would have recommended this book to most readers and my friends. But mostly people that like comedy. I would recommend this book to people because it is hilarious. It is funny because they are always playing jokes on people. Ryoko Asakura utters "It can't be!" in Haruhi Suzumiya, right after Yuki started terminating her. While she looked desperate while saying it (complete with Puppy-Dog Eyes) she gets a hold of her Stepford Smiler face again, after that.
