Can't go past the classic cabbage, cabbage, cabbage, black pepper, black pepper, butter, butter, lard, lard, margarine, margarine and mayonnaise salad, bon appetite survivors

More fool me that I actually zoomed in to read the stories 😅

Fair perspective, but the bit that knocked me out was Bilbo's Big Last Stand at the climax of the first film - whatever can be said for the rest of the changes, that one just sucked all the narrative energy out of Bilbo's arc. It was waaaay too soon, and *only* an artefact of a three-movie structure

The trick is to have only like three followers, so you can change your profile pic with absolute impunity and impact zero lives (much like each time one posts!)

Someone travels across town, either driving through traffic or taking multiple changes of bus, train, whatever, in order to deliver a pithy misunderstanding to another character and then immediately leave without giving them an opportunity to respond and just clear the matter up.

Sadly, I have a no-reloads-for-story-choices policy on my save files, and in my two playthroughs I couldn't save the gnomes in the underdark the first time then legit hit the wrong lever on the windmill the second time 😅

I found it too hard to get into Ahsoka because of all the background it seemed to expect the audience to have with, what...two or three cartoon series, each with multiple seasons and hundreds of episodes?

Aww! Bluesky really IS what Twitter used to be! 🥰

Truly an horrific elevation of the joke thanks to how Bluesky chose to crop image three 😅

Sounds like an incredible premise and Mitchell seems like a perfect casting choice - shame about the apparent execution!

That's an interesting perspective! I stopped reading after the first book because I felt it was literally just LoTR with the serial number filed off; it had all the same plot beats in all the same places in the story, but transposed "I dunno, nuclear war?" For the first war of the ring.

Everything after the first three words in your own response here is directly contradictory to your original statement that "the Ganges really is pure" So...that statement is *not* true.

Yeah, I thought it was a direct evolution of Goatse links?

I'm ashamed how many minutes of my day I dedicated to trying to figure out how to read this post backwards

I think the last message I got from Edge was the one where they shamefully beg you not to download another internet browser. I haven't seen any after that because I downloaded a different internet browser 😅😅

Gotta admit that from Australia I still thought Charlie Kirk was the Star Trek guy

I'd be so much more interested if the popups were a "we've just added this bullshit, would you like us to never show it to you again?" feature
