TERRIFYING PRECISION and ARCHITECTURAL GENIUS of checks notes

...

double-checks notes

"Knowing how shadows and windows work"

Man, the bar is unrealistically high for some people...

As someone who never planned on playing Balatro, and was kind of getting tired of seeing it on my feed the way I got tired of helldivers 2 stuff right after release.

I would happily toss a tenner to the dev for a lawyer over this.

but provides no evidence of wrongdoing

So surely it will be rejected and nobody being sued will even need to show up since nobody even has any evidence?

Surely....

Clearly they never spoke to Bobby Tables.

saw war as a thrilling, life-or-death, adventure.

That just sounds like psychopath-lite...

Part 1 is the first act

Oh my god I just now got what my sister meant by "the act break is super long" and why my mother replied "lol" in the family group chat.

Same.

I listened to the original Broadway cast so many times I was concerned I wouldn't like a "cover" of it. After my sister said she liked it, and listening to a song and not finding it objectionable, I had even considered watching it.

This is the first I've heard of it being a two parter, so they hid it well. I'm surprised my sister didn't say anything

Not a chance in hell I'm watching it until part two comes out in physical media so I can watch them both in one go. I hate breaking up the flow, even for a few hours while I wait for the next screening...

if the characters behave too unnatural

My wife doesn't get this.

I can't stand watching some movies because every part of the movie is just one character doing something unnatural or outright insane that nobody would ever do, and the people around them react in similarly unnatural and insane ways.

And certain old movies (especially holiday oriented ones) that lean heavily into the "everyone here is a bumbling idiot" trope crank this up to 11.

If you enjoy said things, awesome. Good for you. Keep watching them, it literally does not affect me. I'm genuinely glad you have entertainment. I just won't watch it with you.

1: you are absolutely correct

B- YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT MY MAMMA REEEEE

She's college educated with a degree to teach math k-12, which just goes to show even a good education isnt always enough to make people see logic and reason.

Sweet baby deity, I hate sidewalk blockers.

I had a bruise for months on my shin because some douche nozzle parked with a hitch sticking almost to the other side of the 4ft sidewalk.

If you can't park nicely inside the space, at least have the decency to walk your happy ass across the parking lot and park in the back.

My mother, who literally works at a hospital fighting with insurance companies all day long to get things approved, "doesn't understand" why this happened in the first place, and thinks all the people who are pleased about it are "sad and pathetic"

Personally I think she fully understands why people cheer it on, she just chooses to ignore it because things aren't bad enough for her yet so CLEARLY everyone else is overreacting....
