Hm.

Do you want to stop playing chess after every other move and be forced to watch part of some medieval war drama unfold before continuing?

Yes, that sounds amazing actually

People don't know what words mean anymore. Everything is hyperbole

They literally tell you when you go through setup.

Probably the reason why you never learn anything.

If I was rich there so many countries I'd rather live than the USA. New York would be cool, living in a penthouse. I would hate LA. Miami would be cool. But other than that? Literally dozens of cities around the world that I'd rather be in.

I'm not well-versed on the subject, but is ticket scalping not a large-scale business at this point? Like, yeah individual ticket holders can be opportunistic, but don't bots buy tickets by the thousands as soon as they go on sale?

I mean.

Would you not like to hear the OG voice but in your language? Movies dubbed in Spanish sound straight up awful to me because the voice actors sound wonky compared to the original.

Not everything has to be about a greedy CEO, sometimes the proposal could actually be good if done right. We seriously need to chill with this narrative in every fucking thread.

When did they make the UPS change? I made a return last week, no charge.

Why, more money of course.

Give me a prime membership that's just for shipping. Cut the video out of the deal and stop including it in my charge kthx

Is there a button to turn the screen off?

Well, as far as the show is concerned, we learned the ending rather quickly. Some would say disappointingly quickly.

Fuck D+D

Out of curiosity can you define "no boring intrusive story"? Because personally I'm big on storylines, so if they nail that part then that takes the game to a whole other level

It's just a job, of course I would. I feel like I dislike most companies anyways, including the one I work for so it wouldn't change much.

0.007% guys, math checks out.

I'd do it too. Here I am working my ass off for the next 30 years to save maybe $1m for retirement and someone's willing to just give it to me after 48hrs of suffering? No brainer. I'd ask questions about the plan to keep it safe of course, but if I was satisfied that they knew what they were doing, I'd do it no question. I'm surprised that most are saying no to this. I mean shit, at least try.

Brain dead is such an understatement too. They lost everyone's trust, and I'm not sure there's anything they can say to regain it. They're gonna try something like this again at some point, and I don't think anyone should give them the opportunity. They deserve to go under.

I've heard two theories for this that I think are plausible:

• A feeling of familiarity even though this is a brand new situation. Your brain is always trying to determine the best course of action from experiences where you've encountered that problem before. Sometimes we have a false positive where the situation is so similar you "remember it", but it's obviously slightly different and new.
• Essentially a memory read/write error. Your brain is recollecting as it's consolidating the memory causing wonkiness (technical term) in your experience. You think you remember, but what you're remembering is actually the present experience.
