I actually appreciate some details of Star Trek: Discovery
At first, when I watched it, I thought it was absolutely ridiculous that Starfleet engineers built spark and flame generators into the Discovery’s bridge, but thinking about it, given that you have inertial dampers and other things that minimize or completely eliminate the physical feeling you would receive from the ship...
Name a more ridiculous scene than the one in Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End, where William and Elizabeth get married in the midst of a ridiculous battle in a maelstrom at the climax.
I dare you.
I finally watched Battleship (2012).
Is it now a Hollywood tradition to make really shitty movies set in Oahu?...
As a longtime Stargate fan, what the FUCK is this.

Does anyone still play this?
I’m sponsoring a large tournament in October but I quit playing this game over a month ago. The shift from “you can play this on any device” to “you can only compete with an analog device” soured my experience so much I gave up. It feels like Nadeo has lost their way....

My brother (ahem from another mother) told me that I couldn't make an inoffensive joke about left handed people.
Turns out, he’s right.
What did it sound like, the last time you dated an opera singer?
Wouldn't it be cool if
You could increase the strength of a stratagem by repeating the pattern, but backwards. So like airburst is ➡️➡️➡️, but if you did ➡️➡️➡️⬅️⬅️⬅️ then it be double?
Diablo is dead - I would like to shutter this community.
I played Diablo, Diablo 2, Diablo 3, and Diablo 4, all on their respective launch days. I really enjoyed the first two, and kinda hated the third one until they fixed all the bullshit. However, Diablo 4 was a piece of shit from day one. I enjoyed it for approximately 10.724 days. Rounding up. I’m absolutely done with Blizzard....
What is your current FICO/credit score?
Mine is 667. I have never used credit cards, and I don’t have any debt. My partner, whose FICO score is 780, currently has about twice their annual salary in debt.
How often do you misrepresent yourself online?
I asked a related question about how often you lie, on a daily basis, but I think this is more apropos for today’s general aesthetic.
I have not watched Starship Troopers in over a decade, but I watched it today, because of this game.
It is better than I remember. The visual effects are far better than should have been possible for the time. The story is exquisite. As I watched it all I could think was "For Democracy!’
