That's a bit different, as in magnitudes more stupid (if true)
I blame all three + the driver again for buying this stupid fucking truck they probably don't even need and won't benefit them 99% time. But hey, it excels at killing children in driveways, so that's something.
This is a way for shitty writers to justify infodumping in their story. If your main character doesn't know shit about the world he just got put into, you can justify every other character dumping a huge load of setting and world building down his ear canal. Instead of, like, trying to mix that info naturally into the story, which also avoids the "as you know, John..." trope (where character A explains something to character B that they already should know), but requires effort and skill on the part of the author.
You could present those guys with a supermodel or the fucking platonic ideal of a woman and they would go "that's 7.1 at most, stop overrating"
Ukrainian officials also claimed their Air Force claimed it had destroyed fifteen Russian-made drones and carried out ten group attacks, the outlet reports.
That's way too many qualifiers. I understand being cautious with your statements, but this is almost unreadable.
did they expect to get their name in credits for doing their job?
Yes, that is the purpose of the credits. To credit people who did their job on the project.

I'm glad you have enough financial stability where you can pick and choose your landlord. It's unfortunate that there are plenty of people who can't "vote with their wallet" on account of not having all that much cash in there. And plenty of landlords who don't fear bad reviews because there's no place they can even be reviewed at, and even if they were to receive such a review housing is an inelastic good and in too short of supply for people to be picky about it.
Additionally, the government has no incentive to charge you more that what it costs to run public housing, whereas the landlord has a profit motive. Even if the government charges you more than how much it costs to build and maintain buildings, this money isn't send to a pit - it is used to build roads, railroads, sidewalks, provide healthcare, and to build so much more infrastructure and provide various different essential services. If you give it to a landlord, it's used to fund martinis and vacations on Ibiza. What's the better deal?
That’s way harder than other systems, where the government already owns all the homes, and can simply drive up the cost whenever they want :/
When was the last time you voted for your landlord?
Many of these, such as carbonara, pizza, and tiramisu, were actually invented in the US
From the article you cited:
Pizza is a prime example. “Discs of dough topped with ingredients,” as Grandi calls them, were pervasive all over the Mediterranean for centuries: piada, pida, pita, pitta, pizza. But in 1943, when Italian-American soldiers were sent to Sicily and travelled up the Italian peninsula, they wrote home in disbelief: there were no pizzerias. Before the war, Grandi tells me, pizza was only found in a few southern Italian cities, where it was made and eaten in the streets by the lower classes. His research suggests that the first fully fledged restaurant exclusively serving pizza opened not in Italy but in New York in 1911. “For my father in the 1970s, pizza was just as exotic as sushi is for us today,” he adds.
It clearly states something different than your claim. Pizza was not invented in the US, it was popular in the US.
From Wikipedia:
Modern pizza evolved from similar flatbread dishes in Naples, Italy, in the 18th or early 19th century.[31] Before that time, flatbread was often topped with ingredients such as garlic, salt, lard, and cheese. It is uncertain when tomatoes were first added and there are many conflicting claims,[31] though it certainly could not have been before the 16th century and the Columbian Exchange. Until about 1830, pizza was sold from open-air stands and out of pizza bakeries.
Many sources state pizza wasn't popular in Italy as it was in the US, but your statement on it's origin is 100% wrong.
