I'd say the comments section is gross and cynical, but then I remembered this is a British community.

Dude, I just had this realization on my own a few months ago. I grew up thinking weeds literally choked the life out of grass and other plants by definition. So after some thought I started saying to myself and others "weeds are just any plant you don't desire in your yard, they aren't a species or group, the word means nothing"

Not gonna lie, this isn't that bad. Especially if the dressing you drench them in is fatty instead of carby

It's not so much that he forgot his name as that he remembered his face. At his age, and after all these years? Yeah, that's cool.

This is the best.

I mean, let me be a nerd for a moment here, but most superpowers don't work without complementing powers and specific definitions. In the case of teleportation, you have to decide how conscious the decision has to be, but also like, do you just have to imagine a place? Do you have to have been there before? Do you have to be able to see it? Can you accidentally teleport inside objects? Or can you be like, "I want to teleport to the nearest discarded wallet with at least $200 in it"? I mean, what are you really able to do, and how do you initiate it? Fun to think about, in my opinion.

A lot of Christian sects are stupid, but I always found Catholicism particularly inconsistent about their own teachings, even more than Baptists.

I can't speak for everyone, but the transition from one version to another loses almost as many features as it gains. It is especially crappy about its provided sprites, to the point where we keep losing entire sprite types, many sprite sets are just plain unfinished or untested, and they insisted we move from sprites that people could somewhat take seriously to chibi/moe sprites that nobody on Earth can take seriously for an adventure game.

Another issue is that the series keeps releasing new versions that are incremental improvements at best, and they want us to pay a lot of money for each installment and half-sequel with said very few improvements, and also pay for a lot of content packs. There are things that should have been added 15 years ago and still aren't here. They can't even allow us to customize menus, and countless other issues. Honestly the dev team seems like they're not very good at programming or art in the first place, and they're just raking in money from incremental improvements over many decades. People try to excuse the engines' lack of basic features with "but you can program it in Ruby/Javascript yourself!" Which is a really bad thing to rely on for a game-creation engine of this type.

I'm sure other people are annoyed by things I'm not even thinking of right now.

Working on it. After we move, I'm buying larger SSDs for my NAS.

I hate both crypto and fascism?

I guess you just outed yourself as a troll. Not that that means anything.
