Why does a grown adult have to put in any bed-making effort past pulling the sheets/comforter back up to the pillow? And that only if you really want to?

Unless Better Homes and Gardens is coming over to do a photoshoot of your stately mansion's nautical decor and fine use of color, who gives a poo poo.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Honestly out of all the to-do lists I've tried, its the one I like the best and still use. Its actually a pretty good Kickstarter success story.

You know what I'll bet you my dentists says four because people are lazy and will do a half-assed job, that devious bastard.

My understanding is a lot of what Dentists say is less about what is actually good, and more about tricking people into doing enough.

It's 2 because it's long enough that people do everywhere in their mouth at least once. You can effectively brush your teeth in less time, and do damage brushing for too long.

Mouthwash is the same, they don't recommend using mouthwash after brushing because people end up skipping the brushing.

That's some terrible SEO considering that Spinneroo is already a F2P slots game, several organizing and industrial spinning devices, and a type of windsock.

Also I could already buy almost a dozen Bluetooth-enabled fidget spinners from the checkout line at the store for the price of one of those.

I know the one where Superman bombs a concert hall to stop Pat Boone singing a song Clark Kent wrote about Superman where the first letter of each line spells "Clark Kent." Just turning Jimmy into a woman to seduce someone seems far too subtle for Superman.

Batman Odyssey also has a lot of shirtless Bruce Wayne rambling at you.

It was written by Neal Adams who started in that time period.

Although in Neal's defense he was also one of the people who killed that era off as well, he worked on the Speedy is a heroin junkie story.

From the Batman comics I've read, Bruce seems to sit around the Batcave shirtless a lot. He either stays in full Batgear or strips down to his Battights. I know he's tough as hell, but you'd think sitting around in a massive cave he might at least have a dressing gown or something to wear for slouching around the cave in. Batsweatpants?

Holy Moly! DARKSEID IS!

Mainstream comics are overall garbage, which is why I selectively back comics on KS these days if I want to read a comic. Many of those are also garbage, but it's a little sad to see amateurish or mundane projects go unfunded while some embarrassing anime crap gets overfunded (I'm looking at you, Barbarossa). I notice that board/card games do insanely well, are there ever projects of those types that don't get funded?

There are at least 2 successful deckbuilding games with art by Tim Buckley, so I'm going to go ahead and say no.

One of the guys who wrote a ton of DC comics through to the 90s believes gravity is fake and what it is is that the Earth is constantly expanding, so when you throw things in the air the Earth's expansion causes it to "fall". And he wrote a series of Batman comic books where the inside of that infinitely expanding Earth is also hollow and has people living it.

John K is the guy who created Ren and Stimpy, he's pretty infamous for being a literal crazy person and also his insistence that the one true objectively correct way to draw cartoons is to make everything as grotesque and deformed as possible in the name of expressiveness. The guy who draws Penny Arcade got super into it after they got popular and has steadily regressed until now everyone he draws is is a hunchbacked bucktoothed freak floating in a void of desaturated colors and bloom lighting.
