Mumpy Puffinz posted:they both have their good points. What was wrong with the Last of Us show? I have only heard good things My main problem is that no one ever says or does anything cool (besides for one episode that was pretty good). I know this sounds like I'm a stupid guy for saying it, and I got other problems with it too (and tons of issues with TWD, even if I think its much better) but I think if you make a tv show or videogames its important that people do and say cool things every once in a while Fighting Elegy fucked around with this message at 02:21 on May 29, 2023 |

Jeeps should be rent-only. You can have it for a day, drive it through some mud, then you have to return it and go back to a normal goddamn car that gets more than a hundred feet to the gallon

only a small proportion of jeeps are wranglers, most of them are the same four cylinder shitbox crossovers every other brand makes on that note, people drive those shitbox crossovers because modern sedans are absolute torture for anyone over 5'5" to be in the back of, I've heard it's for fuel economy but that's bullshit, a Mercedes W124 from the 80s has a drag coefficient under 0.3. no they just have those swoopy rooflines so you can pretend your Nissan Sentra is ~*sporty*~ Woolie Wool fucked around with this message at 04:48 on May 29, 2023 |

other car hills: * manufacturing "green" cars is far worse for the planet than keeping old cars on the road so fewer new cars need to be produced * many modern safety features in cars would be unnecessary if cars were only used when necessary and driven by professionals (school buses are much safer than cars despite often not even having seat belts because the driver is doing it as a job and paying attention). in addition this would make the few cars that are left after the banishment of private ownership much lighter, more efficient, and safer for pedestrians * most people don't like driving anyway, if you think you like cars but are not willing to maintain and work on a vintage car you are lying to yourself * absolutely no car should have wheels larger than 18", ever, under any circumstances, most shouldn't even have bigger than 16" Woolie Wool fucked around with this message at 05:25 on May 29, 2023 |

I also think Succession is adored because it’s a decent production by HBO and you’re supposed to say it. I’ve watched it from start to now finish and I just regret sitting through the whole thing. Most of my media takes are usually pretty average but I’ve upset people.

Boba are disgusting and a total grift. Hmm yes, I would love to pay an additional fee to be given less of the delicious drink I ordered. Please fill the remaining space in the cup with nasty flavored balls that are slimy on the outside with the consistency of undercooked pasta on the inside. The flavored jelly is cool though, hell yeah young coconut milk tea with pineapple jelly.

Comstar posted:The red text to the left of this post is incorrect. Ham, Pork, and Pig Bacon are the most overrated meat by a lot. While we're on the subject-- if you're going to be a meat eater, please at least like, consider not defiling the meat for culinary experiments or outrage attention. Something gave its life for your meal. Preparing it well is the absolute least honor you could show for them.

mind the walrus posted:Fair enough. It doesn't care how it's prepared, and unless you're killing it with your own hands, honoring it is a kind of an odd thing to focus on, considering the horrors you've put it through with your consumerism. I could care less about them defiling the meat if they actually ate it which I doubt they do (mostly because half the time I'm pretty sure it would kill them), so I will go ahead and share your criticisms for outrage attention. But I do not share your el-meat-ism. Pigs are delicious.

Tea Party Crasher posted:All of the dorky examples of why you should use the Oxford comma are being willfully ignorant of the fact that you could just reorder your list to make more sense- just like you would if you were speaking out loud. The Oxford comma carries a lot more grammatic meaning than a simple pause in a sentence conveyed by similar characters such as ellipsis or dash. It's more like parentheses in that if you start using commas to delineate the things you're listing, there is an absolute need to include one before the last 'and' conjunction, or else the last two items become an unwanted semantic pair. For example, "At the wet t-shirt contest the crowd was wet, wild, and loud." By including the Oxford comma it says that there are people in the crowd affected by any combination of these, but not necessarily by more than one. However if you're to remove the last comma, you get 'wet, wild and loud' thereby making it a requirement to be both wild and loud at the party but not one without the other. And no, reordering the list while leaving out the comma inherits the same fault of the last items being incorrectly grouped.

Mechanically that makes some sense, but on a practical level I'm not convinced it's necessary. Does anything actually change for the reader if wild and loud are paired or not? I don't think that meaningfully changes the description enough to make it confusing or ambiguous. I don't have anything against the Oxford comma itself mind you, my mind probably wouldn't even register it while reading. My issue is mostly with every "quirky" cartoon example that is intentionally poorly worded in order to artificially make the Oxford comma look better:

I just think it's ugly to have so many commas to be completely honest with you, so I don't like using it myself. I don't have any hate against people using it though, so we don't need to yell at each other about it unless we feel like making GBS threads up the thread
