TV Tropes is one of the great Time Sink websites. Now that the entire Internet is only 5 sites, it's nice to go back and waste an hour reading about the Xanatos Gambit.

Took me a moment. "Yeah a little O2 could help a lot of ailments. Wait, CO2?"

I'd almost swear they allow this to make the art collection more infamous. 'Mona Lisa' gained immense fame from being stolen.

I'll meet you partway at three-fiddy. 3.5% and a frog costume, yes.

Some folks have no problem stereotyping but have a hard time generalizing. "This particular trans person that I know is okay." Yes, now spread that idea broadly.

The conservative brain-rot and 'quarterly earnings' type of thinking. Much like the AI slop they want to push, everything about MAGA is absolutely disposable. This admin is basically vibe-coding.
