This is what I came into this topic to say. If it hadn't been cancelled no one would care about it. I watched it for the first time in 2010, because my friends were playing the Serenity RPG and told me I had to if I wanted to join, and was immediately let down.

I'll echo the last two posts in that I've never noticed MoonSong as an annoying poster but is it not normal to ignore posters you've never personally interacted with? I've not interacted with most of the people I've ignored, just frequently found myself going "oh naughty word off" when I see their posts.

There are a ton of people I see talking about their group online and I can't understand why they wouldn't just stop. Just the act of having to always be the one in charge of scheduling, and reminding people of the schedule, and making sure they stuck to the schedule has made drop groups before...

In America, anyone can claim to be a nutritionist since I don't think it's regulated in most (if any) states. I think this might be reversed with dietician in some of the other English speaking countries.

I've got family members who would unironically call a town the size of Manhattan, KS 'the big city'

I was going to say it sounds a lot like what I grew up around, but even then there was always a Chinese place somewhere and a few gas stations selling fried chicken (side note: this is usually fantastic chicken)

something something the duality of man

I have never been to Maryland but that sounds kinda good to me.

Just brace yourself for a lot of jokes that feel like they were written years ago, questionable voice acting choices, and weird pacing. There are some genuinely good moments in it though.

Season 14 is...ultimately, fine, I guess. I absolutely hated the first episode, to the point that I almost stopped watching, but it gets better.

Well this just gave me flashbacks to my college friends arguing we should eat at Waffle House

My rural grandparents don't even have a landline anymore, and according them most people their age are cutting them as unnecessary expenses.

Banana ketchup ime can range from very different to basically the same thing. I wonder if there are sauces made from bananas that just get called 'ketchup' in English, like what happens with curry.

Well there's certainly no way to comment on that link specifically without violating some rules

I've swung around hard on backstories. When I first started playing I went all out on them, but then I realized that no one else I played with did and the people running almost never cared. Now I just come up with enough to have something, and the last time a DM asked me to write them a...

I've not seen the movies, but I read Killing Floor after watching the tv show and now I think Richardson's portrayal is...weird. TV Reacher comes off more neurodivergent than realistically intelligent to me (not to say a person can't be both of those things). I was pretty surprised at how...

At the risk of being glib, I grew up. I could say that I grew up in a household that didn't really care about movies, so once I was exposed to more of them I became more critical, and that's true but its really just that I'm not the same person I was when I was 9, or 11, or 14. A lot of the...

Imprinting is definitely a thing. I know a lot of people whose tastes seem to have ossified sometime around college, and don't have much interest in anything new or in being critical about the things they loved as kids. But how strongly it happens can vary quite a lot. The Star Wars prequels...

The idea of being trapped with only the places I went when I was 10 years old sounds like hell to me, I have a hard time understanding people like that.

I'd say you're in fine company as both Merriam Webster and the OED agree with you.
