Well yes, the example given is from 2001

Right, but they're specifically talking about breaking your pact with (the Christian) god. Like, y'know, the devil did. Warlocks were devils, not protégés of devils.
Oh hey, it's the guy from Bee Movie

Do Larian deserve your money less because they licensed trademarks from a company that considered and then backed down from a license change? And for this you'll rob yourself of a fantastic experience? What a strange value system. Wait until you find out how they made sausages, or your phone.
It is completely overblown, and most people seem to be picturing the people from Red Dead Redemption and not a dead brand name that a Swedish security company bought to do collections under. Yes if you have sensitive possessions of a company they will send someone to get it, not trust you to mail it back to them.
The context that this was to prevent an NDA and happened within a month of someone else breaching an NDA with a leak that had a handful of noisy people declaring D&D dead is also pretty important, but never mentioned. It would never have even been a story without that context.
Hamas is not "fundamentalist Islam".
Not sure how you've managed to confuse them with the Taliban besides whatever your national programming is.
The most amount of effort for the least return of actually helping human beings.
And that's just your post itself, so far.
Can I ask what you think the Julian calendar is?
Can you tell me what's transphobic about it?
When I first saw it I would have thought it was trans-supporting, other than the detail that (IIRC) the trans woman was played by a cisgender woman.
The entire point of it is that the only thing that is stopping Douglas from being genuinely, incredibly happy, becoming a better person and living an actually fulfilling life in the end is his inability to accept a historical detail that had made absolutely no difference to his relationship. And, since Douglas might be the worst person in the world, we see him destroy that because of his own weird machismo values. Just when we think he's completely changed as a character, his shittiness on this one thing, emblematic of his incredibly toxic masculinity, comes crashing down on him. This is, darkly, funny. We are abruptly reminded that Douglas is an actual monster, to the point of fist-fighting with the person he loves. "Character is briefly happy but previous behaviour and/or shittiness of their character ruins it for themselves" is like at like 30% of Linehan's sitcom plotlines.
If there's something I missed - and it's been a few years, and thoroughly agree that Linehan's subsequent behaviour justifies examining his previous work for ulterior motives - I would like to know it. Genuinely.

So, uh, you guys just invented image macros again. Huh.
