I didn't understand that as a kid and I still don't understand it. Why would you take so little interest in what your kids like? I don't even have kids and I still know who Mr Beast is. I can't imagine having people I love, living in my house, who are into this stuff and not knowing all about it. The only way this kind of parental apathy can possibly make sense to me is if those parents just don't love their kids. It doesn't make sense to me.

Someone who needs to carry things. I think you could fit a fair few Easter eggs in there
Ah, sentient magic and kuva, that makes sense, thanks.
No, it's really hard to go to America.
Gonna buck the trend of beautifully produced games with serious stories here and say MAGICKA. Magicka is a multiplayer PvE game where you can craft spells however you like on the fly, and friendly fire is enabled. This results in utter chaos. Players constantly kill each other, both accidentally and on purpose, the battlefield is full of absolutely random spell effects from everyone's spells, messed up spells result half the time in accidental suicide and the other half of the time in new absolutely devastating combos, and nobody is entirely sure what's going on in the story.
This is ludonarrative synchronicity, of course, because Magicka's story is a comedy about a bunch of underprepared incompetent wizards exploring a universe of mediaeval fantasy satire and slapstick. It's great!
And that's why I never won Darkest Dungeon
I also never learned how the sparing mechanic works in Undertale because Toriel is a two-faced hypocritical abuser and when she told me I could defend myself from violent monsters by choosing nonviolence I thought she was full of shit.
The benefit is that it's not situated inside your chrome user interface, with the toolbar and the tabs, so there's more screen real estate. Also most people don't know how to make desktop/startmenu shortcuts to web addresses.
Well, if I lived in a small town I would need to either walk or give little kids asthma to get anywhere. And seeing as I have both a conscience and the pressures of 21st century fast paced living, it's impossible for me to live in a small town.
Also small towns don't got any gay bars
Didn't you have ads in the 20th century?
Well, sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines, and movies, and at ball games, and on buses, and milk cartons, and T-shirts, and bananas, and written on the sky... But not in dreams, no siree!
Did you tell them they were only expected to work on the assignment during the school term?
Yeah, I figured that out in high school too. I think it just irks me that different students are being graded on a different standard, subjectively speaking. The neurotypicals are being judged on their ability to learn, while the gifted kids are being judged on their ability to explain. Maybe the gifted kids wanna learn too. They're all told their whole lives the point of school is to learn, and then they're met with disappointing reality. We expect gifted kids to grow up so fast, and having to explain the material back to the teacher to prove they know it doesn't help. I wish they got to spend a little longer just being kids.
So how long's it gonna take them to break this promise too?
