no worries...no offense taken, in any case...

I’m a little on the fence about how seriously I take the troll thing, if I’m honest...on the one hand on an individual basis most of them appear performatively stupid in the sense that I think it’d be harder to keep up if it weren’t an act because at least then every so often they’d say something halfway smart based…

I’d noticed people seemed to be giving that a shot but I find it a pain to navigate, personally speaking...

there are several for me...but although it’s harder to work into conversation, as of just recently I think one them has to be...

“where is the progress?” really seemed like the absolute limit...

on a related note...have you seen this...?

I guess the thing I thought underlay the way Michael laid out his “Good Place” was that it needed to (in theory) represent something that the people inhabiting it would find convincing as paradise...

not sure from where you pulled the assumption that I’m trying...

oh, I don’t know about that...

de nada...& again, sorry for your trouble...

the comments were always what drew me to these sites ultimately, even when I steadfastly avoided posting anything myself...& I’ve mourned the decline in that department over the years but you & a few others who persist nevertheless are a big part of why I haven’t long since ditched the whole thing in much the manner…

shame this dude didn’t get sent to the same place...

forget if I mentioned this lately but (as someone prone to unfashionably long posts if I’m not careful) I just wanted to say I always appreciate reading yours...not just the long ones but for the obvious time & thought they represent...

it’s basically Chekov’s mirrorball...

I’d argue for another reading but it may merely be wishful thinking on my part...

in & of itself the only possible answer under the circumstances...

as far as Michael goes I think how good/evil he is is ultimately going to turn in how many shells there are in this game...or layers to the onion...or dots on the Jeremy Bearimy....or whatever...

not claiming I could call it either way but I prefer to think the boxing gloves was another example of Janet exhibiting very human signs of being under an unbearable amount strain...even by her inhumanly long-suffering standards...

I think what I found most endearing about that was that for all of the fanfare its reception was uniformly of the underwhelmed variety...& given that they went with 300k rather than a bigger number when Sharon asks how much all this stuff cost it seems plausible that he might have blown most if not all of his…

I think I know this tune...don’t these guys hum it on their way to work...?
