Optimized betting and strategy is boring , I just want to see if I know more answers than these nerds. Similarly, I think runaway games are fine - as a viewer, I’m not getting any money

“Warm” was the adjective that came to mind for me also, in imagining the difference between McKellen’s Gandalf and what Lee’s Gandalf might have been.

“the term “nepo baby” has never been more popular - Possibly because it’s a dumb term that didn’t exist 3 weeks ago?
