Itā€™s a false equivalence thing, which when explained out makes it even more obvious what a crock of crap it is.

They arenā€™t ā€˜falling for itā€™, at least most of them. They ā€˜acceptā€™ it as true, give it support, and spread the lie, not because they believe in it, but because it hurts the people they donā€™t like.

I remember Masquerade. So lovely and mysterious! My mother and I would sit and read it and try to puzzle it out. We had *just* figured out the core mechanism (follow the hidden hareā€™s paws to the letters along the sides) when they announced it had been found. Poop.

There was a CCG one, as I recall, that led to a nice little platinum cube.

Well, I know that Piaggio makes an electric version of it's classic Ape mini-truck as an electric. Apparently quite popular.

It menaces with spikes!

Schoolbuses are idea for converting to electric. Shortish routes with lots of stops, and a few hours to sit and recharge until they're needed again.

I was disappointed by the Thief franchise reboot, around the same time. Not just because it was a blatant console port. It just didnā€™t have the same feel as the old games. The blend of technology and magic.

Yep. And the monorail, and Homer jumping Springfield Gorge, etc. May just be random Simpson-y things, or may have broader meaning within the episode.

I just think that if you call something "Self-Driving No Really The Car Can Totally Drive All By Itself", there are going to be certain expectations.

It's okay. People grow and learn. Think of it as gaining wisdom.

I like the callout on the poster to Homerā€™s instant makeup application invention...

Until proven otherwise, I'm going with Bill Murray playing himself, somehow sucked into the Quantum Realm.

There actually *is* a way to tell which pipe theyā€™re coming up - the top of the pipe will noticably rattle back and forth as they climb.

For the Headcrabs, I submit Ravenholm in Half-life 2.

For jump scares, I give you Thief 2.

Yā€™know, Iā€™ve always been of the assertion that the far-right chuds who complain about various ā€œwokeā€ media, leftists in Hollywood, etc. should just go an make their own competing products.
