That's more or less the reaction you're supposed to have.

Remember, the entire thing was basically made as a fuck you to the fans who complained about the original. They basically wanted you to walk away confused and disappointed.

...which might also help explain why the studio is more or less a smoldering ruin now.

WTF? No, EoE was more or less how the anime was originally supposed to end. It only changed because Gainax was running out of money at the time and couldn't animate something like EoE.

There are a lot of videos out there that explain how Eva fucked up the Anime industry (for the good and bad). The reboots are there to make things worse. They really exist to both fuck up the existing continuity, anime culture as a whole, and to sell merchandise.

No, the "reboots" are actually sequels. It's actually been explained that the story is a repeating one with changes every time it repeats. The "reboot" movies are sometime after EoE, when the timeline repeats.

It could be Didysmachus picipes. (A type of Robber Fly)

I'm almost certain that's it. It looked like a scary mother fucker, and I've seen a few those around these parts. I'm so glad that they rarely bite humans and aren't dangerous.

Can't really blame Joe for what's going on, he doesn't know where he is half the time and he obviously isn't the one in charge.. flip-flopping on his own opinions after brief meetings with the rest of his party, BLM, the CDC etc

I will say this, him comparing what's going on with the voting laws in Texas to the Civil War was pretty blatant, if Trump pulled that kind of move you wouldn't hear the end of it.

And on the other hand with Bernie, just look at how well socialism is working in Cuba

Having Medicare for all and higher taxed billionaires and millionaires doesn't mean full on socialism. Shit, America at its economic peak had billionaires paying 91% tax rate. Also, are you saying that every first world country ever except America is failing right now because of single payer health care system? You do know that S.Korea's taxes are barely higher than the U.S.'s right? That's all because they don't allocate most of their funding to their military unlike the U.S.'s dumbass.

As someone who worked for Walmart, its actually a great place to work. Easy work, nice hours, good pay, nice benefits, plenty of people in your age range to meet and get to know, convenience of not having to stop at the store on the way home for toiletries/dinner supplies.

However the issue is the overlords of the corporate ladder that pass down penalties on employees that dont even work in the same building/city/state as them. Even though I was an excellent worker and the bosses at the job loved me, the people higher up in the corporate ladder declared I had to be fired when I had too many sick days. Despite the fact that, A) the timeoff system was just revised and all the days I had saved up were reset to zero. B) On the last day I came in sick ready to work but was forced to go home by my boss. C) They dont accept Doctors Notes.

Good pay, lololololol

As most of you probably know by now, I drive a concrete mixer truck. When I'm at work, I have my phone hooked up to the truck via Bluetooth, and usually listen to Zero Punctuation year videos like if they're podcasts. Well, when I was doing that a few weeks ago, my seat belt was fucking up, so my boss went into my truck to check it out. He was in there for like 10-15 mins trying to get my seat belt to work while Yahtzee was blathering on for the whole time.

So do you think he thinks I'm a weirdo of some sort?

yeah pedos are notorious for their desire for people to NOT post pics of kids online. Super smart argument you got there

I dont care that you have a friend in psych or that you asked them a question. That doesnt prove anything or even mean anything.

Again I didnt even post about your damn psych friend, youre the one that keeps bringing that up like its some kind of certificate of authenticity of quality parenting.

Like I said I dont know you life, maybe youre a stellar fucking dad. But if you post shit here, Im gonna be honest about what I think about it. And if you are too sensitive to handle that then its on you how to resolve that.

Except it's not just me, even other users are seeing what kind of dumbass shit you're posting. So why don't you just keep your useless opinions to yourself, since you're the only one that has these dumbass opinions.

You said one thing here on potd but it led to your Imgur where you called her a weirdo iirc

I could be mistaken but youve definitely posted stuff about her that personally rubbed me the wrong way. I mean you know there are some creeps on this board. By all likelihood you think Im one of them.

And youre the one obsessed with your whole friend who is a psych major thing. Nobody else cares about that. The issue was that you took a creepshot of your sleeping kid and posted it here asking if your little girl was weird for sleeping next to dolls, which is obviously a totally normal thing for a kid to do

You'd really have to be reaching or a pedophile yourself to think that a father taking a cute photo of their kid sleeping is a creepy thing to do. Not my fault your brain is fucked up like that. Also, I asked my Psych friend to make sure my kids would be alright, which is the opposite of the dumbass narrative you're trying to push about my parenting skills. Yet you and your little buddies still talk shit about me asking my Psych major buddy about my kids.

Only thing I said in that topic that seemed to trigger you so much was Please dont take pictures of your daughter sleeping and post them here

I obviously dont know your life. But over the last few years the pics and clips youve posted of your kid have worried me. You routinely use the words weird and weirdo to describe her, or ask if she is weird. Which to me doesnt seem like the best dad mentality.

Like a few years ago you posted some clip of you playing some baseball game and she was kinda imitating what your character was doing and just trying to be involved in what her dad was doing, and you posted saying what a weirdo you thought she was. Maybe I took it the wrong way, maybe youre a cool dad. But Im gonna say what I think and if you cant handle that then the block feature exists for a reason.

Wow, you have alzheimers up the ass. I never said she was a weirdo for imitating baseball, I said she's going to start for the Yankees. Jesus Christ, get some medical help for your fucking alzheimers, man.

Generally. Most IP's that are popular enough to be worth adapting have done enough world-building that it's not that hard to make a story that actually fits into the universe and forms a plausible part of the series. The Mario Bros movie was very much not a good adaptation, and part of that can be blamed on the fact that there's really no actual story to work with in Mario games (especially in 1993), but Mario RPG, Paper Mario, and M&L games have all shown that it's perfectly possible to tell an actual story without reinventing the universe. There's no reason a movie can't do the same.

Studios' repeated failure to do that is not because it's impossible, it's because they'd rather just shoehorn a pre-existing story template into the IP they purchased and hope that brand recognition is enough to carry it to profitability.

Actually, the reason the Mario Bros has such a weird ass story is because of the dumbass directors, not the fact that they had no story to work with:

Like it baffles me that so many video game films barely or sometimes have nothing to do with the source material. What's the point of making a video game film if you're going to change everything about it?

The Resident Evil movies sucked, but you gotta give them credit for mostly staying on topic. Can't say the same about most of other video game movies out there.

The writing is atrocious. The game is trying to be "funny", but the writing is so bad that it just comes off as annoying and cringey.
The game itself was surprisingly pretty fun, the best Ubisoft sandbox in a while. I've heard nothing but bad things about the DLC though, so I'd skip them.

I'm inclined to agree, but at least everyone else had the extra costs of their shenanigans paid for. Presumably, that was an easier option, legally, than prohibiting them from boarding a flight they were following the rules of.

i was trying to give you time to try and Google search stuff to try and prove something to me, but maybe i thought you were smarter.

foxconn doesn't make anything.

they just assemble things. the actual parts in an apple phone are sourced from reputable places. hell, for a time most of them came from Samsung.

that being said, Samsung makes their own parts. which is something i also gave you the benefit of the doubt on, but.

the only difference between the two phone makers quality is that one runs android and the other runs ios. the parts inside them are functionally the same in terms of both performance and quality.

as an aside, the real reason everyone shits on foxconn is how they run their plants. which as i've just shown you, Samsung does the same.

next time i won't make the mistake of thinking you have critical reading skills

Wow, you do know that they're a manufacturing company, right? They do make parts, which is very easy to look up.

They ended up giving the other passengers hotel/meal vouchers and rebooking them for another flight the next morning, sans brats. I'm guessing, given the number of kids they had to deplane (along with their luggage), that disrupted the schedule of flights by enough that they couldn't simply take off once they were finished and had to cancel that day's flight instead.

It says that the brats didn't get meal vouchers or hotels, but got rebooked after agreeing to wear masks.
