It's more obviously flawed in that sense. It's all a shock in the movie, and in a way stays that way, until the prequel series makes it obvious and not a secret at all.
It makes Kenobi look like an old man, a liar, when you meet him again after you see the prequels. Why would he deny ever seeing those droids?
Those are the more obvious problems for me when you take these movies in numerical order.

Yes, some reform is definitely needed. For starters, EVERY single cop needs to be wearing a body cam at all times. If it just happens to malfunction during a stop and someone is hurt or killed, then it should be up to the cop to prove their innocence.

The only issue with that is our system is innocent until proven guilty.

I trust them. I'm white and non threatening. I have actually been brought home multiple times while intoxicated by the police. My parents were not so happy at those times. Oh the privalage I ignorantly had...

Oh yeah!
When it comes to luxury items like games and movies, I use Ebay and second hand stores a lot.
Gifts for other people I typically buy new, but I'll still price match to an extent.
Grocery store shopping, I'm mostly a bargain shopper. I'm not picky so store brand is great, but I'll take advantage of sales and either get stuff I don't normally get, or I get more of it or I'm getting something "higher" quality.

It helps me save money so when insurance is due, holidays are around, etc., I can spend money on it but not fret.
I try not to stress about money much, but rather have a decent handle on it and healthy habits.

Any other forms of grease?

I applaud your cooking and was more directing it at people who look down at it and don't get it at all.

I cook a lot of bacon, it used to be like once a week, now maybe once a month.
When it comes to other meats, I usually keep the pan around for their grease. My girlfriend uses it a lot to fry up sandwiches and stuff.
So there's that alternative to get a little extra use out of drippings :)

It just seems to be transition way fast to people not knowing how to cook.
I serve food for a living and you're right. It's real depressing how many people can't cook for themselves, and on top of that, don't know what they consume. They'll even argue what's in something or not in something, out of complete ignorance.
That'd kinda scare me to be that out of touch. Heck, even thinking about farming and everything that goes on in the background for our food, is a scary thought to have to do alone if the world came to it.

Thank you guys for being willing to do stuff, expand your mind and more. It's reassuring not everyone is lazy or uses their time in reliance of others. We can't all be good at everything, but it's always good to try.

Why'd people stop collecting grease? When did this happen?
The looks I get when I mention keeping bacon grease. Forget the money you save, the taste alone is incredible. I don't even filter mine and have never ran into smells or issues like that. A couple pounds of bacon makes a ton of grease, probably close to a few sticks worth of butter.

America's Test Kitchen says that bagged and popped popcorn can beat out homemade if you get a decent brand cause they have more consistent kernels.

As long as it's easy to control, I don't mind it. It can lead to some frustration, but it can also add some depth to levels.
It's when you're spending time just doing nothing for a specific time that gets to me. It starts to feel less like a game.
End of the day, it's never a feature that sells me. I'd rather have different levels than times of the day.
Shenmue is really cool and all, but it gets slow. It's quite immersive, but sometimes I don't want that.

Prime does have a decent streaming service. While I agree that most stuff on there is up for purchase, it's cause it lists almost everything I search for. If I wanna make sure it's part of the subscription, I make sure to browse categories labeled Prime. My girlfriend taught me to pay attention to that.

Otherwise, this:

People act like they've never heard of actually buying these movies and shows they love.

My girlfriend is a streamer and owns some movies, but she seems to understand that purchasing something allows you to own it, streaming services just allow you to view it on their time.
It's especially useful during holidays and stuff when everything is split between services or not available.
I've been buying us sets of dragon ball during quarantine. They have such a cool cover that lines up with the seasons.
