Idk I guess I just assumed the main character would be the more likeable character and it was clearly between leonard or Sheldon.

I dunno. Turk is more likable than JD.
Niles is more likable than Fraiser.
Coach was more likable than Sam

Most of it has been covered but I'll also add that Abed was a way for the show to go meta which wasn't a thing with Sheldon.

I think the hate for Sheldon on the internet is overblown though. The real answer to the topic was that Big Bang Theory was the most popular sitcom of its time and shows like it aren't popular on internet boards like this. Community in comparison was a cult hit.

That's true too

I bet if Community was popular, people would hate on it more just to be contrarian.

Like Fallout 4 and MCU movies. They get a ton of undeserved hate just because they do so well.

This is maybe the most hilariously wrong opinion I've ever seen you give.
A) Dan Harmon is a huge & vocal nerd.
B) Community had entire episodes centered on 'nerd topics' like the gang getting together to play D&D, making jokes like Chang cosplaying as a Drow that only hardcore nerds would get. (Which is why idiots had it pulled from streaming)
C) Or the entire episode that is a GI Joe cartoon that Jeff is hallucinating.
D) Or the entire episode that revolves around the group playing a videogame to help Pierce get his inheritance.
E) Those types of theme episodes go so far down the 'nerd' rabbit hole whereas TBBT would have...

The only one of those that doesn't seem skin deep is the Drow.

I mean the video game episode (both the one you're talking about and the Prinicpal playing VR one) was super duper cringe because they clearly weren't gamers and a lot of the shit was just "lol video games."

I legit can't believe you're holding that up as an example, I'd use it as example of literally the opposite point.

Where was the nods to Loom or conversations about how cool the dialogue system of Fallout 1 was or anything that implies actually playing games? It was just "lol pixels. lol dying and coming back. lol video games lol!"

I half expected them to start talking about Giant Chickens and the secret cow level. The script and the performance were clearly people who had no idea WTF video games were like on any personal level/experience. Especially Gus Fring who played it like it was a power rangers episode.

Not your wavelength at all here.

A real-life Indiana Jones believes he may have found the secret location of the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenantunder a house in Staffordshire.

Historian and anthropologist David Adkins is convinced that priceless treasures, which were taken from Jerusalem in 1307, were stashed beneath Sinai Park House in Burton-on-Trent.

He claims to have uncovered links between the property and the Knights Templar who concealed the mythical Ark and Grail centuries ago.

David is now hoping to search the labyrinth of tunnels beneath the 14th century house to prove the Holy Grail was hidden there.

Ive been researching it for 34 years, so Ive really got a complete history of the place and looked into archives that no one had touched before, said the 50-year-old.

There are so many pointers that when Knights Templar left La Rochelle in 1307 we know they had a treasure. There are theories about Oak Island in Nova Scotia and Roslyn Chapel in Scotland but it has never been found.

Sinai House is the most obvious place once you get inside the mind of a medieval Templar, he says. The name Sinai really shouts at you from the pages of history because you have got no other ancient house with that name.

The two key points for Adkins is the labyrinth of natural tunnels and caves and the timing of when Burton Abbey monks took possession of that houseat the same time as the Templars were trying to conceal that hoard.

A geologist once told me that there were caverns as big as Westminster Abbey beneath the house, he told the Express.

In 1880, a dig took place in the Sinai House tunnels and archaeologists reached half-a-mile underground before being forced back by fumes. The cellars stone archway has remained bricked up since.

We know there is really strong evidence they brought manuscripts and gold from the Temple of Solomon in 1307. I think they adapted the tunnels to conceal whatever they brought from Jerusalem.

David said the family living in Sinai House at the time left in the early 1300s, and Burton Abbey then took over the property, which was hidden by Needham Forest atop a hill that drops into the Trent Valley.

Kate Murphy, the current owner has now given David permission to search the vast caverns under her home in a bid to solve the mystery. The researcher, who previously made headlines when he tracked down a 10,000-year-old skull known as Greta, wants to start his search with a geophysical scan.

Murphy, 56, bought the house in 1994 for 50,000. It is nationally designated as a Grade II historical building which means it is of special interest warranting every effort to preserve it.

Its a hugely important site and I first saw it with my late husband David in 1990 because we liked timber framed houses.

Im totally wedded to the idea that there is something there, she told SWNS. I think the theory is very good, well researched and Im very impressed by Davids work.

Im very excited about it and its not cynicism about the story that I think it is unlikely something will be found that is because of the inaccessibility of the tunnels.

There is plenty more evidence in the house like the wall paintings of the tabernacle that there is something going on.

A new partnership with police in Colorado is putting smiles on the faces of motorists who might not have the money to fix a broken part on their vehicle.

An Advance Auto Parts store has gifted the Denver Police Department with 100 gift cards worth $25 each to hand out to drivers who are normally pulled over by cops and given a warning or ticket to pay a fine.

Now, when they pull over a motorist for, say, a bad headlight or a defective taillight, theyll have the option to give a $25 gift card to help the motorist get it fixedand get them back on the road and stay safe, a representative of Advance Auto Parts explained.

Denver Police Chief Paul Pazen says officers have already issued the cards, and are enjoying the smiles it puts on drivers faces.

Advance Auto Parts donation not only helps us get greater compliance with the motoring public, but it also helps us build and strengthen relationships with our community.

Can you upgrade Aeons later on? More HP, stronger spells?

Their stats increase along with Yunas, buff her up and they get stronger

Also yes later you can buff them up and teach them abilities/spells using items and spheres although admittedly with a couple of small exceptions there isn't a great reason too since leveling Yuna is quicker and less resource intensive.

TroutPaste posted...

So... it's pretty easy to level up. If three characters do the battle, three get XP. If four are in, four get XP. That's obvious... but is it dividing or doling out equal amounts?

Meaning... let's say there's 1200 total. Are three characters going to get 400 and four characters going to get 300? (random numbers but for the example). Or do they all get the same amount of XP, even if five or six characters were in the fray

They all get 1200

If you have the patience havig every character do something in a fight, even defending is worth it

If you think all the facts surrounding COVID are "obvious truths" then you have the memory of a goldfish. The "experts" gave completely, entirely, dangerously wrong advice early on.

Not really

Wear a mask, good hygiene, socially distance , stop travelling was universal good advice

You also moved the goalposts here twice

1. "People always accept facts, they just decide things that aren't true are facts " turned to "Well maybe some 'expert got something wrong'

And then 2. "Some expert got something wrong " was never true of the basic fact denial that anti- vaxxers are nearly all the new hospitalizations. You just ranted incoherently about how Twitter factchecking right wing loons makes you sad

your original point even you have forgotten was:

Mr Hangman posted...

the claims of its effectiveness are true, then once 56.3% of the population have all taken it and it becomes clear that it does work, that would of course persuade the majority of the obstinate people who didn't buy in earlier.

That once the data becomes clear, people change their minds

now you're literally arguing against yourself

"People don't change their minds they'll just decide false things are facts and make stupid excuses like claiming an expert might be wrong about something so other unrelated facts arent true"

Which was my point just reworded badly

Ask @DarkRoast how much facts do to change the mind of the ignorant

No one of a certain group listens to facts and changes their mind. How many Trumpers stopped claiming there was widespread election fraud when literally every source pointed out the fact there was not?

It's not "the option to die" that makes something unenforceable, it's a willingness to fight from people with the means to do so. If you force something on people's children that they believe is harmful to them and cannot be persuaded otherwise, they will react violently. And if it's 43.7% of the population, if they don't win that fight, they'll certainly do way, way more damage than failing to enact that policy at that time would have.

You carry on with this ignorant certainty that you know for sure what the objective facts are, and in the same breath whine about people too stubborn to be persuaded that they're wrong.

"how do you know anything is objectively true!!!!" is fine for a high school philosophy class

But in day by day reality there are obvious truths so blatant and demonstrable that we call them facts

If you grab a gun, point it at your own head and pull the trigger you'll likely die or else severely hurt yourself . Thats a fact

Nearly all new covid hospitalizations are from ANTI vaxxers

thats a fact

The new variants are coming from anti vax hotspots

thats a fact

ignoring facts and going "How do you know the world isnt just a squirrels dream! You're only trusting what the chemicals in your mind tell you!" is nonsense insanity

This is ridiculous and childish. You always have the option, it's about whether you're willing to suffer the consequences. People don't like paying taxes and would like to get out of it, but only a small minority think there shouldn't be any at all. They're not going to jail or to die over it. But if they are, as you say, absolutely convinced that you are harming their children, that's different. That will get people fighting to the death.

Also not true. People do care about reality and facts, but don't agree with you on how to decide what is factual. If the facts are what the CDC and WHO says is factual, then it wasn't long ago that it was a "fact" that COVID wasn't airborne and a "fact" that masks don't work. In October, it was Democrats who were saying you were insane to think the vaccine would be safe just because the CDC said so. Institutional trust is rock bottom, and justifiably so. But if your "clinical trial" is half the population and people have some time to see it working, they'll come around eventually.

Even blaming the COVID variants on anti-vaxxers is wrong. If you had mandatory vaccinations for every single American and it actually worked and they all got it, guess what, America is ~4.25% of the world population, and vaccination rates in almost all the rest of the world are a lot lower than in the US.

This post is utterly insane.

"You can't enforce things because people always have the option to die. Therefore it's not enforced."
"People don't ignore facts. They just decide facts are wrong and make up their own alternative facts that aren't true!"

This is incoherant instantly inaccurate self-defeating rambling.

A guy who looks at the data about Anti-vaxxers getting sick from Covid at enormous rates and "don't agree to decide that it's factual" while continuing to claim vaccines are a cash cow bioweapon and covid doesn't exist are flat out ignoring facts. That's what ignoring facts is

Your daughter after graduating M.I.T created a ridiclously advanced full feedback VR gameset called E.B.T.L "Even Better Than Life." which is more than 17 times as addictive as Crystal Meth.

The game creates a virtual reality based on your own fantasies and stimulates the pleasure center of your brain so you're near permanently in an euphoric state as all your fantasies are fulfillled and it is barely distinguishable from real life... at least while you're playing it.

People who start the game struggle to stop playing it and withdrawal symptons once returning to reality are immeasurably severe. Starving to death while playing the game is common, suicide, insanity, mood swings, violence, crime after doctors/carers/parents take the game away from addicts is common.

It turns people into drooling zombies who can't do anything but keep playing the game 24/7 and need someone on the outside to keep them alive.

The unparralled delusional states of hysteric bliss is causing hundreds of millions of people all over the world to die or go insane or ruin their lives in the biggest addiction epidemic in human history that is only growing each passing hour.

Several countries and provinces have tried to ban the game and make similar technology illegal but it's too late. You can't make it not exist after it has already spread all over the world and even more dangerous less effective bootlegs are being reverse engineered the world over every day.

The success of the E.B.T.L has made your daughter a billionaire and while she has distanced herself from you due to her new isolated lifestyle living with her supermodel wife in her Maldives mansion to get away from the public disdain and detractors who despise her, she has just causally sent one of her goons to give you 14 million dollars. Since you are a parent and all, you raised her.

She's also at every turn advised you to never play E.B.T.L. She's fully aware of how addictive and dangerous it is.



Would you be proud of your daughter?
Would you take the money?
or would you refuse it knowing where it has come from?

Would you try playing the game?

These kinds of scenarios are contrived to the point of meaninglessness. If "43.7% of the adult population absolutely believes, and cannot be persuaded otherwise, that this drug is harmful" then whether it's ethical doesn't even come into question. It's not even feasible to enforce at those numbers.

I think it would be quite easy to enforce. I mean I suspect that's roughly how many people would not pay any taxes had they the option.

But also that's not what I asked. This is about if it would be ethical.

But if the claims of its effectiveness are true, then once 56.3% of the population have all taken it and it becomes clear that it does work, that would of course persuade the majority of the obstinate people who didn't buy in earlier.

LOL No it wouldn't

People don't give a shit about reality and facts. Especially the right wing and the religious. Their minds would not be changed by facts.

43.7% of the adult population absolutely believes, and cannot be persuaded otherwise, that this drug is harmful.

The drug is cheap and easy to produce. All clinlical testing has shown 99.982% effectiveness and no side effects beyond the most mild. It's only effective on children however. It's useless when used on teens or adults.



Is it ethical to make vaccination with this drug mandatory for all children??

We looked for it on streaming sites but it's not up. However if you look for Killers of the Flower Moon on streaming services you find Hitler documetaries.

Which got me talking about Downfall which is a great movie (although not a documetary) and Hitler's demise in the bunker. And that's when she piped up whining that Hitler isn't too bad and we need to move on to other people.
