I've watched this series several times, and i think a lot of what you are saying is fair, but i think you miss the point a bit on Barney. The entire show is a framed story of Ted retelling things that happened decades earlier. The way the show is written, Ted is making it seem like Barney behaves over the top, either to fit his narrative or simply because that's how he remembers it.

One of the reasons it's funny is because a lot of people know "that one guy or girl" who behaves that way, but then when you tell stories about that person you make it even more wild.

Lily does suck though, and I'm surprised she's still friends with anyone

Yeah the crux of the issue here is whether or not they're actually a relative, and if I'm expecting them.

Show up unexpected at 2am? I'm probably not opening the door for safety reasons. If it's expected company but they're just late, I'll let them in.

Compared to the other Uber wealthy, he at least seems to have some sort of a code of ethics from what i can see, which is obviously limited. He's still in it to make money (obviously), but his actions seem to suggest that he won't go to the extreme of hurting everyone else just for money.

I started liking Mark more when he opened cost plus drugs. It's a pretty decent endeavor to try to reduce pharmaceutical costs for the consumer

I think the joke is that a dominatrix is meant to, well, dominate their client (sexually). Think like with whips and chains, for example. Unfortunately, everything in her house, even the ficus, dominates her. It's a bad first impression and she appears to be unfit for the role.

I feel like the wealthy people you see are the ones who either get excitement from flaunting it or from lying about it (for example, mtv cribs was all fake). There are plenty of stories (yes i know they're just stories) about multi millionaires who drive the same old truck, wear regular blue jeans, and have a nice quiet (albeit larger than average) home.

It's not crazy at all. I just think we see the outliers more frequently than not because they want us to see them.

Comments like these remind me that so many maps are super unfriendly to the color blind, which has to be annoying to so many people

Edit:

Didn't realize this was specifically in 1922, so it looks like it is probably due to a combination of war/control and legal changes.

Austria was apparently split based on which part of the country was controlled by Napoleon, and this lasted for quite awhile, though a few sources cite different lengths of time for the mixed driving laws. I wanted to use a local source here but it was paywalled.

Also, apparently Italy and Spain (and Canada?) changed from left side to right side drive in the 1920s, so this probably reflects that change in Europe.

This is a really weird and unnecessarily aggressive take. I think that the other person is saying is that the communication about the games has been pretty poor, and it really isn't clear what the right move is. Other games make a lot more sense in both continuity and playing order. I'm not sure why that's such a difficult concept to grasp.

For example , FF7 remake isn't actually a remake. It's only the first act of ff7. Rebirth is somehow act 2? I don't understand why. Some people seem to think rebirth is DLC instead of part 2 and a standalone game at that.

I'm personally an og ff7 purist, and I'm rather annoyed that they split this up into multiple games. I'll just wait until all 3 are released and then... admittedly probably not play them unless they go on sale

For me, it was definitely when Kratos is speaking to Mimir to warn Mimir about seeking vengeance. Mimir snaps at him, saying of all people, you're one to talk! And Kratos replies:

“I am an authority on the subject. You would do well to listen."

Honestly, this interaction impacted my perception of people and when they have insight that is counter to their behavior.

I'm not the other commenter, but I'm fairly certain they're making a play on the title of this post, which just ends with "They."

While everything you said is valid, sometimes that question is pure curiosity. "Because i want to" is completely valid, though I'd love to know what the inspiration for that desire was. Did you hear a really cool battle song? Some orchestral piece that sounded great? A friend recommended it? Couldn't find an ocarina? Jamming to some folk metal?

I swear I'm inquisitive!

In the post, someone replied that they get fired if they don't deescalate properly. It sounds like the person you referenced did get fired. So i think that does add up?

He's a genie. The other guy used one of his wishes to wish for the genie to be at the beach with him.
