& @OtherMichael - I also don’t watch it, I don’t really like awkward humour so much (Larry David gets a pass!), does this mean I’m not marriage material?

No, but did your sourdough mother ‘escape its cage’ overnight and now ya need to get a chisel for your counters?

Having watched some episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm (my spouse has seen them all and doesn’t understand why I’m meh about the show), don’t I get where you’re coming from? But doesn’t Arrested feel kind of different from Curb? Like Curb is closer to reality and the messed up crap that real humans do, so more uncomfortable in my opinion?

Because it’s a deeply insightful comment on the nature of adulthood or on the way in which our perceptions of people (especially in new relationships) tend to be informed by what we want to see rather than what is actually there?
God that show punches hard, eh?

I wonder if even an entire universe could possibly be enough unless it was stocked to the gills with people who had much less than them?
I thought for a while that simulation theory might bare fruit for this idea but I’ve come to realise that there needs to be somebody, or better, many somebodys under their heel for it to feel real to them… they’re already suffocating themselves with their own greed, isn’t the end game the annihilation of even every other component of their personalities in favour of leaving only that one trait?
Eat the rich? Why follow their example? I’d much rather that they had fairness imposed upon them, eh?

What’s the most tactful way to tell someone you want to port their project into a specific OS’s port management framework due to the fact that their “universal” install script wreaks havoc on the framework?

Is that ever-squeezing, funding-sucking creature called a “python,” or a “creepy, long-term neoliberal agenda”?
