Yeah, that made me chuckle. Reddit is really trying to make sure I move on completely.

Do you think that dating is hard sometimes...?

I would never recommend putting yourself at risk, but ghosting the person after lying that you'd like to see them again is just a dick move.

What are your top 5 movies of all time?
Young Frankenstein
The Princess Bride
Blazing Saddles
The Matrix
The Shawshank Redemption
It's a toss-up on a couple of those. The Blues Brothers could easily make the list, as could Pulp Fiction, Terminator 2, Alien, Interstellar, and I'm sure there are many others. I will abandon what I'm doing to watch any one of these, if they come on, probably 90% of the time.

Snorlax. He's just so relatable.

Saw this question over in r/Reddit: “If you could get one more season of a TV show, what show would it be?” | What show(s) would you choose?

The question really needs to include "other than Firefly" to get other answers. Although, it's much less common than it used to be... I'm getting old.

What is your earliest memory?
Climbing onto the counter (at 2 or 3 years old) to get a Flintstone's vitamin, because I liked the way they taste. Plot twist: what I actually ate was one of our dog's epilepsy pills.

What is everyone getting this Steam sale?

That's called a "vacation." Unfortunately, those generally come with other activities...

What was the main reason you left Reddit?
Sync going away -- and now coming here, yay! If they're giving their users the finger, and there's a reasonable alternative, why would I stay? I was mainly there for the communities related to my interests (their size, not their mere existence), and those are present here and elsewhere in a growing capacity.
I did like AskReddit, though, and I'm not sure if Lemmy will ever get anything like that...

The Titanic hungers. It is insatiable.

Do you need to vent about something?
Reply in thread
I'm sorry you have to deal with that. I hate dealing with people enough as a man. I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to deal with all the bullshit you are stuck with, having your opinions and experiences dismissed, etc. I hope things improve for you (and all women), but it looks like it'll get worse before it (hopefully) gets better.

What was the biggest culture shock you ever experienced?
Reply in thread
Oh man, this is relatable.
If I'm visiting my parents, my mom insists on "visiting" -- that is, either sitting and talking endlessly, playing boardgames, watching a movie together, or going out to do something. She has complained about us being unsociable for sitting and reading for an hour or two after spending the whole day doing things she wants.
My in-laws, on the other hand... don't. There is absolutely no pressure to do anything. They are just happy to have us there, regardless of what we choose to do (or not do). Speaking from 13 years of experience with them: it's awesome.

What made you pick the Lemmy server you are on?
I'm on lemmy.ml because my application was ignored (or not accepted, I don't know) by the smaller instances I've applied to.

Redditors brigading against Lemmy
Reply in thread
It took seeing a "dummies guide to the fediverse" before I understood how Lemmy works. I gave up and looked for another option before that, and I'm relatively tech savvy. Or at least I was 10 years ago...

If You Were Asked to Recommend Just One Game, What Would It Be?
That's a surprisingly difficult question. Everyone has different interests, so it's hard to make a catch-all recommendation.
With that being said, I'll go with Chrono Trigger. It's a true classic with interesting characters, a solid enough story (that doesn't outstay its welcome), easily approachable gameplay, and an amazing soundtrack. It easily ranks among my favorite games of all time.
