The very existence of this comic points to a sad reality. Is it exaggerated? Probably. But it's a damn cartoon, it's supposed to be.

What was the worst bastardization of a classic book into a movie?
The Hobbit. Probably not the worst movies with not the worst bastardisation (that'd be The Dark Tower for me), but I simply can't wrap my mind around the overbloated monstrosity that the Hobbit TRILOGY is. Like why would anyone do this, it felt like it's in the bag, they got Peter Jackson, they already made LotR to great success, why do we suddenly need wacky wheels with cartoon CG goblins in 48 FPS for some reason... It doesn't even match neither the tone of the book nor the tone of LotR movies.

How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house?
People wear shoes indoors? That sounds utterly barbaric to me lol

Hungary blocks €50bn of EU funding for Ukraine
Such a stupid system. How is Ukraine unsuitable for EU and NATO membership until it passes some reforms and Hungary is a part of EU and NATO while actively sabotaging and hating on both?

I’ll fight anyone who shits on Gen Z
Can confirm. Fight the power, fuck the system and all that jazz. I was told it was my "maximalism of the youth", a phase that would pass, but I only become more and more radical in my views as I mature, so that was a fucking lie.

The ad says "Old converted garage", listed at 550€/month ...
Are my standards through the floor if I find that it looks half-ok?

48 hours without water? Absolutely not. There is a high probability of exiting a cripple or dead, at least for me. Not to mention my medicine.

Cause and effect
The lack toilets in every imaginable place is insultingly ableist and very degrading. It's like people are ashamed we're fucking people and need to piss and shit all the time. And then the cops have the gull to threaten me with fines when I take a leak under a tree in a park. You literally treat dogs better than people.

To be fair most education oriented YouTubers that I've seen completely blow every single one of my schoolteachers out of water.

The Chair™
Most of these hit close to home, except that I'm obsessively punctual, check my messages even when there are no new notifications and my file system is a work of art that I can spend hours organizing. But that goddamn chair though...

Touch controls in a car is definitely up there among the absolute dumbest ideas of the century.

Why is alcohol legal if it's much more harmful than marijuana?
Tradition, mainly. It's so ingrained in the majority of cultures that you can't simply uproot it with a law. Although it should be a more controlled substance, no doubt about that. It's addictive, debilitating, incredibly harmful and it simply destroys more lives than literally any drug known to man.
