She said her homeowner's insurance won't cover anything pest-related because they deem it preventable.

So the real monster was the insurance company. What a twist!

Thought it would be funnier if we added Leia

The original Jurassic Park. Crazy to think that movie came out in 1993, over 32 years ago.

Some of my favorites:

• GLaDOS from Portal 1+2: Ellen McClain did such a fantastic job balancing a monotonous robotic tone with human emotions and adding subtle glitches to show not everything was 100% alright. She defined what a female robot voice should sound like for that decade. I saw that Stephen Merchant was mentioned and while his performance was good and Wheatley's character was hilarious, I think McLain's performance as GLaDOS was more original and memorable.
• Narrator from The Stanley Parable: Kevan Brighting was arguably the protagonist of the game and the player was the annoying mob to him. As the only chacter with dialogue in the entire walking sim game, he had to carry almost the entire game's story, personality, and charm all through his voice. And it's honestly so fun how disappointed, annoyed, and exasperated he gets when the player refuses to listen.
• The Joker from Batman Arkham Asylum: This one is cheating cause Mark Hamill has played The Joker in almost every modern animated medium available. Still, there's a reason his version is so iconic. It's just so bittersweet that he refuses to ever voice The Joker again since Kevin Conroy, the VA for his Batman passed away.

Edit: After reviewing my list, it seems like I like offscreen narrators who insult the player. How funny

In the US, the cops are the murderers

• When I'm in command, every mission is a suicide mission.

This article does a pretty good job of explaining the history of black superheroes with electrical powers.

To summarize, the popularity of Black Lightning along with copyright issues lead to the creation of a few copycat heroes (ex: Black Vulcan in Super Friends, Juice from Justice League Unlimited). There's also the possibility of electricity being a versatile power and the popularity of Storm from X-men and Static.

Someone in the comments section also noted that it could also be an artistic choice since the colors of electricity would contrast better with black characters than lighter skin characters. That seems like a stretch to me but that is another theory.

And this is supposed to be better than Obama's Iran deal, right?

The GTA series might be a good example. All of the protagonists of the games commit exceedingly worse crimes as the game progresses but they're made to be sympathetic since they just want success in a world with not much other opportunities.

Games with karma systems may work as well if the bad option isn't overtly evil. I'm thinking games like Dishonored, Fable 3, Undertale, or any Bethesda game.

Anti-hero protagonists like Kratos from God of War, Arthur Morgan from Red Dead 2, and V from Cyberpunk could also somewhat fit the bill.

Edit: just watched an Outside Xbox video that summarizes a few games with just this premise.

In 2022, a pro-democracy protester demonstrating on the pavement was dragged into China’s consulate in Manchester before being beaten up in a “barbaric” attack.

Did you not read the article? It's already happened at least once. Even if this attack wasn't from Chinese officials, pro-democracy protesters still face danger and harassment.

The accent isn't heavy at all. Surprisingly not very racist, or at least, not done well at all.

I'm more concerned about his delusional rambling in which he thinks he alone prevented a war between India and Pakistan.

Thanks for preserving what will surely go down as one of the rap lyrics of all time

Surely you can't be serious

Looks to be real

That didn't really explain anything

Everytime I had a problem, I'd throw a molotov cocktail and boom, I had a different problem

Let's be real. We're all NPCs so if any of the men are from something with action, we'll probably end up dead. My pick would be Bob Ross, Mr. Rogers, and Steve Irwin. Super calming and chill

Protagonist has got to be Bayonetta (though it's based only on the first game). Her character growth in the first game was so good, even if the plot was a little convoluted. Never finished the second one since I didn't like playing on the Switch and never played the third one. Hope her character is still good though.

Honorable mentions are Kassandra from Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite, and Stelle from Honkai Star Rail (though this one is mostly for the absolutely ridiculous dialogue options we get to choose).

Favorite female antagonist is hands down GLaDOS. Such a fun, sarcastic, and likeable villain.

"The ending isn’t any more important than any of the moments leading to it" from To the Moon.

Haven't played that game in over a decade but I still remember it being such a great emotional roller-coaster.

It's $2 on steam right now and has such a great story and soundtrack for that price. It's only about 4-6 hours but the memory of the story will last for much longer.
