As a One Piece myself, I agree.

I know many people loved Casino Royale, but from that movie onward they shifted to be too serious and no longer fun, action movies. The set pieces are great, but I stopped enjoying myself watching Bond movies because from the Craig era they all took themselves way too seriously. I think they just saw how well the Bourne series was performing, and like they’ve always done, switched gears to copy whatever’s popular. But by doing so got rid of the main reason why I enjoyed the series in the first place.

As someone who can speak Korean, Hangul is much better but it also does not perfectly reflect the way it’s pronounced unfortunately. On the surface it appears so at first, but because there are numerous sound change rules most things you read will be pronounced slightly differently than they’re written in real usage. Still though it’s better than what English does.

You’d probably have them only stop by when you’re out, and you’d be out of the house most of the day anyway. You’d just be alone. But imagine there always being snacks and drinks, and you can eat any food just by ordering it, and being able to invite people over whenever you want without worrying about them making a mess. It’d be a fine situation even for introverts.

Who do?

I watched the original before the sequel just so I could follow the story after hearing so many people recommend the sequel. My thoughts on the original are it has an awesome vibe and cool music, but the story didn’t capture me because I didn’t know what characters I should be rooting for. Add that to the overall depressive nature of the directing, and it bored me.

The sequel took all of what I thought was cool about the original - that unique vibe and music and art - and put it into a fresh story, with clearer characters that evolve throughout the story, a plot with heaps of important characters that makes you think about something besides only “Is the main character a replicant?” Plenty of small characters that are interesting and essential to the plot, and not throwaways. The original felt like it set up the entire fabric of the sequel, but man does the sequel create a beautiful final product.

You definitely need a straw for a Slurpee or Icee because otherwise you can’t go KhHHHhHhhHHhhuhHh with the straw against the lid up and down making that horrible sound as you try to drink the bottom and the top flavor consecutively. Can’t do that without a straw.

Believe it or not, straight to hell.

One time I tried to tell this joke to a friend, but he immediately blurted out “Your mom!” Can’t complain because I guess I set myself up for that.
