Ayyyyy Oversimplified reference!

Still a better reason to fight than whatever bullshit Kyubey (Madoka Magika) was trying to sell

And the commenter is a homunculus from Commorragh

“That’s about it”? Bro, it’s basically the inciting incident for the latter half of the book. The monster was NOT some blood-thirsty demon or whatever when he originally confronted Frankenstein and ELOQUENTLY asked for a wife (like, the ‘narrator’ deliberately points out how shocking it is that he speaks with composure and full sentences and shit); he even explicitly said ‘Look, guy who made me the horror that I am, just make me a girlfriend so I don’t have to be so alone and we will go off and live in the woods somewhere forever, never bothering anyone again.’. But because Franky couldn’t do it, the monster THEN goes on a rampage, killing at least 3 people including Franky’s fiance and best friend, which leads to him trying to hunt down the monster for revenge, yadda yadda. Again, the bride is not an insignificant part of the story, even if she never sees the un-life of day. Some of y’all haven’t picked up this book in decades and it shows

You’re pretty lucky/privileged if this is your first time making that realization 😂

“I can’t imagine what the plot would be, besides making a female Frankenstein’s monster, and due to the above I can’t be bothered to find out why”

You do realize that making a female monster was a major plot point in the book, don’t you? Like, allllllll the way back to Mary Shelley, “the bride of Frankenstein” has been a reoccurring driver of the story even if she never fully came to life like the OG

“You have been weighed. You have been measured. And you have been found wanting.”

Honesty, most times and places throughout all of human history could easily fill these requirements if you look hard enough. My personal choice would be Sengoku-era Japan, but this is just one option out of thousands, potentially millions

So… am I just too American to understand the joke? Because my family watches a LOT of British TV and I swear to God it doesn’t matter what the show is but basically half of all dialogue is either a complaint or an insult (which is just a complaint about someone else if you think about it). Like, it there some meta humor I’m not getting? Or is it more of a TV vs Real Life thing?

Not gonna lie, I didn’t even think AI could be that bad anymore.

Yeah you’re right, I completely missed that even though it’s in the center of the screen

Well, all the dead innocent civilians for one. Then there’s the 99.99% of the listed countries’ populations who manage to remain alive (on both sides) who will receive absolutely nothing from this. Oh, plus all the remaining nations who have already seen prices rise in a world where almost everyone is struggling to afford living anyway. Idk, I think there’s quite a lot of people who don’t benefit from this, probably somewhere around 8.3 billion or so

Why does her sigil say Pizza over and over?

More than a century honestly, that shit goes as far back as the 1800s

That official who tried to stop her is a prime example of a person taking something WAY too seriously. Apparently he had a habit of tackling runners that, in his opinion, didn’t view the race with a certain level of respect; “weirdies” he called them. He was also one of those guys who claimed ‘I don’t make the rules, I just enforce them’ despite literally having a seat in the committee that made the rules

So… we can smoke inside again? Is there any other purpose to balconies?

What show is this?

Sick!

This would work better if they used Fernando Mendoza rather than Sam Darnold imo. Darnold never struck me as the religious type but Mendoza supposedly goes to Mass several times a week. Plus he actually got a rushing TD, just saying
