    Ugh. Can I just say how much I fucking HATE how every single fucking product on the market today is a cheap, broken, barely functional piece of shit.

    I swear to God the number of times I have to FIX something BRAND NEW that I JUST PAID FOR is absolutely ridiculous.

    I knew I should’ve been an engineer, how easy must it be to sit around and make shit that doesn’t work?

    Fucking despicable. Do better or die, manufacturers.

    I’d say “not quite.”

    (Slight spoilers ahead)

    The A plot involves NFTs which was pretty lame.

    But the B plot involved Bender returning to Mexico and reconnecting with his roots, which wasn’t bad, mainly because it didn’t depend on pop culture references. Danny Trejo was pretty good as a guest star.

    (Spoiler end)

    I think the reason the pop culture references seem so tired now is because our lives are filled with people making fun of pop culture on social media/the internet. All the NFT jokes have been made already, like a year ago. The writers need to stick to original, engaging plots that don’t rely on criticizing pop culture or rehashing old plotlines.

    “What I do sympathize with and would like to see reduced in harm is the consumerist culture that pressures people with less means into feeling like they have to have such things for fulfillment.”

    We’re saying the same exact thing. You just went on a long preachy monologue first to try to make yourself seem smarter/superior to others, while simultaneously being denigrative towards the people you’re addressing, which is the exact thing you’re preaching about not doing. Furthermore, you didn’t even reply to the right person, I’m not the one who chose to disagree with someone only to then say the exact thing they just said.

    Everyone in this thread is just repeating the same thing I said yet somehow I’m the asshole. Get a grip, people.

    “If you meant to say something else”

    I did say something else. I don’t know what comment you think you read.

    “That’s not what you said originally” Yes it is.

    “We disagree with your original point/agree with your new point”

    It’s the same point, and you clearly agree with it so what are you trying to accomplish here?

    I didn’t say not to buy quality shoes, but those are $100 max, if someone spends more on a logo, they’re a chump.

    When you’re older than 15, your reading comprehension will improve and you’ll be better able to understand what grownups mean with their words.
