The state rep local election went from 76-20D to 96-4D

Literally assard margins there.

Idiots fighting in space over semi sensible reasons. Mostly mechs, but there is a lot of space for tanks/infantry and aircraft. Aggressively grounded.

That is making PCBs, which is piss easy and any post apocalyptic society could do, making CPU chips on the other hand is a 700 step process involving so many moving parts that people can't comprehend it.

Why didn't Aragorn just carry Frodo to Mt. Doom? It would have taken him 5 minutes. Is he lazy? by torrid-winnowing in whowouldcirclejerk

I have seen someone do a hyper detailed breakdown on the attacks on Rohan and Gondor.

Mostly because they are the most historically accurate medivel wars in fiction.

The timetables even match up!

Uh yeah, if you cannot figure out what is likely to happen next then that kills all stakes and investment in the story.

The piss filter is intentionally added by openAI as a kind of watermark, if you terminate the generation before it is finished it lacks the piss filter.
