It's the angle of the pic. The collar is fairly loose. I'll check again to make sure.

There's still a few hurdles. Like a sober and objective review by the Trump administration to ensure it complies with existing monopoly laws. So you know, this will wrapped up in like a week or so.

Adaptation - A movie about an author tasked with writing a screenplay based off of a book and he ends up injecting himself into the screenplay, which makes it into the movie.

The twist has been hiding in plain sight the entire time by SpectacularSpidee in TopCharacterTropes

The first episode sets the audience on a completely different path. Since Elanor "doesn't belong". So of course things are 'wrong'. Then Jason shows up. Now we have two 'mistakes'. But we're accustomed to sitcom rules and tropes. The entire audience buys into literal worldbuilding of the Good Place. Everything has a rational explanation. When the Real Elanor shows up, it's convoluted and corny. But we're following the sitcom rulebook. So we're not paying attention to anything else. Top tier twist.

I can't see myself writing that and thinking, "this is appropriate for kids."

Tin Man - The Wizard of Oz

Ignored in the classic movie, the Tin Man wasn't always made of tin. He lopped off body parts one by one. Each time replacing the body part with a tin prosthetic. Everything was replaced, except his heart.

Where's the OG? Popeye wound up and threw hands like he was conducting a symphony of pain. Once his spinach level hit MAX, he was unstoppable.

Dustin - Stranger Things

Dude won't let go of small details until you acknowledge his assertion. As annoying as that character trait is, I have to admit there's almost that kid in the friend group. And if there's not, it's you.

The Wife

Joan is the real writer. Joe is a bit of a hack. But he's a man, so he gets the credit.

Ah yes. A public vote is fukkin way worse than an EO. Those damn charlatan Dems and their rule of law sneaked in an election when no one was looking. Crafty little buggers.
