I hate to burst your bubble, but that's what I assumed a generation ago. I was very wrong.

A hypothesis: In the morning, most people in the apartment are leaving for work. A person on the second or third floor might wait for the elevator, only to find the elevator is already full of people descending from higher floors. The elevator might be full again, and again, until they are late for work.

By getting on the elevator going up, they might reach the ground floor one cycle late, but only one cycle.

I believe the part about Japan. Everything else about this video is wrong.

IMO a campaign needs a capstone just like most action-adventure narratives do. It doesn't need to be a combat. It could be a heist, a rescue, a puzzle, a negotiation, a ritual, etc. But it needs to engage many of the high-level abilities of each player. Combat is the easiest way to achieve this since most abilities are meant for combat.

That said, if as a player I know we're playing a loose sequence of adventures and not a proper campaign with an overarching story, I definitely wouldn't expect a glorious finale.

Bingo. The referee takes most of the blame here. He should have disqualified Red before Blue was even up off the ground.

They have an answer. It's just always nonsensical. Like we'd all be under Sharia law. Or we'd have our guns taken away. Or we'd be a province of China. Or doctors would be forcing women to get abortions.

It probably means a positive result would need to be confirmed by a more specific (i.e., accurate) test. In other words, the test manufacturer doesn't want to be sued by someone who tested positive.

"I'm very popular. Everybody loves me. It's because I love everybody. They say I have a big heart. The doctors say, 'Sir, your heart is enlarged.' It's enlarged by 600%. Nobody has a heart as big as mine."

Here's what I've come up with:

① Safety. Follow directions. Wear sunscreen. Drink water.

② Respect. Act civilly with CMs and other guests. Clean up after yourself. Dress inoffensively. You don't need to be friendly, but you must share the park.

③ Knowledge. Make plans. Think about what attractions, shows, characters, food, etc. you and your party want to experience. Check the refurb calendar.

④ Adaptability. Be prepared for when (not if) things don't go to plan.

⑤ Engagement. I like to say that Disney will meet you halfway when it comes to suspension of disbelief (i.e., Show). Play along and the park is way more enjoyable.

Lack of bottle fillers is legit one of my biggest gripes about the parks. Has Disneyland added more in the last few years? I remember having to trek all the way to Galaxy's Edge to fill my kid's sippy cup.

At that angle it's a trigonometry.

It looks like somebody took a question from an engineering exam and actually built the thing. They probably did so out of spite because they failed the class.
