You and OP should keep in mind for all of our sakes that France is a nuclear-armed state.

Luigi did the unambiguously correct thing.

I genuinely never noticed until now how much Juliette Danielle is trying not to laugh in this scene, and in fact right after this her body starts jolting in a way that you can tell she's laughing inaudibly.

Lmfao, no clue why you're being downvoted so much. It's absolutely true that the camel-case here looks like a clusterfuck, even when it's easily explained.

You recognize that Mastodon, the software, is developed by a non-profit called Mastodon gGmbH?

"Apple's new estate planning app" was one of the ones I had planned for this awful contingency.

Option 3 won: skip the lyrics. It won by four points (accounting for both upvotes and downvotes).

The slideshow says the group’s “targeting methodologies” would include creating fake Wikipedia user accounts to try to trick editors into identifying themselves by sharing personal information or clicking on malicious tracking links that can identify people who click on them. It is unclear whether this has begun.

What a bunch of complete dipshits. That being said, there are ways to request yourself to be allowed to use a VPN when editing if these fascist threats intimidate you.

(Adjusting for inflation in the US, $550 in 2014 would be $730 today. Thus, approximately the 5070 Ti price.)

Option 3: Cover no lyrics whatsoever. (ex. "I will, I will, I will" gets zero posts.)

Pros:

  • This is technically the correct interpretation, as I started this challenge saying "every line of dialogue"; lyrics aren't dialogue.
  • No NSFW screenshots, so viewable in public.
  • The lyrics are probably among the least funny parts of this movie.

Cons:

  • You miss out on all of the lyrics and screenshots no matter how funny they are. There are four of these in the movie, so that's at least a few months' worth of content and 10+ minutes of the film.
  • You potentially cheapen the challenge and make it feel less-than-whole, even if it's technically, pedantically correct.

Option 1: Cover all unqiue lyrics one time each and skip repeated lyrics. (ex.: "I will, I will, I will" gets condensed to one post.)

Pros:

  • This is the only reasonable compromise between two extremes.
  • This means that you still get to "experience" every lyric without them wearing thin.
  • You give me a modest challenge.

Cons:

  • As a compromise, this means that people who don't want the lyrics and sex scenes still have to experience them, and the purists who want every single line miss out.

Okay, so we officially have our first sex scene coming up, and that means music. I'm holding a three-way poll to see how people want me to tackle this. However this poll shakes out is how I'll be handling all four of the sex scenes.

The first option (Option 1) is that I cover all unique lyrics one time and skip repeated lyrics. The second option (Option 2) is that I cover every single line spoken no matter how often it's repeated (the most extreme example of this is going to show up in the second sex scene). However, each title is unique. The third option (Option 3) is that song lyrics don't count as dialogue (the mission statement of this series is technically to sequentially exhaust every single line of "dialogue").

In order to vote, there will be three comments below with each option, what they mean, and some pros and cons for each. You don't have to vote on just one; instead, upvote the one(s) you like and downvote the one(s) you dislike.
