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.

“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).

This is officially the last line of dialogue before the first sex scene (which I don’t think has any dialogue, but which I’ll watch to make sure). There’s still a poll open in Day 38’s shitpost, so be sure to vote there if you want to! Option 3, no lyrics, is currently winning, but Option 1 is very close. Remember that you can vote for multiple however you want to. Whatever gets decided there will be applied to all four sex scenes.

PS: I think he’s actually saying “Oh, Lisa, you’re nice. Oh, yes.” But I just ran with what was in the subtitles because it’s barely audible, and so I can’t say for sure.

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 2: Cover every single line no matter how often it’s repeated. (ex. “I will, I will, I will” gets three separate posts)

Pros:

• You get to see my mental state slowly deteriorate as these lyrics repeat over and over.
• You maximize the number of shitposts.

Cons:

• This is going to take an eternity. For example, the standalone line “I will” is said 21 consecutive times in the first sex scene, meaning three real-world weeks of increasingly deteriorating shitposts. There are four sex scenes total, which will take at least several months.

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.

Ew, gross. Actual psychopath behavior.

The Room is my favorite movie of all time, and I’m not just shitposting. I think people don’t believe me when I say a movie can do this, but it underflows from one of the worst films ever produced to being an absolute masterpiece. It’s so earnest in what it does and it fails so miserably at it that the amount of depth is beyond what I’ve seen even in all-time classic films.

Lisa, of course. She’s beautiful. She looks great in her red dress. I think I’m in love with her. I know she doesn’t like me, because sometimes she’s mean to me. But sometimes, when I’m around her… I feel like wantin’ to kiss her and tell her that I love her. I don’t know; I’m just confused.

Oh, Danny, Danny, DannyBoy.

I use frame advance in VLC by using the ‘E’ key to seek a frame or just pause it whenever. Technically frame advance can hold on the same subtitle indefinitely, so I consider it in-bounds as long as 1) the subtitle pack I downloaded originally has it within that range (or, in the only case when the pack clearly missed a line, the range I create), and 2) the subtitle pack isn’t very obviously flawed (like starting a voice line multiple seconds before it’s actually said, continuing after another character is already speaking, or continuing after a very long silence; I’ve only encountered the first problem so far, and only once). Typically I try to get it as close to the voiceline as possible provided the shot isn’t a blurry mess.

TL;DR: the vibes™

If you specifically are using some other subtitle pack whose timings are really messed up, you should be able to go into the human-readable file and change it.

Hey, sorry for missing yesterday; I’ve been a bit under the weather. Going to post two today to make up for it. (Also, it’s $10.2 million annually).

I will climb the highest of mountains, just to make you a shitpost, I will.

I feel like I’m sitting on an atomic bomb waiting for it to go off.

That son of a bitch told me that I would get it within one day. I gave them upvotes. They’re crazy. I don’t think I will ever get it. They betray me, they didn’t keep their promise, they trick me, and I don’t care anymore.

Technology has slowed down, but there’s also diminishing returns for what you can do with a game’s graphics etc.

• The original Halo ran at 480p on the Xbox. 4K UHD has 27 times the number of pixels as that. The resolution increase from the NES to Halo was about 5.35 times.
• Games nowadays on PCs are often capable of running smoothly into the hundreds of frames per second, but of course for example the difference between 21 and 30 FPS is more noticeable than the one between 231 and 240 FPS. (Looking at you, OoT)
• Render distances are much larger with less obvious compromise on LoD.
• Stuff like ray-tracing is of some graphical benefit but is hugely computationally taxing, and there’s nothing you can do about that. It’s just more diminishing returns.
• Physics engines are much more complex.
• At some point, a limiting factor just becomes art direction and budget. You can have all the fancy techniques you want, but you still need to make detailed textures, animations, etc.
• The amount of polygons starts to hit a ceiling too where the model is basically continuous to the human eye, so adding more polys might only help very subtly.
• Color depth is basically a solved problem now too compared to going from the NES to the Xbox.

You can think of sampling audio. If I have a bit depth of 1, and I upgrade that to 16, it’s going to sound a hell of a lot more like an improvement than if I were to upgrade from 48 to 64.
