Not sure what's the idiom with "fridge" in it.

Technically, there's a bundle that includes the game for $50.

My two favorite malaphors:

  • It's not rocket surgery.
  • We will burn that bridge when we get to it.

But the sale numbers are probably much higher nowadays, so it would be feasible to sell games for cheaper. But why would they? People are gonna buy them anyway. Those who won't will get them on a sale later.

I'll be waiting for the Tinfoil discount.

I honestly don't see this changing any time soon because there are biological incentives behind both stereotypes. And, anecdotally, my gf (40+) will pout if in some context I refer to her as a woman, and be like "noooo, I'm a girl... :(". Semi-jokingly, of course, but only semi.

Stereotypically, women always strive to look as young as possible, so calling one a girl can be seen as a compliment. While men, stereotypically strive to appear mature, hence calling one a boy can be considered an insult.

Right? It will probably mostly impact poor people, so who cares!

Just depends on the location. In some places the climate is projected to become milder.

It will likely not make the planet inhospitable to all people, just some. In fact, a bunch of people will benefit from it, like those living in colder climates (at least for some time).
