I've watched this series several times, and i think a lot of what you are saying is fair, but i think you miss the point a bit on Barney. The entire show is a framed story of Ted retelling things that happened decades earlier. The way the show is written, Ted is making it seem like Barney behaves over the top, either to fit his narrative or simply because that's how he remembers it.

One of the reasons it's funny is because a lot of people know "that one guy or girl" who behaves that way, but then when you tell stories about that person you make it even more wild.

Lily does suck though, and I'm surprised she's still friends with anyone

I think they're saying this:

Family meals would comprise of three restaurants worth of people since they're all immortal

Separately, you can never retire since you will never hit retirement age

You know, that's the first thing that caught my attention, and it's actually kind of bothering me. I now want to pronounce it "ootopian" to make it work, but it's just so wrong.

Not going to lie to you, this is exactly what i did :)

It's from God emperor of dune, i think it's the fourth book in the series by publication, but not chronologically.

I guess this might be a spoiler if they eventually make it a movie, but basically, the son of Paul merges himself with a sand worm and becomes effectively immortal. It's both interesting and bizarre.

There's a lot more to it than that but i don't want to ruin the story for anyone

That's interesting, guess i wasn't tracking that closely enough. Thank you!

Ah, wasn't aware, thanks!

I thought it was India and South Africa, not Iran and Saudi Arabia

Someone in the comments claims to have found the school handbook, and it does explicitly say misuse of AI is forbidden

I don't think standing all day like that is necessarily better, as it can cause other health complications. I did a light google search (i know, not the most extensive research) and the results suggest that standing for long periods can cause joint pain and put folks at a higher risk of problems with vericose veins. I understand that cashiers may do other things around the store, but some stand at the register for hours on end and that's not much better than sitting.

But without the caption, how would i know to wait until the end of a 5 second video? Who has that kind of time?
