Cutting the palm to spill blood. Typically followed by a huge battle scene where a gash in your palm isn't going to affect your sword play/battle prowess

This comment made me realize how similar in feeling 4ch was back in the day to the whole GME/wallstreetbets era. The whole frantic one upmanship was pretty nostalgic haha

People who think there's some huge conspiracy everywhere have never worked for a narcissist executive. It feels like an extension of "they're rich and powerful means they have to be cunning", no they clearly get caught up in their own delusions of aptitude.

Think of all the group projects you've ever worked on and multiply that by huge egos. I find it hard to believe that any of these people can coordinate with the level of precision most conspiracy theories claim. Do they happen? Definitely. Is it as commonplace as they think? Definitely not.
