The lack of PsyX cards is upsetting.

Romeo and Juliet is a comedy, not a tragedy.

Two teenagers thinking their first crush is worth literally killing themselves in the dumbest scenario imaginable, I mean come on!

Tl;dr women are humans, talk to them as humans, and maybe they'll be up for making another human with you.

This comparison is ridiculous as they are completely different. This isn't about talking to other humans, it's about trying to establish a romantic relationship. It isn't a tautology that to date someone you had to speak to them.

Having spoken to someone a little bit before asking them out for a date is very standard behaviour in every environment outside of locations where people are there specifically to find a romantic relationship (be that just sex, or more), like a bar, tinder, speed dating, etc.

It's like, don't just approach a woman in the office that you've never spoken to, and ask her out. It's very unlikely (but granted, not impossible) that she wants to go from total strangers, to starting a relationship with romantic intentions, with someone she also has never spoken to.

But, if you're making a coffee and she's there too, be friendly and talk to her. Ask socially normal and typical questions like if she had a good weekend, and if so what did she get up to. If she's receptive, keep talking to her. Once this has happened a few times, and she's engaging with you - rather than just being polite and trying to get away ASAP - then ask her out. This doesn't have to take a long time, it could be as quick as a couple of days, if you're getting good responses from her.

Companies treating sustainability as marketing? In my capitalism? Surely not!

Fair point, but let's not pretend that that scene in 7 was anything more than JJ's usual mystery box, set up with no plan for execution, writing.

How on earth Disney allowed a trilogy of films in a franchise as massive as star wars to not even have a speculative outline for an overall arc blows my mind.

In short, it's a JJ Abrams film.
