On the other hand I think it would be very funny to retitle literary fiction light novel style. “Oh No! This Author Stand-In is Unhappily Married”

Old Eastern European guy comes into the garage my kid works at, where they’re discussing Christmas movies and someone said something about the Grinch.
Old Guy: “I do not know this ”Grinch”.
Kid’s boss shows Old Guy a picture of the Grinch on his phone.
Old Guy:”That is one nasty son-of-bitch, no?”

No. The Thing is a movie about a bunch of people who all distrust and hate each other trapped in one building as the tension between them slowly builds until it reaches a breaking point. It's a Thanksgiving movie.

re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"
