Very True, though they used to taste even better pre-2009 (in 2009 they switched from Artificial Colouring to Natural Colouring).

The titles being so long aren't actually "needless", it's because so many series like this originated as web novels on a site (Shosetsuka ni Naro) that doesn't allow you to include plot description blurbs in the listing, so to attract readers you have to put the entire premise/pitch in the title.

Wait so are you re-caught-up/not going to add to the read-through thread any more?

Could be worse. r/QuestionableConent is populated *exclusively* by people who hate the series. That is to say, the people who DON'T 100% hate the series & are on reddit had to split off and make a second subreddit (r/QContent) just to discuss the series with anything other than 100% vitriol and hate

In contrast, Tokusatsu fans generally are fans of the entire Tokusatsu medium. It's why I say I'm Toku fan but not an anime fan, even though I've watched way more anime than Toku in the past year.

The author wasn't actually expecting Willis to actually go down the Dorthy/Joyce route, so the later developments were met with something along the lines of "wow, I was not expecting to accidentally sorta predict the future".

So this conversation lead to someone writing a fic where where Dorthy demonstrates to Joyce by having sex with JOE in front of Joyce, and ends up with with a Joyce-centric Dorthy/Joyce/Joe throuple. It was linked in the comments a couple days later in the one where Sal walks in on Joyce & Joe in bed

IMO the plot point would have been received better if it was the world record in a game that doesn't have a Summoning Salt documentary with extremely precise detail on what would be needed to beat it.

Ah yes, fond memories of when that page dropped:

So in the Walkyverse timeline Danny's romantic history is: dates Sal (Walky's long lost twin sister) in highschool, is obsessively crushed on by Joyce (Walky's future wife) in college, and marries Bille (Walky's childhood best friend) in adulthood. It may just be both comics' longest running joke.

What about the Six days a week? Or is literally just EGS/EGS:NP that does that?

As an American you have a leg up on all your Canadian classmates when styling with CSS, because you don't have to actively remember to spell "color" the American way to get the CSS properties to actually work.

This actually extends to cards that just mention "Auntie" in their flavour text as well: scryfall.com/search?as=gr...

There is only a single card in MTG with "Auntie" in the name that *isn't* a goblin/goblin-themed: scryfall.com/search?q=aun...

Willis has long been a warrior for the "Girls with Glasses are hot" cause:

I am almost entirely certain those are meant to be freckles.

Fun fact: there is a storyline in It's Walky where Walky & Joyce get hit with a Rule 63 Beam, in case you'd like to have an idea what a post-transition Walky could look like.
(Storyline starts here for those curious: www.itswalky.com/comic/well-s...).

So, fun(?) fact: In the Walkyverse cannon, Rose and Zaph were Amber and Faz's "mirror counterparts" who worked at the "rival" store "McAwesome's Parasailing and Chocolate Bakery" across the street from the Shortpacked toy store. It would also later be implied all 4 of them are all half-siblings.

I present to you, the time in Shortpacked when Walkyverse Mike slept with both Amber & Ethan the same night (in adjacent hotel rooms) in order to be a hater to 3 people at once:

I try to avoid having social media accounts as much as possible. Name comes from back when twitter 1st started requiring accounts to see replies/full profiles (was long before I discovered xcancel), and I created a random burner twitter solely to view replies/full profiles. Used the same name here.

I thought it was for a nickel?

Back in the Walkyverse canon of Shortpacked, he described himself as "Whatever you don't want me to be". This was in the same comic he helped Ethan figure out he is gay:
