Graphics, as in graphical fidelity, polygon count, etc. are valueless to me.

Art style is everything. I don't care if I can see the pixels in the game, I still play the same SNES my family had 25 years ago. The game has to look good, and graphical fidelity is a tool to help achieve that, but it's only a tool, and useless without the appropriate art direction.

It's not.

"Hey, look at that girl/car/tree/Chihuahua" isn't a left nod. It's eye contact, then you look at the thing.

"Come here/go there, let's talk" isn't a right nod. It's a weird neck movement where your head is kind of sideways and you're nodding in the direction of the place you want them to go. You usually use "Hey, look at that tree" first before you try to get them to go to the tree to talk.

Can confirm up and down are correct enough, though. Up is for people you know, down is for people you don't.

This is exactly why I usually say it means "Something's wrong" instead of "I want something" because the cat is perfectly capable of occupying un-pillowed laps, it just chooses not to.

Close, but not quite. PC stands for paper cassette, e.g. the tray you load the paper into. You're right about it referring to the paper size, though. PC LOAD LETTER just means "Put more letter-size paper into the tray."

One of the kings could still pay the bishop, so still not checkmate.

For real. Just because Putin is a Bond villain doesn't make every citizen of Russia one of his goons.

When you cast a leveled spell using a bonus action, the only other spells you can cast with your action on that turn is a cantrip.

I, personally, think it's confusing and doesn't really add much in the way of balance to the game. Let the wizard burn all his spells twice as fast and be useless for the rest of the adventuring day. If your adventures have meaningful consequences for taking too long clearing a dungeon, it'll work itself out.

Man in Black : All right. Where is the poison? The battle of wits has begun. It ends when you decide and we both drink, and find out who is right... and who is dead.

Vizzini : But it's so simple. All I have to do is divine from what I know of you: are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own goblet or his enemy's? Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.

Man in Black : You've made your decision then?

Vizzini : Not remotely. Because iocane comes from Australia, as everyone knows, and Australia is entirely peopled with criminals, and criminals are used to having people not trust them, as you are not trusted by me, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.

Man in Black : Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.

Vizzini : Wait till I get going! Now, where was I?

Man in Black : Australia.

Vizzini : Yes, Australia. And you must have suspected I would have known the powder's origin, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.

Man in Black : You're just stalling now.

Vizzini : You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? You've beaten my giant, which means you're exceptionally strong, so you could've put the poison in your own goblet, trusting on your strength to save you, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But, you've also bested my Spaniard, which means you must have studied, and in studying you must have learned that man is mortal, so you would have put the poison as far from yourself as possible, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.

Man in Black : You're trying to trick me into giving away something. It won't work.

Vizzini : IT HAS WORKED! YOU'VE GIVEN EVERYTHING AWAY! I KNOW WHERE THE POISON IS!

Man in Black : Then make your choice.

Vizzini : I will, and I choose... what in the world can that be?

[Vizzini gestures up and away from the table. The Man in Black looks backwards. Vizzini swaps the goblets]

Man in Black : What? Where? I don't see anything.

Vizzini : Well, I- I could have sworn I saw something. But no matter.

[Vizzini tries to hold back laughter]

Man in Black : What's so funny?

Vizzini : I'll tell you in a minute. First, let's drink. Me from my glass, and you from yours.

[Vizzini and the Man in Black drink]

Man in Black : You guessed wrong.

Vizzini : You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders - the most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line"! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha...

While I agree with this mostly (permanent is probably too long, maybe X months after you pay for the worker's medical bills), that wouldn't have helped in this instance, since it was a stray dog.

I would probably include Metal Wolf Chaos unironically.

For real. Imagine going into a movie theater while Star Trek is playing and yelling at everyone "Man, I hate Jar Jar, can we just never play science fiction here?"

Am I contagious, or showing symptoms of something contagious? Stay home.

Am I incapable of doing my job or driving to work? Stay home.

Otherwise? Suck it up.
