                Irrational and never-ending aren’t the same thing…
                Irrational means the number can’t be represented as a fraction
                Never-ending is pretty self explanatory…
                1/81 is never-ending but isn’t irrational

        Actually I believe they are in his office, not a classroom. It is, however, a shared office with Penny… which does make this an awkward situation if she were to walk back in. On the whole I agree… sex, especially of the ill-advised persuasion, should be had behind private locked doors!

    Yeah, Sal, I don’t think Jason’s the one who needs to shut up here. On the bright side the more time these two spend together the more I like Jason if only because Sal is so unpleasant around him. I don’t know why, some kind of subconscious response to side against the person causing the annoyance.

    Maybe that’s the secret to making Danny likable, hook him up with Sal.

              Ethan has probably downgraded in likability, though this seems intentional.
              All three you mentioned are just lacking character development that they achieved in the other continuity. The way I see it, they’re still great characters in terms of depth as-is, even without the maturing done in walkyverse.

                I don’t think they’re lacking in character development so much as they’re just acting like jerks and idiots. Ruth has done maybe two likable things so far, two. She has a sympathetic backstory but is not a sympathetic character because of the way she behaves. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter WHY someone acts like an ass, just that they do. Motivations are interesting but not an excuse.

                  I think the less likability is due to lack of characterization, as well. Walky is pretty much acting how he did near the end of high school. Ethan’s personal history has changed a fair bit, but this really doesn’t seem that out of character compared to his pre-‘coming out’ self. Now I’m gonna shut up before I talk too much about things that don’t have any effect on this continuity…

              I find Ruth much more relatable in her current incarnation. There was far too much “woe is me, my life sucks” from her in the Walkyverse. I liked her more when it was seemingly pointless rage, and I like her even more now that I actually get what drives her to make the mistakes she makes. I feel like Ruth, more than any other character, is a credit to how much Willis’ writing has grown since Roomies!.

    “Finite Mathematics”? Why would Sal be taking a course at that level? That’s the kind of mathematics where intuition, common sense and a rough grasp of things are exactly useless because the same question might have completely different answers depending on the choice of system.

The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the

You Can’t Even Watch A Movie Anymore Without Seeing Some Theme Explored
I’ve loved movies ever since I was a little kid. Just stepping into that dark theater, with the smell of fresh popcorn, was like being transported to a whole other world. It used to be so magical.

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908. "You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

Who can forget the Swiss-Austrian Union, or its famous capital - Istanbul.
AI generated ad by a company called Travello showing the 10 most visited cities in Europe, except the cities are hilariously poorly placed. London is in Wales, Paris is in Ireland, Rome is in France, Rom (yes like Rome but without an E) is in Spain, Barcelona is in Morocco, Prague is in Germany, Vienna is in Italy, Istanbul is in Austria, Milan is in Libya, and Antalya is correctly shown as in Turkey but is in the wrong place. Also a few of the borders like Switzerland and Austria or Hungary and Slovenia are missing.

wilbur, savvy enough to know he's in a comic strip but still not a great actor, awkwardly lifts a muffin up into frame so that we, the audience, understand that he has a muffin right now, which is very important narratively, but he's not really selling it well as an organic, human action
