Dear People Who Found Their Demons Can Swim

Dear people who tried to drown their demons and found their demons can swim,

Did you try tying their arms?
Or attaching weights?
Or anything else that drowning usually involves?
Because I'm pretty sure that most people who try to drown others do something to make sure the victim drowns, because they assume their victims can swim.

If you tried to drown them simply by putting them in water, did you at least push them off the side of a large ship so your demons would have to climb up the side of the ship to get back?
Did you push them off of a speedboat so you could get away quickly?

Or if you really want to get the job done:
Did you try to drown them by hanging them upside-down over their own sink like Zemo did on Civil War? That way, their ability to sink wouldn't really matter that much.

Sincerely,
-A Demon Hunter (what did you expect my first name meant?)

Sexual Misconduct

Sexual misconduct is inappropriate no matter who you are. I don't care how rich or powerful you are, and I don't care how good of a movie you made, you don't have license to engage in sexual misconduct. I do think a fair trial is necessary for sex offenders before punishing them with anything, including being fired. Not because I don't believe the accusers, but because a fair trial is necessary for every crime, and this should be treated as an actual crime, not as something taboo that at best ge ts you fired or gets you 3 months in prison as a warning to others. Are there some flaws in a fair trial? Yes. A jury might declare a guilty person to be innocent or declare an innocent person to be guilty. A fair trial might give too light a sentence, though I'm not sure I would consider that a fair trial. But I think it would frequently give people the punishment they deserve instead of the slap on the wrist and publicity they too frequently get.

Are There Any Cheat Codes For Mutual?

My friend Nate Tucker recently asked "How do you improve your Mutual game?" Other friends asked "Are there any cheat codes?" and "How do you lower the difficulty level?" The Konami code only gives your character +5 Charisma, & it only works once. But there are some more organic ways to improve your characters' stats: With enough XP, you can tweak your profile in a way that will generate better scenarios and allow you to play with better players, but those sometimes cause harder boss-battles (If you thought the DTR at Level 11 was difficult, look at what happens at the Water Temple on Level 32). The most effective way to increase XP (along with developing skill trees and increasing travel distances) is unlocking new dialogue trees for your character and the other characters around you. A lot of players treat the other characters as NPCs, which leaves them with a very limited dialogue tree, usually set to either Small Talk or Jerk. You can unlock s...

Of Course They're Similar Plots - You Were Too Vague!

When you're describing the similarity between two plots, the more general you are, the less credible you are. Here's a general sketch of the worst versions of "every story is the same" or "these two stories are remarkably similar": "A character who is uncomfortable with his/her life is has a situation that forces him/her to reluctantly go on an adventure (possibly involving 1-2 companions who are total opposites of him/her) in order to get something (s)he really wants. Along  the way, (s)he encounters a lot of obstacles, has conflict with other characters, gets taken to his/her lowest point, and changes as a person. He/She finally gets the opportunity to return to his/her old life and either chooses to refuse it and continue in his/her new life or go back to his old life as a changed character." It technically describe virtually every plotline, but it's so vague that it shouldn't make anyone surprised about how similar the plotlines are. No...
