@cosmic_marvel @CanWeGetToast This is incredibly frustrating, not only did Bill Hader & Mindy Kaling help make Fear & Disgust the memorable characters they were, but if they were going to introduce new emotions as Riley grew older, they shouldn't have shown adults and teenagers with only the five emotions.

@CrystalGemsOOC This episode really hurt to watch. There are hints that Greg's childhood was far worse than Steven thinks, but at the same time, Greg's desire to NOT follow in his parents footsteps resulted in a lack of structure for Steven's life, which had it's own negative consequences.

@BrownBirdTown I've found that "Autism Speaks" feels more like it's for people related to those with Autism than about the Autistic people themselves, and how they can "deal with the Autism", which feels more than a little insulting, and that's not even getting into finding a "cure" for Autism.

@NonsenseIsland The transformation looks really off in the remake, because the CGI is just that bad. Also, the kids drink root beer now instead of regular beer, which kind of defeats the whole point behind Pleasure Island.

@JosNamesnotJo2 Wario WAS a villain, once, where he was motivated by jealousy & envy over Mario & his castle. Wario just acts generically evil in Subspace Emissary with no hint of his normal characterization. I get the feeling Sakurai just used him because he didn't have enough playable villains
