After Dark still goes hard as hell, but Ichirin no Hana and Rolling Star are close runners-up

I feel like that’s the free space at the center of the card

This is how you turn Death Note into a comedy

I’d like to bruise his tenders

Nah, they’re right. Dead people can’t suffer.

Bonus points if you scribble in a “le Walmart” with a sharpie

I know you’re joking but you basically just suggested buying a pack of frozen mixed veggies so you can pick out and use only the carrots for your stew, and the idea of someone actually doing that sends my brain into a tailspin

This is top-tier, well done

If I had a nickel for every time I was troubleshooting with a friend and discovered they thought turning the monitor off and on again was “rebooting the computer” I’d be depressingly wealthy.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Do they… they torture them with a rubber horse…?

ETA: Goddammit it says rubber hose

My coworker flips his shit every time I include a ternary operator in a PR. He also insists on refactoring any block of code longer than two lines into its own function, even when it’s only used once.

He is not well liked.

An internal browser is a good idea, but in the interim, this problem can be solved by changing your default browser/app settings. You should be able to make it so that any link automatically opens in Firefox, or make it so that clicking on YouTube links prompts you to select which app you’d like to open the link with. Not sure what type of device you’re working with, but on Android you can change these settings by going to Settings > Apps > (insert app name here) and looking under the “Defaults” header.

Lol had to try 🤷‍♂️

Depending on how you look at it, this might be kinda the opposite of what you’re asking for, but I thought I’d throw it out anyway in case you may still be interested: The Ideal Sponger Life is about a Japanese salaryman who gets isekai’d (willingly and intentionally, for a change) and marries the queen of a desert nation who needs a husband for political reasons but is reluctant to marry any of her statesmen (again, for political reasons).

The manga/novel (hasn’t been animated just yet) mainly focuses on the political relationships between the nations of the isekai world, and the MC struggling to figure out how to reconcile his cultural differences while also being a decent diplomat for the sake of his nation and his wife.

Part of that is the fact that MC’s marriage was initially purely political, but he and the queen grow to genuinely love each other. However, polygyny is the common practice in this new nation, especially among aristocrats, so MC is basically required to have a harem of wives, even though he very much doesn’t want any other than the queen. This results in him having to find clever, politically acceptable ways to avoid advances from (shrewd, surprisingly well written) women who want to join his harem to garner power for their families.

In summary: It’s a political fantasy story that is only technically a harem, and even then it’s not ecchi/oblivious MC/blah, but an integral part of the political intrigue in the story. Don’t know if that’s still a deal breaker for you, but just give the first volume or two a shot. I went in with very low expectations and was blown away with how well the worldbuilding and characters were executed.

Divine Gate was exceedingly mid (not surprising, it’s based off a mobile game), but its OP One Me, Two Hearts is a banger

My favorites are flesh fries

He’s definitely stretching something

For manga, I’ve always purchased from Barnes & Noble and Books a Million, mainly because they’re near my house and I’m more of an in-store shopper, but they’ve got solid online presences and a satisfying catalogue. Plus, both have pretty good membership reward programs (B&N in particular is $40/yr and gives you 10% off pretty much everything, free shipping, and a $5 reward for every cumulative $100 spent, plus some other stuff).

And if those places don’t have what I’m looking for, there’s always Amazon
