It has some rough moments owing to the poor transition from novel to film, but it is easily in my top 20.

@sunny The only one I saw when I wrote the original post was a 17 year old, and I never saw any adults doing the tide pod challenge at all.

Mind you, I've seen plenty of adults walking around their house or back yard doing the Bird Box challenge, and that is, frankly, dumb, but w/e. It's not like they're having people shoot at them while they're doing it or putting pointy spikes around their yard first.

But anyone who gets in a car to drive blindfolded should be deported. To Antarctica.

I'm not a fan of epic or their launcher, I'd rather use Origin. So for me, anything going Epic exclusive is a hard pass.

Having experienced some of Origin's weirder quirks, this reads to me a little like "I'm not a fan of having a fork stuck in my eye, I'd rather have it stuck in my foot." I mean... yes, fair, but I'd prefer not being stuck with a knife in the first place.

I get what you're saying... but...

This alone turned my opinion right around on Origin, LOL.

Yeah, I will grant that Origin has bizarrely fast download speeds compared to other storefronts. And I still use it, too; there's games in there I want to play (Anthem included), so I suffer through the occasional weirdness ("Sorry, I'm going to have to verify those game files before you can play; this should only take 30 minutes." "You wanted your cloud saves? LOL NOPE." and so on) to get those games.

The fact that I cant play The Witcher 3 on PC (a game that can be played entirely offline on console or through GOG) offline after buying it thru Origin made me say fuck Origin and I rebought it on GOG

Yeah Extra Life Org specifically is streaming PUBG all weekend to raise money. Generally they announce when the yearly even will be around April, and you can start taking donations then, even if you don't play until November, and they accept them each year until December 31st.
