We tried a similar rule on our One Piece forum. It forced people to pick their strongest argument instead of listing every single point. Debates about the Wano arc got much sharper because folks had to choose between talking about the art or the pacing, not both at once. The quality of replies went up when the opening posts were tighter.

Been there, shredded cardboard saved mine.

That's exactly the right fix. Made the same mistake early on, my spines looked like they had a pillow in them. A thin paste and just a damp cloth changed everything.

Oh totally, it was pure silly fun and knew it. The show leaned into the goofiness hard with stuff like that orb giving people weird future powers. It worked because it never tried to be serious sci-fi, just a comedy with horses and ray guns.

Reminds me of a buddy who kept cleaning dust off his fan blades every week. Finally looked up and saw a huge crack in his ceiling plaster letting in all kinds of crap from the attic. He was so focused on the symptom he missed the cause for months. Your point about sucking up and ignoring stuff hits hard, @rowan972. Sometimes the constant little cleanup jobs are just bandaids. Gotta step back and ask why the mess keeps coming back, or you'll never fix the real issue.
