Return Of The Jedi: All their optimism for restoring the republic, Luke restoring the Jedi, Han and Leia starting a family. All made pointless by the crappy sequels.
The universe is a cruel, uncaring void. The key to being happy isn’t a search for meaning. It’s to just keep yourself busy with unimportant nonsense, and eventually, you’ll be dead.
Ain’t nothing wrong with release order, IMO. The differences in cinematography, direction, special effects, ect. become distracting when the trilogies are broken up like that.
To really enhance the cultural zeitgeist of the early 2000s, the prequel trilogy should be experienced with a set of Taco Bell promotional cups and contest pieces from eBay. Alternatively, one could purchase a Pepsi from one of the surviving Phantom Menace vending machines.

Your dad is right. A flail is an incredibly impractical weapon that’s unsafe for the wielder. For close quarters unarmored combat, find yourself a woman who’s handy with a dagger or smallsword. With the understanding that she’s also proficient with a good polearm or bow for the fighting in the field.
I used to be a Jedi like you, then I took a lighsaber to the arm. Then later to the knee, and other leg, and other arm. Then later to the robotic version of the arm I lost the first time.

For a second I thought you looked up their birthdays and this was literally about the fact that Tobey Maguire was 23-years-old playing a college kid and only one year younger than this actor playing a middle-aged dad and it was a funny haha moment about Hollywood casting and age discrepancy between actors and the characters they play.
Then I did some more thinking and remembered that Spider-Man 2 came out in 2004 and I am an idiot.
BTW Tobey Maguire was born in 1975 and the other actor’s name is Peter Allas and I couldn’t find his birthday.
Maybe there’s a framework of rules that the time traveler must adhere to (or risk being disintegrated by the time police).
For example, specific knowledge of the future is off-limits, but it’s OK to give basic advice as long as it’s already general knowledge for the time period you’re traveling to. Make sound investments, eat right, exercise, don’t smoke, etc.

While a ball valve is more durable and provides a tight seal, opening and closing will cause an abrupt change in pressure that can strain your system. A gate valve will allow for more granular pressure regulation, but is prone to leakage and degradation of the valve stem over time.
