I’m not sure if this is insignificant, due to how people pay, but diamonds are a waste of money. And the people that pay for them are rubes.

Is there a term for words that are self-descriptive?

They’re Dutch, it’s a part of their culture!

Where lies the strangling fruit that came from the hand…

For Lex Luthor, I think that he doesn’t like Superman because he’s a threat to him, not that he’s a threat to people. Which may seem similar, but the end goals are completely different.

Had it not been for Cotton Stick Joe…

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I was upset at first, but I figured they’re making something really good, and I was fine paying. If it was continuous, I would probably drop it for a different one.

Yeah, I find the best approach for me is to workout as long as it’s still fun. As long as you’re trying to do more than the day before, you’ll make progress, if that’s what you want.

To summarize, parodies show why those things being parodied are dumb, while self awareness is embracing the tropes while not taking itself seriously. Which answers my question.

I watched the original Scream years after seeing Scary Movie, and realized Scary Movie is just Scream on cocaine. A lot of the jokes are the same or just slightly different.

What’s the line between being self aware and a parody?

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were originally a parody of Daredevil. I think they have surpassed it in popularity.
