Nor are many unpopular opinion puffin I meet across 9gag or even Google Images. But I guess it'll be unpopular to Dominion Online developers, and maybe even owners of physical Dominion ?

By using the Unpopular Opinion Potion image for that text, you're suggesting that believing "[Exploder is the best $5 card] is nonsense" is itself an unpopular opinion, meaning most people believe that to think "Explorer is the best $5 card" is merely an unpopular opinion.

"Explorer is the best $5 card" has more upvotes than my meme, which illustrates that it is considered valid by the majority, making my use of the unpopular opinion potion valid. The less upvotes i have, the more right i am. You can rectify this by upvoting me.

Wouldn't the original "Explorer is the best $5 card" image be upvoted because people agree that it's an unpopular opinion, not that they think Explorer is the best $5 card?

The "unpopular opinion" meme the Potion version follows is used to express the fact that the poster has an opinion and likes to state it, even though he knows it's unpopular. Like:



I'm complaining that "Explorer is the best $5" has nothing to do with this meme. First, it's obviously not Seprix' actual opinion. Second, it's arguably an opinion at all. You wouldn't say "2+2=Cheesecake" is an unpopular opinion just because it's a blatantly false statement.

First Turn Problems!

Clarification:  Baker is the protagonist of this meme.  The Baker card is not assumed to be in the Supply.

Hrm, before switching into Software Engineering, I had to learn all about those engines in Mechanical Engineering thermodynamics courses. Engines were easier to understand than fridges for some reason, I think. Not particularly good memories.

Refrigerators are weird.  I think I almost understood the idea once, but it was pretty flipping wierd.  Like you squeeze 40-degree gas into 42-degree liquid, but then you take the pressure away and it evaporates into 35-degree gas or something, because that excess energy is all like, "we can't be this hot at this pressure if we haven't become a gas yet".  Because reasons, I don't know.

Anyway, I ended up doing math because at least at that stage it was easier.  The sort of clarity of definitions and domain-range input-output sorting-out on the theory side of math is sort of like basics of programming, from what little I know of that.

You squash it and the temperature rises, so heat flows out.  You then let it return to its original size, but some heat has been lost so it's colder than when it started.

Oh.  Weird.  I thought it had something to do with the liquid-gas transition.

It took me forever to realize this was a pun. Chapeau.
Edit: Probably partly because i didn't realize the commonly used expression is "draw engine".

But 2 + 2 does equal Cheescake in base Ramsey.
