The Fall of the House of Usher - Netflix "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade?

No. First you roll out a multi-media campaign to convince people lemons are incredibly scarce, which only works if you stockpile lemons, control the supply, then a media blitz.

Lemon is the only way to say “I love you,” the must-have accessory for engagements or anniversaries.

Roses are out, lemons are in. Billboards that say she won’t have sex with you unless you got lemons. You cut De Beers in on it. Limited edition lemon bracelets, yellow diamonds called lemon drops. You get Apple to call their new operating system OS-Lemón. A little accent over the “o.”

You charge 40% more for organic lemons, 50% more for conflict-free lemons. You pack the Capitol with lemon lobbyists, you get a Kardashian to suck a lemon wedge in a leaked sex tape. Timotheé Chalamet wears lemon shoes at Cannes.

Get a hashtag campaign. Something isn’t “cool” or “tight” or “awesome,” no, it’s “lemon.” “Did you see that movie? Did you see that concert? It was effing lemon.” Billie Eilish, “OMG, hashtag… lemon.”

You get Dr. Oz to recommend four lemons a day and a lemon suppository supplement to get rid of toxins ‘cause there’s nothing scarier than toxins.

Then you patent the seeds. You write a line of genetic code that makes the lemons look just a little more like tits… and you get a gene patent for the tit-lemon DNA sequence, you cross-pollinate… you get those seeds circulating in the wild, and then you sue the farmer for copyright infringement when that genetic code shows up on their land.

I'd go with "for fucks' sake" because the fuck owns the sake thus the apostrophe indicates professionalism with ownership and context because its the titular "fuck" that has fucks to give so this is where the "sake" or destiny lies.

It's tempting to go with an alternative reasoning where the 'sake of the fuck' is the more relevant object e.g. In social settings that commonly precede potential fucking. This use would be limited to social contexts not professional.

“The moral of the Icarus story ?” I said, pursing my lips 

“Well, I guess that depends on how you see the passage of your life. Some people might say “he tried so hard and thats what matters”, others would say “he rose above his station and paid the price”, “move onto the next hustle, failure is progress”. Yet others might say “he went against the gods who threw him down” and write poetry on the injustice of fickle gods. 

And the angel asked, “well then, which of the types is your favourite?”

“Oh, easy. Engineers would say” I said “Its not a fucking arts and crafts project, forget the fucking feathers and wax lets get some leather and wood so we don’t fucking die”.

You can choose to buy pre-made cookie dough and make a single cookie at a time in the air fryer. 

Have I achieved my dream of being a wizard ?

Today I mixed a potion made from powdered animal marrow (creatine) and skins (collagen) with fruit infused philtre (peach tea) to increase my mental and charisma stats.

When this was first introduced it felt so cool, so unique. Now the customisation choices are lame and insufficient. A very limited palette of icons and all text is San Francisco Small Caps which is aesthetically dissonant (and that font is for screens not for real products).

Is that just me ?

A cynical version of myself would say "why not ?". If your imaginary friend says words about your cannabis and that makes you happy then I'm here for you. You are obviously nuts but it's the nice kind.
