I love this except for the bit where everyone, I mean everyone, is so frequently making all these little decisions for which their motivations seem just dumbfoundingly nonsensical.
It's not even that the decisions themselves seem bad! Everything is headed in a nice direction, it seems. Rather, it's like if I asked someone if they'd rather have Japanese or Italian food tonight, and they unironically say, "Well, I like Japanese food, so," and then walk towards the Italian restaurant.
