Open Ended Movie

A storytelling style that reflects the ongoing nature of life, where the narrative lacks a clear structure or final conclusion, continuously presenting new conflicts and resolutions
The Lord of the Rings is not an open ended movie story—once the ring is destroyed, the main conflict is resolved, and the story concludes. In contrast, Ratatouille is an open-ended story. Remy achieves his dream of cooking within the first 20 minutes, but the narrative continues, introducing new conflicts and resolutions, reflecting the ongoing nature of life

End of Days person

A person who thinks everyone and everything is out to get them and destroy their way of life. The type of person you immediately unfriend on all social media. Similar to a conspiracy theorist, but an End of Days person will unprovokenly dump their psychotic thoughts on you without hesitation. Best to stay away.
Pat: "Did you see the article on what they put into the vaccines??? I can't believe that the government would force us to get those. I will never get anything made by the government."

Sean: "Stay away from the End of Days person over here."

dead end candidate

1. A thing that prevents others from beating it by being too good, but cannot not evolve to get any better.

2. Whatever SFIA (famous youtuber) mean when he said that dinosaurs are a dead end candidate. (forgot which video he used the term)
Dinosaur hater: you always talk about wanting dinosaurs to survive the asteroid impact, but you forgot that they were a dead end candidate. Dinosaurs do not have precision control of their hands to make technology. And, dinosaurs eat the animals that do have precision control, such as early primates and other dinosaurs that had better hands.
Dinosaur lover: oh yeah, you always liked the soviet union, but they were also a dead end candidate, but for social progress. The soviet union oppressed freedoms by banning lgbt. The soviet union had many times the economical and military power compared to the USA. And, the soviet union cannot do social progress because all their citizens were blue-pilled and too busy enjoying their large purchasing power to notice the oppression.

"Doomsday is approaching. This time the Christians will remember the Devil's Acronym: END."
