Save Cycling

In video games: A process of overriding automatic saves by manually saving your game at points that may prove to be challenging or likely to lead to a death or a game over screen.

Save cycling can also be used to manipulate RNG in order to leave the player with a more favorable item pickup or enemy encounter, and is often done multiple times in a row.

Most importantly, this is not an intended use of the game-save feature and normally requires an exploit such as unlinking auto-save data (often a cloud save), so it cannot be automatically overwritten and requires manual intervention.

I just couldn't beat the third boss after going through the whole level again, so I save cycled just before the encounter and did it on my third try!

Save cycling was my only option to get the ultra rare spank emote; it took 100 tries, but I got the Platinum trophy!

Song cover by a Generation Alpha kid (Gen A) of "Last Christmas" by Wham!, also known as George Michael and instrumentalist Andrew Ridgeley.
The cover includes Generation Alpha/Generation Z slang such as, gyatt, rizz, fanum tax, and mewing.
Gen A: "Last Rizzmas I gave you my gyatt and the very next day you got fanum taxed, this year to save me from mewing I'll give it to someone rizzful"

Every other gen: "What." 💀

The church can save this country

All you have to do is whatever I say forever regardless of whether or not the direct or peripheral effect of doing that is bad and regardless of the outcome...
A muffin "The church can save this country!"

Hym "Then why is it not doing that?"

A muffin "Uh... Well, you're not doing what I say forever."

Hym "Right, but if you believe that then you should just be doing that anyway, right? Like, you could save the country... But you're not doing it so..."

A muffin "Withholding aid and resources as punishment for non-compliance is part of the religion I'm doing to you."

Hym "Yeah, ok, so it can't save the country... It's harming the country by withholding aid (arbitrarily) and you're offering to STOP DOING THE THING YOU'RE DOING... In exchange for forever-compliance?"

A muffin "Correct."

Hym "So, you're not saving the country. You're destroying the country until everyome does what you want?"

A muffin "Correct... BUT! I COULD be saving it instead... But I'm not going to unless you fuck your sister."
