Whether we wanted it or not 

Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.

I don’t want peace; I want problems ALWAYS!!!!!! 

I don’t want peace; I want problems ALWAYS!!!!!! — a popular meme that originated in the unbelievable genre: African Martial Arts Films.

This particular line appears in the 2017 adaptation of the Mortal Kombat game, from Ghana's Kumawood scene. The line is spoken by Marsuel Hoppe, who plays Shao Kahn, the armored tyrant from the video game. Kumawood productions are typically low-budget and quickly produced.

This line is an absolute declaration of martial arts militancy and the desire to fight even is your opponent is suing for peace.
You want peace? You want peace? I don’t want peace; I want problems ALWAYS!!!!!!

“…if want something done, ask a woman” 

“…if want something done, ask a woman” — the entire quote is: “If you want something said ask a man; and if you want something done, ask a woman.”

This quote was used with great effect by Niki Haley during the 2023 Surrender Day Eve Republican debates.

The only woman on stage, she used this saying to attack the “Demi-masculine MAGA boys” surrounding her.

Haley herself attributed this saying to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher; and Harley’s delivery was flawless and absolutely castrating!

Seven men probably checked for their ball-sacks after leaving the stage they shared with Haley — except for the Miami Mascot, Ron DeSantis, who has already been neutered by Donald Trump
If you want something said ask a man…
“…if want something done, ask a woman”.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
