    I’m so over the use of “checks notes” for emphasis. for every entertaining way of making commentary there are thousands of boring copies.

      For some reason it’s one of the acceptable “le Epic roleplay” sayings that people tolerate. I see it the same as the litany of other ones that aren’t, like “I put on my robe and wizard hat” or “rawrs at you” or whatever.

      It doesn’t even make sense to say it in this context. They don’t understand what it means at all, they just mindlessly spouted it off like a robot.
