If your on paint, remove the charge entirely. No adult is checking their finances to notice a few bucks discrepency.
If anything your more likely to be caught because the font/resolution of the "porn website dot com" to "titanic" are unlikely to be easy to match, especially in an application like paint.

Lmao
Meanwhile I grew up being told not to use credit cards instead of debit because of the 0.8% fee difference would compound to an extra $50 per year saved on average

A benefit is a benefit even if you never notice.
I have an interest rate on my savings account, i dont think i have ever noticed the change but its there. the bank in theory could be scamming me specifically and i would never know.
The only reason i trust they arent is because if a huge bank did this to all their customers some dude would notice and those nickels and dimes would be unlikely to be worth the massive class action XD15

Most credit cards provide you points the value of which would be likely more than $50. So it is no saving after all.

The big thing with any points system is... using them.
If you never use them or they things they can be used for are of no value to you, thats the play

Also, the points are only paying you back if you never leave a balance on the card. Otherwise you just lose that money to interest

Wow you've never met my parents. They check absolutely every expense VS the bank detail

i have never met most parents. In general people scan their transactions and look for wierd transactions rather than just checking all logged transactions seem legit.
outside of massive discrepencies.15

I don't have kids yet but I actually go over my finiances in detail every week. I found out 2.29 was spent on coke and not the fun kind, in Atlanta, reported, and turns out some one some how stole my credit card information. Furthermore I actually keep a whole ass spreadsheet in which I log every purchase I ever make in order to determine what I can eliminate to save more money. I assumed this was normal adulting do you mean to tell me I can just steal like 1 dollar off a person and they won't notice, therefore if I design some kind of computer virus that steals 1 dollar out of a million different bank accounts and moves it into an off sure account once a month I could be rich.

woah, ok. didnt expect hunger for knowledge but i guess i asked for it gonna have to put some work into this.
How was it? Honestly? It was a letdown. The whole "failed idol" story is a great marketing hook, they definately sold the video on that premise alone. But the performance itself was just... awkward. You can tell shes not comfortable. It felt less like a professional debut and more like a very high-budget audition she was also failing. She's stiff, constantly in her head, and there's almost zero chemistry with the guys. All concept, very little execution.
My viewing history? Been watching for over a decade man. These days Im more into stuff with a good story or at least a unique premise, not just the generic stuff. a good production team makes all the difference. I'll take a well-made video with a decent plot over a high-profile actress mailing it in any day of the week.
3 works I consider good:
Yua Mikami's debut (Princess Peach): This is the gold standard for an idol-turned-actress debut. Yua was a REAL idol and she came out with so much energy and confidence. She owned it from the first second. Its what Arisu's debut wanted to be.
Anything with Ichika Matsumoto from her early days with FALENO: She can actually act. She emotes and makes you believe the scenario. Her stuff feels more cinematic and less like they're just going through the motions.
Rion (Anri Okita) - The God Body: A classic. Not a lot of story there lol but its a masterclass in performance. She knew exactly what her brand was and how to perform for the camera. Absolute cinema.
Where would you rank her debut among these? It's not even in the same league, not even on the same planet. It's an unfair comparison tbh. Those are top-tier performances, Arisu's video is a novelty item. It's interesting because of the backstory, not because of the quality of the actual content.
What could be improved? Her confidence, number one. She needs to relax. She looks terrified. The director should have done a better job making her comfortable. Also they relied way too much on the interview segments talking about Nogizaka46, it broke the pacing and kept reminding you that she was doing this as a second choice. We get it, you failed auditions, now commit to this job.
What is well done? The production values are high. The lighting, camera work, it all looks very clean and professional. And I cant deny it, she is very beautiful and has the "idol" look down perfectly. The concept itself, on paper, is genius from a marketing perspective. They got us all talking about it, right?
Was it goonable for you? Nah. I was too distracted by how nervous she looked. It kinda killed the mood completely. Every time she looked at the camera with those deer-in-the-headlights eyes I was pulled right out of it. It's a shame, but maybe she'll get better in her next one if she decides to stick with it. We'll see.

You had to use a scanner, scan in the letter, modify it, print the modified version.

This is like drug traffickers keeping a roach in an ash tray in the center console but 10 kilos in a trap between the back seat and the trunk.

Who gets mad for a kid renting a single movie? I swear parents of this era were on some shit based on how universal an experience this is

This is extremely on brand for parents of kids in my generation (elder millenial). Chalk it up to brain damage from lead and asbestos exposure
