I watch all kinds of international stuff including European detective shows, #Kdrama, #Jdorama and #Telenovelas, but I have never gotten into Chinese dramas. Every time I start one, I quit after an episode or two. Is there something really good out there I am missing? #cDrama

Voy a hacer un hilo de cosas sobre mí para presentarme un poco. Empiezo por aquí:

Me llamo Franco porque vengo de Argentina y mi madre siempre ha sido de #telenovelas. Muy fan ella, me puso Franco porque así se llamaba uno de los personajes de una que veía ella (y no, no era Pasión de Gavilanes, desgraciadamente…).

Connaissez vous les meilleures séries du monde ? Les #Telenovelas sont une source inépuisable de mauvais dialogue, doublages pourris et de situations invraisemblables.

I realized that my love of garbage reality competition shows is much like what people love about telenovelas:

- engineered drama
- over-the-top reactions
- absurdly contrived situations
- a villain… OR ARE THEY
- shifting alliances
- major fights
- a hero… OR ARE THEY
- secret hookups
- intense music
- somebody always gets kicked off (but will often return in a future ep)
- …….. dramatic…………… …………………. pauses

My friends on twitter have heard me yammer on endlessly about this and now it’s y’all’s turn:

#JaneTheVirgin is one of the best shows ever made. It’s not grimdark and traumatic (which most of the “best of” shows are); quite the opposite. It’s sunny and silly with a lovely bright color palette. It’s a love letter to #telenovelas, but you don’t have to have watched a single ep of one to enjoy it.

When you can't figure out a way to have some #cxx #cpp C++ code correctly parsed by #doxygen for documentation, so you just #ifdef , #elif and #endif an implementation visible solely for doxygen so it can generate documentation the way it likes, and you decide to make a post about it.

Then when you post about it you remember that hash symbol # starts both prepro directives in C++ and tags in Mastodon, so you just introduced tags for the C++ preprocessor.

Then you also remember that "elif" is also a name. At least, I seem to recall it in use by some Turkish or Greek #telenovelas.

Which is more or less what your coding adventure with Doxygen was. A telenovela.
