"If worse comes to worst..."

In British English, they often say the phrase as "if worst comes to worst," which is based on archaic grammar.

In the US, there's a mix of verb tenses. The only one that make sense in this day and age is "if what is worse comes to be the worst," or "if worse comes to worst."

This point can be argued, but I will be severely wounded (maybe not so much as dying) defending this hill.

Life is Strange, with the final decision of Bae vs Bay. It made me quit the game for two days before I came back and decided (Bae forever). I love a good, story-impactful decision. That might be weird in this context, but it was so great, and that enjoyment came entirely from the game.

As long as you don't think about it, physics doesn't matter.

It truly is impressive how much drama a game about spreadsheets can have.
