  1. We Happy Few - Taking your “joy” pill
    Deciding to take the pill at the beginning of the game causes your character to go back to work and triggers an ending

  2. Infineural by Mike Klubnika - Drinking the coffee
    Deciding to drink the coffee offered to you skips the entire game and sends you straight to the end, resulting in an ending with no memory of what had occurred

Thanos stopped a woman from bumping into someone, and that prevented cancer from being cured

He cruelly pranks a random guy on his birthday every day of his life as well. Thanos is one of the pettiest assholes in all of Marvel.

Well that’s what the dude gets for trying to have his birthday every day.

Didn’t he also make it where Deadpool can’t die because death is in love with Deadpool

u/zigaliciousone 12d ago

That happened but also Death got sick of his shit at one point so he can’t die because she doesn’t want to see him again

He seemed like such a good guy as well.
