    I get this almost daily, my whole family and several friends know I’m good at recommending things to them so they always go to me to ask what to watch. I’ve had to start looking up and writing down where each movie and show is available “normally”. I have no issue saying I get everything via other means but whem it became a thing where people started asking “can you also look up where it’s available” just because it’s not always easy to figure that out and they knew I didn’t know and generally find it quicker than them.

    If someone is unaware of piracy: Tell them.

    If someone is aware of piracy and doesn’t care: “I don’t really know, I just got it off of a torrent site.”

    If someone is aware of piracy and cares too much for a company they don’t work for: You can ignore them.

      Do you know of any easily shareable beginner’s guides?

      I love turning friends onto free media, but I don’t always want to walk them through it.

    I’m the opposite

    Them: You should check out this show I’ve been watching, it’s great. Do you have Disn-----

    Me: I can get anything online. How do you spell the name of the show? Thanks for the rec. If you need help getting anything you aren’t subscribed to let me know.

    I just respond with a hearty “yeeearghhhh!” and continue the conversation. The coworkers that know get it, the rest think I’m a lunatic.
