Okay, if your creative work contains the phrase "question everything" in any place or context, as in "John will have an adventure that causes him to question everything!", delete all files and start over again.

If you are a film executive, take a good hard look in a mirror, think about what you've done, and go learn a goddamn trade.

"Question everything" is a hollow, lazy, overused phrase that says nothing but "I have zero commitment to putting actual content here."

like in the middle of his adventure he is seized by the compulsion to start grabbing everyone and everthing he sees and subjecting them to an incompetent interrogation? including himself in the mirror with a head lamp?

@001zlnv That's different and you should pursue this example as soon as possible :) There is ALWAYS an exception for satire in my world. :)
