There are better sober games and there are better drunk activities than Munchkin.
If you're at a point where you're having fun with Munchkin you'd be having fun without it as well...

After seeing what the scenarios with different win conditions looked like I am GLAD most were just "kill all monsters".
As for session length we always played just a single scenario (unless we lost the first super quick). It took us a good year maybe one and a half to play through the campaign. IMO the problem is less the session length and just how much of a time hog this game is in general. We're talking 150+ hours dedicated to a single game.
As a Swiss person I would like to apologize for that woman's "English".
Busses have their uses. Lots of commentor have mentioned the flexibility in setting up / changing routes. But there's also the flexibility in sizes. You can start a line with a large van or small mini bus and your only overhead is the driver. From there you can scale that up according to demand up to frequently run articulated busses. Meanwhile your minimum investment for tram includes at the very least a not inexpensive track installation.
Don't get me wrong. If you have the passenger volume that investment definitely pays off. But I don't like this unnecessary competition between two modes of transport that can be very complimentary to each other and are both better than individual cars.

Humanity has a long tradition of lightening the mood in dark situations with (sometimes inappropriate) humor. Internet memes are simply one of the newer iterations...

Republicans are probably fully on board with these new charges. I hear they have quite the obsession with former white house residents deleting stuff that pertains to the government from private systems...

Uhm. GoT isn't exactly the first to use this expression...
Very interesting but the article - for me - was too scarce on details of this farming system so I took to google. For anyone who wants a TLDR: This is basically a combination of "forest farming" and "terraforming/re-wilding"
- forest farming uses a mix of different plants with different grow heights so the available are isn't just fully utilized in 2 dimensions but the third as well. This mixing avoids many issues with monocultures, and better protects the ground against the sun.
- the second aspect is using different stages of plants, first to reclaim dead land with primitive but hardy "pioneer" plants, follow them up with "bioaccumulator" plants that have higher needs but are excellent at enriching the land with biomass before culminating in plants that have the highest needs but also support the most diversity and are most productive.
A good expression for the situation. Wingspan's success is definitly to a large part because of it's accessibility. Every problem you have (no cards, food, eggs) has an immediate, guaranteed and obvious solution. Everything you CAN do improves your position. And if you play on the blue side there is barely any direct competition in the game. There's no way to shoot yourself in the foot. There is no requirement to plan ahead.
But it does have some potential to plan ahead, optimize and compete for those who want to.
It also doesn't fall into any of the typical setting tropes like fantasy or sci-fi that might put some people off. It's production values are pretty enough to catch some eyes.
