FWIW my understanding is the “Off”-ness is just decreasing theatre size, but gets (mis)construed as less prestige/fame/quality etc. Fame is probably fine for construing, but prestige/quality is orthogonal.

Would me lying about doing impressions for YourNetworkIsHaunted’s cat be enough? I both dont know the cat and didnt actually do impressions? (Brb gotta update my dating profile).
