Not for a second would I ever believe that even the most eco-conscious person on earth is mailing their used toothpaste tubes back to Crest

at least duckduckgo kind of comes by its shittiness honestly, as opposed to google search which i know has been made shittier on purpose

Abby and I tried to go see You Can See Everything but there were no showings left with seats together not in the front row until tomorrow afternoon

The Super NT+ better have a death grip on the carts this time because the original connector is inexcusably loose. A breeze will knock the carts out of whack and delete the saves

I think I'm weird by normie standards but normie by a lot of my friends' standards. I would guess I determined that around twelve to fourteen years ago

QUESTION OF THE DAY: This sounds like a joke question, but it isn’t. If it doesn’t apply to you, fine. But it’s a serious question with different levels of meaning. And I am genuinely curious. When did you first realize you were weird?

I would never have played what are now among my favorite games (Earthbound, Chrono Trigger) if I only played games personalized to my preferences. And now that I prefer those games I absolutely don't want games that imitate them

maybe i'm old fashion but the coolest thing about video games is being taken to new worlds that i hadn't thought up and experiencing something exciting that the artists behind the game want to show me

This is regarding a local high school principal who lost his wrongful dismissal case. Yeah, I think we'll remember

Second consecutive rotten night of sleep. My now-annual post-nasal drip sickness has come early this year

Weighing getting Fortune's Weave now or just asking for it for Christmas. But generally speaking I'm surprised I don't see more people talking about it, and I don't know what the opinion is on the ground

I also just ordered Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, having never played any of those games, so I may be more inclined to wait for that to get here and maybe try to read a little more

My conclusion after several months sleeping on the mattress I got from a friend is that it's kind of uncomfortable. So I'm considering buying an all-new mattress for the first time in my life

The Liberty Mutual ads piss me off not just because they fail to be funny but because my experience with Liberty Mutual was fucking awful so it's like seeing the worst person you know trying to make jokes

i hate this sick fuck and i want to kick him into traffic

Game Boy pickups are inceasingly rare for me, but I did find Namco Gallery Vol. 3 today, a collection of a number of lesser-known Namco titles (Sky Kid, Tower of Babel, Family Tennis, Jantaku Boy) apparently with good Super Game Boy support

I also remember Toby having a series of like six fakeout business cards that he handed one after another to Daisuke Amaya upon meeting him

A friend found one of my business cards from 13 years ago

My review of the Kindergarten alphabet banner: A: Apple. Fine B: Bat. Mediocre C: Cat. Fine D: Dog. Anodyne so far but fine if that's what you're doing E: Ed?? Are you fucking kidding???? There are a billion better choices than a guy with his name on his shirt F: Fun. A bit abstract G: Game. Sure

S: Snake. Fine, but at this point I feel like you should have committed to animals or not T: Top. Good U: Up. Too abstract. Kids will think "arrow." Why not go with the classic umbrella V: Van. It's just a car. W: Wind. You don't have to choose an invisible object you know

X: Fox. Sigh. Maybe it makes more sense to teach kids X this way and not overburden them with a word like xylophone but I don't like it Y: Yellow. A crayon? Deeply lazy Z: Zebra. Why not. You gave up five letters into this anyway

H: Hat. Okay I: Itchy. Making it a monkey is confusing J: Jug. Maybe not the most common object for a kindergartener but okay K: Kite. Great L: Lamp. Sure. Very clipart though M. Man. I guess that's okay.

N. Nut. Would have preferred something other than a peanut for a few semantic reasons O: Octopus. Stylistically very different from the cat and dog P: Pan. Pretty boring Q: Queen. I don't think you really need to pair it with the U but I'm not the expert R: Rat. Too easily confused with a mouse
