If ther’s on thing I hat, it’s words ending with silent e’s. And whil we’r at it, we ned to get rid of doubl e’s as well.

Well I’m currently playing Armored Core 6, and I gotta hand it to em, there’s basically no story whatsoever. It’s just giant robots. And it’s pretty fantastic.

Ba ba ba bum! Two, Three, Four!

I can’t believe I actually counted.

As much as I really want another Chao Garden, I know the monkey’s paw would love to grant my wish. Imagine:

Chao garden. You get 2 chao to start out with. Want to access another garden? $2.99 each. Want more chao? $4.99 per egg. You could feed them the fruit that grows natively in your garden, which raises their stamina slowly, or buy more fruit at $0.99 each. Or buy a fruit tree seed for $9.99, what a steal! Need a pack of tiny animals? 20 for $8.99!

While I doubt SEGA would stoop this low… it’s not completely off the table.

Firstly, of course they’re not paying child support, because being a sovcit requires you to be an insufferable asshole first obviously.

Secondly, I mean, I don’t condone shady businesses practices or grifting. But man, whoever running that is an absolute genius. Scammer for sure, and while I hate scammers to my very core, something about scamming these people in particular feels so very poetic. Someone should maybe tell them, but man… this is funny.

honestly, hikigaya can be such an absolute chad sometimes

We have a word for that too in English: Tuesday

As a world leader in cybersecurity, recipient of a nobel prize, liquid billionaire, and hobbiest musician making #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, I agree.

I’m even jealous of that office. Their walls are blue! Mine are ugly beige.

one Bad Touch then please

What if it happened at night? Then we’d be fine, right?

Eh, somewhat disagree. I think some series have big potentials for spinoffs or side stories. The Disney Star Wars movies were terrible, agreed, but some of the shows are fantastic.

Marvel (and DC for that matter) is finicky. Comic books are, by their nature, extremely continuous, so there will always be more content to adapt. Whether or not it’s good or worth adapting is dependent on both the comic series and the producers’ capabilities, but that’s another issue.

I mean, I’ll give an example. The Last Airbender, fantastic show. It could have ended there and we’d all be satisfied. But The Legend of Korra, while not as great as TLA, was still (imo) very good. But the Last Airbender movie? Yeah, we all know it sucked hard.

I wouldn’t say writers should never ever look to make spinoffs or side stories to existing content, but obviously it should be good, and it’s demonstrably possible. Star Wars gave us The Clone Wars, Breaking Bad gave us Better Call Saul, and I mean on a somewhat relevant note, LotR gave us Shadow of Mordor, which I really liked. New, original content [edit: as a sequel to already existing content] can be good… but obviously, not always.

Whenever people ask me what engineering work is like, I always tell them I have no idea. I’m not an engineer; engineers drive trains, I’m just a poser.

K-On is one of my favorite guilty pleasure shows, and for some reason saying that now makes people suspect I’m a Nazi.

I ain’t letting them have this one. It’s a stupid show about high schoolers drinking tea and playing music, dammit.
