I thought you were supposed to shout “Monopoly!” when you win.

Makes sense when you see their one national holiday when a billion people all want to travel on the same roads and China-scale traffic jams ensue.

Ah, so I see June 4th, but thankfully 5318008 isn’t there yet.

This makes me irrationally angry. Well done!

Is America projecting again? 好没想到的啊！

Pure Opera!

Oh yeah, no hate on the local specialties! I always looked forward going to IKEA as a kid, for the cardamom based pastries and such. But like… I can’t really imagine what a traditional Swedish cuisine restaurant would serve.

Saw a map today, on reddit or around here, showing the dominant kind of restaurants across european countries : local food or foreign food. And sure enough, most of northern and Eastern Europe prefers foreign food. Anyone who’s traveled around Europe will have a fairly good idea why.

All I’m saying is, the bit about food doesn’t work for all countries.

That was thirty four years ago or thereabout and I still remember the absolute panic of not being able to start the game I had just spent a year of pocket money on… The feeling when I found that bug was very similar, except I never found a way out.
Still, amazing memories!

Ultima Underworld.
Saved a whole year for that one. Took a whole day to figure out how to configure the EMM386 line that would enable me to have enough memory to run the damn thing (tears of frustration were shed).

Absolutely worth it. Blew my little mind. Never got to finish it though, because of a bug in the quest in the last level T_T

Haha yeah, that was my experience. “So how are you feeling?” “Yeah, I can feel the juice spreading through my system like I’m on fire. It’s pretty painful” and then I’m out.
That whole experience was a radical way to confirm my pain tolerance seems to be above average so I ain’t complaining, though. It’s a nice change from when I was a kid and having panic attacks at the thought of needles.

It’s from Aliens. It’s what the lady pilot says when the squad is taking off in their dropship.

Nothing odd about wanting to put Tim’s nose in his shit. The man is beyond oblivious.

I think once they realised they could sell skins for the price of full games, they were like “fuck it”. I think the only reason this works still is that they have a critical mass of kids who have no way to compare and don’t realise how much they’re getting fucked over.

But as younger generations are more and more aware earlier on, their business model is, perhaps, flailing. But of course they want to apply a business solution to the problem.

Colour me shocked. Incel ragebait on 4chan?!

Less porn. Most of it seems to be from Reddit copy bots. So I guess that’s the real effect we are going to notice.

We don’t need more people, we need more good content!

On Reddit? Apparently posts about it get nuked by mods. So of course people reposted even more.

Eight-ish? Dad of two nearing fifty so I guess I’m on par for the course.

One is discovered thanks to US memes is the dad uniform including New Balance. I bought some NB when I was in China and I have to say they really are comfy.

The one about awkward loads is hilarious to me. Because it really is true though. You can lift a shit ton more if you’ve a good grip! I can hardly lift a washing machine, but I can carry one on my back without issue.

I yearn to say “In the pipe, five by five” but I don’t have the right public for that quote :/

So when Canada does stuff, they get added to the list of Things Not To Do In War.
But Israel does shit and suddenly it’s all about cultural heritage and tradition and Lebensraum…
