It’s kind of Shadowrun with the serial numbers filed off, so hypothetically you could do something interesting there.  So some people might have hoped that the things that made the first one suck was “Max Landis” and “it’s Copaganda for no reason.”

Sure, but if someone has an egg allergy you probably know this about them and aren’t baking them a cake. If allergens are a major issue (I’m allergic to shellfish) some part of vigilance lies on the person eating it, since ambiguous things like “sauce” aren’t always going to come with their ingredients list fully…

I always figured “secret ingredient” meant like you were putting mayonnaise in your cake, putting fish sauce in barbecue sauce, or coating your chicken in milk powder before you grill it for better browning.

The standards for “what constitutes too good” for Borderlands are mysterious. There were several near-instant kills for raid bosses that made it all the way through BL2 which were apparently fine.   The solution to “Salvador can be made almost literally invincible” was “well, don’t play him if that’s not fun for you.”

The only previous Borderlands game that could be accused of actual maturity was “Tales from”.  1, 2, the Pre-Sequel, and 3 were rated ‘M’ but were absolutely not mature.

I mean, there’s a reason all the NFTs now are ugly procedurally generated profile pics, since you can churn out thousands of those easily and if the Delusional Dingoes don’t go over well, you can just move on to the Emboldened Emus.

I mean, when Marvel Comics needed to prevent DC from securing the trademark for “Captain Marvel” a character created by Fawcett in 1939 and acquired by DC in 1972, they actually had to keep releasing various books titled “Captain Marvel” even though nobody really cared about Mar-Vell, Genis-Vell, Phyla-Vell, Khn’nr,…

There is no excuse for not putting the Muppets in Kingdom Hearts.  None.

I refuse to play D&D with any level of technology that requires electricity.

I confess, before the pandemic one of my great pleasures in life was just wandering the grocery store and seeing what there is and trying to figure out what I could do with it. Even in these increasingly precedented times, I do still like perusing just to see what looks good.  I would be sad if there was a grocery…

I caught the single about the dying cat on the radio the other day, now I can’t listen to the radio for a while for fear of ugly-crying.

I wonder if I could replace the veggie topping with basically esquites.  You’d substitute a serrano for the green pepper, green onions for regular onions, and cotija for the mozzarella but it’d be basically the same thing.

How long did it take people to figure out the Unkempt Harold was the best gun in Borderlands 2?  Other contenders like the Sandhawk and the Interfacer came later.

An edit button is stupid.  Just delete the tweet and repost it.

I think the real reason that deep dish is a subject of contention is that proper deep dish pizza dough should be laminated, like pastry. Which is a difficult thing to do in a hot kitchen or scale. So deep dish shouldn’t be omnipresent, then it isn’t as good.

I’m not sure how I would even locate an influencer if I was interested in being influenced.

The only context where it’s easier to use voice controls than your hands is when you can’t use your hands for something.  If you’re already holding a phone, you can just go to the website and select “Pineapple, Canadian Bacon, and Jalapenos” from the dropdown or radio button interface.

I wonder if you could load the mold with pork, vacuum seal the sucker, then sous vide it in the molds.

In terms of a marketing opportunity, E3 was pointless anyway because we have copious information that video game fans will tune into watch a livestream about new games even if all the people aren’t livestreaming from the same physical location.

I’m not sure I’ve seen any of the 37 movies he was in after MOONRISE KINGDOM, but that’s a good way to remember the end of his career I reckon.
