That’s actually probably the part that bothered me the most, really. Rather than going with an original story or a straight remake of any of the previous stories, they went with a “greatest hits” compilation with a loose narrative tying things together. It simultaneously had no new ideas and failed to really deliver

I mean, you don’t have to. Just Google “lean pockets discontinued.” The first five results are from the Hot Pockets website, all from the customer reps, all stating that they’ve been discontinued.

The best flavors are being converted to HP flavors, so there’s that, but yeah.

Try searching for “Lean Pockets discontinued” on Google. Top seven responses, all from the HP website, all by customer service folks, all saying the same thing.

They’ve been shutting down for a few months now.

They have a frozen storage period of 14 months, and the most popular flavors are being rolled into Hot Pockets, possibly with tweaks.

Yep, the web page isn’t current, which shouldn’t surprise you. All the favorite flavors are being folded into Hot Pockets, and the rest are just gone.

No, it’s definitely a meme. All you have to do is look at the comments on this very post or on their Twitter feed.

I mean, it's more likely that your average Hot Pocket consumer is unlikely to want to go through the extra steps and/or have a toaster oven. If you listed every potential way of cooking a filled bread casket on the box, it'd probably not leave much room for the carefully designed imagery that convinces you it's a good

Now, that’s a tired meme. If you actually read the directions, they explicitly stated you need to let them sit for a bit after cooking. This is because of how microwaves work, cooking the exterior before the interior. Letting it sit evens out the heat.

That'd be difficult, given that Lean Pockets have ceased to be.

So, this doesn’t seem a bit off to anyone else? Depressed/isolated loner becomes a trenchcoat-wearing gun weilder? A bit too on the nose for school shooters for me.

No, the flat out missing animations means the game was unfinished.

Woof, you really pulled them out of the woodwork with that post. Shows just how on the nose it was.

So, no such thing as condoms, then.

Honestly, I don’t care about the reversibility part, but I’m too far away to get involved in the trials, which is annoying.

Do men not deserve the same right to decline to reproduce?

The issue with the politics of the Star Wars prequels was that they were extremely important to the story (in fact, pretty much the focus of the story), but were portrayed very poorly. Lucas was very good at directing an action scene or something exciting, but he desperately needed someone good at writing dialogue to

Nothing a light ink wash can’t fix.

The “Collection” is, but it’s largely a bundle of preorders at this point. The MCC as it currently stands is the front end and Reach, with the other games intended to be released slowly over time.
