Saltines and Jello. Not that strange.

I have never heard of “throwing shade” to mean anything like “offering cover or protection.” A quick google search shows it’s origins in Black and Latinx gay / drag community.

Reminds me of Patton Oswalt’s theory of Disney merging the Star Wars and Marvel universes:

How much are they spending on The Wheel of Time?

Okay, yeah that makes sense.

So I remember playing this like 25 years ago and loving it. And it’s been on my GOG wishlist for a while now, but I don’t have a joystick. Is the experience significantly impaired without a joystick?

It’s been awhile since I played any of the Diablos and I agree. I do think blue is pretty standard for something magical and gold is always an indicator that something is of great value (pretty much in all facets of life, not just video games), but that’s about it.

I never played past D2 and it’s been awhile since I’ve played D2, but I don’t even remember green or purple.

Along this line of thought, I hate weapons that degrade over time. In Diablo it wasn’t that big of a deal, but it was a major block for me to play Breath of the Wild.

A quote from GRRM about that original pilot in the link above: “The biggest thing was Dan and David called me up and had the idea of eliminating Rickon, the youngest of the Stark children, because he didn’t do much in the first book. I said I had important plans for him, so they kept him.”

I didn’t mind Wasteland 2, but I didn’t pay full price for it. Wasteland 3 is better then?

Yup. We used to have matryoshka measuring cups, which worked better than this probably worked, but even then they still weren’t as good as just regular measuring cups.

I certainly think farting and burping can express communicable content. We blow raspberries that imitate farts to communicate.

There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension was enjoyable on PC. I bet it makes a good port for the Switch.

In my experience novelty items are always worse than just find a proper form of the utensil or tool. The exception: a spoon rest. Get as crazy with that as you want, but everything is only going to make cooking less pleasurable for me because it will be doing its job in a less effective manner.

I remember that episode of DLM. The other comedian was Geoff Tate.

*increasing temperature

I’ve really gotten into the flavored seltzers over the past couple years, but I can’t stand LaCroix. I really enjoy Spindrift though.

I don’t mind the boost to ABV, but I’m less a fan of the increased volume. Already I feel like the last few sips of a White Claw are hard to get down. I attribute this to an exponentially decreasing temperature of the drink as well as the accumulation of backwash. I feel like these new ones might be hard to finish off…

I like the film alright, but let’s be real: it is a very specific taste. It lacks broad appeal. I imagine most people would find the movie extremely boring.
