I saw Bio-Dome before I ever saw Blue Velvet. In Bio-Dome there’s a scene where Pauly Shore and Steven Baldwin get high on nitrous and Pauly Shore has a line where he says, “I’m Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet! ‘Oh, I’m slutty! Oh, I’m slutty!’”

My backlog on GOG alone is about 14 games (double that if you count all the old classics that I bought but never got around to playing).

I thought the McDonald’s one was exceedingly boring. I’m not much of a burger guy, so I guess it’s nice to have that option now if I end up going to McDonald’s, but I would still probably prefer regular or spicy nuggs.

I already like their Spicy Crispy Chicken sandwich (even if they do drown it in mayo). And the main reason I like it, is that it’s spicy because of the seasoning and batter it’s cooked in.

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.
