The correct answer is actually the TWO button. The playstation’s buttons are numbered. How do the Japanese “alphabetize” things? By stroke count. Now look at the playstation controller again. They’re one through four, not a bunch of random symbols. (They even read right to left, like Japanese text.)

Hopefully he will come near where we live, I would love to see him do a live show!

I feel like Lil Nas was supposed to be the next Mister Rogers and he somehow missed his calling and ended up as a terrible musician instead.

I think he’s riffing on how inescapable Old Town Road has become. (Assuming you ever do things like turn on a radio.)

I love Klefki! And also those sword pokemon, whose name I can never remember, despite having caught hundreds and hundreds of them in my quest for a shiny one. As other people have pointed out, it’s not like ALL pokemon bring the level of imagination to the table that you get with, say, bulbasaur or blastoise. Most of…

Wow. This was really good.

Keven Hart has enough money that he should be able to hire a team of people to figure out what the fuck is wrong with Kevin Hart.

That poor kid needs an aunt like me, who can tell her, “No, don’t be afraid! Clowns can sense fear! It attracts them!”

The responses to RGB on that one have been absolutely ridiculous. Like people are angry and disappointed that a supreme court justice believes in “innocent until proven guilty”. Of course she does! Believing in the law and upholding it is literally her life’s work! People are so freaking stupid.

That does sound related to Firestarter. But it is also obvious, particularly in Doctor Sleep, that King has discovered Japanese animation, so I will not be surprised if The Institute ends up falling into that same “post-anime” category. It is certainly a branch of storytelling that is obsessed with ruthless…

I tried Dark Crystal, but the gelfling faces were far too visually horrifying to keep going. Now I’m watching Kimetsu no Yaiba (Demon Slayer) and that’s been good so far. Carnival Row and Carole & Tuesday are up next.

I mean, the basic problem with most esports, and specifically Overwatch, is that “meta” is code for “we have no idea how to balance our game”. When one team wins the super bowl in football, the whole rest of the NFL does NOT immediately switch to playing the exact same style of football. No real sport does that, and…

Ok, I guess that makes enough sense, considering how unimpressed Farouk was with his former self. I can see why he would want to avoid the impending doubles match, if possible.

Farouk says “I have a proposition for you.”, which suggests some kind of trade with Charles, but then he just kind of helps and surrenders and I still don’t understand what Farouk got out of the apparent bargain they made at the astral table.

Your ability to recall visual details and dates about old video games is crazy. Maybe you have a permanent headache because your brain is just like, “please stop putting this weird stuff in my filing cabinets.”

Well, now that you tell me I’m not allowed to see it, I want to see it! Hopefully someone will leak the thing to torrent sites.

I was in Walmart this morning. The games department looks exactly like it always does. I don’t know what signs we’re even talking about, it’s not like Gamestop where you have to run an obstacle course of cardboard cutouts and promotional signage just to cross the store.

Freshman year of high school? Listening to a Violent Femmes album from the previous decade over and over and over, probably.

Thank you. Yes. This is the correct answer. I stopped partway through The Dark Half and didn’t read another King book for a decade. It’s only been in the last few years that I’ve gone back and read all the other stuff. It was so bad. So gratuitously self indulgent. Like King doing a caricature of King.

I only want to see signs depicting pokemon or Final Fantasy stuff, so I’m fine with this, regardless of their reasons.
