This calls for Sean Connery

My personal favorite when I get really pissed off is “Jesus Christ on a pogo stick” because if it doesn’t lighten your mood to randomly imagine Jesus Christ jumping around on a pogo stick I don’t know what will.

Well in the example given with at least regards to the kids it isn’t. Refering to kids as monkeys is used in the context of them being wild and all over the place (often climbing on stuff). Generally that term stops as they get older. It also is used in that context as a term of enderament and not a slur or curse…

Agreed. I’ve been careful with the friends I cultivate over the years and even though I’ve lost my shit playing a game and I’ve seen my friends do it. We’ve never resorted to racist statements. If it’s not in your vocabulary to use the term in a normal context it won’t be there when you’re pissed off.

I may be getting my numbers wrong, it may be 4 on PSN. I’d have to boot up my PS3 again to check, I just remember that one of them was free.

I’m leaning now towards chronology as best I can based on what people are saying since it sounds like the story recaps are sufficient but if I care about experiencing the story…

As someone who loves the twists and turns the plots take in Yakuza it sounds like I should AT LEAST play 5 before 6 to get the full impact of that story then.

I am doing Haruka’s whims right now in Kiwami. And I now hate Koi Koi with a passion. That game is so obtuse if you can’t recognize or understand hands on the table readily. It’s like telling someone to play poker but they can’t recognize arabic numerals.

I’m not saying Koi Koi is a bad game - just that Yakuza assumes…

So I bought my copy today. It’s become one of the rare exceptions I make now for not buying new games.

But I’m not sure how long I should put off playing it. I first played Yakuza 0 only last November. And just beat Kiwami a few weeks ago. I have Yakuza 5 thanks to PS+ on my PS3 but I have no means of playing 2-4 in…

When they throw marketing brands at you I say switch over and start playing word dissasocation.

When they say Starbucks, I think of Godzilla. When they say L’oreal I think Tunak Tunak. Just throw out such uselss information that you being asked this doesn’t help anybody.

My parents didn’t want me to see it when it was out in theaters. Turns out that parenting decision made me a winner that year.

Reminds me of why Zangief is a bad guy in Wreck-it-Ralph. I remember one of the writers said when he was a kid and would play Street Fighter II in arcades he could never beat Zangief, so to him, Zangief became a villain and that’s why he wrote him there in the movies even though it’s against the story’s canon.

I don’t know, look what happens to one of their competitors when someone shuts off the game prematurely.

Different phone, has the date displayed the way many European and a few Asian countries do where the day is displayed before the month.

At this point we just set the clock to zero and unplugged it. Saves people the trouble of having to reset it.

Interesting, the only Darryl I know is white. . .and racist.

Meanwhile out here in southern California everybody will take multiple takeout bags if they’re left out in the open ever since the state started charging people for them at the grocery store.

It depended on the context. There were times I will admit it works because it’s Apu holding back disdain for a customer but most o fthe time it isn’t and it certainly isn’t how people use it like they used to use the “thank you , buh-bye” from SNL many years prior.

You’re correct on this IMO. The ramification of Apu was the fact that tons of people were just quoting him because they found his accent and the things he said hilarious. This RARELY had anything to do with the content of what he said but was more due to the accent itself.

“Thank you come again” or “Would you like a…

This is pretty fair - as Chinese I get driven crazy when people tell me what I should be offended over. Hell, I’m more annoyed when I see articles on io9 and gawker that complain about a lack of asians in hollywoold and just say any given asian will do when the story is derived around one particular ethnicity (the…

To be fair it has kind of been this way for at least the last two main titles. FFXIII came out in 2009 and its final part came out in 2013 technically giving that world and story a 4 year cycle.

Trouble development aside XV looks like much the same except they plan on building onto it with dlc rather than direct…
