You could tell they see this as the last "traditional" FF, it's like a coda to the series full of little references

Now I feel like we just need a release of X/X-2 that has X-2 on cart instead of a download code

As a Mets fan I'm ambivalent to the series except for the parts where one or both teams are miserable like this.

Was gonna say there was a distressing lack of elimination in this day full of elimination games but if I had to pick one it would be the Zionist Charlie Kirk memorializing team whose fans booed the Canadian anthem

I think I rented Bubsy like 3 or 4 times from Blockbuster and there was some dissonance when I found out as an adult his legacy as a character is "guy whose games are trash"

someone painted the MtG logo on the van and just didn't get around to painting over all the TMNT stuff with Chandra yet

Kindred formally came back with the new type name on the Eldrazi support in Modern Horizons 3.

Supernatural detective procedural with a couple minutes of bug judo at the end of each ep, and occasionally some sick motorcycle tricks

VGP sources from all over the place. They also have Fantasy Life i which was only physically released in Japan.

I was at a restaurant in the DC area and a vegetarian friend ordered "cauliflower steak" and it was just a big ass piece of cauliflower singed on the florets. Who did Big Cauli pay off to get this kind of treatment.

shoutout to my one coworker about 15 years ago when I told her my sister is autistic and she fired back "and what, you think you're not?"

Edge is especially stupid because he has legit acting credits and an actual Emmy nomination as Adam Copeland.

But also part of me feels like he deserves it for trying to force everyone in AEW to call him the closest thing he could make sounding like Edge out of his legal name

This was the vibe I got too. It's like Kpop run a second time through the American pop production machine. Super processed like some kind of ultrasoda or hyperfast food.

Dropped my water bottle on the floor and the noise and vibration apparently made Copilot pop up on my Windows laptop (or I just brushed a key at the wrong time). They are really desperate to get you to use these AI tools.

For some context the Dept of Transportation states there are TWO HUNDRED MILLION personal automobiles in the US but sure let's get rid of asthma medication

Even in the best case it's just not that compelling to read a very American-centric and highly editorialized view of console RPGs.

Aside from the author being a grifter it looks like this book was also horribly sourced and edited. I love my JRPG book from bitmap but if this is the quality of work and author that passes muster with them then I guess I'm done buying their products.

the pages of citations to places like fandom for images that are decidedly not Creative Commons licensed are hilarious in a "this fucking sucks" kind of way

Tech bros exist because actually smart people like Goodall hate bullshit artists like Elon Musk so they had to invent a new class of fake smart person to make them feel important

I was in Europe at the heyday of the SCG tour and I have a lot of fond memories of staying up til like 3am for the ends of a Legacy open and then shuffling back in to work on Monday.

Plus the addendum that there were some number of people who supported but were too scared to lose revenue streams. Cowards who are happy to just contribute to the anonymous stochastic discomfort.

Every arcane void can take you anywhere and it's still believable that it's all connected. You can be at the bottom of the sewer or drowning in oil or standing at the top of the world staring at the sun and it's all still part of the inside of Gruntilda's lair.

I was thinking about this in the context of Igavanias where like, you know you're always in a castle so it's the game's job to find ways to surprise you with the environments knowing they are mostly things you expect to be in a Dracula lair. But BK does not care about this at all and it's great
