okay, it’s not just me. i didn’t understand a word either of them said, but that kind of makes it that much more charming

me: this show is cheesy, ridiculous, over the top, and often borderline nonsensical the way it jumps from one scene to another

also me: *presses next episode*

make up a fake school name and half the time people will run with it pretending to know where you’re from

listen, it’s illegal for you to show me things i want but can’t have.

i used to do stuff like that from time to time. my favorite thing to do was get blank cd/dvd inserts and just make my own custom art. sadly i don’t have anything that has survived to today, but at least i have the memories of making them.

my heart: i fear god and god alone

my head: those five year old kids that eat takis like potato chips scare the hell out of me

this game is an eyesore. i love it.

i had a dream last night where i was doing nothing but watching surrealist cat videos on my phone. shame they weren’t real, some of the were pretty good.

we discovered it’s a lot easier to do if you actually follow the instruction book as you go along.

if you’ve never played it, i recommend “hotshot racing.” it’s got that arcade racing feel, the computer opponents adjust to your driving style for better or worse (don’t get too aggressive or you’ll regret it), creative track designs, and so much personality. it’s not deep, but it’s very fun.

true story. there are at least *three* of these in cincinnati today, two white ones and an orange one. i’ve seen the two white ones in a car lot a few years ago and the orange one on a trailer last summer. i highly doubt i’ll ever see a roadworthy one.

thanks! hopefully i can leave another vague yet equally positive update six months from now. 😁

i got a used dvd box set from a local bookstore. the first two discs are unreadable for some reason, so i just jumped straight into the middle. it’s actually really good.* i’d say it’s better than most of the modern stuff.

*i’m also nostalgic for mid ‘90s tech and cars, so that tilts my opinion.

i enjoyed the first half a lot, when it was just a bunch of buddies going on adventures together. after it got serious in the second half, i feel like it quickly lost its spark.

of the modern stuff i’ve seen, ‘ultraman arc’ is probably the one i like best and it might be hard to beat for a while.

honestly, i think ‘godzilla 2014’ and ‘kong: skull island’ were the only two good films. objectively good. well shot, well written, well paced. ‘kotm’ wasn’t good, but it was at least fun. everything after is certainly worth skipping.

there are two problems with the seasonal red bulls and they both circle back to the fact that every last one is delicious.

a) they’re for a limited time and i miss them when they’re gone

and

b) my doctor says red bulls aren’t really all the great for men my age

pfft. what do doctors know though?

if there is one common theme between many of the mid 8 and 16-bit consoles it’s that the japanese cover art almost consistently blew away the american cover art. i will argue to my dying breath that the sega master system would have performed better in the states if the games had better cover art.

i’ve never even heard of this game but i would give it a shot for the cover art alone.

uhhh, i question the practicality of this particular technique

i hate to vague post, but i’m also a pretty private man. so let me just say that for the past two months my wife and i have been busting our asses off and i think by the end of this weekend it will finally have paid off for us.

i’m exhausted and sleep deprived, but also really, really happy.

i rewatched the ‘baby assassins’ trilogy. i loved the fight choreography and humor in the first two films and find them just as enjoyable as the first time around. the third film just isn’t for me though, i feel like the darker and more serious tone holds it back. all three are still pretty good.

millions will stream sunday’s super bowl without seeing this ad.

just posting to say two things

a) not dead, just very busy and very stressed

b) omg wtf y mor sno?!

I do not give a shit what other people think about me, as long as they like me and think I'm funny and smart, literally could not care less

And that's how you were made 👔

i think i’m the only person in all of cincinnati who is excited about the snow we’ve gotten this year. it’s going to be a heck of a mess when it all melts though.

The Cleveland Museum of Natural History posted this photo today, and I just really feel more people need to see it.
