Lay's potato chips Turkey Dinner flavor

This actually tastes pretty decent - not like turkey, but like Stove-top stuffing

Comic book run bundles

Comic book run bundle

I think more comic should do this - bundle complete runs of back issues together:

Lady making a raclette sandwich - the black boxes are heaters that warm the cheese, then they scrape off a warmed later of cheese into the sandwich with ham and pickles.

Church candles - suggested offering of $2

Church candles - suggested offering of $10 with a credit card reader

Is your prayer a $2 prayer or a $10 prayer?

The good stuff definitely seems to come in bursts and then disappear.

Good trade paperback haul from Ollie's

And also things like boardroom. The board was a table where council is held. Then board became a reference to the members of that council. Hence board meeting, board member, board of directors and very tellingly - chairman of the board.

The "board" in board games is the table. They are games played on a table.

This is also where "room and board" comes from, you get a room and a seat at the table (for food).

And also "above board". A deal that is above board was made above the table, rather than a sneaky deal below the table.

Grocery basket with 90 percent candy corn

This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu

A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.' The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross. The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'

You collect rubies and buy power-ups, fight enemies and bosses, choose which direction to exit rooms in, and get keys to unlock new rooms.

Just heard a radio station blank out the P Diddy line in the Kesha song.

TWERPS books

TWERPS is a multi-setting TTRPG like GURPS, but you only have one stat.

Game in play

Small World - of Warcraft.

Some interesting changes that increase considerations for positioning and holding locations. Good for experienced Small World players, but adds some hurdles for new players.

There is no appeasing fascists. "I'm going to let you put the boot on my throat, but just a little and just this once, ok?" is not negotiation.

I could envision a little bit going a long way with the berry flavoring.

Game Genie ad

When I say "the ad on the back of a comic book", which one do you picture? This one is mine.

Professor X *sliding resumé back to me*: thank you for your interest but I don't think this is what we're looking for

Professor X: I just don't think 'ability to always accidentally find the grossest gas station restroom in the county' will help us against the Sentinels
