news reporter: so you really saw an alien and aren't just saying that to get on tv?
me with better haircut than usual: yeah that's right

Hate when the preflight safety stuff tells you to leave your bags in an evacuation. Then you’re stranded and you’ve got no shirts

Same. My eyes get too squinty

If your profession wouldn’t make sense in the Gilligan’s Island theme song—professor, movie star, Mary Ann—then it’s not a real job.

I still laugh about the whole absurdity of this sort of tag team article between me and @oldtvreference.bsky.social, but I mostly laugh at the claudell statue photoshop by @sorrywrongjoe.bsky.social paletteswap.site/different-co...

Dominick the Donkey is the perfect Christmas song. It has it all:
-A made up folk hero
-fun sound effects
-an insane pronunciation of “Brooklyn”

A beautiful finger delicately holds a fortune from a fortune cookie which reads Seek professional help when your mental health needs it

What kind of fucked up fortune is this

Wonder why the movie switched it up

Either way, we’re still down a witch afaik

Does any Oz stuff ever address that the South is the only cardinal direction without some sort of witch? Maybe she has a jug band idk

Unpopular opinion but I don’t really love Beatles 64. It’s such a slog to have to go back to the old courses after unlocking Ringo to collect the blue bananas and blueprints

Please be careful out there today. The scent of a pie cooling on a windowsill nearly carried me into oncoming traffic

What’re some essential Thanksgiving movies/TV specials?

Btw if you name your dog after a star from the 70s because they both have a blind left eye, you’re gonna have to explain the name pretty much every time someone meets your dog because it’s a much more niche fact than you thought

In Paper Mario: The Origami King, Koopa Troopas are shown to be explicitly religious, using words like "worship" to describe their activity and "god" to describe the object of that worship. This is distinct from usual Mario spirituality that revolves around "wishes". It it possible that this is harkening back to a single dedicated sprite of a Koopa Troopa praying to Statue Mario in the ending of Super Mario Bros. 3, 32 years prior. As modern Paper Mario games often reference that game, this could be a deliberate reference.

In Paper Mario: The Origami King, Koopa Troopas are explicitly religious, which is very rare for the Mario franchise. This might be a reference to an idea first proposed by Super Mario Bros. 3 32 years prior, whereby a Koopa Troopa was shown praying in the game's ending.

We’ve all been so focused on the stuff the Oreo people are doing that Reese’s has been getting away with some real weird shit in the peanut butter cups

Rip Van Winkle is a great story because it’s just “what if the greatest guy you ever met took a really incredible nap”

Yabba dabba doo

And it’s just huge turkey legs

Got My Dinner with Andre and My Giant mixed up and spent way too long waiting for the big guy to show
