The bad part of it was constantly having to go back to menu to equip and unequip the iron boots. That's an objectively bad experience. Thankfully, the 3DS port fixed that, and the water temple is great there.

Homer Simpson screaming "take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door” at Bartraven because the poem was about how Poe "fucking loved ravens".

All those kids talking about how Mobile Suits are just "sooo cooool", are all going to be old enough to serve in the Gryps Conflict.

Even though both of them have had significant content updates in the last year.

Man, they really did change what "it" was.

It's also kinda hard for people to be non-political when a big portion of this site's user base is having their ability to live viciously attacked, politically.

But without Yglasias types, who else can teach us that it's "nbd" when over a thousand people die in a factory collapse? I am never gonna forget that rancid ass take.

There is a place where leftists are not only derided but almost universally forbidden to ever speak or appear and it’s called every television news station in America, but for some reason that’s never been a problem for Matt Yglesias types

Soyo Oka is a vastly underappreciated composer.

In fact, I remember that someone published a profile about how he's was repeatedly and virulently racist towards Arab and Muslim women in particular a few years back, and there was immediate fierce push-back against it buy the "respectable" commentariat.

To cover the obvious, yes I checked spam.

Bought both Batman TAS and Beyond and didn't get an email. Hope things are alright.

For those unaware, Asmongold had a dead rat that he used as an alarm clock by the smell of it when the sun hit it.

Mr. Actual Dead Rat Alarm Clock calling anyone that word is beyond psychotic.

The picture of Harry touching the phasmid was my computer wallpaper for a couple years. Good lord that one hit hard.

And, yes, the Squid could absolutely have worked in the Watchmen movie. Lindelof was fucking right about that one.

Also, why the fuck did he have a VHS practically labeled "My Confession" that he loved to show everyone? I will say educating people about the Tulsa Massacre was a genuine good. And the Hooded Justice episode was great, if you can ignore who HJ actually was in the comic (those weedy themes).

I can explain, but it requires getting into the weeds with Watchmen, it's themes, and inspirations and "inspirations." Don't get me wrong, I love Jeremy Irons. I enjoyed watching him. But he was all wrong for Adrian Veidt.
comment in response to post
And ended on the moral that Regina King's character could handle the powers of Doc Manhattan because she is A Cop? There was some legitimate great things in that series, but what the fuck? Also, Jeremy Irons as Veidt was a miscast. You don't want to hear it. I don't want to say it. But it's true.

The Isekai genre is riff with this shit, where magic in a fantasy setting just happens to work exactly like a 16-bit JRPG. We really need to remind people that game mechanics are abstractions and not how a world would actually operate.

I was overwhelmed with delight on the very first frame of Hoth I knew exactly where that was going to go and it was glorious. Thank you for this.
