I enjoyed the first one as stupid fun, but based on the godawful animated series that Brooks went all in on a few years ago, I have zero interest in a sequel.

There are several foods I think about at least once a month: my mother’s lasagna, the Holiday Sandwich from Earl of Sandwich, the cheeseburger pizza from a local pizzeria long since closed, and that chicken flavored PAC-Man pasta.

I don’t know if this helps or not, but if you have a PlayStation and their PlayStation Plus subscription, you can play Blue Prince for free…

I used to love Nerds as a kid, but they fell out of favor with me as I grew older. That said, Nerd Gummy Clusters are my favorite gummy candy hands down and probably in my top 5 favorite candies.

My brother and I were raised by a single mother, and she made sure that whatever we were interested in doing, band, theatre, art, sports, we had the means to do it. Didn’t think about it then, but doing the same for my daughters now makes me realize and appreciate how much she sacrificed to do that.

Call of C’Thulhu or Delta Green. I want the spooks!
I’ve also got the Red Dwarf RPG and an old one called Underground, both look really fun too.

I feel that way with a lot of games lately. Looking at skill trees make my old gamer brain cry. Turned me off of the God of War games and Veilguard. I’d really like an easy mode just for leveling up so I don’t feel like I need multiple spreadsheets to figure it out.

I like the word “slapnuts”. I stole it from pro wrestler Jeff Jarrett. It’s vaguely threatening, works for a variety of situations, only slightly NSFW, and is just plain fun to say.

I heard one of the cards from Food Chain Magnate tipped off the Detective cards in Deception: Murder in Hong Kong where he was.

When American Airlines confirmed my 11am flight return flight, they decided I what I really wanted was a 7am flight so that I had to get up at 4 am on the last day of my vacation. 😑

I second No Thank You Evil. My girls had a lot of fun with it and you can very easily tailor it towards your child’s interests. They also enjoyed Adventure Maximus, but I don’t know if that one is still in print.
