Those are over ear closed backs with thicc pads, no way are those going to be comfortable to one ear. Some Grados, maybe, but again the more important thing is hearing things in the room, not the game.

You wanna be able to hear if your partner needs anything. Ear buds would at least mean that they can only put one in at a time.

I can see bringing the Deck, like you might be sitting there for at least 24 hours, you don’t need to be sitting there holding their hand the whole time…
But the keyboard? The mouse? The HEADPHONES? It’s not like you’re in an extended stay. You’re getting that baby out and going. You don’t need all that.

It’s great value peanut butter. It is easier to clarify that as a semi solid oil than actual peanut butter. Feel free to be jealous but that’s not ‘good’ peanut butter. It’s better than nothing but only just.
- Comment on Hulu quizzing about the ads played 2 months ago:
I cancelled Prime over a year ago and for some reason I still get “Prime” delivery. I don’t get the games, movies, or Twitch stuff but if I order something it shows up faster than when my partner does.
So, I don’t hate that about Amazon… Everything else keeps me from ordering there unless there’s no other options.

Mr. Noodle, are you not familiar with the abomination that is the cursive n?

The pockets are alone to give away that Hostel guy is wearing a “field jacket” cotton blend while Agent 47 is wearing a ECWCS cold/wet weather top. He could have two jackets and all that but they’re different jackets.

I mean, the woman who was right next to the CEO understandably freaked and bolted but yeah.

Alright Randy Newman, take out your insecurities on them.
- Comment on How long do you think we'll keep seeing "formerly Twitter"? 4 months ago:
If we say that the accepted pronunciation of “X” is “ex” then we run into an even bigger problem than Prince’s logo.
“Ex” User says… Is this a former user of the website or current?
A user on the website “ex” is too long winded and sounds like I’m saying a hypothetical.
Users on “ex” - although shorter, X is a street name for ecstacy and user is sometimes used as shorthand for drug user (e.g. User and abuser) so why should we be listening to a cracked out party kid?
The golden ticket is “formerly Twitter” because we actually know what the fuck that one is.
I’m willing to bet there’s at least one X user on X right now.

How long was Prince “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince”?
Yeah, the rest of his life.
Twitter probably will have the same laid upon it.

- Comment on [Discussion] Someone should have gotten sued over Kangaroo Jack for deceiving trailer 5 months ago:
How you gonna “or whatever it’s called” and get the title perfectly right? Like call it “Stallion of the Cinnamon Rolls” or something at least.
And it’s not a terrible movie. It’s certainly a kids movie but of all the trash out there for kids, it’s nowhere near the worst. Pull up Netflix and we can find at least twenty worse titles.

I paid $3.50 to see a band a few months. Granted, I got a discount but the tickets were about $25 regular.
- Comment on PS5 Homescreen Now Replaces Unique Video Game Art With Annoying Ads You Can’t Turn Off 5 months ago:
I’m still using a 1070ti and hitting stable 60fps with newer games. Medium to low settings, usually but most slow down comes from poor optimization since I’m running a 12th Gen and regularly see medium usage on both GPU and CPU.
- Comment on How do I know if a medical issue should be addressed by a Clinic Visit, Urgent Care, or the Emergency Room? 5 months ago:
Called once to ask, they said go to urgent care.
Then billed me for a telehealth visit and also the Urgent Care billed me too.
- Comment on In honor of the start spooky season (yay!), I have a question about an apparently beloved spooky meme/skit. What about "David S. Pumpkins" is so funny? 5 months ago:
SNL is very much a combination of both humor from two years ago and next years mainstream. So many of the skits are built in the gap of “what have I seen lately that’s funny so I can quickly write” and “this will be twice as hilarious in a few years.”
So, SNL is usually pretty meh because you either like current humor and the ‘future’ stuff doesn’t hit or you don’t like current humor and that doesn’t hit.
- Comment on Wait a minute, we've been going about this all the wrong way! 5 months ago:
Didn’t have precision munitions back then. Didn’t have drones that can monitor the battlefield from across the globe and provide real-time video feeds.
Besides, in this case, Israel is playing Germany’s role.

I dunno if I could manage to spend $30 just to be reminded of something that’ll be forgotten by December…
Are you sure you’re not a Sony Psyop to get us all to buy Concord merch to help recoup the loss?
- Comment on Falling Down (10/10) Movie CLIP - Fore! (1993) HD 6 months ago:
This was a movie that I’d seen one day and promptly forgot the name of it. I tried in vain to find out years later. I asked my mom and she had no idea what I was talking about. I asked everyone and no one even knew. I was convinced it was a fever dream or something.
Until I heard Tech N9ne’s Everybody Move and he said “Falling Down like Michael Douglas” and it was a core memory unlocked and I finally got to watch it again.
It was every bit as good as I remember.

- Comment on Anon has their wisdom teeth removed 6 months ago:
I was high after a dental procedure, proceed to take a nap on the couch all day.
A few days later, a Japanese copy of Kirby Tilt n Tumble arrived on my doorstep.
Which is good that there isn’t much text in that game but odd because they then added it to Switch Online shortly after…

I learned to sneeze like that long before dabbing was a thing and it wasn’t until someone commented that I just dabbed on them that it connected those dots.
Regardless, I still sneeze in my elbow.
- Comment on I just got out of the shower. what is with the product placement ? 7 months ago:
I’m not going to pretend Folger’s is some fine luxury brand. I’m not going to pretend it’s even good coffee. It’s fine. Not great but fine.
Is it shit? No, get your ratios right and it’s fine. It’s cheaper and better than a Starbucks cup. If you’re going for black coffee, you can do worse.
- Comment on well if you look at it that way 7 months ago:
If they wanted to target him, they’ve got the whole Post-apocalypto mini series where they kill Don Jr. with a machine gun after killing his KKK Nazi guards, so one joke is just adding to the pile of reasons he’ll be drawn and quartered by them.

- Comment on $500 aluminum version of the Analogue Pocket looks like the Game Boy’s final form 8 months ago:
This is Analogue’s response to WulffDen’s video on the people who make the aluminum reshell for the Pocket.
Look, the Pocket is a great device for it’s MSRP and not a dollar over. I love having one but it’s not worth any of the “exclusive” editions.
