But the driving is terrible and so is the AI and so are the tracks
That’s my opinion of Wii, but Wii also introduced bikes which have also stained each subsequent entry so it gets my vote for the worst in the series.

Wii, Super Circuit, and 7 exist, so your argument doesn’t hold water.
Sure it isn’t Double Dash, but it’s definitely not the worst.

I still occasionally burn CDs, whenever I need new music in the car that doesn’t require my phone. Last time was last year.

They repeat the tone we respond to the most.
I once had a cat that learned to imitate my text message notification sound (at the time it was Tiny Tina saying “pooow”) just to get my attention. He would also scream his lungs out if he thought no one was home.

Late 70s would fall in Gen X.
Millennials start at around '85 depending on who you ask.
Generations seem to be nore vibes-based than anything.
- Comment on Recommendations for "girly" games? 1 week ago:
Unpacking, it’s a relaxing puzzle game with some great environmental storytelling. Gameplay amounts to unpacking after various times moving house throughout a woman’s life. It’s really interesting to see how the different stages of her life are shown by the different living situations she moves into.

I played that as well. Very cozy and relaxing.

Of course I do. My goal while driving is to be predictable so I can minimize the chances of causing an accident.

They funded MKUltra for 20 years and only discovered a couple new torture methods that aren’t any more effective than the ones they already used. Don’t underestimate the US government’s ability and willingness to waste money.

Speaking from first hand experience: try growing a handlebar mustache (if you can). If you groom it well you will get complimented all the time. I’m a fairly generic looking guy without the stache, and almost never got complimented on my looks before I grew it.
- Comment on Fox Picks Up Four Seasons Of ‘The Simpsons’, ‘Family Guy’, ‘Bob’s Burgers’ & Returning ‘American Dad’ In Mega Deal With Disney TV Studios 5 weeks ago:
Well they have the song from, I think, “Behind the laughter” that goes “you’ll never stop The Simpsons, have no fears we’ve got stories for years”.
Also in the 138th episode spectacular Troy says “Who knows what adventures they’ll have between now and the time the show becomes unprofitable” and we apparently haven’t hit that point yet.
- Comment on What are some lesser-known obscure TV series that went under the radar, that you would recommend? 5 weeks ago:
Because I’ve never met anyone else who ever watched it and I haven’t been able to pirate it:
An action/comedy police procedural about a unit of the Chicago PD that manages cryptids (called “Links” in the show). A little bit like a terrestrial MIB.

Sealab 2021 is classic Adult Swim. Same with Venture Bros. Love them both!

She’s not the only Simpsons voice on the show either. Hank Azaria (who plays Jay) also voices somewhere around 1/3 of male Springfield citizens including Moe, Chief Wiggum, and dozens of others.

It would be the same if they were owned by Activision or Ubisoft or EA. That’s just the industry right now.

What’s your point? What makes Embracer different than any other gaming conglomerate?

DRG Survivors is innovative enough for what it is. More importantly it’s well-made and a fun addition to the world of DRG. Does it reinvent the genre? No, but it does some interesting things with its different challenges so it stays fresh for longer than most bullet heavens.

In the medical community this is called a “reach around” and it’s considered common courtesy.
- Comment on What’s a movie nobody can convince you is good? 1 month ago:
Office space is also good, Wes Anderson movies tend to be a little up their own ass for my taste. Zoolander works as a better comparison due to the intelligence level of the characters being about the same as Talladega Nights while the quality of the writing is much higher.
- Comment on What’s a movie nobody can convince you is good? 1 month ago:
IMO good comedy is more than stupid people acting silly, that’s an incredibly reductive view of the genre. Comedy should be clever and play to more than just the basest impulses. Even a comedy about stupid people can be smartly written. An example brought up in this thread is Zoolander. It’s silly and absurd, but it’s also smart, even though the characters are stupid. Talladega Nights is just stupid.

Ben Stiller wrote, directed, and starred in it. He’s good when he’s not doing mid-tier family movies (although I remember him being great in Heavyweights). Similarly, Tropic Thunder is a brilliant movie that he wrote, directed, and starred in.
IMO he’s really good when he’s allowed creative control, which he wasn’t for any of the Night at the Museum movies.

Are you serious? I just told you.
- Comment on What’s a movie nobody can convince you is good? 1 month ago:
Zoolander is a great movie.
Mugatu isn’t a starring role and Will Ferrell plays the part well. If he was playing Zoolander the movie wouldn’t be anywhere near as good.
- Comment on What’s a movie nobody can convince you is good? 1 month ago:
Hollywood is self-centered and loves movies about Hollywood. That’s really the only reason La La Land was in the running.
- Comment on What’s a movie nobody can convince you is good? 1 month ago:
Almost all of Will Ferrell’s movies, but especially Talladega Nights, a stupid movie about stupid people doing stupid things according to a stupid script. It’s one of two movies I’ve ever walked out on (the other being Split, which is just gross). Stranger Than Fiction is the only good movie with Will Ferrell in a starring roll.
