To be fair, if you get invited to what is ostensibly a party on Halloween, then it’s expected that you should dress up unless it’s explicitly stated otherwise.
This dude was right and everyone else was wrong.

Having seen the entire run of the 80s show somewhat recently, Adam is at best a bad friend to Cringer and at worst downright abusive.
Like, Cringer has sapience. Full stop. He can talk and everything. Generally he just wants to stay home when Skeletor is up to something. Then Adam rolls by and transforms into He-man and then strips Cringers abnormal intelligence away, turning him into nothing more than a growling beast named Battle Cat that he can ride.

Gold is currently $126,228/ kilo, so assuming the price in the meme is correct its approximately 1:5.74

The part you remembered is the important part, you’re only missing the extra flourish. Overall that’s a much better outcome than the inverse

You joke, but I would absolutely play that
- Comment on Oppa oppa 2 weeks ago:
No, it just means that you believe that the artist’s intentions are more important than your own interpretation of a given work. It’s the other side of a philosophical debate about the meaning of “art” as a whole.
- Comment on Oppa oppa 2 weeks ago:
Death of the author is a thing.
Whatever meaning you derive from a piece of art personally is just as valid as the intended meaning

- Comment on Mina the Hollower has been delayed 3 weeks ago:
I would much rather the game be polished and good on release rather than put early. The demo was great so I trust the process.
Plus It’ll give me more time to finish Silksong
- Comment on Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions! 3 weeks ago:
God Hand is probably the most underrated game on the platform. Dont let the visuals or the crass humor turn you off. It’s made by Clover (the same devs behind Okami and Viewtiful Joe) and is mechanically deep to an absurd degree. Easily the best beat-em-up on the console.
- Comment on Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers? 3 weeks ago:
No. I don’t think The Boys would be an accurate portrayal.
I think it would be much worse. Like apocalyptic.
- Comment on Okay now what if I show you this image and tell you it's an actual conversation between me and my brother? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, pretty much, but not quite as hot so you can sit in it longer, and it’s not a social activity which is nice if you fall on the introvert side of things.
- Comment on Can anyone ELI5 the severity of this? Emerging Unity game vulnerability 3 weeks ago:
This is a pretty big deal and should be patched, but it’s not the worst case scenario. The worst case scenario would be if an attacker could do this remotely through your game.
Basically, if someone has the ability to change the shortcut on an end machine to specify additional arguments, your game could be used to run malicious code on that machine under the guise of your game, making detection harder.
The benefit is that modifying a shortcutis not an easy thing to do without tricking the user, or using an already established remote control of the endpoint.
However, this is still a vulnerability and one that should have a minimal impact if it were patched. You should install this patch if you make games with Unity.

Baths are fucking awesome though.
The only 3 arguments I’ve ever heard otherwise are:
- Baths are for girls and gays
Already a nonstarter if I don’t care about fitting into your fragile idea of masculinity
- You just can’t get clean sitting in a tub of dirty water
You’re supposed to shower first, baths are about relaxation not cleanliness.
- They’re a huge waste of water
This is a fair and valid argument, but if you limit it to be a special treat once in a while, then it’s really not that bad

There was also that time a prison guard lost a prisoner during a transfer, and because the punishment for such a crime was death, he released all his prisoners, became their leader, and overthrew the monarchy.

Did you get the apple Busch because you thought it’d be a special treat or did you get it because it’s February and it’s was on sale for half price?

Its a matter of scale. If labs went through pipette tips the same way that fast food joints went through plastic straws, they’d be banned too.

- Comment on Hollow Knight Sequel 'Silksong' Crashed Game Stores, as $20 Price Irks Competitors 1 month ago:
Honestly, I would’ve paid $60 for this game and still would be happy with it at that price point. The game is incredibly good, if a bit punishing.
The fact that it was only $20 means that this game is an incredible value prospect, and will likely reach a much larger audience as a result.
TC was in a lucky position because their first game was also incredibly popular and sold well enough that budget was probably never a concern, and not all devs have that luxury, but indie games are supposed to be like this. They’re supposed to be made for the enjoyment of the artform with lower scopes and lower budgets. They aren’t supposed to compete with the AAA space.

Worked out to yearly prices from the weekly cost, they are:
7*52 = $362
0.5*52 = $26
Or $29

If you want to entertain yourself you’ll carry a guitar with you.
This just guarantees that you’re going to hear Wonderwall by the white guy with a guitar at literally every party you go to.

Having experience with both, I can tell you that a safety razor is way easier to use than a straight razor, and gets you the same result in half the time.
- Comment on [minor spoilers] Promise Mascot Agency 2 months ago:
I bounced off of this game initially because I didn’t care for the mascot management aspect. I think I need to revisit it with adjusted expectations as most people love it so I must be missing something.
I much preferred their prior game, Paradise Killer.

Writing all the songs on the disc is amateur hour. You cant look at them while it’s playing to skip to the right track unless you know the CD perfectly.
It’s better to write it on the insert, even if it means you have to keep it in the case and not in a CD wallet
