I’m just your average Canadian wolf. I’m a siren enthusiast and railfan as my main hobbies. I run the Civil Defense Sirens Wiki, and am working on restoring a few vintage sirens (such as a FS&S Model L and a rare Sterling Siren MOD. F) as well as a 1970s Safetran mechanical crossing bell.

Same with unskippable cutscenes, especially before a difficult boss. It’s no fun to have to sit through it over and over if I’m struggling with said boss, or have to sit through a cutscene I’ve seen several times in previous playthroughs. This also applies to the game’s credits.

Speaking of gen 5, here’s a very strong sun team I’ve crafted up in Volt White 2 Redux: Sunflora with Drought for setting up sun, Sawsbuck as my Chlorophyll sweeper, Volcarona as a Quiver Dance sweeper, Victini as a Choice Scarf revenge killer and scout, Excadrill for rapid spinning Stealth Rocks away and tanking hits, and Emolga for paralyzing threats and abusing Volt Switch. Even the water gym didn’t stand a chance!

Renegade Platinum’s the way to go. There’s much more pokemon variety, the trainers are stronger and smarter, and there’s plenty of QOL fixes that make it feel more modern.

They think they’re some unique “alpha”, meanwhile they all adopt the same exact look: A camo-covered outfit, Oakleys, and the douchiest haircut you can think of. Zero individuality.

Religious people are taught from birth to blindly believe what is told to them by authority figures and to take things on faith instead of thinking critically. It’s no big surprise that people like that are easy to manipulate and prone to worshipping said authority figures.

Needs at least 2 more broken down parted-out pickup trucks or cars, several dozen Trump and America flags, and much more random junk all over the lawn. Bonus points if none of said vehicles or junk have moved in years.

- Comment on Pizza Hut falls into administration with 68 restaurants at risk 5 weeks ago:
The Pizza Hut here where I live is rather depressing. It’s still open somehow, but I never see anyone go inside and the parking lot is always empty and somewhat overgrown. Seems they mainly survive by doing delivery orders, I guess. There’s way better pizza in town so there’s not much appeal to getting PH.

Okay! I’ll make sure to blast my sirens at my neighbour next time he leafblows. That totally won’t get me in any trouble whatsoever lmao

Did anyone ever actually use those things? I never bothered in any of my playthroughs.
- Comment on PUT THE TRAINS IN THE BAG 2 months ago:
Oh, probably. And at the very least the Colorado museum also has the Delhi wigwag which does still work thankfully. The IRM has a ton of really cool crossing signals too for sure.
- Comment on PUT THE TRAINS IN THE BAG 2 months ago:
I’m really hoping the Colorado museum gets their wigwag fixed one of these days. Poor thing lights up but doesn’t swing, probably needs new electromagnets.

We had the Food Pyramid here in Canada, which is very similarly a lie pushed by the dairy and grain industries and not linked to any real health benefits.

The ice zone (Southern Shelf) is only the very beginning of the game, you reach more interesting areas after defeating the first major boss, Captain Flynt.

Slop has existed as a word far longer than AI has. Uses for the word slop include:
-
Unappetizing watery food or soup.
-
Spilled or splashed liquid.
-
Waste food fed to farm animals such as pigs.
-
Soft mud or slosh.

Denuvo is hardly even a deterrent at this point. So many games are releasing unfinished and broken that pirating it right when it comes out would just be a waste of time. It’s only by the time Denuvo is removed later on that the game may be in a more playable state and thus worth bothering with.

I doubt he had any time to think. He was killed instantly while doing a “debate” so his mind was probably elsewhere before it ceased to exist.

Took a nap before he died, woke up to find out he got blasted. Quite the surprise!
