You’re never too old to practice Standmaxxing™️!

What about kicking the tires? They’re forgetting to kick the tires!
- Comment on Day 671 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 week ago:
Even more obscure, since it never got shipped to NA, but a South American friend suggested it to me saying it has Shadow of the Colossus vibes. Which is good, haha.
- Comment on Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should 1 week ago:
Now do it with a fried chicken bun!
- Comment on Day 671 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 week ago:
I like that your daily games lately have been (very random) nostalgia, haha. That said, I say this as I boot up yet another underrated Wii game nobody heard of but is weirdly good (Arc Rise Fantasia).
Spread the retro joy!
- Comment on Anon tries watching nu-Trek 1 week ago:
I mean, they’re trying to make a joke but it kinda works better with, idk, Voyager or something (well, maybe gay or black comment but certainly more diverse and highlighting stuff like cultural diversity).
That said, I’ve seen this exact joke about wokeness already but with TOS, so eh.
- Comment on Rare, slightly used 1 week ago:
I bet it’s not even officially licensed, smh

I learned to rest my hand on my chin so I make the thinking face. Resting thinky face.
- Comment on That kid was the WORST 2 weeks ago:
It’s more that I was not particularly good at it yet by 14, and Smash is particular. Plus I haven’t declined (yet), but maybe when I hit 40, hehe.
- Comment on When traffic comes to a standstill, drivers instantly shift left and right to create a Rettungsgasse, an emergency corridor right down the middle, so ambulances 2 weeks ago:
Legally, yes, it’s even in the info they give at the DMV and I’ve even seen some people pull to the side (if for no other reason to copy those in front of them) but I know if we left an opening in the center in standstill traffic, some asshole would zoom down it almost immediately. And then probably several more, because again, they just copy each other.
- Comment on That kid was the WORST 2 weeks ago:
Even better (by 14 yo me standards), I met a pretty girl online, whom I later married and got into the industry (albeit, less cultured? Lol).
When questioned by my childhood self why I am not making games myself, I point to my backlog and we both nod in agreement before I thoroughly wreck him in Smash Bros.
- Comment on That kid was the WORST 2 weeks ago:
I’m one of the few people who’s 14 yo self would fucking admire, mostly for stupid teenage horny reasons but also video game industry reasons.
- Comment on Sega has canceled development of its ‘super game’, as it pivots away from live service games | VGC 2 weeks ago:
Given trends, probably open world online craziness.
- Comment on Anon struggles with OLED 2 weeks ago:
I do like the idea of spinning, hypnotic porn.

“Haha, so funny Mom! Can you bring down more chips? I’m in the middle of raid.”
- Comment on Need a AI update 3 weeks ago:
That just be what the firmware and Wi-Fi access is for, on demand sharpening and anti-oversharpening features. Lol
- Comment on Need a AI update 3 weeks ago:
Yo I just want a knife with a sharpening sheath. That’d be super handy irl.
- Comment on Your Truck is Stupid Big 3 weeks ago:
Only silver lining of gas going to is including these guys are paying even more to drive that ugly pos. Not worth everything else going up in price, though.
(I think that’s f250 according to the side, but a 6.7 diesel? $7.50 is the rate for diesel around here and it’s got something like 13 to 14mpg real world stats so lol.)
- Comment on Two Twilight Princess PC Ports in the making 5 weeks ago:
I’d be more interested in a fan sequel built on these. TP Link has more story in him, I’m quite certain (no spoilers, though).
- Comment on Hrmmm 🤔 5 weeks ago:
I like the Nic Cage movies and drowning deaths correlation more. Lol
- Comment on Samsung Galaxy Extinguisher 5 weeks ago:
Does that work with lithium battery fires? The last three spicy pillows I’ve dealt with were Samsung.
- Comment on Finally paid off my Costco hotdog in 4 easy installments! 1 month ago:
It’s weirder than you think. Oddly, you hurt your score with too many hot dog loans. Financial experts usually recommend somewhere between 2 to 4 outstanding hotdog loans being paid out at once, as too many indicates bad financial practice.
What works against you, though, is the per loan amount. You might never get above 700 as your loan cap is $1.50. For some reason, it looks bad to credit agencies if credit providers don’t set your cap high, even though technically you can’t unless you already have good credit. Given my former $150 store card I copayed for my mom lowered my score, I can’t imagine a $1.50 loan looking good on your report, lol.

If they just wait a moment, I’m sure there’s a Waffle House around the corner. “I got teleported to a Waffle House on the moon!” wrote one bugged out reviewer.

Actually I think this might just be an evergreen post since it’s always relevant.
- Comment on phonetic alphabet 1 month ago:
Y’all laugh but the US adopted this alphabet back in 2025.
- Comment on The person who mounted a spice rack into the fucking studs so a fridge won't fit there 1 month ago:
This is clearly a load bearing spice rack.
- Comment on Game franchises you like, but wish were anothet genre of video game? 1 month ago:
“I like FF7 but I wish instead of a JRPG, it was a generic ARPG” said an SE exec at some point, apparently.
- Comment on Always funny to hear the young try to figure out stuff from the past. 1 month ago:
Given the number of people who know what a cassette tape is, I always find these jokes about floppies unrealistic. But a shitpost is a shitpost.
- Comment on We thought it would be free forever 1 month ago:
We’ve simply evolved our methods, although it’s crazy spending any amount of time on a mainstream social media because it’s remarkable just how many people seem to have no idea you can pirate things. Limewire and Napster were so mainstream, comparatively.
- Comment on Perhaps the only appropriate use of AI 1 month ago:
Quiet city montage… lol.
I’m old enough to remember an April Fools Day bit Adult Swim once did where every show just had consistent, random fart sounds including serious anime like Ghost in the Shell. I’m certain this LLM would approve of such a work of (f)art.
