King of kings: the early years
en.wikipedia.org/…/King_of_Kings:_The_Early_Years
A mediocre set of platformers interspersed with bible trivia. I played the crap out of them because it was the only thing other that super Mario we had.
Later we got Joshua and the battle of Jericho. A bomberman clone.

For sure. Reversing the percentages here makes this far more difficult. I just felt we needed to shittify this post a little.
- Comment on So wise. 2 weeks ago:
Great for calculating tips!
Let’s see: the bill was $138.72, so I just need 138.72% of 20. And we can subtract 100% and just add the 20 back at the end, then convert the percentage to a decimal so (.3872 * 20) + 20 = 7.744 + 20 or $27.74.
Easy!

That’s probably an actual quote? It’s so bad, I find it hard to tell.

This could genuinely be actual dialogue from True Blood.
I drunkenly hate watched a season and change of that ages ago and can still hear the vampire guy grunting “Sookeh.”

I charge both my ridiculous Lightning and PHEV Volvo this way.
But I’m on track for only about 3500 miles for the year (10 months in) on the lightning.

Well there was that time they were sued over not meeting the definition of “beef” (it’s apparently 88% beef, so yay?).
The uk horse meat “beef” scandal.
And the metal shavings scandal.
But mostly it’s just ultra-processed crap that has enough salt and fat to make people think it’s food.

I can empathize. I went back to work a month ago now. It was/is hard to be unavailable.
Luckily, I work from home in a fairly independent role and my wife is still on leave, so we’re still largely co-parenting. We could afford to have me stay at home, but we’re saying that the extra I make above the truly wild cost of daycare will go to his education, financial security, and cultural enrichment.
We’re also telling ourselves that daycare will be a positive/important social experience for him because we have a small friend group locally and family is halfway across the US.

I think we’re only missing Wham! Last Christmas for my nightmare list from working retail.
Well, and anything from the Amy Grant Xmas album, but that’s my dad’s fault.
Oh wait, can’t forget Christmas shoes… (Shudders involuntarily).

TRS-80 then IBM PCjr here. Both hand-me-downs though.
Mom wouldn’t let me on the 386 until I could touch-type and write a program in BASIC. She was a Cobol and IBM RPG programmer.
