- Comment on Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work? 4 days ago:
The Sunlit Man was so good. I love books that have fast pacing right from the start, and trying to figure out how the world worked was so much fun.
- Comment on The USA spends $15k/student annually which is 30% higher than the global median. Why do U.S. schools have "fundraisers" where kids are incentivized to sell stuff to people? 6 days ago:
Also the sort of things the schools spend money on. I don’t know from experience, but I think US schools pay for police officers to be at the school. That seems crazy to me, and expensive.

The Connors has been successful.

Unless aliens attack! No, wait… Ok yeah.
- Comment on Darfall, a fantasy city-builder with hero-based RPG gameplay and night monster attacks, released on Steam. 2 weeks ago:
This is a genre I’m starting to really enjoy. I loves Against The Storm. This looks somewhat similar. I’d love to check it out!

Healthcare CEO’s day at the office.
- Comment on I am sick of seeing the rich and powerful on my screen. Where are all the TV shows about normal people? 3 weeks ago:
The Connors went on that long? I’ll have to check it out. I figured with Roseanne having gone off the deep end it wouldn’t hold up much longer.

Maximum Derek!
- Comment on The XCOM Complete Humble Bundle is an awesome deal 4 weeks ago:
I love the voice acting in Xcom 2: WOTC. It’s like a Star Trek The Next Generation reunion.

Thanks!

Was Dogman good for a 5 year old? I’m worried from the previews that it was just a lot of action chase scenes.
- Comment on Favorite B-Movies? 5 weeks ago:
Great (awful?) 80’s musclebound heroes movie.

Nice screenshots.
Love this game.
- Comment on What's the worst instance of plot armour on characters you've seen in TV? 1 month ago:
Groundhog day. That guy survived being stabbed, shot, poisoned, frozen, hung, electrocuted, and burned.
- Comment on For every 30 minutes theres a 50% chance my right shoe lace will come undone 2 months ago:
Double knots are the worst. So hard to untie. Try Ian’s Secure Knot
- Comment on For every 30 minutes theres a 50% chance my right shoe lace will come undone 2 months ago:
For slippery shoelaces that seem to come undone all the time, I’m so happy I learned Ian’s Secure Knot. It’s very strong, but still comes undone easily only if you pull on both of the lace endings at the same time. Pulling on one end won’t cause the knot to come undone. Once you’re practiced, it only takes a bit longer to tie than a regular shoelace knot.
- Comment on How come in most school in the USA (at least mine) they teach Spain Spanish instead of Mexico Spanish? Would not Mexico Spanish be an obvious choice to teach? 2 months ago:
French taught on Canada (outside Quebec) is France French, not Quebec French. My source on this is that I was taught to say “we” for “oui” and not “wayh”. And the Quebec French sound I’m only getting from comediens on CBC so that could be way off.

Bob - Weird Al Yankovic might be up your alley.
- Comment on Emulating PS2 for my Steam Deck, would love any recommendations! 2 months ago:
Def Jam 2: Fight for NY. It’s basically like some of the older WWF wresling games where there can be 4 fighters at a time, but you can only be targetting one at a time. But all the fighters are rappers. The finishing moves are awesome!
- Comment on Official 20th Anniversary Poster for 'Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith', Returning to Theaters April 25 2 months ago:
Like, May 4th is right there! I guess they wanted to get it going before then.

- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
I got a heat rash from using an antiperspirant on an extremely hot day. I got so angry I threw out the antiperspirant and go with just deodorant, but I miss the dry feeling antiperspirants give.

Whale oil beef hooked.

- Comment on For No Reason in Particular Here's a Bunch of Games Where You Kill Nazis 3 months ago:
There is PvP in Path of Exile 2 and at least one known Nazi player. Go ahead and kill him when his Boosting Ground worker is off the clock.
Hahaha, love this!

I ain’t no pansy ass spawn camper! That ain’t how you play doom!
… But yeah that works.
