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 weeks 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 weeks 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.

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!

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.

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!

It’s a game from 2014, but I love Double Dragon Neon which is 50% off. I have songs from the game in my regular music playlist they’re so good. I enjoy it more than the recent Double Dragon Gaiden. Great coop.

Rogue legacy 1 and 2 are great roguelikes.
20XX and 30XX are great Megaman clones that are roguelikes.

Make a family and add them to it. They’ll get access to your entire library. As account manager you can hide any games you think are inappropriate.
I’m sharing with my brother who has 4 sons and it has been great for everyone.

Those at least say what they are. Bink will say it’s a video encoder. I just remember a voice saying “PEGI 18” but no other stuff about what that meant so I thought it was a publisher.

Oh shit, I thought PEGI 18 was a game publisher. It seemed like their start screen logo was on all the best stuff.

Contra and Mario were games I had mastered. Contra I could do reliably with 3 lives. When I was in grade 2 I remember starting up Super Mario 1 and selecting 2 players because my friend was over. Beat the game without giving him a chance. Didn’t even switch to Luigi after saving the princess.
