post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers

Mountain King for the Atari 2600. The fact "In the Hall of the Mountain King" starts playing when you need to get the crown to the top of the mountain within a certain amount of time youtu.be/hbCc4BTI370?... was epic.

We need more fun, 4 player games.

Looking for a game my whole family can play at the same time and not finding anything new.

Give me TowerFall 2.

The LEGO Game Boy is a fun build. The way the d-pad and buttons actually "work" is pretty cool. And how chunks of the machine slide and lock into place is masterful.

Tortilla chips on demand.

Open an app, click tortilla chip button and sometime in the next couple hours, fresh bags of tortilla chips arrive at your door step.

I will gladly pay $50 a month for this service.

My kids just had their first lockdown at school. Our kids texted us letting us know they are safe and locked in a classroom.

Lockdown lifted about 10 minutes later, don’t know what happened. Don’t know how anyone (more so the students) can keep focus after that.

It shouldn’t be this normal.

A good reason to go watch Coherence again.
If anyone is interested in the sequel to COHERENCE, we finally landed on a story worthy of the mission. Unless the actors revolt, we will probably do it just like the first one, where they know their own character details, but don't know what the other actors are going to say or do. Like real life.

Watched Cabin in the Woods with my kids last night. While they didn’t get all the tropes and references, they enjoyed it.

Lots of great jump scares and a couple laughs in there, such a fun movie.

That’s a wrap on our concerts for this year. Last show was our anniversary present to each other -> traveled to Toronto to see Deftones and System of a Down.

Epic night in Canada.

NIN

One of the best shows I’ve seen with a light show that just added a whole layer to the experience.

Need a game to play this weeks? Play Öoo.

Just finished it and it’s great. Simple little mechanic of being able to drop and ignite 2 bombs to help you solve the puzzles.
Öoo on Steam
A Bomb Caterpillar's Big Adventure! "Öoo" is a charming yet mysterious exploration puzzle platformer where you discover creative ways to use bombs!

“Mother should I trust the government?”

I was surprised the amount of people in Ohio, at a concert filled with mostly 60+ year olds boo so loudly after that line. Biggest pop of the night.

At a Brit Floyd concert and damn, they’re good.

The song I sing to myself as I check things off my todo list:

Getting shit done and doing it well!
Getting shit done and doing it well!
Getting shit done and doing it well!

My 20+ year old Dyson has seen some days…

Still working, just kind of glides over the carpet more.
