I have no business still buying sealed packs of FF MTG but every time I do I still somehow get at least one cool card that I don't have and would have cost me about the same as a pack to purchase individually so my bad habit keeps getting reinforced.

Sometimes the best part of pro wrestling isn't what happens inside the ring, it's the dumb shit that happens outside of it.
It’s up and it’s the last one ever.

My YouTube Music recap is very reflective of my having to play KPop Demon Hunters every time I drove my kid anywhere this past summer.

Pizza is my order as well.
This dog was spotted politely waiting by a pizza truck. He doesn’t have to say what he wants. They already know his order. It is pizza. 13/10 (IG: lauren.bardini)

Walking out of Wake Up Dead Man and one of our fellow theater goers is LOUDLY discussing the plot of the movie in the tiny lobby of our local theater.

Snitching to corporate and getting 30 people fired is not mandatory — rats have to make that choice for themselves.
PMG understands Rockstar became aware of these messages after at least one non-union member of the server raised concerns about these discussions with management and this either kicked off, or contributed to, a wider investigation.

One of the greatest consoles of all time. An absurd amount of classic games, XBLA pushing indie games into the spotlight and every night when I signed on there would be a ton of friends online ready to play the newest games. It was a moment in time that will never be replicated.

This is probably the worst thing I could have read regarding a new Metroid game.

Fun to see male fans get the vapors over women blading. The average gal has had a monthly relationship with blood before you had a whisker, goes to bed listening to podcasts about Ted Bundy, and would gleefully take a scalpel to any blemish you have if you let her. Catch up.

Vay stands out the most in my memory because I purchased a copy off of eBay and the guy just sent a burned CD-R with "Vay" written in marker on it.
Vay (1993) by Hertz (not the car company) was a fantasy RPG for the Sega Mega CD in Japan and later localized by Working Designs for the USA. As Prince Sandor, you must rescue your beloved from the wicked Danek Empire and its mechs by recovering the legendary armor, Vay! (an alien armor thread)

Yeah this turns out to be a lie. Just non-stop Hades for the past week. Game is too good.
I also got credits on Hades II! Yeah, not quite "finished" because there's more stuff I can do but I think I'm gonna chill a little bit.

Uh, it's awesome? Just as good and addicting as the original? Maybe not quite as flawless? Some of the crafting resource-gathering is kinda meh.

Actual conversation with my 10 year old today.

*driving past the airport*

Me: Hey bud, whenever I drive past the airport I think about how we're flying out to MAGFest in a couple months

Him: Really? I think of 9/11

Me: ...alright... ...ok...

This is the big win for me. Local elections matter!
Even more great news: the Cheektowaga Democratic candidates SWEPT every seat and have taken back the board!

Congrats to Brian Pilarski, Monica Elderkin, Tiffany Lewis and Stephen Nowicki on your big victories and this just proves the people of Cheektowaga want government that works for them.

I finished Death Stranding!

What a weird fucking game. I semi-hustled through it because I wanted to just see the story before playing DS2 but I found all the pain-in-the-ass walking around and delivering stuff to be surprisingly relaxing? Will probably do a lot more optional stuff in 2.

Fun fact - about 20 years ago I committed myself to learning Super Ghouls 'n' Ghosts in order to beat it and get the true ending. I spent at least a couple weeks playing as much as I could, learning all the patterns and RNG BS. I was eventually successful and then never played the game again.

I remember way back at MAG9 I had no idea who these clowns were or why they were getting two nights to perform some kind of pretentious rock opera.

I went to their first show and within 5 minutes understood.

This is going to be insane.

note the legals: LRG's using Japan's arbitration system for orphaned games to reissue Little Samson—if you can demonstrate that you've made a genuine effort to contact/identify a potential rights owner to no avail, you can legally commercialise an old game by paying royalties to the JP govt, which…
