Now if you want REALLY MESSED UP stuff,

I’ll see your alternate timeline and raise you the canon timeline where Paris and Janeway abandon their salamander babies.

Hang on, I’m seeing a pattern, here…

Fuck yeah, it does!

But they’re too late! I’m too entrenched in the Nintendo ecosystem, with my perfectly formed Mii that I demand to play as in a variety of games.

If only they had thought of this sooner!

Ohhhh… It took me (checks post age) seven hours to get it.

Diced.

When the law no longer pretends to serve the people, it loses a big part of it’s social power.

Many people in power today don’t seem to really understand the nature of power.

That was a surprisingly good sequel.

A woman once told me she worked in a club and when one of the regulars passed away, a bunch of them went to his funeral.

There’s certainly worse legacies one could leave, than having spread some wealth around while presumably having been respectful enough to be missed.

How dare you compare this popular almost plot free slugfest to that… Other…popular almost plot free slugfest!

Edit: Of course, I’m joking. And I am vaguely aware that both franchises have some kind of plot now.

Still, I think it’s funny you got downvoted for making the obvious comparison. We either have one die hard fan in here, or someone with fat fingers meant to upvote you and misclicked.

I hope so. That game made the rest of the stupidity of adapting a plot free game into a pointless movie worth it. Because we got a game out of it.

My favorite DropOut show is “Play it by Ear”.

There’s not enough of it yet, but I re-listen to old episodes of their “Off Book: The Improvised Musical Podcast” to tide me over between seasons.

If I had to pick a favorite episode, it would still be from the Podcast, but the show keeps getting better.

Obviously Game changer is the best game show on any network. The latest surprise season bonus finale is my current favorite, followed by the other escape room episodes and of course “Yes or No”.

By total hours, I guess Dimension 20 is my favorite.

A tip for the D20 curious: start with more recent series, or one of the self contained live shows.

I think my favourite D20 is now tied between Never Stop Blowing Up and Mentopolis. Cloudward Ho is working for me, as well.

Um Actually, Dirty Laundry and Gastronauts deserve a shout out for helping get me through doing the dishes and laundry.

I forget sometimes that there isn’t anyone else really doing Um Actually with real nerd cred (that I have found. Recommendations welcome). I feel spoiled by it.

Gastronauts feels like it could become my favorite cooking show, once they dial in their unique balance of silliness and earnest food appreciation.

I wish Smarty Pants seasons were a bit more frequent. It’s such a nice showcase to discover new comedians.

Nice! Thanks for sharing this analysis.

I thought our primary way of producing new Linux users was sexual reproduction and then indoctrination from birth…

Interesting. I would have guessed that Mint gave ChromeOS a run for it’s money, by now.

Yes. By the porn stats, Linux already crushes ChromeOs. Let’s not take any advice from it.

I’m not sure Grandma and Grandpa would want a steam machine as a replacement for their aging Windows 7 home computer.

Fair. But for my gram, it would have been a slam dunk day one buy. She loved her playstation and only tolerated her PC. She would have called a Steam Machine “my game console that can check email” and would have adored it.

It absolutely delay people buying. If you held out for 6 more months, you’d get a substantially faster computer.

That describes most of my life, under Moore’s Law.

I handled it in the traditional way: I bought what I wanted, and then I immediately cussed about my shitty timing to my friends the next day.

It’s not like cars would eventually cost negative money and they pay you to take them.

While I accept your point, I feel conditioned to interrupt here and clarify that I absolutely would download a car. There was some unexpected confusion about this, at one point.

Okay. Carry on. Thank you.

There’s a delightful DC Comics Elseworlds story that amounts to this. It was fun.

Sure you harpsichord! Anyone harpsichord do it!
