Block him, Squid. He’s doing this in every thread and you need to put this energy towards more important things.

That’s a very evocative outfit. Maybe he could pose with it, in front of a poster that reads “Liberté” and looks like it was created by a high school art student.

Or something. I’m just spitballing.

The IRS only has a limp dick because Repubs won’t allow Congress to pay for their Viagra.

Sure, OK.

How are you going to bring up early CR Matthew Mercer without his most infamous pronunciation gaffe?

Sigil* as “siggle”. If I were at that table, I’d still be ribbing him about it (good-naturedly, of course).

I don’t know if it would meet your “no kid’s movie” requirement, but Hocus Pocus has been in my spooky season rotation forever.

Also, it’s technically a musical I guess but the animated Legend of Sleepy Hollow narrated/sung by Bing Crosby is a classic.

Everything else on my list has already been mentioned, but I would be remiss not to mention one of my wife’s favorites, Corpse Bride. If you were already looking at Nightmare Before Christmas, I think you’ll enjoy it.

WRT Secret of Mana - maybe play the first little bit yourself until you unlock a second character, then save and you two can start from there. Trust me.

Also, I know it’s a side scroller, but Castle Crashers is great fun if you haven’t tried it yet.

Pretty much any of the SNES era arcade ports: TMNT, Knights of the Round, Sunset Riders… Though maybe not all of them in one sitting.

That’s all I’ve got off the top of my head. Happy gaming!

Yes, this thing is bad.

But what about this other thing?

If only there was a term for the type of argument you’re using…

Whoops, your party put the meteors next to each other again. No prog for you this week!

^Disclaimer: ^I ^never ^made ^it ^past ^T5 ^“on-content” ^but ^I ^heard ^the ^horror ^stories

Donald John Trump comes from a family of real estate speculators.

Akira Toriyama once said he based the character of Freeza on Japanese real estate speculators, who he called “the worst kind of people.” (Source)

Am I saying Trump is Freeza? No, Freeza is several orders of magnitude more competent on his worst day than Trump was when he peaked in 1951. But I think it’s important to underline, for the people in the back, what level of cartoonish evil we’re dealing with, because for some reason people will read stuff like this and it won’t sink in. Maybe DBZ will help.

I don’t know. I’m tired, y’all.

+1 for Archinstall. I’m a Linux noob and getting everything set up was a cinch. Even had a spot to put in my address so I can get my first pair of thigh length striped socks from the AUR.

^that ^was ^a ^joke.

Oh hey, I was having this issue. Changed the audio to OpenAL, restarted, and haven’t had any problems since. Might be worth a try if you haven’t already.

Bames Nond’s having a stronk, call a Bondulance.

Houston native spotted. I’m so sorry.

But this behaviour isn’t really new - I used to work at the Whole Foods on Kirby, which caught fire back in… god, 2012 or so? And someone drove up WHILE THE FIRE WAS STILL BLAZING, was informed that the store was closed, and legitimately responded, “But where am I gonna get my coconut water?”

They may be more mask-off about it now, but it’s always been a thing.

People aren’t using Boatlights-tan for desu memes anymore? I really have gotten old.

Grab 'em by the headlines. When you’re famous, they let you do it.

I feel this pretty acutely. But I’ve tried to change the way I approach it. When I randomly remember my cringe moments, and I start feeling like I’m going to be obsessing, I try to think about how I’d react if it was a friend of mine telling me about some stupid thing they did forever ago instead of me. That can be enough sometimes for me to stop and say (sometimes out loud, it helps) “That was forever ago and yeah, it was stupid, but you learned.” And it helps. I can’t always move past it, but it seems like it works more often than it doesn’t. If that makes sense.

Yeah, you did some stupid shit. But guess what! If you did it more than 7 years ago, biologically speaking you’re technically a whole-ass different person now. I don’t know if this will help anyone, but I hope it does.

Rock over London, Rock on Chicago!
