  1. Lemon and a pear Livin on a Prayer by Bon Jovi "One last thing before I quit, I never wanted any more than I could fit into my head. I still remember every single word you said and all the shit that somehow came along with it. Still, there's one thing that comforts me since I was always caged and now I'm free."
  2. DEBATE: Is Oklahoma in the South or the Midwest?

  3. Someone needs to engineer some socks that heat themselves. 

  4. So in my opinion, Puppet Master Ganon was incredibly hard. I've run the game several times and I still hate fighting the puppets. It's not Hollow Knight hard, but it's definitely several notches harder than the rest of the game, which I would say was more of a 3/10 difficulty wise. Kids will get a good challenge and adults will figure out most of the puzzles pretty quickly. The puzzles are rewarding enough, but not deeply so. So it's kind of a shock to your system when you get to the puppets and the freakin worm thing moves almost impossibly fast. The final fight. Okay so the introduction where he's dual wielding the swords kicks SO MUCH ass. "Do not fear. I will not kill you." That so eerie. Ganon moves pretty quickly, but the game prompting you for a parry makes the fight much easier. I wish I could have turned that off because it turns an active fight into a bunch of quick time events. What I love about Wind Waker isn't the final fight. It's the world and the world building. Like you said. There's so much to do. The map feels so big and there was so much to discover. Even if you discovered everything, you could still just randomly pull 50 rupees out of the water here and there. Just something to keep you occupied while you sail across the map. And the theme for the Great Sea is so dang good. I only wish the boss fight could have been better. :p
  5. I saw in another thread that someone bought a Cheetara sculpture and now I have the Thundercats song stuck in my head.
  6. Four of these bad boys. My PC has a new spec: Pounds of Thrust. It sounds like one of those WWII bombers at full tilt. That one neighbor with the 1994 Honda Civic at 3 am has nothing on me. This thing is almost as loud as my vacuum cleaner - about 80 decibels. In normal use, though, I keep them off in software. Whenever I'm gaming is when I ramp them up. I need a hardware fan controller to make that job a little easier. But my top card, which was previously running at 95 degrees and was throttling and making my video skip is now running no hotter than 90 degrees in most situations and doesn't throttle. What I really need now is just a GPU upgrade since nothing new supports multi-GPU that well. RDR2 apparently does, but I can't get it to work.
  7. No idea, haha "The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't." HINT
  8. I want to learn to play the harpejji, but they cost like $2,600.
  9. I hated English in high school. I'm kind of a stickler when it comes to grammar, but I hated being made to read all these old books that really made no sense. As for college, I really hated Psychology. Everyone and their mother and their dog told me that class was an easy A. I barely scraped by with a C. I had the worst professor. We got exams that ranged from 120 to 200 questions and had only 2 hours to do them. He hardly actually taught in classes. One time (I'll never forget this) this dude spent half of the 90 minute class talking about the toilets in China. Plus, the material just didn't make sense to me. I also really hated statistics. I am mortal enemies with the term "standard deviation."
  10. H3H3. I loved H3 back in the day. Ethan made some REALLY GOOD content several years ago. But the main channel and the Ethan & Hila channel are dead now and all he's really got going on is his uninteresting podcast. I don't hate the podcast, but it's so uninspired. It has some really good moments, yeah, but it's not Ethan that makes those moments. It's the guests on the show.
  11. Machine Gun by Slowdive. Such a dense sound that I could just float away.
  12. Politik by Coldplay. Absolute hidden gem. Total banger.
  13. I unironically love vaporwave. It makes me nostalgic for a time in which I never lived. This is probably my favorite. Politik by Coldplay is also worth a listen. Chris Martin even said once he thought it was their best song. Great song. H&O have SO MANY amazing songs.
  14. I got ISFP, but I also get INFP a lot when I take these tests
  15. A liter of black coffee. Nothing else. That's it.
  16. I drench everything in Sriracha where appropriate. I wouldn't say that I have a high heat tolerance, but it's higher than most people I know. I guess when I go to Buffalo Wild Wings, the hottest I can tolerate is Hot, which is like their fourth hottest sauce. But I wouldn't go to a Thai restaurant and order something labeled "Adventurous." But I'm also coming up on 30 and my gut is getting more sensitive. If I eat the wrong kind of hot sauce or if the sauce was too hot for my stomach, let's just say it lets me know.
  17. Leftover spaghetti. And one bite of pizza before I stopped eating the pizza because the crust was like leather. That was something like 15 hours ago. I just drank like a liter of coffee. I don't feel any less tired, though. I guess that's life sometimes.
  18. I'm playing Skyrim again. This time I'm completely ignoring the Dragonborn quest line and just improving skills, doing side quests, making money, and exploring the game. I don't use fast travel except to go to the holds. So I have only a handful of locations to which I fast travel and kick rocks the rest of the way. It's a self imposed rule. I'm also using Frostfall. This time, I've gone for high armor and low health so I spent a lot of time improving my armor skills and investing in smithing and my load out. I'm something of a red mage. I'm a swordsman, but I also cast a lot of healing spells. But I have a darkness mod that makes travel at night almost impossible so Night Eye is super useful for staking out a campsite. I'm also mining a lot of iron because I got Transmute so I can convert it all to gold and smith it into rings. I also cast Equilibrium a lot so I carry no potions. It's a cool way to play because you're not stopping the action to drink 12 potions in a row. Also, I determined if you want to make money in this game, be female. I found that most of the merchants you deal with are men and Allure in the Speech tree gives you 10% better prices when bartering with the opposite sex. I spend most of my time in Whiterun. The merchants I deal with most are Farengar, Adrienne, Ulfberth, Eorland, and Belethor. Only one of them is a woman. Clavicus Vile's Masque also helps
  19. I never understood all the hate WW got. It is so pretty and the one Zelda game that doesn't look like crap 20 years later, if we're talking original releases. I also just love the art direction of WW.
  20. If you can't guess based on my ava, yeah. I have never not loved Wind Waker, even when it was popular to not love Wind Waker. It's my favorite. I have my original version. The game has aged so well. Sailing the ocean is such a relaxing thing that this was the first game I ever played where I avoided fast travel unless I needed it. I adore the soundtrack. The last fight with Ganon isn't all that great though. Ocarina did it WAY better. It's good and they do a good job of setting this really dark tone, but the fight itself is a solid 6/10. Ocarina will always have a special place in my heart. It's a near perfect balance of challenging puzzles and memorable bosses. I'm not totally in love with the soundtrack here but there are some real bangers here. Breath of the Wild is just brilliant. I also found out how much I love and hate climbing. Running out of stamina on a long upward climb is a total omae wa mou moment. A Link to the Past is the best top-down 2D Zelda in my experience. The first two I've played, but always found pretty difficult. Zelda II is down right punishing. I love the aesthetic of Twilight Princess, even if the game hasn't aged incredibly well (my opinion there). Midna is probably my favorite Zelda character ever. I still need to give Majora's Mask a serious run one day. Same with Skyward Sword. I'm not in love with having to use motion controls though. If they make a more traditional control scheme and port to Switch, count me in.
  21. Why are there sidewalks in the Cars movies? They're all cars. What're they gonna do? Drive up on them and run over a whole lot of nothing?

      Because the self-driving cars overthrew human society.

      it was a coup d’Fiat....

  22. Would you buy a phone that solves the notch issue by removing the front-facing camera entirely?
