Relevant Mitchell and Webb

I think I pretty quickly came to the conclusion that I was effectively being punished for understanding the normal material more easily than my classmates, and I didn't get why my "gifted and talented" work was necessary, since it was, to me, bonus material, and not even interesting bonus material.

A core memory of mine is after showing up one time without an assignment done, my teacher decided to go around the room asking what everyone wanted to be when they grew up. All my G&T classmates said standard kid answers like doctor, lawyer, firefighter, whatever. Not being a smartass, I gave the genuine answer that, because I really liked Taco Bell, and there was a taco bell in walking distance, I'd be happy to work there and get some free Taco Bell.

Teacher called my parents.

How the fuck was I supposed to know giving a real, and in hindsight significantly more attainable answer was unacceptable? We were in elementary school, so why the hell would I know at that point that basic food service is basically non-viable in America?

Gaslight Obstruct Project

Christfire would've gone hard.

I use a metal straw with a silicon bendy bit on the end, and it's not like I throw away the bendy part.

I know for sure that Sonic and Knuckles was the very first game I played, or at least that I formed a memory of playing. I also had this handheld Radica Junior Bass Fishing game. And then I think I got to play Cruisin' USA at somebody's house and they had a full steering wheel setup for it.

"swims" can be rotated 180 degrees and still say swims. It's an ambigram. "pod" would be another.

I especially like raisins baked into pastries.

Assuming the price is exactly the same on both platforms (or even within like $10 if I'm not getting a Steam key from the GOG purchase), I'm buying from Steam every time. Mainly for the convenience of having it in my Steam library, so I can't just flat out forget that I own the game already when I finally get around to playing whatever it was, because god knows I don't immediately play straight through the vast majority of games I buy.

One of the (thankfully) only times I saw one of these fuckers it was on my ceiling above my desk. I left early for school that day.

Mini Metro and Mini Motorways are pretty chill.
Both Katamari REROLL games.
Pretty much every Humongous Entertainment game.
DREDGE and WORLD OF HORROR if you want an exercise in slow-paced creepy bullshit tolerance.
Jet Set Radio is probably another solid choice, just for the music and aesthetic.
Beat Hazard for vibing to your music and some crazy flashy visuals. 2 has support for a bunch of major music streaming platforms, including YouTube.
Also like any porn game you can get down with.

Also Peglin, if you ever wanted Peggle but as a roguelite deckbuilder.

Specifically 64, yes.

Basically 3D Galaga with furries.

Me asking if I can steal the 2.5lb plates so I can accurately follow along with what my app is telling me to put on the bar.

I do. The number one "complaint" people had with me pre-pandemic was that I should smile more. Not one fucking dumbass person has told me to do that when I have my mask on. That alone is enough reason for me to never take it off when I'm dealing with customers.

I am also still paranoid and I don't trust the average person out there to be doing safe things.

Pay everyone in my building several years' expected pay to quit all at once, except for one specific manager that everybody hates.
