I don't trust people who don't like oatmeal raisin cookies. And they aren't even really hard to tell from chocolate chip, the texture is completely and visibly different!

I mean, the original SMB quadrilogy was one of the first remasters ever (they messed up the brick breaking physics in SMB1/LL though, so I prefer the original or a fixed ROM hack of All Stars for those.)

JSRF should get a modern port. I'm not sure it'd qualify as a remaster (does the PS3/360/PC port of the original JSR count as a remaster?) but it shouldn't be stuck on failure-prone 20 year old hardware.

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk... it's a better game than the original JSR, but not nearly as good as JSRF IMO. Worse song selection and a lot more repetitive.

Most food items, minus vegetables.

Discord and SMS.

Xenophobia is an anti-intellectual trait.

I am so sick of reading proposals like this from probably-white non-US Westerners who have probably never actually had to engage with the idea that racism exists. This might get some fascist groups off the internet, sure, but it would also likely push oppressed minority groups who do not necessarily have access to quality education out. That's the history of minimum IQ requirements for voting, mind you.

Put this proposal in front of a Proud Boy and they'll likely be in favor of it, because they believe whites are the only people smart enough to pass it. They'll stop being in favor once it goes into effect and they're included along with groups they hate in the "not allowed online" crowd, but the groups they hate, some of whom's situations may be made direly worse by the lack of unrestricted internet access, will most likely be pushed out too.

Found the anti-intellectual.

Luxury cars are notorious for not holding their value, unless by "luxury" you mean performance cars, so that's normal.

I was born after the 90s so I wouldn't know, but generally speaking I'd always heard the average car in America is ten years old.

When have most Americans ever been able to afford to buy new?

The Simpsons. The current episodes are honestly a bigger fall from the quality of the show 10 years ago than the Simpsons 10 years ago was from it's golden era. It's been on eh for most of it's existence but Plusaversary is when it died if you ask me. That short is borderline symbolism for why Simpsons sucks now.

South Park. I don't watch the show anymore because it violates one of my non-negotiable values, but I also don't subscribe to the "SOUTH PARK RUINED THE WORLD" mindset that much of media criticism circles does (largely because I think South Park was a symptom if anything, and also a lot of those articles describe bad South Park clones better than South Park) and I'm not above admitting media I disagree with is well-made (but still, South Park is transphobic and generally promotes a Libertarian [as in US Libertarian Party] mindset.) But before I stopped watching...it started to feel like the creators understood their show through what media (media that was positive about the show) built it up to be rather than what it was. Pretty much every episode became politics (when their pop culture criticism was often funnier honestly) and it started to feel like the characters were just pawns for political issues instead of real characters. It's like they stopped writing an animated sitcom and started writing an edgier version of standup, and stopped being funny in the process. I think Stick of Truth was probably the last glimpse of what South Park was.

Shiny new tools for what they've been doing for years.

She has a coat :3

I mean, that already is used to significantly lower at-the-pump gas prices from what they actually are, and raising gas prices is an easy way to lose an election in America, so that probably won't change. Notice that in many other countries gas prices are way higher than in the US.

like, you're not wrong...but also who is poor and getting a space junk fine????

They were originally on Gamepedia, which got bought out by Fandom.

I'm about as old as OP, but every time I remember that my generation grew up on mostly 360/PS3 it reminds me that I was weird, my dad got an Original Xbox when it came out, which was the year I was born, and even though we had a Wii, I think we actually played games on OG Xbox more (we relied on the Wii to access the internet through neighbors' unprotected Wi-Fi for a while though.)

I could see there being fatigue with particular genres of indie games (Metroidvanias, Rougelites, First-Person Horror without combat, speedrunner-oriented 2D platformers) but not with the very concept.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Most Sonic games are easy, but Sonic 1 and 2 aren't. Actually, I've beaten it as Knuckles, but never as Sonic (therefore I've never beaten it as it was in it's original release,) I can't get past a specific jump in Wing Fortress Zone.

Minecraft is less that I'm not good enough and more that I get bored around the time I first get to the Nether.

More and more American cities are removing them too!
