Except that Ground Zeroes exists and also Episode 46 of Phantom Pain. This would actually have made sense if ...

But that didn't happen. No, Hideo and Konami were just idiots about it starting with Ground Zeroes.

This is why I sometimes enjoy Ubisoft trash. Especially Ghost Recon Wildlands and Breakpoint. Just the same old shit on a massive map, an okay story, fun gameplay. Easy. Simple. Nice for mindless bullshit.

For an RPG, try Kingdoms of Amalur Re-reckoning.

They should not have it near the max fill line right after a change. Certainly not all the oil has settled and more will. Especially if they put oil in the filter before adding it like they should. If it's near max, then I guarantee more than max is actually inside there. There's a reason there's a range that's acceptable.

Even worse they say "the wife." I've met a few of those. Could not believe they actually talk that way.

Up there with people who use "female" far too much. Especially "females."

What about the pressure sensitive buttons from PS2? Those MGS games really needed that feature.

Countless times I can buy an older game on Steam for like $5 on sale and like $40 on Playstation sale.

Fucking idiotic.

Where do I sign up to Hail Sithis?

I want qualified people, not popular people.

See coroner's vs. medical examiners. One is a fucked up way of doing things.

Which time?

There's so much. Another one I learned more about in recent years is the horrible testing on Puerto Ricans, including the sterilizations.

For anyone interested, today there are excellent graphic novels about some of these topics, like Kent State and Puerto Rico Strong. I would encourage people as these are excellent ways to learn more about these topics. Some local libraries have them sometimes.

Gotta give VP Dick his credit where due.

We can also call out shitty design and unnecessary pressure/misinformation.

This is like saying yiu can just ignore cashiers asking you for tips or donations. How about they fuck right off and STOP.

How sweet that you think the US ever had its way.

Skipping the obvious bullshit of the last 25 years, there was Anita Hill, and Rodney King, Reaganomics, Reagan racism, Nancy "I don't give a fuck about this until it affects me" Reagan, then Kent State and our military just straight up murdering our kids, Nixon, CIA killings of prominent activists, murder of a president, McCarthyism, that whole anti-immigration/racism era where white Americans rammed god and their view of patriotism in everything (people today STILL think those things were there since the beginning), union and strike busting, child labor, failed reconstruction era, more president's killed, "compromises" over fucking slavery, wannabe King Jackson not giving a shit about other human beings nor any possible check on power or anyone else's ideas, a fucking Vice President shot a guy (the first time), begging the first president to be King, and failed attempts at presidency and democracy before that (pre-constitution).

I really glossed over a lot too.

Few or many diseases depending on how I spend it.

as long as you own the game, emulation is legal.

People say this, but I believe it is mostly technically untrue. It'd be a relatively easy argument to say that a downloaded ROM that isn't exactly the digital copy YOU purchased with a license would be seen as not legal.

However some people talk about literally ripping the game off the physical device themselves, hence copying their own copy of it. Now you are in grey territory of making copies of copyrighted materials, and in the case of more modern games like the last decade, they almost assuredly have language that specifies you don't actually own the code and all that.

All I'm saying is be careful and probably refrain from repeating the fallacy that owning a game makes emulation of it legal, because that implies having the ROM is legal and that's doubtful.

Do you hunt for all of your food and cook it from absolute scratch?

I bet you sometimes use a grocery store.

But but but... my parents stories about self-made, and cheapskate, and he's rich cause apparently he's not frivolous, and wears sweatpants, and other dumbass lies they ate up...

Butternuts!

I've been hearing about WWIII basically my entire life now. I don't give a flying fuck. I'm trying to pay bills and enjoy my measly life until I can't at all.

Worrying about shit I literally cannot control is goddamn exhausting.

The meme is a brief moment of levity.

Eisenhower warned us.
