Sometimes I watch videos on... lesser games I translated for. Even if most criticisms are fair, I will still yell "Nooo! This plot twist makes perfect sense! You just didn't read every single missible email and line of side quest flavor text in the game! I cried when X y-ed! Stop hurting my baby!"

The masculine urge to edit the Wikipedia page of Rammstein's Feuer Frei! because the original author did NOT pick up on the sexual nature of the lyrics.

Angela Anaconda had an episode where she picks up ventriloquism. Everyone at school soon likes her dummy way more than they like her, a classic cartoon premise. Frustrated, she throws it into a dumpster. The final shot zooms in on the trashed dummy. Its eyes suddenly open with an orchestral sting.

Ballpoint pen, watercolor, colored pencil, a little crayon, and charcoal pencil. 

Our guy pulls up deep in the forest on his 2-speed bike. He’s flanked by tall dark trees and his path is blocked by a massive spider. He lets the Big Fella know it’s on. “Big Fella,” he says. “I fixed my 2-speed. You still wanna race.” Reader, you know Big Fella wants in on that action. Next slide.Against a starry night sky we see silhouettes of Big Fella and our man racing down a hill. It’s unclear in the drawing who will win but Big Fella is likely about to pull away.

Thing is, no matter how much Jacob Geller will say he regrets what he did, no matter how sincerely he regrets what he did, he didn't spend 10 years in prison, so he demonstrably doesn't regret it as much as he should.

I love it when people are being very silly in very clever ways. Which is why I like Diogenes, both the guy and the creature.

I'm hosting a pubquiz in October, and I hate researching on the internet. Oh, Pope Gregory IX ordered to have cats killed, so an overabundance of rats spread the plague? That's fun. Oh? It never happened, but everyone parrots one debunked book from the 1990s? Awesome! That's 20 minutes of life gone.

I checked out all 4 games from this years Amnesia Fortnight by Double Fine. I know Xavier lost his arm in the thumbnail, I'm too tired to fix it. Plus, he's no Spoon, so I don't care as much. Watch the video to understand wtf I'm talking about.

Sony and Xbox slowly self-destructing while I contently lay in bed playing Fire Emblem makes me feel like I made the right choice. Nintendo is always a few years "behind", so they might go to shit one day, but until then, wow, never thought Nintendo characters would talk about fucking so much.

Fire Emblem really did say trans rights.
Screenshot of FE Fortune's Weave. Fortuna is shown saying "But no, not us. You should get to decide these things yourself."Later, Fortuna continues: "You have been torn free of causality, so you may take any name you like."

You know how people give the smart phone deduction scene in episode 1 of Sherlock shit for not making sense? I just returned a lost keyring to its owner (yes, at 2 am), and every assumption I made based on its appearance (depressed alcoholic ex-police officer travelling by e-bike) was 100% accurate.

It's really weird how I was very impressed with the Ocarina of Time Remake's art, then ugly-chortled at the "Spiderman Experiences Knight's Pleasure" plastic toy design of the Kokiri Sword, and was then quite impressed again. I hope Ganondorf is permanently wet in this one.
