Man, I love the Mercer reference in the background of this shot from the new Blade Runner 2099 trailer.

I want to be this guy when I grow up.. (from page 55 of Japanese magazine "Beep", October 1988 issue)

Being part of a problem and part of a solution is all a matter of perspective.

Me hand feeding a seagull out by the inlet with a buddy of mine. I guess two buddies now if you count the seagull.

Oh, so you've met that blonde woman too?

Screencap from emulation of a PC Engine CD game called Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire with "WARNING It's dangerous for you to come" in big ol' letters. If you're going to fukei, stick to gingas is all I'm saying.

Well, shit, I guess I can see the fnords.

You're definitely going to need to have a go on 7800 Ninja Golf - the ATHF PS2 game is a kind of spiritual sequel to it. Looks like whoever's in control of Atari this week even rereleased it relatively recently.

Atari 7800 Ninja Golf box and cart, apparently compatible with Atari 2600+

That doesn't look anything like this, though..

If I had a nickel for every time I see someone call a rogue-like game a rouge-like game, I could open my own Sephora and make everything free for a year. Get off my lawn, you non-spelling kids.

How much does vibrating v-ram go for nowadays?

Konami ad from a scan of an old Famitsu, appears to be for MSX2 Contra.

Went out to the Point with a friend today to eat a couple of dried out gas station french fries before giving the rest to Beavis and Butthead, two seagulls we've apparently befriended.

Two seagulls who have been at the Point the last half a dozen times we rolled up.. I've called them Beavis and Butthead, since they were squawking at each other in sequence and also occasionally fighting and squawking over each other too.

How you gonna keep 'em down on the farm once they've seen Squinty Coleman? No, I'm not high, just badly timed.

Hanging out with a couple friends at a local tavern. No, I didn't drink all those myself.

YT looking like some kind of demented sex criminal at a local tavern's courtyard with a bunch of cans stacked in front of me. Some goof basketball player's custom motorbike is on display behind me under a giant TV.

You can find beauty just about anywhere in Denmark, even with fat goofs in the way.

Yours truly hanging out with a buddy by the inlet this afternoon.

Eighties episode 1 is streaming right now.. wahey. The website isn't set up yet, apparently, so no archive until probably this time tomorrow.

Stylised cartoony cassette tapes stacked endlessly in the background with a bit of word art saying "Eighties".

With friends like these, who needs... to be depressed? Thanks, bud, you're a champion.

A care package from Japan, including exotic delights and some kind of weirdly awesome and awesomely weird looking Psyduck candy collectable thing? I'm almost afraid to translate it, yet alone open it yet. Long live Psyduck, and long live my buddy NFG.

This is why I don't take a lot of selfies.

A dickhead in a radio studio behind a mic with an "I love 99.7 Denmark FM" bumper sticker on his forehead. Scraggly beard, glasses pushed up on head and old yellow t-shirt, I'll leave you in suspense whether there's pants or not.
