What a curious game. The only winning move is not to play.

Is this the step before or after being the age to want things to change, but old enough to be jaded?

When I prayed for Jesus to be packin’, this is not what I meant.

Oh well, least I still have Mohammed. Maybe Buddha, too.

That’s the great/terrible thing about parts of the U.S this time of year! You can do both in the same day! You can watch as the alerts for burn risk due to low humidity and high temperatures pops up alongside the freeze warning for the night.

It’s just the best! I fucking hate it! You stay in layers until the sudden onset of heatstroke. You get to feel like the Mad Hatter is in control of the thermostat, always ready to change layers.

Sometimes it’s not about being that person, but finding the people who draw that person out of you naturally.

Sorry for looking at this a bit deeper than I really should. Hitting on something I’ve been really thinking about lately.

The audience is now deaf.

Until you learn how low Death can go.

Don’t try, your spine can’t handle it.

In a row‽

LEGO biology is weird. Most of them don’t even have ears.

And then you have Bionicle, which is LEGO and biology!

ETA: For those who don’t know.

A quick summary: Guy behind Bionicle dealt with morning sickness as a side-effect from his medication. To help cope with it, he imagined the medicine as little warriors, going into his body to fight the cancer. The reason they had capsules was inspired by the pill bottle!

Blunt instrument.

Heroes aren’t always good people. Their reasons are lost to time to the average person, but the message is remembered. The actions supersede the reason.

Guy Fawkes is not remembered as a person, he’s remembered as a figure.

Not calling this a good thing.

Yes, it was! In fact, this wasn’t uncommon! Several early PC titles would ask you questions and point you to the page in the manual.

Another one was Code Rings, cardboard discs you had to align words/symbols on to get the code to play the game.

If you lost your manual/ring, or bought a second hand copy without one, you were absolutely fucked on playing your game.

“Why couldn’t the Cliffracers carry them to Eternia?”

“The Great Emission of Saint Jiub.”

Remember Alf?

He’s back! In wizard form!

Apparently, boiling is the superior option.

Tenfold increase in energy yields by boiling.

Alright, but how are they on the Bay? There’s a right way, and a wrong way. If it takes less than an entire container, it’s wrong.

Just to add in some fun tidbits to this:

If you go by one of the myths, Malacath is what was left of Trinemac after digestion. He’s the Daedric version of a Golgothan, not made of shit but born from it.

His plane of Oblivion, where his followers hope to go after death, is basically Valhalla after being reduced to ash. It’s straight up called “The Ashpit” with it’s notable features being the Great Forge and The Backbone of the Ashpit, which might be Malacath’s actual spine since Oblivion planes don’t make sense when you think about it for too long.

“And I told Sauron, I told him, I’ll burn this whole place down…”

You know he’s never going to give it to you.

“Can’t expect me to train my replacement if I don’t remember how I did it!”
