  1. May the Force be with you all on this special day!

      And with you!

  2. A bird in the hand is worth anywhere from zero to $10,000 depending on the bird. You can't just go around grabbing birds without knowing their value.

      That reminds me of Ace Ventura.  He was searching for that rare lost bird.  At the end of the movie he finds it at the stadium but the Eagles mascot accidentally scares it away.

      So Ace beats the crap out of him.

      Hmmm,  Just saw that on tonight's news...And they're suspending Fire  FX for the time being...

  4. How come the home page isn't updated with those new games like Popeye or Lode Runner?

      Albert

      I usually wait a few days before updating the front page, probably will do that today or tomorrow.  I also need to sent email out to the store mailing list to help promote the games.  :)

      There only ended up being seven. We think the extra movement was just heartburn or gas.  Momma and the kittens are doing well. Now I need names besides the 7 dwarfs.

      Well,

       

      Little hard to feel bad, when every legitimate criticism was met with  "Market Research" and "You don't know what you're talking about"...And every financial concern was hit with "We have large investors!!"

       

      Ummm...OK.   Where are they now?

      I'm pretty sure she's mostly there for listening rather than talking if you catch my drift. Maybe Alexa and Hey Google can keep her company somehow.  Like bringing furbys together.

    3. joeatari1

      No.  And I never talk to Bixby or Alexa either!

      Maybe could do a Buck Rogers' Computer Council.

  9. Momma, Momma. I'm tired of running around in circles. 

    Shut up or I'll nail your other foot to the floor.

  11. When is Hasbro going to release the Omicron Transformer?

      If you like horror movies,  nothing is too terrifying!  Bring on the truth!

      The Truth is     Big Macs are made of people aren't they?   Big Macs are people!   (Oh wait...Or was that Soylent Green?)

      I have seen them locally also but never an X.  Amazing how long MS/Sony hardware has been out of stock.  Nintendo must be selling a lot of switches also but seem to manage to keep them on the shelf.

      I suppose they could've just Knick Knack'd her instead: https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=1883

      That would probably look insanely weird though.

  18. What would Return of the Jedi be like if David Lynch directed it?

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      It would probably be like if Oliver Stone directed Space Hunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone crossed with a Tim Burton version of Star Crash.

    2. Tickled_Pink

      Tickled_Pink

      It would probably be called "The Lynching of the Jedi" for starters.

  19. When you teach a wolf to mediate, it becomes aware wolf.

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Yes it does haha!    Topical because I will soon post in the movie thread about having seen The Wolf Man (1941)...

      If you teach it to media(.)te, unfortunately it becomes instead a care-wolf…

       

      (… sorry, don’t mean to be nitty-picky…, just couldn’t help myself… must be the quarter-part visible Moon doing it to me…)

  20. It's amazing how no one watches movies at the theater anymore. I went to see a movie last night and the theater was empty.

      I grew tired of movie theaters some years back, after seeing one-too-many films that were projected badly in a crappy theater. After that, I'd only go to really well run/maintained theaters (ArcLight, Dolby Cinema), and then only rarely (usually for big-screen blockbusters). There aren't any good theaters nearby, and they charge more, so it just became too much of a hassle even before the pandemic.

      (pre covid) The night before the last Avengers movie, I had bought the only seat so far for the showing, right in the middle.  Paired recliner seats, which clearly show as pairs on the website.

      I get to my seat and there is an entire family of 5 in the row, with someone in my seat.   I get there, show my ticket, and the mom makes her kid move out of my seat, and I would have sat next to her in the paired seat.  I think I said out loud "Are you fucking kidding me?"  Moved down one row where nobody was.  What the hell is wrong with people?

      I tend to go to movies for the "Rocky Horror" experience myself.  So the clapping, the reactions, the shared experience.   And the popcorn, my wife likes the popcorn.

       

       

  21. Why does every ancient site such as Stonehenge have to with religious or calendar events? What will anthropologists think the Golden Arches are in the future?

      The serious answer to your question is that in a primitive agricultural society, planting your crops at the right time of the year is the difference between feast or famine.

      In the distant future when they see Taco Bell they'll wonder why we had and needed so many laxative dispensaries.

  22.  

    Are rams called rams because they ram things or is the act of ramming called ramming because rams ram?

      Personally I think they should go back to calling them Dodges.

  23. Analogue's Super NT goes on sale again today. As expected, you can't buy it since their site won't let you put it in the cart. Thanks bots! What idiots are running that site?

      And this is why i don't even bother with Analogue

      Glad you got one!!  I love Analogue stuff!  But yeah, their website selling out of stuff or not working,  is no fun.

      I thought about making the effort to get one as I dearly love my MegaSg... but decided that between my original hardware's solid composite output and my Snes Classic's 720p (with Hakchi), I'm in decent enough shape that it's not quite worth the $ and effort.  Now if they had it up for sale for several weeks, it would at least be on my radar in case it worked out right.  But getting a sudden email saying they're going on sale in a day and will sell out fast...just feels like unnecessary pressuring.  I again love my MegaSG... but come on Analogue, be professionals.  Make more, sell more, order more, sell more.  Give the customers what they want, make money, make everyone happy.  Not that hard when you have a sought after product.
