  1. The Emergency Room is a fun place to be. That may or may not have been a complete lie.

      Well,  if you're there I hope you get better.  But if it was just a comment,  you'll get no guff from me.

      Hmmm...But how is Amazon Sweden?  TBH,  Until 2 minutes ago,  I didn't even know if there was an Amazon.SE but there it is!  Respektingivande! Looks like they've only got 150 Million items, though..HAAa!  JK,  Only!  Could you imagine?  Suddenly I had to know about Amazon US...Looks like a catalog of 12 Million unique items add in Marketplace sellers and Voilà!  350 Million + Items!   Holy Cow!

  4. Do you like games that utilize the game select option or prefer simple "pick up n' play" i.e. one mode with artificial difficulty?

      PS Not sure about Amazon in other countries, though....They had to put a lot of infrastructure in place before this was possible I'm sure.

      And yet,  Amazon...Not always, but often...Lightning Fast!  Sometimes I order something,  go to bed, and wake up to a delivery notice in my email...And an older email will tell me it shipped.  But I do live within 4 hours of 5 distribution centers...

      Classic stuff!  And cool that Tarantino used him to score The Hateful 8.

  8. You know what I hate: when these so-called phonk producers make sped-up or slowed-up version of their own tracks. I mean...what's the point of that when all you have to do is adjust the play speed on your audio player software...or edit in Audacity.

      Right on!  I have a (studio) noise project myself,  called Dark Andromeda which I would describe as noise meets cosmic dark ambient, (with occasional flourishes of sci-fi nerd music).  I've been working on an album for years, and will likely get back to it when I have time (heh)...I think I will eventually do a release on CD, plus an additional 7 inch vinyl or 2,  and likely a limited edition 12 inch vinyl in some cool color (Maybe an Emerald Green splatter?)...

      There's nothing wrong with choices...But couch compliant is pretty nice :)

       

      TBH,  If I were describing perfection;  It would be one button starts "The Game",  but with a menu to change it up, if desired...

  11. Ok. Why when you boil a kettle and go out of the room to do something else, it boils almost instantly. Stay in the same room thou and wait for the kettle to boil.....

    I'm going to try boiling the kettle and pretend to go out of the room, then peek around the corner. 😂

      I suppose humans could be contronyms.  I mean if CPUWIZ's hypothesis is correct,  and I add,  What about the band The Cure?  Then you have Humans are a disease and Humans are The Cure.

  14. I thought I'd watch an episode of "Fallout" on Amazon Prime and got a message that I'd have to pay $3 a month to see it ad-free. No thanks. Prime video normally sucks, so I'm not paying 3 bucks a month to watch 8 episodes of one show without ads.

  22. You know what's awesome and totally not annoying? When you buy an alcoholic beverage, and there's no nutritional information because the company that made it isn't required to put it on the can. I mean, sure, okay, I needed to know how much sugar is in this thing, but I could just die of diabetic shock instead.

  23. Yay! More Lynx games in the mail: Steel Talons, Xenophobe, Switchblade 2, STUN Runner and Klax! Yay, again!IMG_9293.thumb.jpeg.53ef3263d74760a9c5b39c2661a5789a.jpeg

    …and even if many may not like Steel Talons because its the type of push-hardware game that gives a slower framerate, this one is among the titles I most want to grt to grips with… 

  24. I miss Pathmark and the commercials for them done by the late James Karen.

  25. I like turtles.
