    I think that this is what people who don't watch anime think that all anime is like: Well either that or dragonball super.
  2. Current windchill is so low that it doesn't really matter if you measure it in Celsius or Fahrenheit.

    Of all the weird bullshit that Umineko has thrown at me, the only one so far that has left me dumbfounded is all of the characters suddenly doing power level calculations based on narrative tropes.
  4. I like how Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin are in the "we don't have a color for temps this low" zone.
  5. There's about the same amount of time between now and Half-Life's release as Half-Life's release and Space Invaders's release.

      Raison d'être

      A clip from the Simpsons was recommended to me yesterday. It was the Itchy and Scratchy land episode from Season 6 I think (might've been 7). There was a joke where Homer and Marge saw a 70s themed nightclub, and all I could think was how this 24-year old episode was making jokes about things that happened 24 years before it. Does anybody make 90s jokes now? I know they'll never make 00s jokes.

    I'll still put paradox in front of Stardock. At least paradox puts interesting ideas into their expansions (even though most of the time those ideas should have been in entirely new games). Most of Stardock's stuff is either entirely inconsequential, or stuff that was obviously removed from the original game to make new DLC. All this without even having a stable base game.
  9. Someone glued the hands in place and they are too proud to admit it.
  10. They finally stopped teasing us with bullshit like 2.5 minutes and finally gave us what we really want: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2019/01/24/doomsday-clock-how-close-we-midnight/2666319002/ Up the irons, boys!
  11. Carbonated water is for people whose bodies normally subsist on sources of hydration other than water, like Italians or Russians.

    Game Deals Announcement Thread

    *Deponia Complete not actually complete (doesn't include Deponia 4). Still a really great thing to pick up.
  13. I kind of want to say fuck amazon and buy everything locally, but nearly everything I like is too niche. The one exception is board games and comics, but the local geek shop doesn't have the comics I like and gouges the hell out of board game prices.

    Random Image Thread: Animu Edition

    How did my life get to a point where this comic is all understandable:
  15. The only e-mail of mine that is in danger is the one that I already knew got hacked. It was sort of a tipoff when all my contacts started getting spam from it. But nothing important was attached to that account.
  16. In 2050 it will be proven that ghosts are real and a method will be developed to reliably capture their images on film. The first application of this discovery will be forcing the ghosts of Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson and Harold Ramis to star in yet another ghostbusters sequel.

    This is why I waited until it was cheap on GoG to pick it up. Before every "major update" (i.e. "the game is no longer the game that you bought") I do a backup of the old version just in case the new version is crap.

    First game of Stellaris played as a glorious feudal space empire, and took over half the galaxy. For my second game I decided to play as a federation type materialist/pacifist. Of the enemy empires, all but 2 are either militaristic or spiritualist. Most of them fanatically. At this point I'm just bribing people into trading with me.

    Why couldn't they just call it Battle Angel Alita?

    Anime General Discussion

    They really are going to make anime versions of every Gundam manga and novel: Next they'll do that alternate version of Char's Counterattack which still had Beltorchika, before the original movie removed her from the script for being a bitch. EDIT: I was joking when I said that, but now that I think about it Hathaway's flash actually uses some key plot details from that novel that didn't appear in the movie version of Char's Counterattack, so maybe they really will make an adaptation of it.

    2018!

    I might do this, but only as a "best of what I watched." That would include three shows form 2018 I think? Patlabor anime of the year though.

    Part of the reason that I watch so many Japanese video on youtube is that it tends to kill the default recommendations relatively quickly. But now Youtube has started recommending lots of Family Guy videos with Japanese subtitles: There's no escape.
