It's like he wrote an already weird sex scene description, then right clicked every word and chose the last synonym on the list.

Holy shit, that's a good burn.

I managed to graduate having taken no chemistry classes lol.

Thanks for explaining this simply. Somehow I never learned this in school.

Funny you say that. Mario Kart DS was peak offline social gaming for me. Back when it came out, lots of kids at my high school carried their DS on them and lunch was nothing but Mario Kart. At least it was among marching band nerds. And if someone happened to have a DS but not Mario Kart, we'd just do Download Play so they can at least join us in a limited capacity.

I don't know anything about this game/series, but that looks like such a cool bundle. If I found that as a kid, I would be hyped as hell to play it. Can just imagine unfolding that packaging with all the discs would feel like opening a treasure chest.

Look, I love the guy, but 90 minutes of Charles Martinet wahoo-ing through the Mario movie would be completely unwatchable. There's a reason Mario almost never says more than a few words at a time.

This kind of thing didn't used to bother me at all before it very much bothered me and now I'm somewhere in the middle. I think cartridges/discs for consoles should not require an Internet connection to play them. That said, this isn't the PS2 era anymore. Many games release with patches day 1 and most will have at least some updates post launch. A lot of games kept offline end up missing out on a ton. Keeping a physical copy of a game is only preserving a portion of the game for a future without the servers to supply the final version, which is my main concern when it comes to physical vs digital media. We still have to rely on hacked consoles running custom firmware or emulation to properly preserve games.

OK, I promise I only know this because it's related to my job: In the movie that came out earlier this year, there are minions with super powers. This one is supposed to be a rip off of The Thing from Fantastic Four. That's why it looks like that.

There's an international grocery near me that has at least one type of nut and one dried fruit on steep sale each week. Just buy a couple pounds of those each week. It's not all I eat, but it's pretty much all I snack on. Probably about 20% of my diet.

The Oracle games had GBA releases? Wow, that's news to me.

I've seen this kind of defensive comment from you before when you've been called out. I personally do not mind the "spam." Lemmy is always short on new posts, so spam away. What I want to show you is how your posts end up looking to others.

The headline/subject is always cut off because it's too long. Just think you should paraphrase it abbreviate when possible and permitted by the Lemmy community in order to avoid making posts that don't make sense. In this case, I'd just leave it at "Scared Shitless Official Trailer" and leave the description for the body of the post.
