  1. Doughnut care about some first look. Liked the first movie, and will see the second one. No desire to watch a trailer about it either when that happens. Going in as blind as... heh.
  2. Just feel like I gotta check, I am 100% one of the more odder members like Cnut said and I just wanted to make sure I wasn't in the group just in case because of that
  3. Am I one? Cuz I don't know who yer talking about. I don't really post on the CEB, so it makes me wonder. Since I don't know who they are, might I be one of them? In case I am, I just want to say that my opinion on abortion is that I'm pro-choice. I don't have a nuanced opinion and I lack subtlety. If ya don't want it get rid of it. Always thought it was weird that there is a large portion of people who don't think this way.
  4. 50% The other 50% are the outsourced call centers for legit corporations.
  5. Sit-down restaurant chains are the line. Chinese takeout and Pizza are 100% fast food. Texas Roadhouse and Outback aren't fast food. Chilis and Olive Garden straddle the line but considering it would take more than 10 minutes to obtain your food if you walked in and ordered I don't consider it fast. You can just walk into a Chinese place or pizza place and be out fairly quickly.
  6. I used to get McDonalds a lot. Bit more rare now, but damn sometimes those McNuggets really hit the spot. Ain't no nugget like a McNugget.
  7. Oh yeah, for the NES FFs the Pixel remasters are perfect. For FF3 and FF4, I'm a bigger fan of the 3D remakes. And of course, the music upgrades are great as well. I did not mean to imply the pixel remasters aren't the best way to play the original six because they are, no doubt. And while I am a fan of the 3D remakes, they have not aged well. They suffer from the same kinds of issues that the PS1 era FF games suffer from. But even crappy 3D graphics and shitty frame rates are more immersive than lil sprite dudes.
  8. Yeah, most things that I make take minutes or are simply pop it in the oven and wait. Making bacon often requires more effort than most meals.
  9. There's also the fact that the pixel remasters lowered the quality of some of the SNES graphics in an effort to make all the games look the same. In FF6, the detail of the character sprites has been downgraded if you ask me. The top is the SNES version which has a kind of grittiness that looks better while the bottom has a bit of a generic made in MS paint look. Hell, it might actually be wrong of me to say that the detail looks downgraded, but rather, that they tried shoving too much detail into such small sprites. Each individual pixel stands out much more due to them being all the different shades of the same color. Terra has gone from having only two shades of green to, I'd say 5-10ish and it looks very pixelatThe sameSame goes for Locke. Honestly, not bad looking, but I can't say I prefer it. Luckily, if you are on PC, you can make it look like the SNES version or super darn close to it. I can see how people would prefer the new spites too. They feel taller, their silhouettes feel more unique, and less squat and square. Overall, they just stand out more. Even if it is wrong of me to call it a downgrade, I can say I don't prefer it, and I don't think it is an upgrade at all, but just a different style.
  10. Well, you can get the improved part for free, not talking about old ROMs, just not on the switch. Well, there is a way for that too but you gotta giga hack the switch.
  11. About once a week. Sometimes more. Chinese Takeout, Popeyes, and Local Pizza Chain are pretty much on a weekly rotation.
  12. While not an FPS, Gears had execution, the best game mode, and in execution, you had to kill enemies while they were down. That's the point of the game mode, Execution. Well, unless you gibbed them or got a headshot, then you didn't have to execute them as they were already dead and in more than one piece.

    Chips and dips?

    Haven't gotten the Utz Kettle-style chips since I was a lad. Fuck they are good. They have a nice meaty flavor I had forgotten about thanks to them being fried in lard.
