  1. Papa John's is really onto something nice with that stuffed-crust garlic pizza they've advertised lately... I got one today and it was pretty damn good to me.

     

    That terrible song I mentioned before... the name still eludes me, and I've still been trying to search it.  One thing making it tough is that none of the lyrics are easy for me to discern what's being said...and of course I am not familiar with whoever the trash-tier singers/rappers are....it has amazed me for months that this song is apparently popular/successful enough to get a LOT of airplay on the radio for the past year or so.....this is yet another one of those things where I just have to keep reminding myself that most people in the world have incredibly bad/dumb taste in various things, imo.  There's been plenty of examples---things like the "Pet Rock" craze, the "jheri curl" and mullet hairstyles, horribly designed sneakers being popular and expensive, ugly vehicles like the PT Cruiser and El Camino being popular, BONNETS being popular, etc. etc.

     

    *edit---yep, this is from someone who enjoyed a Papa John's pizza today... it is what it is brah.  Anyway, yeah I'll keep searching... I MUST find out more on that awful song.... every time I pull up that radio station online so I can see the song titles...OF COURSE they never play that bullshit then....of course.

  2. There is some RnB song they've been playing for the past year or so that is so unbelievably bad.... and it's annoying me that I can't track down the title/info of this bullshit...since part of the problem with the song is that I can't clearly hear whatever it is they're saying...so all I know on it is how awful it sounds....that it starts off with this woman singing a very simple melody (like maybe a half note then a trio of notes down from that, then a higher half note or so and another triplet down...repeated) over and over as the beat eventually comes in....but that shit sounds raggedy and stank.  She sounds like a wounded animal just howling as it dies slowly from being run over by a car.  Each time I keep imagining how it would've played if they performed this on American Idol...and how you'd see Randy Jackson holding up the papers over his face to hide his laughter, as Simon Cowell says something brutally honest, Paula tries to be nice and Randy wraps things up with his usual "It's a no for me, dawg."  They'd get laughed out of the audition for sure.

     

    It's so terrible I had to bring it up with someone just to talk about it... I mentioned it to mom on a recent conversation and the funny thing to me is that she knew right away what I was talking about, though neither of us know the title, lyrics or whoever is singing this trash.  I found the website though so I may find out soon enough via the live-stream.  Yes, the song is so horrible that it fascinates me, and I feel compelled to find out more information about it.

     

    *I look forward to seeing how a certain Ultra Contrarian friend I know will try his best to defend the shyte.  

     

    *currently they're playing Keith Sweat "Right and a Wrong Way" though----that's a real, actual quality slow jam right there.

  3. That also reminds me--- back in the day I did have an unreasonable bias/hatred of the character Yajirobe.... something about him just made me want to see any other character beat his ass.

     

    ...it would be nice if Bleach finally got this level of attention and production quality in a game these days, especially with what the latest saga to be animated has brought to the table now....but there's probably little to no hope of that.  There's some Bleach mobile game that's been a thing for years now but that's the problem, imo... it's a goddamn mobile game.  I want something major and made for real gaming systems.

  4. That upcoming Dragonball game looks great, and yeah I'm most likely getting it asap.... but I am already wondering if they'll leave Zarbon out yet again.  For some strange reason, it's like the various developers of DBZ games over the years have some weird little vendetta about that character, as he's always left out or just not represented properly.  I don't even recall him being in much of anything other than that first Budokai game....where they put him in the game with NO CAPE.....yeah that shit still irks me whenever I think about it, all these years later....like imagine putting Batman or Superman in a game...with no cape....get the hell out of here with that.  It wouldn't surprise me if they added silly fatass Yajirobe before even considering Zarbon (or Dodorria).

     

    It is a good thing that the DB games eventually got good with actual competent developers working on things..... some of the older ones I remember were either just "ok"/half-ass at best or looked like straight up trash I'd rather not play.  I remember Budokai being very odd in terms of gameplay...and I was really just tolerating it because it was the Dragonball IP in videogame form.

  5. More of the foolishness that helps shine a spotlight on how this country (and certain places in particular like the state of NY) is forever a clown show, with an alarming % of scumbags always ready to take advantage of anything they can without hesitation.

     

    It seriously is one of the dumbest, most absurd concepts I've ever heard of in life.  Hopefully this finally sparks the vigilante brand of justice that USA actually needs since the actual justice system is the equivalent of a tv practical joke.  People need to find out the hard way.

     

    haha that bitch on the right actually looks like one of my old friends from grade school...like she could be his sister... a guy who turned out to NOT be a real friend anyway, because oh yeah---he was a thieving piece of shit too, like you'd expect of people from "M-town"....he and his cousin were really just coming over to steal whatever toys they could get when I wasn't looking..... of course neither of them made it to the point of graduating high school, btw... the cousin had upgraded to car theft by the time he was around 7th or 8th grade and ended up in prison, fortunately.  

     

    Yes, this is one of those things that taught me early on in life to just never fully trust anyone.... because most human beings are scum..... trash that exists only to be a parasite and do whatever they can to take advantage, con and steal/leech their way through life on other people's money and effort.  

  6. Baldur's Gate adventures...

    And so the Warlock Alastor and his crew of degenerates was 8th level.  The powers are so good at this point; the normal stuff + *spoiler* powers, of course.  I was happy to reload an older save in this final part of Act 2 because it turned out I was about to miss 2 good encounters worth lots of exp....one fight was a bit rough but "Banishment" spell took the most problematic enemy out of the fight for a while as we killed another one....then a scroll of "Cloudkill" spell and some other things finally got that last one.... also found a room of freshly-turned mindflayers!  I took the easy route here with a certain option your character has that can instantly wipe them all out; tried fighting them earlier and the results were horrible.  Fortunately, there's some illithid device in the area that was for "rejuvenation", similar to when you're on the ship...and I noticed this fully restores everything, just like your group took a "long rest".  We've now arrived at the place where the grand finale of Act 2 will happen... figured that was a good cliffhanger to end things for the night.  

  7. It is indeed strange to me that they casted Colin Ferrel to be fatass Penguin... this reminded me of my annoyance over them casting John Leguizamo as the clown form of Violator for the Spawn movie.  Seems like it would be easier to go with someone who already looks close enough to the character in the first place, then you would not have to waste time/money on a fatsuit and whatever else.

     

    I am not familiar with that "Unknown" game from the picture but that character looks like she's been punched in the face so many times it just became permanently fucked up.

  8. yeah my good memories of Titanic was that--- the scenes of some folks bouncing around as the ship was going down. Of course it's one of those things where the girls were trying to tell us "hey that's not funny" but we couldn't pretend the visual wasn't hilarious.

     

    Also--Kate got naked at some point so that was a bonus as she was looking quite tasty back then.

  9. sheeeitttt, hopefully I can make time for it... the addiction to Baldur's Gate is so strong... and the same for Dragon's Dogma 2 once I get started in that.  This is perfect timing though since the holiday (Good Friday) is coming up, and I have Thursday off as well. (should've taken Wednesday off too)

     

    I also don't have much hdd space to work with on any of my systems at this point.  

  10. Whenever I get Dragon's Dogma 2, more than likely it's mystic spearhand for my character.  Also from what I've seen of it----the Trickster looks like it sadly is lame... like there's such a great interesting concept there but there's also some questionable design choices that bring it down....won't surprise me if it ends up being the least-popular vocation in the game if they track those stats.

     

    ...back onto my beloved BG3 for a quick second.... It was either on facebook or the Baldur's Gate subreddit but I recently saw someone mention their gnome character being named "Shitler"; heh, that was a good one...might have to steal that idea for later.

     

    A super-evil Dark Urge version of David the Gnome or Papa Smurf might be fun too.

  11. Streets of Rage 4---- Estel is such a monster in Survival mode...  up at level 18 and just hit with a 121 hit combo; her star move just devastated the entire screen since I picked that upgrade that adds rockets to your star move....whole screen of enemies just got nuked; it was beautiful.

     

    Earlier I was playing another favorite; Shiva...hadn't played this in a while but I made it to level 22.  

    Randomized Survival mode is a thing that should just be a standard expectation in beatemups from now on.  I can't get enough of it.

     

    ...just unlocked a lot more artwork as well from that survival run; the art on this game is some of the best I've ever seen on a videogame.  Whoever that is should definitely work on as much more stuff as possible.

  12. The "squatter's rights" has always been some of the most nonsensical bullshyte I've ever heard.... check this out

    I just looked it up---fortunately the great state of Tennessee doesn't have this kind of nonsense squatter "rights".  We have the shame of Memphis being part of the state, BUT at least this state isn't completely retarded like NY on this particular.

    🤣 what a dumb fucking state... wowwwww, man....goddamn

     

  13. ooooh I just love it when the ladies constantly tell on themselves and look like fools with zero effort on our part:

     

    ...so I guess she was in a hurry to get back to career-criminal Deebo that slaps her around every now and again.

    One of the funny things is that even when they admit it on video like this, you know there will always be someone doing all kinds of mental gymnastics to re-frame this as being that guy's fault somehow, like "eh, maybe he was abusive behind the scenes" or "wellllll he was probably not doing  x, y and z obviously so THAT's why blahblah" because there's always an explanation that people desperately hunt for to make sure women don't ever look bad or "at fault" for 5 fucking seconds.

  14. Streets of Rage 4 + the DLC was also on sale for super cheap on Steam recently; couldn't help myself... yep I have it again portable now on the Steam Deck.  I can't get enough of that one....already racked up several achievements just on the first few stages of Story mode, including the Combo Master (get an "Out of this World Combo!") one which was a bit surprising.  SOR4 continues to be one of the absolute top-rank beatemups to me, especially with what was added in that dlc (survival mode, extra color options and characters).  

  15. Some very old slang that always made me laugh when I heard it---- "Don't get fresh with me, sister!"  That's real old stuff, like it would be from the black&white era shows....forgot where I heard it; probably just a Looney Tunes episode from Daffy....oh yeah and one episode of Jack Benny I remember him telling the annoying waiter "ok now you're being too fresh!" (*the annoying waiter is of course the greatest trolling character in the history of television--- Frank Nelson; that guy that would show up everywhere to troll Jack, usually saying his signature "yyyyyyEEEEEeessssssss?????" and Jack is like "oh no not THIS guy again...")

     

    Also---that thing they do from the days of dueling with pistols... where you see one take off a glove and slap the other dude with it... something about that just got me every time... like it's an extra little bit of disrespect because you're using a glove instead of your hand to slap the person...as if to say you're not even worthy of receiving the slap directly from my hand.  It would be hilarious if someone actually did that these days right before getting into a fight.

  16. That 4-day work week sounded cool at first but I don't like the way some places (like where I work) have implemented it already....by increasing the # of hours on the 4 days.  I suppose it's just unavoidable, really... basically if your weekly total of hours is 37.5, then instead of 7.5 per day....your new schedule is 9.5 hours for 3 days and one day at 9 hours.  That just didn't appeal to me....if I'm going to work a longer day I'd rather it be for the purpose of getting some overtime.  

     

    I was reminiscing again earlier today after playing some games on lunch----about how much MORE game time we have in the kid/teen years of life, especially for portable stuff: ....whenever your parent(s) are driving you around town somewhere = game time.  Church = game time.  At school, and the teacher left the room for a minute or two--> game time.  Lunchbreak = games.  ...and of course THE best day of school... the last day when there's no work to do, and maybe the teacher put a movie on = game time.  Then all summer break = game time.  Some people don't appreciate this until later in life but man... I was living it up and appreciated how great things were as they were happening; usually thinking "why would I ever want to grow up?  This is too much fun!"  ---though I did look forward to adulthood because of the money... I accurately predicted that I'd be basically the same, and still having fun with gaming and all that... except with a regular income to afford all the cool stuff I want.

  17. There was some hilarious scene in Family Guy that got posted a while back...

     

    Deaf people and farting.... I had never thought about this situation until seeing this....

     

    It would be interesting to ask them about what happens there... do they get extra nervous about how loud it may be to people that can hear?  Or...when they're living with a roommate, and they have to go take a dump... sometimes that can be an embarrassingly loud situation too and they wouldn't know. 

    ....and yeah that scene killed me when I first saw it 😆

     

    *Marlee was pretty damn hot in her prime; I haven't seen her recently though but she probably still looks good.
