Diablo 3----ok yeah, Crusader is one of the top picks to do that "Boss Mode" conquest (the challenge where you must kill most of the game's bosses within 20 minutes of starting a game session, on T10 difficulty... the hard part is finding some of them since a lot of areas have random layouts). I just did it again on Switch and got it cleared on the 2nd attempt (previously I did it on the playstation version this season). That build that lets you have constant access to "steed charge" (where you summon and ride a super-fast ghostly horse around the battlefield) makes it barely a problem since that ability is such a huge buff to movement speed. Now, on the Switch version of the game I just have 1 more challenge and that will be all challenges done for this season on there as well... first time I will have done all challenges for a season across 2 versions of the game. Hopefully my hardcore character survives; that "beat GR45 with no set items, on hardcore" one will be my 3rd and final conquest; it is specifically why I made this character. He's still just level 66 at the moment though. **would be nice if Lost Ark worked on Steam Deck; unless things changed recently, I think that's one of those games that just doesn't work. I think Wolcen works though, so I will eventually get that too. (*and unlike Lost Ark and so many other games...Wolcen can be played offline, btw)

some sales I noticed on Steam just now...a lot of stuff that is the usual suspect for holiday sales though.. Elden Ring = 41.99 Rogue Legacy 2 18.74 Moonscars = 15.99 Souldiers = 13.99 TMNT Cowabunga Collection = 29.99 Pixel Game Maker MV = 16.99 Fury Unleashed 5.99 Hollow Knight 7.49 Shadow of War 7.49 Left 4 Dead 2 = 0.99!

Alert-- Silent Night, Deadly Night 2 is coming up at 6 am [cst] on Shout Factory TV streaming. It's the movie that gave us the legendary "Garbage Day!" scene I recently got the Silent Night, Deadly Night collection blu-ray, though it only has parts 3, 4 and 5... part 3 was absolute trash, though....not even in a "so bad it's hilarious" kind of way. *Lainey Wilson update = she's up to 550k now on the 'gram.

It's been interesting to continue checking back on Lainey's follower count since it just keeps going...she's up to 535k now. back to the 80s for a second---from Ghostbusters....the hotness there to me was Annie Potts as their secretary. I would later be a bit disappointed that the stereotypical New Yorker sound is not her natural accent, as we'd later see in interviews and when she was on "Designing Women"...and yeah I watched that show simply because she was on it. 90s Hotness---besides the 2 legends Halle and Salma we had several others---Tyra Banks, Topanga (Danielle Fischel) from Boy Meets World, Natalie Imbruglia from the late 90s, Lisa Loeb, the ladies of En Vogue and TLC, Jennifer Lopez, Marissa Tomei was becoming more popular (*though she could fit in the 80s category; Different World debuted in 87), Rebecca De Mornay, Jaime Pressly, Lisa Marie Presley, Toni Braxton, Aaliyah. In 1992 we'd get the hottest Catwoman ever imo (from way back I'd consider Julie Newmar right behind her in rank)---Michelle Pfeiffer. There was Beverly Hills 90210 with Jennie Garth and Shannon Doherty...and later on a lot more hotties....then Melrose Place came out with an even better lineup of fine ass. X-Files came out with the latest fine ass redhead on tv in Gillian Anderson as Dana Scully. ...it was also the mid-90s when I randomly found Eva LaRue playing "Maria Santos Grey" on All My Children... still remember that shit like it was yesterday...it was a day off from school for some reason and I was channel-surfing... stopped short on ABC when I noticed this UNBELIEVABLE hotness on screen suddenly...another "godDAMN who is THAT?!" The show instantly became something I had to see regularly because she was just that damn gorgeous. Later she went on to be on CSI: Miami, so more people probably remember her from that.

Pam was great, but the real star of Baywatch for me was Nicole Eggert as "Summer". That was legendary PAWG action right there; that combo of her legs and ass was incredible. I recorded many of the episodes that featured Nicole...she was one of my favorite blondes on tv for sure. The 90s is when Halle and Salma took over for me; Halle debuted in 1991 thanks to Spike Lee's Jungle Fever, and another film she was in that I think was after that called Strictly Business. I was mesmerized from that point on, as Halle took over my #1 spot that Alyssa Milano held for so long.

Yeah it's like she either has a deal with Satan or is an actual vampire---Elvira even today is still hot, continuing to defy the full effects of The Wall. Some other notables---Marilu Henner and Lynda Carter---they became famous in the 70s but were still popular in the 80s; these were actually the first 2 women that caught my attention on tv back then in the way of "whoahhh who is THAT?!" Of course it helped that Lynda was half naked due to the WW costume. Oh yeah then there was Joyce DeWitt and Suzanne Somers.

ha, Lainey's powerlevel continues to increase; her follower count right now on the 'gram is 522k....that's up another 9,000 gained right there 😆 For those who were around and remember the 80s clearly---which I think is most of ya... what were your top picks for the hottest celebs of the era? There's a lot that come to mind right away but my top ranks were Alyssa Milano, Molly Ringwold, Phoebe Cates, Kelly LeBrock. Jamie Gertz ("Starr" from The Lost Boys), Kathy Ireland, Valerie Bertinelli...Janet Jackson, "Elvira" Cassandra Peterson and Jenn Connelly; those are the elite that come to mind immediately...then there's a strong 2nd tier: Jaclyn Smith, Phyliscia Rashad (the #1 tv MILF for me), Christina Applegate, Mia Sara, Demi Moore, Madonna (yep the Wall was unkind but remember how she looked back then? Sheeeittttt) Lisa Welchel (Blair from Facts of Life) and Vanessa Williams, Sandy Duncan..... and that redhead pop-singer Tiffany (Debbie Gibson was hot too but I preferred Tiffany)...and from MTV there was "Downtown" Julie Brown and Kennedy. Actually there's so many names that come to mind it may have been better to separate this into TV or Movie actress or singer categories....and I'm sure there's plenty I forgot to mention. Alyssa, Molly and Phoebe I mentioned right away were that unbeatable trinity that were above all others for me though. heh, it was 1 hell of a great time to grow up...constant bombardment from tv and movies of all this hotness... it was outstanding, the kind of eye-candy we were treated to whenever just randomly channel surfing or watching a movie.

So I got around to re-installing my data for Smash Ultimate; I haven't played this in a long time; about 1 or 2 years at least... I was pleasantly surprised to see my Mii characters are still in there! (on the system itself, all but 1 of the Miis were lost when I went to the new OLED) So my crew of weird, nasty ass characters like Crackbaby, Hugh Janus, Jewcan Sam, etc. are still on the roster! I had already started remaking some on the system. edit A few games I took note of on psn lately, btw... Nobody Saves the World = 16.24! (this game being on sale is rare for some reason) Senran Kagura = 11.99 Vampyr = 9.99 Miles Morales Spiderman = 19.99

haha since I made that last post about 2 hours ago, Lainey got another 4,000 followers on instagram. On another note--Shout Factory TV is running an ALF cartoon marathon today. I remember this but I never bothered to watch it before. In the live-action show, I always thought it was hilarious how they ended the series on a downer... at the end, the CIA finally captured ALF and that was that.

Yep, Lainey knows what's up by now, of course. https://www.instagram.com/p/CmNdOvgj9zI/ As always... tabs will be kept.

Oh, time for another Death Battle though *hell yeah the fans know what's up; 2 battles coming up were chosen by them I guess...one of which will be Alex Mercer vs. Cole from Infamous! I forgot the full extent of Cole's abilities but I'd already be more inclined (and biased, tbh) to say Alex Mercer wins there. That dude survived a nuclear explosion in the first game....really, would Cole even be able to keep up? The more I remember about "Mercer" in particular, he's got it all in terms of the basic superhuman stuff---superhuman speed, agility and strength...at least strong enough to throw large vehicles around like they are toys... he could rip the doors off helicopters and the top lid section of a tank with no effort as well....this is in addition to his main ability of morphing his body to become pretty much anything.

Oh yeah; from what I've heard/read about him (mostly from Comicstorian and other channels' vids about him), he's even more game-breaking than a Kryptonian..... I'd enjoy seeing a Blue Marvel show or movie... preferably a show. Someone's bound to bring this guy to live action at some point in the near future.

*^yeah I have Dracula Untold in my collection... it surprised me that so many people didn't seem to like it for whatever reason. I also didn't quite get the hate people had for the failed "Dark Universe" (*though choosing to make Bride of Frankenstein as the next planned thing was an odd and foolish choice, imo....when you'd expect regular Frankenstein's monster to show up first)--- Also---I finally saw the Tom Cruise Mummy at Walmart the other day...BUT it was just DVD! Once you go 4k it's hard to go back down to watching things in mere DVD quality. I might get the DVD only if there's no other choice... still it's tough to find. Once that movie was out of the "new release" section it's like it just disappeared from the universe....never to return since I'm the only person that liked it. -- So Blue Marvel vs the Phoenix Force?!? 😮

woooo Andy Allo has gained a bit more curves lately....oh yes I still keep tabs on that one... https://www.instagram.com/p/CmZbyD_sVO1/?hl=en Also a little dose of Nina the Pineapple showing off that legendary caboose https://www.instagram.com/p/CmCWbDEJm6E/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/p/CmW2yV0pCSq/?hl=en ....annd more delicious Sunpi

Ohhh yeah... this is another example... I just laugh whenever other people (black of course...men and women) make some joke or witty remark about white women NOT having ass, like "Flat-back Becky"....it's like their mindset is still stuck in the 70s or early 80s. The white women have evolved like Pokemon since then and naturally have a good situation going on back there....it's the whole reason that term "PAWG" got invented. It's mostly just the girls of the general "Asian" category that are known for having 0.0% ass now. ...but DAMN this one in the tweet clip looks incredible. I'll have to look her up... ...also not surprising that they apparently never show this on whatever show she's on, since that's just how modern mainstream shows/movies are now, since the prime directive is that the "male gaze" is an awful thing that must not be indulged to any significant degree. ...That's another reason the internet is great, y'know? ---it solves bitch-ass new-era problems like that. We still get to see good tits and ass whether they fuckin like it or not.

So, Cogan's latest was ranking the top 5 vamps in movies... I assume he'll most likely do a video for tv vampire rankings later The first top tier that came to mind for me was definitely Akasha, the "Queen of the Damned"....thousands of years old and with a look and a wave of her hand she could set others on fire....this is in addition to the other abilities you'd expect like super strength and speed, healing, etc.

It's strange...and sad that there's some gamers out there that are so damn lazy they'd rather pay for content as opposed to earning it like the good ol' days... yep, I happen to know someone who was like that....e.g.--"man, I wish they'd just put those cosmetics up for sale." -referring to things like the cosmetic wings in D3 (since he didn't want to do the "work" of just playing the damn game...come to think of it; he never really did). It's disgusting, and that kind of attitude is why the industry is going the way it is right now; the suits in the game dev/publishing companies certainly love it, I'm sure. (e.g.---"oh...they'd rather spend money on this shit they used to get in-game for free? Well alright then...niiice.") Ancient Vaults in D3 are insane payouts---I wasn't even really aware of these until recently; didn't know you get a "different" (and better) Vault if the puzzle ring is ancient.... people are running those as much as possible due to the holiday event at the moment. The payout I noticed on my most recent one was so crazy; yep I took note of it ---- 388,144,763 gold on a Torment 16 difficulty Ancient Vault... with the usual crafting materials including 202 Death Breaths.

Ohhh it never gets old, laughing at so many of these ladies out there with outrageous expectations... One woman's answer regarding a car that's "a little more realistic?"-----was a Ferrari. 🤣 **This reminds me--- Fresh & Fit have that female delusion calculator so often on their podcast... I found out there's a male delusion calculator as well! It's interesting to see the results when you start entering some "specifications" of your ideal woman: https://realitycalc.com/ One set of specifications I just entered yielded 28% probability, actually.

ha, that brought back memories... I had a Geocities website. I went out of my way to make it as wild and horribly disgusting as possible. I had pics ripped straight from Goregallery and some perverted stuff too, like that infamous "tubgirl" picture....oh yes, I had it on my page, along with some other nasty ones, along with my ranting and raving about random shit....basically what I'd imagine my own shock-jock "show" to be if I had one. I should've saved a snapshot of how it all looked...those were great times. (**the tubgirl pic itself; I still have that... sadly the other ones are gone though, or I just don't know where they are.) There were other "make your own page" services too, also with easily understood page-builder apps; I had a page at "Homestead" and another one called "Delphi".

They actually did it----so "Supernatural", one of my favorite shows, and one of the only genuinely good things to come from the CW network.... I saw the "Complete Series" box set at Walmart earlier today!! Hell yeah I'll be getting that a bit later for sure (too much damn Christmas spending going on at the moment). Of course it's insane since that show went for 15 seasons....so it's $150. Hell yes I must have this. ...sure would be nice to have another real vacation that is not Christmas at the moment. That damn "holiday" just becomes too much of a hassle as an adult.

ha, as long as this season has been going on... I didn't even know to use the angelic crucibles on puzzle rings until now...it makes the ring technically an "ancient" which means the Vault you open with it is wayyyy more lucrative..... this has suddenly become a relevant issue in the game due to the holiday event that just started on Friday (goblins occasionally drop "presents" which have a lot of good stuff, including extremely rare wing cosmetics and pets)... On another note though ---haha I just hooked up my old Gamecube and oh yes---it STILL works just fine! I see my Viewtiful Joe save file info shows the last time I played it was the afternoon of 10/02/2005. I still have all my games, I think... oh yeah I'm already loading up Phantasy Star Online... Oh yessssss it WORKS the memories... I haven't seen this on my tv or played it in such a long time

Offline, portable gaming awesomeness once again----today I had quite a long wait while the car maintenance was going on...of course I had the Switch with me... *unlike* the PC version of Diablo 3... I was able to play the Switch version of D3 perfectly fine in the waiting area, no online connection needed. Every minute of that privilege was so delicious. I suppose a pc D3 fanboy could theoretically use a laptop with that place's wifi signal (*a situation I don't quite trust, btw), but still... with Switch I just pull the system out of the case and hit that "home" button to wake it up.... and immediately get into some D3 greater rifts, no need to connect to anything. I got quite a few GRs in with my necromancer; I forgot the off-season one has a build that isn't fully perfected but I made some good progress while waiting on my car. I was going to play some TMNT as well but the wait wasn't as long as they said it would be. Really, to me this ultimate freedom that the Switch provides is the ideal gaming situation. You could be in the middle of nowhere and if that system still has a charge, you can play something. I don't have to be connected for the games to be playable....that is how the fuck it should be. Some years ago I had a car charger as well but that stopped working in about a year or 2... which is annoying to say the least since I'd expect a simple device like that to last quite a bit longer than 1 or 2 years.

I was waiting on what the holiday event announcement was for D3

^yeah, that one was especially tough when the screen flips. I consider it to be a fluke that I even got past that eventually... the other parts of the fight are fine, but the screen flip part makes it way more difficult. I need to get the other power-ups/items for sure... I have the lobber, spread-shot and the green homing shot, and those 3 supers + the dash move..... that dash has been so crucial; I can't imagine going through this game without it, really... it's such a strong asset in the player's options of what to do at any given moment. ...which seems like most games, actually. Whenever there's a "fast dash" (or better yet a teleport) move I'm always going for that. Dash and Teleport are 2 basic things in gaming that are just inherently top tier options, usually.

Man, that story about Meg the Male Horse and Torey blew up into quite the juicy mess lately....this guy and other channels have been all over it like flies on shit of course:
