Coke is better than Pepsi 99% of the time, except in one specific scenario: immediately after eating a bowl of Fruity Pebbles, an ice cold Pepsi is incredibly delicious and refreshing. Not after a bowl of cereal in general mind you, just specifically Fruity Pebbles.

I personally like the flavor of BBQ and Ranch mixed.

There's a restaurant here that calls that "campfire sauce" and yeah, it's pretty damn good

Ranch dressing doesn't belong anywhere near a plate of hot wings. It just drowns the heat and defeats the purpose. Blue cheese dressing, however, is acceptable because the sharp and tangy taste compliments the spice, but even then it should just be used sparingly without fully dunking the damn wing in it before every bite.

What always stuck with me is that the bible implies that Jesus was rich af.

Remember he had a ministry and one of his apostles was his treasurer. Broke people don't need a treasurer. On palm Sunday he rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, well 2,000+ years ago in the middle east that was luxury travel, like the freakin' pope mobile. His robe was also a very expensive and valuable piece of clothing at the time, like a designer suit today.

On palm Sunday he basically did the equivalent of what today would be driving into Jerusalem in a Bentley while wearing a nice suit while his ministry was earning him a net worth, and people think Jesus, if he existed, would have been poor for some reason

No. Not only do I not have enough information to know if they're just picky Vs. having some sort of medical condition that warrants a restricted diet, but it's also just plain none of my business regardless.

I agree a little with ya TC that I would probably try to encourage them to try something, but I won't push it any further beyond a simple yes/no.

"Wite-Out" (without the H) is a brand name.
It's actually called correction fluid. But it's one of those things were the brand name somehow became the general term. Like even Puffs brand tissues are refereed to as Kleenex, and generic adhesive bandages are still referred to as band-aids

Specifically on the original Genesis version of Sonic 2, I can't get all the chaos emeralds anymore. I can on the mobile and Origins versions, since I'm so used to the HD versions of the special stages that the grainy looking original is a completely unplayable mess now and I have no idea how I was ever able to do that when I was younger

There is something to be said about the correlation between proper nutrition and feeing better in general. But there could still be a variety of factors in all of this.

Are you just "feeling a little tired," or are you genuinely having difficulty just getting out of bed in the morning and performing simple and routine tasks? If you have extreme exhaustion paired with mental fog, memory problems, sensitivity to light and sound, you may want to consider talking to your doctor about chronic fatigue syndrome.

Your home is a protected asset during bankruptcy.

1) Get a mortgage on a million dollar home
2) File for Bankruptcy
3) After everything settles, sell the home for a million dollar profit

the game has too many zones and acts that are just really boring, like sandopolis, marble garden, carnival night, flying batter (no idea why people love this outside of the theme), and a couple of mediocre acts in otherwise-good zones. still a good game but mania's way better and more consistent

3 started the trend of having bad bosses after nearly every level, but at least most of them are on the mindless end of bad

I disagree, I love all those zones you listed besides Marble Garden, and even by then I usually have Super Sonic already and it plus the fact that there's a lightning shield pretty early makes the zone actually fun at that point imo (unless you get crushed somewhere which is an obvious hinderance that affects all Sonic games). I do, however, share your praise of Mania.

But imo the trend of bad boss fights really started in Sonic 1. Like the Labyrinth boss that just runs away from you for example

Even if nothing else was different, the boss fight with Mecha Sonic, that one thing alone makes a Knuckles playthrough 100% worth it.

Just finished a Knuckles playthrough for the first time ever btw, not believing there was much of a point beforehand, and I was wrong about that

Studiopolis because of its visual aesthetics and numerous references to Daytona.
also the music nice

Good picks. I'm also a fan of Ice Cap from S3, and the original music for that as well. A bit disappointed with the alternate soundtrack used in Origins

Sorta. I'm all for shorter games as a lot of these 100-hour grind-fests are just hard to stay into when it comes to my every day life now. Like I just picked up Tears of the Kingdom for the first time in over a month yesterday, and I had absolutely no clue or idea what I was doing on it before. It's one of those games, and BOTW was the same way, where it's like, if I have a free hour to play it's not really worth doing, because you can't accomplish anything meaningful in an hour, you need a solid 3-5 hours to be able to just sit and play uninterrupted. And real life just gets in the way of that unfortunately. So I find myself constantly going back things like classic 2D platformers like the Genesis Sonic games, Sonic Mania, 8-bit Mario, things I can just pick up and play in one sitting even if there's nothing new to discover in any of it anymore.

But what exactly is meant by "worse graphics?" Because not everything has to be state of the art hyper realistic or anything, but I mean, don't deliberately make the game look like shit either lol
