I went to start a new playthrough on Extreme, but it turns out there's a European Extreme in this release. Game over on alert, huh? I finished 2 with that setting, and that was a much harder game in my opinion. So sure, why not?

I'm following some guides this time to make sure I get everything, again no kills, and then I'll do a victory lap playthrough with all the stuff I've unlocked.

Except... I guess I can't really go nuts with the weapons, can I? Oh well.

Oh wow, it's ESPECIALLY not hard with these extra camos. I'm not sure if they rolled over from my last save or if it was because I chose I like MGS3. But Desert Tiger and that one woodland camp are downright overpowered, lol.

Ah, here's the first thing (other than the damn Kerotans) I missed: the Zombie face paint is behind the building Sokolov was in in the Virtuous Mission. I bet there was a high camera there in Snake Eater. Probably why I never missed it in those days.

Walkability isn't just about sidewalks. It's also about nearby access to things. In your case, it's not walkable, as opposed to some notion you seem to have that it's walkable but you can't walk it anyway, which is absurd.

Good call. Looks like mine does. In the "cosmetics" department I didn't know it had. Maybe I'll check by the pharmacy.

Also, just to double check

I thought clear nail polish was pretty much clear nail polish, but as it turns out, a different tutorial I looked up distinguishes between nail base and top coat. I'm assuming there's a good reason to care about the distinction.

The bottle I have is nail base. Well, and French white.

Putting in next to zero effort reselling games we already own is a terrible indicator of whether we want you to make something new.

Dear gamers

Buying their rehashes doesn't not send them the message that you want something new. It sends them the message that you want more rehashes.

As opposed to games that never got patched in the past.
For starters, that isn't strictly true. That one N64 WWE game is probably the most famous example. You could mail in your cartridge and they'd send you the fixed version back.

For continuers, they were a lot less prone to ship them broken in the first place. Perhaps because patching wasn't considered a possibility so they followed more rigorous testing standards in-house, or perhaps because the games were simpler and consequently easier to test thoroughly.

Here's the thing about the Mandela effect. It's never anything outlandish that simply won't make logical sense.
The things that are purported to happen are plausible.
Mandela could have died.
The Fruit of the Loom logo could have a cornucopia. It wouldn't be out of place.
Tinkerbell could have dotted the I in Disney.
It's hard to remember correctly such small and mundane things, or in the case of Mandela, things that sort of disappeared from the public eye.
That's because the they them their people who are conspiring to merge realities are more careful with details that everyone is likely to notice.

I think the author was having a stroke while he was writing it because he frequently makes zero sense.

Or else he'll be like "subtracting these two value would be disastrous" and I don't know why and I'm scared to try it.

But once I do figure out what the hell he's talking about, I like the subject matter.

You're reminding me of a t-shirt a kid I knew in high school used to wear.

It has a squirrel wielding a stick and the text "protect your nuts." I could never quite figure out the joke. I think it's obviously a play on genitals, but even so it just seems like there should be more to it. Or else the absurdity was the punchline.

Anyway, that has stuck with me ever since, because I couldn't figure it out.

I can't pass up an opportunity to shill for the Ducktales reboot, and how it gives Donald a much-needed character makeover as a good-natured, long-suffering father figure traumatized by the loss of his sister, whose anger issues stem from feeling alone in the world due to the fact that literally no one can understand him.
I like the episode where he gets the speech device and everyone's like O_O at his motivational quotes/speeches.

Yeah, Scarface has not aged well for me. I generally roll my eyes when critics say that mob / crime movies 'glorify the lifestyle,' but they honestly have a point when it comes to Scarface. Live fast, make money, kill anyone who crosses you, go out in a blaze of glory; even if it was clearly the movie's intent to illustrate both the rise and fall of Tony Montana like any good mob / crime movie should, the high points were just too alluring for the type of real-life people who are just as shallow and irredeemable as Tony was.
I dunno man, I'm actually pretty fresh off of my first watch and I gotta say, I dunno what high points you could be referring to. By the time he's a trijillionaire, he's pretty much dead and everyone hates him. I guess for a while there, he's street rich and buys the car on a whim and stuff. I guess that was nice.
