A miserable pile of secrets.

to be fair, my earliest christmas memory was me waking up at 4 in the morning, going downstairs, opening all my christmas presents and heading back to bed. My parents were livid. Mom just bought a brand new camcorder to video tape the entire thing and I had to ruin it for both of them.

haven't played enough of the other ones, but I'd probably pick Minish Cap. I love that game.

Just remember, that any time something says to cook at 425, you should pre-heat at 450. So when you open the oven door to put your meal in the heat drops to about 425. Then you adjust your oven temperature to 425.

Little life hack.

The problem with OLED is that its very sceptible to burn-in. It will be interesting to see how they address this.

Juni Taisen was fairly good, and the second light novel is out but not translated, might be getting turned into season 2
Strangely enough I really got into Sands of Destruction. The end is kind of iffy, but its alright

in the words of Ted from Scrubs... girlfriends gonna get paiiiidddd. Sorry she had to go through such a horrible thing. No one should be forced into that kind of situation. I hope she gets paid royally for that.

Die Hard is a Christmas movie.... it happens on Christmas Eve, the entire plot is about an ex-husband meeting his estranged wife at a christmas party, and an evil man ala the grinch tries to ruin it for everyone. Is it a traditional holiday movie? no. But what is tradition anyways.

There are some nice qol changes, but I do have 1 major problem at least from what I could see from the trailer. While you have a place to thread your cord while in kickstand mode, you still cannot plug the damn thing in.

I literally do not understand why you would play a melee centric character in a LOOTER shooter. Like you get all the legendary weapons to not use it??? Lmao. If there were melee weapons you can collect then maybe

There are items that boost melee damage, and sometimes its for the challenge.

whoever did the art for Okami.

I mean... if a game is going to be voice acted I would prefer the entire thing be voiced instead of just parts. Mostly though I'd rather play a game on mute with just the text sounds and background music.

If anyone wants an idea of what not to do... go look at Arc The Lad: End of Darkness. The last Arc the Lad game for a reason. Halfway through a cutscene the music just stops. And then the sounds stop. So all your left with is no audio. Frustrating as all hell.

I can fix that in about 2-3 weeks. Left hand always on ASDF, Right hand always on JKL; Always keeping your index fingers on what I call the guide keys(F and J), the ones with the little bumps on them. As long as they are there you will instinctively return your hands/fingers to those keys.

Remember that a keyboard is called a QWERTY keyboard for a reason. Those keys are the ones from top left to top middle. Next, remember You I Owe Pee, which represent the final letters on the top row. I have no funny sentences for the bottom row. But keep your right thumb on the space button at all times.

Then its just practice. Over and Over. Hundreds to Thousands of times, gradually speeding up how fast you type until you surpass my current speed of typing which is roughly 95-100 wpm.

Actually, your looking for a good typing game and are into Pokemon, this might be for you:

Because Pokemon have such varying names, you can practice all the letters of the alphabet while working on your typing as well.

cuh that's a pretty broad assumption that people who listen to those artists/bands will listen to Taylor Swift. I could listen to an entire Britany Spears album from the 90s and still not give a shit about Taylor Swift. One thing isn't linked to the other.

If you like her music, good on you. I also would never associate the words "Hip Hop" with Taylor Swift. That's like calling Nickelback a metal band. You just don't do it.

The graphics were the exact same. Maybe being on a white moon was bland but so was being on the ground for all the other games.
I'm probably the only one who enjoyed the zero gravity jump aspect. But it wasn't bad because you had a ground pound and it was halo physics.
Story wise yes it was still better than 3 honestly. You got to see the whole reason why 2 happened and it was really entertaining.

It's not just that. It's just the overall color palette. Somehow they managed to make every color blend together, which I still can't understand because its Borderlands....

I don't mind the zero gravity bit, but other games also did that, and imo better.

No it's terrible the story is ass.
(And the character weapon screen lags so god damn much it's unacceptable and unplayable coming from someone on a base xbox one idk if they ever fixed it).

1 to presequel were perfect idk 3 did nothing for me.

Pre-sequel was far worse than 3. The story was alright, but visually it was god awful. Being on the moon sucked.

I've never used one but honestly, I don't see what's wrong with a regular keyboard.

Nothing wrong with it, if that's what you enjoy using. But speaking as someone who has had a good 5-6 mechanical keyboards the past 10 or so years, it feels entirely different to a regular keyboard. The keys have a good amount of spring to them, the noise it makes when your typing just feels good and if I'm speaking honestly, its improved my typing substantially. I went from 50-60 words a minute to about 90-100 after some practice with it.

Cheap keyboards just don't feel right anymore. There is a middle ground, and that's maybe 30-40 dollar cheap keyboards. But never will I ever purchase a 10 dollar keyboard.

As for headphones, I can't go back to cheap headphones anymore. Mind you, I don't think I'll ever spend 10 grand on a pair of headphones unless I get famous, but I have 2 pairs of mid-price headphones (Sennheiser 598, and Audio Technica ATH-PRO5X) and its just so much nicer. A warranty on both for full replacements, replaceable cords and the sound quality is just amazing. Not to mention that my hair doesn't get stuck in the adjusters like cheap pairs.

I have 2 major problems with the game.

The first is gun damage. There are times when I'll get a hitmarker, but no damage will be dealt. Case in point, I was practicing before the round actually started and I used a pistol on an afk player. Of the 13 shots I fired, all registered, but only 3 dealt damage. Obviously I can't kill anyone because its the warm-up before the actual game, but still. At the very least all the shots should have dealt damage.

My other issue is the skins. In order to get any of the skins, I have to pay money for them. And it isn't 2-3 dollars. I could live with that. Even 5 dollars I could live with. It's costing at least 12-13 bucks per skin, and the store if your buying the so called "v-bucks", is set in increments where your forced to buy more than you'll actually use. The skin could cost 1100 and 1 stack of "v-bucks" is 1000.

Minor inconveniences but they get frustrating in succession.

Ben Franklin was doing electricity experiments well before Tesla and invented the Lightning Rod.

But there's also this which predates Ben Franklin.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baghdad_Battery

Franklin discovered that lightning was made up of electricity. And while he did create the lightning rod, a czech scientist named Prokip Divis invented something similar by accident prior to the official version.

its alright. It isn't great by any stretch of the imagination, and the only dlc that I actually liked was Guns, Love and Tentacles. The dlc that focused on Kreig felt like a poor mans Bunkers and Badasses.

Average run for me. I tend to jumble words when I'm typing as I type fairly fast and my brain auto tries to type the next pokemon instead of the one I'm on. I do this way too much lol.

I don't like conflict, but that said, I am technically trained to defend myself. 2nd degree Black belt in TKD, although that was nearly 20 years ago and I was 100 lbs lighter.

I'd like to get back into that kind of stuff, but I'm extremely broke atm.

Canada isn't Americas hat. America is the ground on which Canada walks on, hence why Ontario is shaped like a boot.

Just having a bit of fun, try not to be offended.

Whole list? Nice I'll try and beat your time! :D

you probably will. I have sleep apnea and only managed to get 4 hours of sleep last night even with my machine. Think I have to clean it tonight, as the seal kept unsticking. It really affects my mood and memory.

tried it again, got as far as this. Probably as fast as I'll go right now.

We have a few Popeyes here in North Carolina.

Anyway I like Zaxby's chicken fingers and Hardee's chicken biscuits, their fingers are good too.

In the states you do, I live in Canada. Popeyes hasn't made it here yet.

they have succked for years now doesnt matter which location you go to they are all the same

just shows my age. I'm 35, so I remember in the early 90s being excited to get KFC.

sad thing is... KFC used to be amazing. They stopped seasoning heavily, and I know in my location they stopped the crunchy chicken altogether.

I think I can still get it down further. I just woke up and my brain isn't functioning properly atm. I need coffee before my brain stops mistyping things.

depends on where you live. Canada has 3 fast food chicken places. KFC, Popeyes, and Mary Browns on the east coast. I'm partial to Mary Browns myself. Their chicken pop-ins while stupid expensive is really good. Course I never had Popeyes before as I live on the east coast and we don't have popeyes here. We only just got a 5 guys, had it, stupid expensive but worth the price.

To be fair, I have a memory problem so one of the ways I tried to learn things was by repeating it. I only memorized the first 151 after about a couple hundred times of doing it.

I did the first 3 rows in order. If it wasn't so late I could probably finish it closer to 10:30 on the clock.

Lions don't have a fucking spear on their face either.

They don't. But they do attack in large numbers. The one video I was referencing had something like 7 lions attacking 1 hippo and the hippo just kept walking like they weren't even there. The hippos outer skin is extremely thick.
