Lurker > Prestoff

He should've killed Season 2 of Velma.

He didn't go off the JK Rowling end, but holy shit it's people like him that conflate anti-semetism with criticizing the Israeli Government. And the only thing I will comment is that there is A LOT of these types in the entertainment industry in general. There is an absolute bias in our media that is more "pro-Israel" than "pro-Palestine". My issue with the "free Palestine" movement is that a lot of the people lack optics like that one girl saying that they're going to murder those politicians in Bakersfield.

I just assumed the cards were somehow magnetized to the duel discs for convenience sakes.

I didn't find out until some time last year that Nimrod was actually a mighty hunter.

Nimrod is described in Genesis 10:812 as the first on earth to be a mighty man. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. The only other references to Nimrod in the Bible are in Micah 5:6, where Assyria is called the land of Nimrod, and in 1 Chronicles 1:10, which reiterates his might.

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

It's only because of Bugs Bunny that we associate the name with buffoonery.

Oh thanks for recontextualizing that word for me. I'm guessing Bugs Bunny used that as an insult against Elmer "nimrod" because he's a hunter (as the word means). I definately learned something new today lol.

4kids yugioh and yu yu hakusho

to be clear tho ygo doesnt hit its stride til sometime into battle city when dan green starts going HARD

This will always be my favorite performance from Dan Green lol.

The only voices I dislike are the ones that are clearly trying to fake a high pitch "kawaii" voice, both sub and dub. My ears can't take it when they scream.

I watched that terrible movie she directed and starred in. It was a acid trip for sure, but my wife enjoyed it so I guess the main target audience was women or something.

I called Magneto being alive, but I had a friend explained to me who the "Bastion" guy was and the moment he said something about Nimrod (hilarious name) the only thing that came to mind was Marvel Snap of me blowing him up lol. But yeah this is a direction that actually feels like there's consequences in this universe, which is great. I'm on the edge of my seat on what happens next.

My comic book friend is also saying that Onslaught might make an appearance because of the state of mind Magneto and Xavier is in or something.

...what good would that do?

Apparently it was confirmed it was a false flag.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was trolls doing this. However, it wouldn't be out of the possibility for Nintendo to do this either.

Or just its career?

It is a jack of all trades master of none so it makes sense.

I just remember a lot of hype for the game and then nothing. I didn't get it because it was a PS5 exclusive, so maybe it will get more life once it eventually releases on PC.

The shit post side of me wants to say yay, but the reality is the reasoning they're using is very stupid. "National security" when it is known that even American social media apps sends their information over to the government as well.

That was pretty well done.

Turbam posted...

Yeah, then he got up 3 days later

It was super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Even Nioh 1 and 2 had more discussions than this game.

I did hear the yen is weaker, so I can see people wanting to buy stuff in Japan.

Yeah I doubt the Korean developers would have any idea about the connotation, it was probably just coincidence.

The demo did not impress me one bit, so I'm not surprised by the score. At least I heard the movie is really good.

Is that the dump truck from Jojo Part 5? I can't even read it because it's so small.

It's the worst when you gotta go number 2. At least number 1 you can stand up. I really only take a number 1 sitting down when I use a restroom at my house because it's just cleaner that way.

Big maybe if it comes out on PC and it was on sale with a heavy discount.

GiftedACIII posted...

Finally read it. A bit more lowkey than the previous chapters but I like the group's chemistry. Charmingman is proving rather competent as a new protagonist. Cliffhanger ending.

The whole cast in general is the most fun I had in a long time since Part 6. Unlike Jojolion, this part is starting out pretty strong and making itself more unique going for the "heist" genre...which will eventually devolve into being a battle shonen eventually.

Dungeater posted...

ok tru, im sure the one person who gets to play has lots of fun with that

Yeah the only true way to interact with someone in Modern Yugioh is with hand traps, so pray your opening hand contains at least one to disrupt your opponent.

But yeah ultimately Yugioh is fun for people who love the "end game" portion of Yugioh and likes to wombo combo. It's what differentiates itself from other TCG's and at least Konami isn't running the game to the ground like Hasbro is doing to MtG.

I agree that XB2 has the best combat out of the three XB games, but the game does a really shitty job in explaining its mechanics to you. I had to watch an exhaustive youtube video to breakdown the combat for me to actually enjoy what they were going for. I also dislike the unnecessary gacha system, but I agree that it wasn't done with nefarious/predatory intentions...otherwise they would've given you the option to pay real money to make it faster.

As for the cast of characters, sorry but I greatly dislike anime tropes and this game really basks itself with those anime tropes. XB1 had some of them, but none of it was as cringey as XB2. I did enjoy the twist in XB2 in comparison to XB3. XBX is my to go game, even though that game is plagued with problems itself.

As someone who frequently takes reviews into consideration, I'll never understand the obsession over scores.

I agree as well. It's more important to see what their pros and cons are rather than just blindly looking at a score because at the end of the day it's all subjective so trying to put a score on art is going to vary greatly from one person to another.

I don't know a damn thing about the lore for Warhammer, but I have a friend who is really into the lore and he said Warhammer is infamous for retconning their stories and lore all the time. To me, this just sounds like anything that lasts for a long time, you get new creative heads and writers that just change things as they see fit. I guess my friends biggest criticism for this is just how lazily they went about it instead of trying to fit it into the story or something.

IGN gave it a 7/10

From the sound of it, they didn't do themselves any favor trying to compare their story and characters to Nier Automata. With that said, I'm glad the gameplay is still solid and digital foundry said the game runs really well on the PS5.

I liked what I played in the demo, but I definitely have a feeling it's going to be a case of Lies of P where it's good, but not genre defining enough to stand out. However, I'm primarily a PC gamer now so I won't even get the game until it comes out on PC and it's on sale.

Or just its career.

bump

Really sounds more like a box for collectors than for anyone who actually wants to play competitive Yugioh. A lot of the cards in that box are garbage in comparison to modern yugioh.

Is this the one who murdered that woman after her mother passed?

No, that was a different case. It was 2 teen squatters who murdered the woman and then stuffed her body in a duffel bag. Good thing is that they got found and are being charged.

https://people.com/2-squatters-charged-with-murder-of-nyc-woman-found-in-duffel-bag-at-apartment-8635922

The one happening in my opening post was just a case of a squatter using the "squatters right" in a bad faith way.

Good burgers, terrible fries.

QUEENS - A squatter who rented out rooms in a woman's million-dollar home in Queens pleaded not guilty to a slew of charges Thursday.
This came a month after the homeowner was arrested for trying to change the locks.

According to the Queens District Attorney, back in February, Brian Rodriguez forced his way back into Adele Andaloro's home after she changed the locks, allegedly pushing his way into the house as she tried to hold the door closed.

When he claimed that he was a legal tenant and Andaloro was trying to legally evict him, police had no choice but to remove Andaloro from her home.

After he'd signed a lease for $3,200 per month on the home and moved in subletters, Rodriguez claimed, he realized something was amiss when Andaloro showed up.
"I need a month or two to get them out," he told the Post before his arrest. "I am ready to give the house back to Ms. Adele. I'll take the L on this one. The house really beat me up."

His attorney Jerald Levine told Fox News Digital that Rodriguez was innocent.

"Everything is on the record all I can tell you is he's not guilty," Levine said.. "I'm not getting involved with the papers."

"I may end up in handcuffs today if a man shows up here and says I have illegally evicted him," Andaloro told ABC 7. "I said 'let him take me to court as I've been told to take him to court' because today I'm not leaving my house."

Rodriguez, 35, faces charges of second-degree burglary, fourth-degree grand larceny, fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, second-degree criminal trespass and fourth-degree criminal mischief, the office wrote.

Assistant District Attorney William Jorgenson asked Judge Toni Cimino to jail Rodriguez on $100,000 bail until his next court date on May 13, and for a restraining order to keep him away from Andaloro. Cimino granted the order of protection but released Rodriguez a repeat offender with burglary and narcotics convictions, the Post reported on supervised home confinement.

Basically that one guy, Brian Rodriguez, finally got charged over that viral video of Andaloro got arrested when she tried to change the locks to her house that she inherited from her mother. Apparently now he is claiming that he's a victim of a fraud, supposedly signing a lease from someone and paying $3,200 a month. Looks like the judge didn't believe him.

Everything about that post screams parody, but it might be a case of Poe's Law as well.

Sounds more like the live action Fairly Odd Parents show where the fairies are barely in the show. But yeah I don't think anyone will be missing out skipping this show.

Will you be able to apply for financial aid? You're 92 units in already, would be a waste to not try to go for your BS degree.

Damn

What are you trying to major in?

I guess I got used to it because it taste fine to me. Even the "premium" chocolates don't taste any better, but I rarely eat Chocolate as is.

A robbery spree network to steal clothes from laundromats?

Doubt it's only laundromats. They probably steal all over the place or something. Supposedly it's a huge problem in our city.

Damn dude, I was half expecting this to be a roll of some kind. That sucks, hope it gets sorted.

Oh wow, I thought this topic died lol.

I got a call today and apparently they caught the lady and I'm going to be going in to identify her from a lineup sometime this week. Supposedly, she's part of a huge robbery spree network in the city where I live and the police is trying to crack down on it. So yeah it looks like it's going to get sorted real soon lol.

Just report it and move on. Youtube is very slow when trying to catch bad actors. Ultimately it's their responsibility, not yours to worry about.

So are we getting a sequel to the Shadow of War anytime soon?

It did have one of the coolest boss music

As someone who grew up with Yugioh since its inception, I thinks its much better where its at now. Not perfect, not even close, but its way more fun now imo.

I agree. The way Yugioh is now is much more fun than it was in OG Yugioh. Playing the old yugioh games made me appreciate the fast pace of modern Yugioh...even though I still think it's not a well designed TCG in general.

There's a scene where a girl gets cat called by a bunch of old pervs and she told them off.

I'm sure that's the reason the little incels are mad.

Yeah, a lot of the "woke" talking points is that supposedly the localization changed a lot of the dialogue, this being one of those things where it wasn't present in the original Japanese dialogue.
