I got detention for being late to lunch in 6th grade. That school was anal about literally everything.

Then in high school, the hallways made a square shape and there's a library with multiple entrances in the middle so cutting through the library saves a lot of time. However, for some reason, the principal banned cutting through the library in-between classes (wtf?). I was running late one day so I did it anyway and got in trouble. I know they warned me and all but c'mon that's a horseshit rule.

I probably would if I could but one perk of working overnight is not having to deal with customers at all (at least if I'm not working overtime and I see them in the morning)!

I hate my job too. I work overnight at Walmart, it's very bleh. The only way I've been able to put up with that place is due to two of my coworkers that I love, but of course they just had to go and quit/get new jobs and abandon me. =[ I have to set the mods there and without those two coworkers, I'm stuck with the only other person on the mod team and he is incompetent as hell. I'm so ready for a new job haha

I hope you manage to find a new, more enjoyable job too!

You almost became trailer trash

I'm pretty sure when he retreats into his shell, you can still see the bottom of it.

Maybe his shell is alive and it just eats him whenever he wants to retreat.

I used to hate reddit but I've found myself browsing it more and more lately. I like when subreddits have a nice design that don't look like a garbled mess.

Unfortunately my vacation ends this week and it's back to work next week. D=

But congrats on your job position and everything else! Sounds like a lot of fun

That's quite the list haha although I agree with some points. Anything negative about the Blue Coins I agree with, they are horrible in every way. Yoshi's that are native to a tropical island that die instantly in water is a dumb idea). And it is annoying that only certain missions have 100 coins in them (I think the only time this is an issue in 64 is Dire Dire Docks).

I don't remember having too many camera problems other than one of the rooms in Sirena Beach hotel with pink Boos.

For Mario's moves, I feel the only useful move that was removed was his jump kick. I rarely if ever used his punch kick combo or his breakdance kick (as amusing as that one is). I'll take his new moves like the spin jump or wall slide any day.

I'm not personally bothered by progression being based on the missions themselves rather than Shine count since I always go for 100% anyway but I agree that it is a really strange choice. I don't know why they chose to do it that way.

Everything else I can see why others are bothered by it, but they don't really bother me.

Maybe in the city or something, but in the suburbs, getting around without a car is never fun. Public transportation can be a nightmare to deal with, especially to those who work overnight or at other uncommon times where buses (that can take up to an hour for each transfer to come) don't even run anymore.

After reading through the entire topic, I'd say this post is the most convincing as to why the answer is 33%.

But that is already cut down because we know one is a girl. GB is the exact same as BG, you guys are adding to much complications on to this. Who ever is the first born does not matter. Why are you guys bringing that into this?

because we're talking about the chances of having given birth to children with respect to gender. GB and BG are differently gendered outcomes... even if you consider them to be the same thing, you'd still have to give it 50% of the odds vs GG and BB, because GB/BG (considered as the same thing) is twice as likely to have occurred as GG.

GG 1/4
BB 1/4
BG/GB 2/4

remove BB, which is what the question really says, and what are we left with?

GG 1/3
BG/GB 2/3
chance of GG = 33%

whether or not you consider them the same thing, flipping Heads/Tails or Tails/Heads is twice as likely to occur as flipping Heads/Heads.

yet another way to say it is:
there is equal chance of the siblings being different as there is of them being the same. what is the chance of them being the same if we rule out one of the ways in which they can be the same? (BB).

It's true that BG and GB would lead to the same outcome - one boy and one girl. But it's more accurate to combine their chances of occurring than to outright eliminate either BG or GB - afterall, it's more likely that the children will be different genders than the same, so they shouldn't be given the same probability. So I see it as

BB - 25%
BG - 25%
GB - 25%
GG - 25%

with BB being eliminated, so it becomes

BG - 33%
GB - 33%
GG - 33%

or

2 boys - 25%
1 boy and 1 girl - 50%
2 girls - 25%

with 2 boys being eliminated, so it becomes

1 boy and 1 girl - 66%
2 girls - 33%

Potato is usually my go-to

I decided to persevere, up to 106 stars now. This game is actually really easy; it's crazy how simple some of the stars are, especially looking back on how long it took me to beat as a kid. I may rag on the camera and controls, but they almost help by preventing the game from being too boring. I've always had something of a love-hate relationship with it, since it's so full of issues, but they add to the charm.


At least it's better than that pile of shit Sunshine.

I don't know if it's because I beat the game like 20 times or not but I always found 64 the easiest out of the 3D collectathons despite its worse controls. There are a handful of stars in the others that I have more trouble with than the entirety of 64.

What do you dislike about Sunshine? I hate the Blue Coins but other than that I absolutely love everything else about it. Minus swimming, I feel Mario controls the best in Sunshine compared to the others.

Listened to it twice, LOYALTY, LOVE, and GOD are my favorites. DNA and XXX are great banger songs. Whole album is wonderful all the way through!

Rap always gets bashed here but I love it, old or new. I'll have to give this one a shot.

Easily N64, and honestly I'm not too big on the Joycons because of how small they are (and I have small hands). I like the Wii U and Switch Pro Controllers, though.

Yes, there's thousands of video games songs that I love.

Damn that's awful news. RIP ---8-@

It's kinda clunky, but it's bearable (speaking of Mario). The camera is a nightmare to deal with, though.

If Mario 64's camera is a nightmare, then what's the camera in FFXV?

Surprisingly, I haven't had too many problems with XV's camera except for in tight corridors, where it can get horrible.

The DS remake is better.

Seriously. It is a significant improvement.

I love the added content, but the d-pad made my hand cramp and iirc there was a run button now which was bleh

Never walked out, but I fell asleep twice. The first time was during The Mummy and I honestly don't even remember the other one haha

To be fair, I remember being really tired those days.

Alone yeah haha but two of my friends love horror movies so I'll watch them when I'm with them.

Nope.

Looks like we need a hurt/heal Marvel/DC movies topic to settle this dispute.

Impulse buyers beware

Definitely. I wanted to wait like a year or so before buying a Switch because they're usually plagued with problems at first, but I ended up buying one day 1 simply because I saw it in stock and the hype got to me. =_=

Orlando for Disney World mainly. My nephew and niece haven't been there yet, but I have a feeling I'll still enjoy it more than them haha

Just woke up from working overnight last week. Now I'm packing to head to Florida (from Long Island) soon!

double fuck rc

Did this really count as a hurt? >__>

The first thing I thought of was Sexual Healing, so maybe it should be a double heal! which is also a double hurt

I don't mind ads that sit on the sides of the screen, but pop-up ads and redirecting ads are an instant ad-blocker with no looking back. I would turn it off more often if so many ads weren't trashy and intrusive.

I don't hate pineapple on pizza but I've tried it twice and I'll never order it again. Just doesn't do it for me. However, everyone should be free to enjoy what they like.

So I guess the actual challenge is staying awake for over a full day. If I know I'll be a millionaire afterwards, then I'll do it easily.

Just get off GameFAQs

She already does. ;)

Most of that list (not to say they aren't good games, just not without flaws) but the ones that standout are Brawl and XIII-2 for sure.

A cousin and both of my mom's parents

If you have someone to play with, Turtles in Time or Zombies Ate My Neighbors. If not, Mega Man.

I like the Wii U but sometimes I miss the gimmick-less Nintendo days like the SNES or Gamecube. Those are just the system, wires, controllers, and games. The Wii U has the Gamepad (with a less than ideal battery life), Wiimotes (which also need to be charged/have batteries replaced), Wiimote accessories (Nunchuk, Classic Controller, etc.), Pro Controller, sensor bar, GC adapter that works for only game, etc. It's a pain when different games have different controller requirements, or if you wanna take the console anywhere.

That's the main reason I did overnight, I don't have the patience to deal with annoying customers haha

I don't remember many problems except enemies with shields being a nuisance, but spamming the attack button usually results in getting a few hits in haha

I remember finding it to be a blessing that Link swings his sword in ALttP rather than thrusting it like in the original.

I work at Walmart too, overnight though, but I still feel your pain. =[

Nobody in their right mind would 100% BotW.

A lot of people on the BotW boards claimed to have gotten all the shrines, all 900 seeds, and filled the compendium. I'm always tired from work, so I only get to play on weekends and I'm still really far from 100%, but I wanna get there eventually. It's a long road, good luck when you get there TC!

Just wanna add that Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze co-op is indeed extremely fun. One of my roommates and I 100%'d it and we had a blast. One of my favorite Wii U games.

Universal just for Islands of Adventure.

I bought like 5 or 6 of their controllers as a child and I swear none of them lasted more than 2 weeks.

Oh and i took this topic from the PC board. This comment had me rolling on the floor though.

Shit company. Took over Gameshark and ran that into the ground. Then they tried to make that premium MLG controller for 360, and it was a piece of shit that they never fixed all the issues with. I sent mine in for warranty repair, and the returned a rat7 mouse instead. Fuck that company.

Lmao

My coworker keeps pushing me to get corrective surgery, but I'm a baby when it comes to stuff going near my eyes and I don't want to screw the procedure and my eyesight up haha

Kirby Air Ride - Light

Rhythm Heaven Megamix - Jungle Trapeze

Bomberman Hero - Redial



Bomberman Hero - Zip



My favorite soundtrack as a child, and still one of my favorites today!

I always love topics that appreciate video game music.
