I suppose I boot up SMB3 every now and then. My favorite game thats readily available on a modern console. I dont play through it all usually, I just usually do a few levels and move on with life.

Maybe not yearly but I play through old Mega Man games once in a while.

Eh, they run pretty good promos that put it in contention with Little Caesars in being the cheapest pizza available, and there is one a block or two away from me, so I like it enough to get it once in a while.

usually its pretty okay when its fresh. Like Little Caesars, I feel like it takes a bigger dip in quality than average when its in left over form the next day or two.

It was always especially a bummer when something had coverage in magazines and stuff and then just didnt come out. Sometimes not come out at all, sometimes maybe just the North American release was pulled. I was a huge Godzilla fan when I was a kid and Nintendo Power had a little preview of the one on one fighter Godzilla game that was coming out hyped! Toys R Us had the little plastic flap with tickets of the game! Super hyped! take it to the register or to the little game booth or whatever and nope, they didnt actually have the game. Didnt find out until years later that the NA release was cancelled. I get it being in Nintendo Power months earlier, but no idea why TRU had the little box panel thing out and tickets to buy the game. :(

Perhaps it could be because they changed procedures on how to catch the guy.

I mean a lot of people know Chris Hansen these days... So him being there immediately could make the perpetrator run away immediately or maybe they could put Chris Hansen in a dangerous life or death situation

Never know man

Yeah, obviously people enjoy the entertainment factor of him popping out but I always wondered how he never got shot or stabbed. >_> Obviously he isnt dealing with folks of great virtue.

I remember after my dad died, we got back home and my mom broke down when she saw a bag of jellybeans that he had started eating before we took him to the hospital, and had never gotten to finish. Sometimes the little things like that can hit you the hardest.

Yeah, my in laws were visiting us when he had his fatal heart attack, my wife broke down when she saw the leftovers in the fridge from dinner the night before.

Sorry for your loss.

My parents are still around, but my wife lost her father. As said, different for everyone, but after the initial shock and grief of an unexpected death, longer gaps of time go by where it isnt as all-consuming as it feels at first. Random things can trigger deeper grief, and of course certain dates or whatever holidays in general, but birthday, date of them passing, etc. He was always excited about us eventually having kids and randomly got us a high chair and some stuff when we werent even really actively trying lol. So I know its really rough on my wife that he was gone before our daughter was even in the planning stages. We both (but obviously my wife moreso because she has way more stories) try to tell her about him. Its rare but when she (my daughter) brings him up out of nowhere and asks a question or whatever its kind of rough. Shes four, so I dont really know how much she fully comprehends the concept of death.

It even comes from within my own team. Earlier today I had an interaction that went something like this:

helpdesk: I have an urgent issue, can you please assist asap
me: hey, whats the issue?
helpdesk: the user cannot sign in
me: *ignore, waiting for more into*
helpdesk: can you jump onto this call and assist
me: who is it and what are they trying to sign into?
helpdesk: they are trying to sign into adobe, they are on floor 6


like why is interaction so hard for the average person

Our help desk covers multiple locations that we have nothing to do with, as well as tickets for things we dont even work with but belong to another team. They love trying to assign us stuff on the other side of the state and things that we dont really even have access to work on.

Oh, and they love to not bother asking for PC names and locations so we have to try to dig things up from our inventory system based on who is registered as calculated user.

Topic2nd largest theater chain: Regal Cinema is filing for bankruptcy

I dont get to the theater as often as Id like (and Regal is the only one in town) since having a kid. Just tough to find the time. But I do enjoy going when I get the chance so I hope mine doesnt close. :(

That said, out of the past few times Ive gone, a couple of times Im literally the only person in the auditorium, and other times its a really small handful. Saw the latest Thor at some point on its opening weekend, and while it was busier than Id seen in a while, it was maybe only a quarter full at most. So that doesnt bode well for Regal in general or specifically for my theater if they opt to shut down less successful locations to consolidate.

Id love to get something like this or the Nintendo stuff but its just tough for me to justify the cost and not really sure what Id do with it after I build it. Maybe itll make a little more sense when my kid is older and graduates to regular Lego blocks over Duplo.
