anyways, i just rescued Ashley.

this game is so much fun. a fucking classic!

i had to get used to the tank controls again... this time on kb/m. but once you get the hang of it, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Many times I dislike or hate protagonists or main characters in tv shows and movies. They are supposed to be liked and I just can't like them.

I'll use a few examples and I'll obviously cover the spoilers for your convenience.

The Walking Dead - I hate Rick. He makes stupid ass decisions. I don't know why everyone allows him to be the leader. In season 1 or 2, he put the group at risk (some even died iirc) just because a girl got lost. They spent days if not weeks looking for her and she ended up being dead just because Rick felt personally responsible. Everyone had assumed she was dead anyways. Another example is letting the Governor escape or giving him a chance. I forgot the details tbh. But we all know how that turned out. Anyways, I usually want the bad guys to kick his ass or kill him or whatever. This also applies to most of Rick's group too. I end up loving the bad guys usually.

Jane the Virgin - Jane can be really annoying and unlikable. She ends up doing stupid ass stuff that gets her in trouble just to make other people happy. She also gives bad people so many chances. People that lied to her, manipulated her, tried to kill her grandma, etc.


How I Met Your Mother - While Barney isn't exactly the MAIN character (technically no one really is I suppose), he sure got treated like it and he had the most screentime sometimes and memorable moments. He got annoying after a couple of seasons and became so unbearable later on. He ended up doing stupid jokes that were just too stupid to be funny. And got like 2 seasons just for his character.

Fast & Furious movies - Dom is fucking op af! He can't be beat and he keeps overcoming impossible obstacles in every single movie. No one stop him at all. Not assassins, not the military, not experienced assassins, not drug dealers, no one! It's unbelievable. He has no fucking experience at all; he's just a racer and mechanic. We know heroes and main characters in other movies won't end up dying and will end up winning (in most cases for both), but with F&F, he is never in any real danger and overcomes situations in the most bs ways possible.

Rush Hour movies - James Carter was funny in the first one. But it went downhill fast. He's just annoying as hell and makes the movies unwatchable. I recently tried watching Rush Hour 3 again but I had to stop. Chris Tucker's character was so damn annoying and unfunny. And by annoying I mean the kind of annoying person that you just want to get away from irl if you ever met someone like that. Besides, Rush Hour 3 was a bad movie no matter what.

Avengers/MCU - I dislike some characters like Captain America. He's just annoying, thinks he's always right, and makes bad decisions. I haven't watched Spider-Man Homecoming and I don't care about watching it, but he was annoying af in the Civil War movie. I had watched him in the trailers and felt the same way but gave it a chance and I was not wrong. I can't imagine what he's like in SM Homecoming. I would not like it. I'll probably watch that movie if I'm extremely bored and if it pops up on HBO or something. Otherwise I don't give a damn at all and honestly don't want to waste my time getting annoyed by shit characters with shit jokes and dialogue.

WWE - Many of the good guys are cookie cutter good guys and are boring as hell. They usually only lose when the bad guy cheats. The bad guys are more entertaining, but they are also cookie cutter nowadays in modern WWE.

I had more recent examples in mind last night but this was all I was able to come up with today. :/

If you guys and gals can help me out that would be great. Especially if its from recent tv shows and movies.

I got pretty good skins during this event. I bought Widow's event skin last night just in case with my remaining coins although I don't play as her because I suck as her. During the event I also bought D.Va's skins (think there were two, from last year) and maybe Sombra's. Not sure if I bought it or got it from a lootbox. But yeah I got almost everything I wanted. I liked Mercy's, Reaper's and Tracer's skins but I didn't have enough coins and oh well.

And of course I got a few other skins for characters I don't use which was cool I suppose.

decided to reboot the Half-Life franchise instead of making Episode 3 or Half-Life 3? Thus making people wait even longer and possibly changing the original plot that was supposed to be Episode 3.

You know how movies are nowadays. If a movie hasn't had a new release in a couple of years they just remake an older one or just reboot it.

so I was looking up a meme I was not familiar with and saw some ads on the site for some f2p game or whatever. I realized I didn't have adblock and started worrying about my computer getting spyware or keylogger or whatever.

if I did, how would I know about this? I don't use any additional anti-virus software besides the default ones on my PC.

I feel so stupid about being this paranoid but it's something I am worrying about. The site itself doesn't look dangerous or anything but then again, I'm not used to those kinds of ads on websites. I simply got too lazy to hop on Chrome and install adblock.

edit: oh yeah, the site is something I found while doing a search on google.

doesn't have to be fancy or anything.

my futon broke a while ago and its time to replace it. it was a cheap one from ikea i think. lasted a few years. dunno if ikea is still the best option or if you guys know of somewhere else that has a slightly better quality than ikea's.

i dunno if i can buy something at around $200. >.> But i want to replace it asap and i don't have a lot of money at the moment. i dont want to wait until next month.

i would definitely recommend a samsung phone over an iphone. you can do a lot more with a samsung phone.

i used iphones a few years ago until i switched to a samsung s4 or whatever because it free during black friday if i renewed my contract (which i had to anyways). and it was a great decision.

i like android a lot more and there's much more you can do with it.

you shouldn't have looked her facebook page. that's creepy. i also know it's creepy because i used to do it before until i realized it was creepy and its more fun and interesting finding out everything about that person when you get to know them

anyways, besides the creepy facebook thing, there's nothing wrong with asking a girl out when she's working. fact is, sometimes there isn't a better opportunity like waiting for her to get off work. that's just reality. plus i think it would look a little creepy if you did that because she might think "woah, how does this guy know my schedule?"

i think you should just ask her out. there are things you don't plan out. you are already stressing out so much. maybe you can start by complimenting her and having a light conversation like asking what she did on the weekend or something like that. and then ask her out.

btw i've seen my friends ask girls out while they are working and they have given them their numbers and vice versa.

yep, this is what I like about digital.

steam is doing a good job with digital games. if a game you purchased gets removed from steam, you still have access to it. i can't say the same about xbox 360. dont know about playstation.

i can definitely see why going all digital can be scary but as long as you're not trolling or being rude in online multiplayer games or doing anything that's messed up, you shouldn't worry about getting banned or anything.

I haven't experienced disc rot but it has definitely changed my mind about physical copies the more I read about it.

Besides, I like digital more now because it is so convenient in many ways.

Both physical and digital have their pros and cons though. But I kinda started shifting towards digital last year or so. Although I sometimes still buy a physical copy for my collection but I'm been caring less and less about that. I don't have enough space for it and I can use the space I have for my physical collection on something else to be honest. Not like my collection will last forever.

no collections or compilations please. it makes things super easy and i'm going to make another topic that will include those anyways. and let's pretend you don't have access to emulators at all.

no 1st party from sony or nintendo. microsoft is okay because they do release some games on pc and its something they are doing regularly from now on.

ill get things started (no particular order):

1. metal gear solid 2
2. metal gear solid 3
3. metal gear solid 4
4. metal gear solid: peace walker
5. catherine
6. chrono trigger
7. ninja gaiden black
8. persona 5
9. castlevania: symphony of the night
10. blaster master zero

i think that's about it. im sure i forgot a ton of games.

edit: replaced wwf no mercy with blaster master: zero. metal gear acid 2 with castlevania: symphony of the night.
