Street Fighter II for getting me into fighting games. While I don’t play that version anymore it is a favorite because of how much I did play it and later fighting games.

Valheim - hundreds of hours of enjoyment from the first moment I was dropped into the world by a giant crow. So much fun time with friends, building stuff, and just exploring. Such a well done game with fantastic lighting, sound, and things to do. Only long tine gripe is fighting on slopes!

Helldivers 2 - yeah, another more recent game but it is also just the exact thing I am looking for in a mutiplayer game with friends. Nearly everything is viable in most difficulties, the game has mechanics for accidental team kills, the setting evolves, but in a way that encourages participation in scheduled events without forcing it, and the devs have listened when the player base pushes back on changes that don’t mesh with the tone of the game.

Enjoyed a lot of other games too, but those are ones that hit specific things that I love and enjoyable to replay over and over and over and over…

Can’t spend a corpse!

I prefer cash.

Getting attention.

“I am Steve Rogers.”

This was funny like a decade ago when it was commonplace.

Stores in my area solved that at least 6 years ago, maybe even earlier than that.

The people that complain probably have had far worse experiences with self checkout. I’ve been to a few stores where it was absolute hell between the machines working terribly and unhelpful staff, but on the opposite side all of the grocery stores near me solved the self checkout issues years ago and it is the best thing ever where it works well.

The big brained solution is to use curbside for stuff like canned items, chips, liquids, etc. and then go in to get the fresh produce/meats/whatever else needs to be picked through personally.

This is actually pretty funny with the number of stores that offer the option to have stuff gathered by staff and ready for curbside pickup.

While I have only been to Walmart once in the last decade, it was a year or two ago and the experience was the exact opposite. All the grocery stores in my area figured out the ‘unexpected item in bagging area’ thing well before COVID and are easy to use with no issues, but Walmart still had the stupid weight issue for the two things I was buying.

First chair was a close call, but second chair got me.

I assumed they were going to put the shaken box through the oven since the post is titled “Cooking Pizza” so opening it immediately was a surprise.

Yes, I expected the same layout, but cooked.

I don’t hear it nearly as much as Smells Like Teen Spirit.

Recite the Konami code, how to use it in Contra, and what does it give you?

Especially with all the countries that no longer exist!

When trying to be intimidating geese hiss.

When nobody is around though, yeah it would be obnoxious.
