    Damn I just realized I'm taking honors chemistry which means in another universe I could have had Walter White as my teacher

    Today I learned that Wikipedia, for some reason, has individual pages for every episode of Neon Genesis Evangelion, despite not doing this for any other show

    Those YouTube covers of anime songs that literally just pan across the same image over and over with diffrrent transitions lmao

    Sir Pentious
    Honestly I wouldn't mind if they just kept the image static, but the fact that it keeps transitioning and changing positions like it's trying to pretend it's changing to different images bothers me

    See I think people who brag about having lots of posts don't know the difference between quality and quantity

    I know the difference between quality and quantity, which is why I know all my posts suck AND I have less then 10000

    Kid me (who joined at the age of 11 and was an unlikable, homophobic social climber) definitely didn't know that difference. For some reason, I was obsessed with trying to get into the list of people with the most posts.

    I posted my opinions on Reddit and managed to garner over 80 comments telling me how wrong I am. This is hysterical

    I'm like a shonen protagonist or something. I'm too self confident to be depressed

    Math just gets more and more esoteric

    If Bob has 5√8 apples and Tim has 3√15, how many apples do they have in total?? Like wtf

    easiepeasie it's about 25. I use square roots in figuring out how many apples I have all the time

    If the thing you're holding has roots, I think you're eating the wrong part of the apple tree.

    So I went to Nintendo NYC and this guy said 'do you want to talk to Mario'
    and inside I'm like yeah that would be sick
    I'm pretty sure this is an event that I just happened to show up at the right time for AND I'm the only one there rn so I'm super lucky right?
    Except I was supposed to leave pretty soon so we could catch a tour bus
    So I panicked and said 'no I don't really have time' and now I feel bad for missing out on that

    I still like the series quite a lot, even though I don't play it much these days.

    tbh I just listened to pop music over these videos with earbuds so I will never know what Yo-kai watch sounds like. Trump looks wonderful performing in place of Shawn Mendes tho

    me sinking hours into crafting an elaborate well-designed troll level with a desert/ice theme that incorporates multiple twice twices

    I just started Bowsers Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey. I played the original when I was younger, so it's very fun to re-experience it again with improved graphics and smoother movement, even if the sound design leaves something to be desired.

    Though it is much faster paced than I remember. Pretty sure it took me a lot more than an hour and a half to reach Plack Beach last time I played 😑

    Honestly I really enjoyed Paper Mario Color Splash. I don't get the hate for it I've seen in some places. I think people need to judge it on its own merits, not as something it isn't- a followup to Thousand Year Door

    If you don't want to be compared to games that came before, don't brand yourself as part of the series. If you don't want to be seen as a follow-up to something, don't give yourself the same name. Simple as.

    If you call yourself Paper Mario, you get all the clout and recognition (and sales) that name carries upfront. But you also have to live up to the name you took on. You can't have just one but not the other, it is the fair trade-off vs. being a stand-alone game.

    Call it "New Paper Mario", problem solved.

    As time goes on I've come to dislike the "judge it on its own merits" argument for sequels more for a pretty simple reason. If a follow-up is serviceable enough it's easy to say that it's good in a vacuum, but the problem is that it just isn't the case, because it doesn't actually exist in a vacuum. If previous entries are better, then that shows the team that made it can and has done a better job than they're doing now (unless no one involved on the earlier entries is around anymore). Saying that an inferior product is fine - as long as you ignore all the times that they made something better - is just settling for mediocrity, and that generally isn't going to produce better quality in the long run.

    Now don't get me wrong, I'm not faulting anyone for enjoying Color Splash, or anything you could apply this argument to, really. If you're able to get enjoyment out of something, great! I'm just trying to explain why I don't like this line of thinking much.

    Also, Edo was spot on about brand recognition. Let's say I'm a fan of a certain movie, and then they make a sequel that barely has anything to do with the original, and was most likely only made a sequel in the first place to cash in on the original. Maybe the sequel is perfectly fine in its own right, but I don't think it would be wrong for anyone to say the movie is bad for being so disconnected from the movie it's supposedly a follow-up to.
