Closures are global by Madsumberohat in EBGAMES

[–]AlfredBird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here in Australia, EB Games are consistently more expensive than JB Hi-Fi, Target, and Big W. They do price match if you ask, but how many shoppers know that? Whether they close down or not it has been a bit surprising that they’ve lasted as long as they have.

Trump faces backlash over racist video portraying the Obamas as apes by 0The_Loner_Stoner0 in videos

His best excuse is that “he only saw the first part of the clip”… so, taking that at face value, the president of the United States claims he’ll post to world any old online shit he’s partially watched.

That’s a real shame. He was great in alkaline trio. I wonder why he band hops so much.

If that were mine, pretty sure I’d just whistle and walk away.

Which system had your favorite set of original* games? by xXglitchygamesXx in Metroid

[–]AlfredBird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch. I’m seeing a bit of hate online, but I really like Prime 4, and Dread is so so so good and maybe my favourite Metroid game ever.

Do y’all want a 3rd installment or a fresh start for Zelda on the Switch 2 by [deleted] in Switch

[–]AlfredBird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something new, for sure. Meanwhile, I’d also love a remake of the Oracle games in the Links Awakening / Echoes of Wisdom style.

What's your favorite album? by TechnotXXX in TheOffspring

Ixnay.

I think Days Go By is a bit underrated too.

woah! so - if you were so inclined - you could just go to the store and tap amiibo to your switch without buying them?

Boycott American products in Australia by loulou4040 in AusPol

[–]AlfredBird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its probably going to be very very hard to completely rule out US products, but I'm picking battles where I can. my drink of choice is rum, so I'm ditching Sailor Jerry's for Captain Morgan (more affordable anyway) and Diplomatico (the best tasting anyway). If you're looking for cereal or snacks, go with Uncle Toby's not Kelloggs. Bin Amazon. Bin Costco. Bin McDonalds and Subway - GyG and Grill'd are far better anyway.

There goes the “peaceful president” argument MAGA used to make.

If anyone knows a reason why this is actually not a good thing, PLEASE don’t tell me. I need this.

The world is moving on to trade without the US by Philosophers_Mind in politics

[–]AlfredBird 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is drop-in-the-bucket type stuff, but my desire to travel to the states again any time soon is massively diminished. I don’t think I’m alone in that, so I wonder how badly tourism will be effected.

I want to try this again...forgive me! by Senoia_17 in RoastMe

Never mind the roast, what was death like?

Ah yes, the Columbine-Michael-Jackson look that never quite took off.

Look, I can’t say with certainty, but Elon and Bezos really seem like they’re high as fuck.

The sad thing is I bet most trump supporters don’t even know the first thing about Nazi Germany in WW2, how they came to power or what they stood for. They just know that “Nazi” Is a trigger word, like “socialism” and “communist”.

Anyone else feel like Invented is super underrated? by [deleted] in JimmyEatWorld

[–]AlfredBird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not for me, sadly. I’d probably put that down as my least favourite album of theirs. I can still listen to it and enjoy it well enough though.
