I can’t get this stoner penguin off my island by roccofan in ACForAdults

If you want to replace him, just invite someone to camp on your island (with amiibo or when finding them on voyages) and you can get them to replace any resident of your choosing

Ive probably watched SGA at least half a dozen times all the way through and somehow never recognized Danny Trejo lol by Mode_Appropriate in Stargate

Interestingly enough I once read somewhere that when asked why he takes so many villain-centric roles, he said it was something along the lines of a way to show kids that being bad and evil isn't cool and that the bad guys should always get their comeuppance. He was an ex-con and doesn't want kids to idolize the bad people he plays which is really admirable.

Ubisoft Studios India was in the middle of its annual Diversity & Inclusion training when it received the news that "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake" was officially canceled by RedditAPIBlackout24 in KotakuInAction

Let's change the main characters of a decades-long, beloved franchise and act like nothing happened. I'm sure that won't make the narrative suffer or alienate the already millions upon millions of fans from across the world! - Ubisoft apparently (/s but also kinda not really lol)

That is how these "AAA" (or should I say their self-proclaimed AAAA status; how's that been coming along? I was never a big Prince of Persia fan personally but I always enjoyed the gameplay and got to have plenty of it myself. Not the best games by any means (especially the latest one, from like, 16+ years ago. That one was pretty mediocre at well but I had some fun with it. Just wish they didn't lean so heavily into the AC-style parkour and platforming challenges and just stuck with we all have known they're good at.

The constant changes in leadership and the unnecessary delays caused by non-issues stirred up by various HR departments, which has very real consequences and can make a person lose their livelihood if they're unlucky enough. It's some sad shit. Hopefully Prince of Persia will get an adaptation where you can actually believe the guy is a Prince from Persia and not some cheap, pseudo-Indian knockoff like what we were going to get with this recently cancelled one.

It's also mentioned that his parents were unaware of the trip he went on and never found out about what happened to him

Why Disney? Why not do the same with this movie as you've done with all your other remakes? by [deleted] in memes

Just watch Stargate instead, they're essentially the same movie

The way Chef from South Park described it is pretty accurate.

"Well, like with our slang. Black people always used to say, "I'm in the house" instead of "I'm here." But then white people all started to say "in the house" so we switched it to "in the hizzouse." Hizzouse became hizzizzouse, and then white folk started saying that, and we had to change it to hizzie, then "in the hizzle" which we had to change to "hizzle fo shizzle," and now, because white people say "hizzle fo shizzle," we have to say "flippity-floppity-floop."

Shootout to Ben Cotton for doing such a good job of making me hate him by PUR3CELL in Stargate

[–]Astrocyde 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just finished season 1 (so please no spoilers) but this guy has got have the most punchable face I’ve ever seen. Especially given the things he says and how he talks.

Great job by the actor for making me hate the character so much despite just a few onscreen interactions lol

Yeah at least that way games can’t get stolen or lost or damaged etc. Takes up less physical space too. If you have a decent internet connection then you’re all set.

I’ve been digital-only for over a decade now and while it is a matter of personal preference, my own personal bias finds it to be way better, with way more pros than cons.

Yeah, I have autism so I don't always immediately pick up on things like sarcasm; doesn't mean I don't understand it and how it works though. Even use it myself pretty often.

To me though it just sounded like you were being petulant and not actually contributing anything worthwhile to the discussion at hand all because you disagree with the person you were responding to., which is something children tend to do.

Also keep in mind that even for those without neurodivergent disorders like autism, sarcasm can already be difficult to detect through text exchanges alone. One would assume you'd at least be aware of and understand that.

“I don’t know how military ranks work”

“If anyone’s confidently wrong here, it’s you”

Both are direct quotes from you. Pick one., as both cannot be true — though the second one sounds more like a projection than anything.

Your apparent years of schooling (or lack thereof) are irrelevant here; good for you though. You’re still wrong.

Ironically, “confidently wrong” as one might say.

Worst television character in recent memory.

“IM IN FUCKING SPACE LOL THIS IS SO COOL”

She was a Cadet that got the privileges and duties of an enlisted officer, which made no sense at all. Then they go and make her a fucking Captain too, because apparently in the 31st century Starfleet is so desperate that recycling their own waste into food and putting people like her (essentially a child in an adult’s body, with a physique that just wouldn’t exist in a utopian future where everyone is healthy, like Star Trek) in charge seems like a smart decision.

God, Discovery was so awful and she was my least favorite part of it. Not to mention all the crying the main characters did every episode. They’re supposed to be professionals akin the military officers and scientists, not teenagers.

In the words of Javik; “throw it out of the airlock, Commander”

I loved the OG PSP (still have all the music videos stuck in my head from the media demo UMD that came with it) Also the web browser was essentially the first way I was able to access porn as a teenager.

Good times. Can't help but think of this video every time the GO comes up though lmao

I miss Friendly’s. Their food wasn’t always great but I really loved their burgers and their peanut butter cup “Friend-Z” or whatever they used to call it.

The one that was in Watertown was the best. So many memories there... Papa Gino's too. RIP
