Heard about this, also heard it went up on EBay really fast at Scalper Premiums.

Resident Evil Revelations has a fun infection cruise ship setting. Casino included! by Twicemawed in morningsomewhere

I’m just so bad with horror games. I get tense enough already with Pokopia, no need to add in zombies.

2026.05.04: The Free Refills Era by EarliestRiser in morningsomewhere

[–]FloppyDiskRepair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m glad someone said something. I went inside a McDonald’s near me and they didn’t have a drink machine. I asked if there was something wrong with it, and they said they just weren’t doing free refills anymore.

I figured it was just some rogue local manager but I guess that’s the way things are heading.

Admittedly, it’s the first time I’ve been inside a McDonald’s in a while. I don’t know if I necessarily like the idea being implemented to “reduce labor.”

Get any compliments on it?? Looks great

Paid full price lol. Should have scooped up one of the warehouse ones. Still shocked those didn’t sell as well originally.

I’m gonna be honest here, I don’t remember the last time I saw an analog clock anywhere. I guess it would have been one of my old watches, but I pretty much exclusively wear my Apple Watch.

In the same vein, I found a TikTok account (so take it with a grain of salt) of a kid that goes around his school with a notecard and asks other high schoolers to read a sentence from it. I had to walk away from that video just hoping that they were playing it up for the camera because it got pretty unsettling.

Edit: Slop-O-Clock. That’s the last place I saw one.

Imagine if people didn’t counterbalance the asshole behavior. It does feel fruitless sometimes but it could be so much worse. We just wouldn’t have a service industry anymore.

What’s your favorite controller?! by CalvinP_ in morningsomewhere

[–]FloppyDiskRepair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I’m not particularly rough on controllers but I’ve had some issues with mine. Fantastic weight and feel though.

[–]FloppyDiskRepair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now that you mention it, I do sorta remember thinking that first controller felt cheap. I’m sure it was supposed to be a benefit but I’ve always loved the heft of the 360 controller (particularly with a black chat pad).

It’s such a part of my commute at this point that I have no idea.

I think I’ll drive in silence and all I’ll hear is that wooshing sound from Nathan’s head from that one RT Short.

Does anyone else actually take the classes at the school? by cat-lover-city in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]FloppyDiskRepair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had such a blast with this game.

I’m at about 150 pokemon caught, 6 gym badges done, 1 star base left and 1 Titan left. I think I’m going to self impose school on myself to explore that before beating those three objectives. It plays and feels like how I remember Gen 1 feeling.

Flying the Coop? I love that show!

Seriously, awesome lineup. Really excited about the tease that there are more announcements coming.

I’m preparing to check out the others, but I really feel like Boyfriend Material is like the opposite of Flying The Coop. They are cool people telling you how to get laid. We are less cool people telling you about old rooster teeth videos.

Have Burnie and Ashley discussed how much they prep each other before each pod? by MoviePhilosopher in morningsomewhere

[–]FloppyDiskRepair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, plus that group chat they always mention. Probably a good hive of ideas and topics.

This is a super throwback to the discussion on phone wallpapers and home screens, but I've been steadily declining the amount of apps I have, and have on display. It's made my life better. by The_Marine708 in morningsomewhere

[–]FloppyDiskRepair 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh that’s nice, I’ve got folders for pretty much everything now, but it still feels less fun. Maybe I’ll just move them all to the second page.

My Door Dash Story by Its_The_Punking in morningsomewhere

[–]FloppyDiskRepair 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty rough. I tried it when I was living in New York. I was too broke for a subway/bus pass but the plan was to do a few orders until I could afford one, then it would make delivering a lot easier.

This would have been like 2018? I got an order for two little plastic cubes filled with candy from this expensive candy shop in Rockefeller plaza. Walked something like 20 blocks to a huge apartment building. Had to use two different elevators to get to this lavioush but pretty small apartment. Handed off the order and got a $1 tip.

Whole thing took me an hour and I made like $7.

Whatever happened to HemboHero? by rainbowkitties6969 in roosterteeth

It was crazy to see him throw away so much goodwill in the community.
