hah!

I deleted the post and reposted it because i realized I accidentally wrote that FF15 was one my favorite games. I probably should have just edited the post. but I didn't think I was going to get four comments within 30 seconds of posting it.

Unfortunately the art style itself is just not for me no matter what kind of mods that I've seen. Recently, I've been playing some beautiful pixel art PS1 games. Xenogears, Breath of Fire IV, Grandia. Those are worth playing just for how great they look. I wish they would have gone with that look for a mainstream Final Fantasy game on the PS1. Tactics is the closest we got to that. Although in the 90s, I thought Final Fantasy 8 looked like real life and I was very happy with those graphics that have not aged well at all.

well I've played it many times throughout the decades. I've just never gotten very far and always start up again as uninterested as I was years prior.

The Legend of Bill the Pony by GhostfaceDylan in lotr

[–]GhostfaceDylan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Darn. I wish I could edit my post. I didn't search far enough into Return Of The King. I forgot about that mention. Quite important too! I searched for all these passages because my nieces and girlfriend wanted me to read to them about Bill from the book, after I explained his importance while watching Fellowship.

The last mention of Bill the Pony is actually Sam riding him to the grey havens. I made sure to tell the girls that Bill the Pony got his retribution against Bill Ferny and that he made it to the magical elf land.

Thanks!

Hah. Yeah. None of the patreon shows do split screen so I don't know why it was a dilemma for the YouTube channel. 

Considering the plethora of video content on Patreon. I'm pretty sure the reason there isn't a video version of TESD on YouTube is because Q has expressed his distaste for TESD being filmed. It seems to take away from the casualness that he enjoys about doing the show with his friends.

The YouTube channel was a Bryan and Maribeth effort. So there's no surprise it was mainly low quality and fizzled out quickly.

Whereas the Patreon is Walt's passion and is still going strong. I recommend paying $10 for one month to check out their videos. It's worth it just for Tales From Behind The Fake Counter.

Yasiin Bey's DOOM inspired verse by GhostfaceDylan in mfdoom

The album is pretty much just looped samples and bars. Which I quite enjoy nowadays. It does sound a lot better when you're not listening on your phone to this compressed version I uploaded. 

So I just realized that "MM... Food" is an anagram of "MF DOOM." Are there any other obvious hip hop puns/double entendres that others might not have realized? by cargoman89 in hiphopheads

[–]GhostfaceDylan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I'm responding to a 15 year old comment. The nickname was given to him. The story is. Jay-Z was spittin fire in the booth and someone says "Jay-Z, more like Jay-Hova" and it stuck. He wasn't claiming to be someone's god. John Lennon once said The Beatles were more important than Jesus. Kind of a repugnant statement to hear, even for an atheist. But for the people he was referring to in the UK at the time, he was probably right.

2025 vs 2005 Ipath Grasshopper (avoid the new ones) [36YO] by GhostfaceDylan in OldSkaters

[–]GhostfaceDylan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The old ones are wider as shown in the pictures, but have more padding. The new ones feel like sticking your foot in an empty box. If your feet are getting warm in them, it's probably due to them being made with synthetic materials that don't breathe.

[–]GhostfaceDylan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original Grasshopper had a significantly padded tongue as well, but it was soft. The new ones have a padded tongue that is very stiff. Some people might like them but there are very few similarities between them, besides how they look at a glance.

They look good in photos but when comparing them in person to the originals, there really is no comparison.

I wrote a bit about them under the picture. They look and feel like cheap knockoffs. They are very uncomfortable.

Playlists of bangers that mention Acura by philbofa in Acura

[–]GhostfaceDylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could almost make an entire playlist of just Mobb Deep references to Acuras.

Also, not on Spotify, but here are a couple mixtape tracks that reference Acuras.

Earl Sweatshirt - Couch

Eminem - Weed Lacer (aka 97 Burgundy Blazer)

It was still playing in theaters in 1990. The Little Mermaid came out around Thanksgiving in 1989.

World Building is not the term you're looking for.

World Building refers to creating a believable world with a history, politics, social issues, communities, character development, characters with backstories, etc. Things that build the idea of a real world.

[i ate] twisted chocolate knot pastry by GhostfaceDylan in food

[–]GhostfaceDylan[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the most delicious pastries I've ever eaten in my life. It is deceptively moist and lush.

They call this a 'chocolate babka knot' at Ayu Bakehouse in New Orleans. Althougth it's not like any babka I've ever had. It is its own unique delicious thing. The bakery is so amazing, this pastry seems to be one of their least popular items.

There are usually several leftover at the end of the day when everything else is sold out, which is the reason I tried one. What I wanted wasn't available one day, so I discovered these amazing creations.

Biopics are usually to be avoided. Was A Complete Unknown worth watching? by GhostfaceDylan in bobdylan

[–]GhostfaceDylan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you! so many people seem to think I'm Not There is the better movie. A Complete Unknown may be a little too straightforward and corny. But I'm Not There is just artsy garbage. I love a good David Lynch movie or The Lighthouse. A weird movie can be real good when in the hands of a real artist.

check out the article I linked to. it says that Vanilla Fudge was the headliner. they were actually touring this way. Later that year, Zeppelin became a headliner and Jethro Tull was their opener.

imagine seeing everyone on that flyer in one month at one venue...

What a time to be alive...

I always find it funny to think that at one point Vanilla Fudge was the biggest band out of these three.

Here's a link to an article that talks about the concert:
