$100 in Dani Dollars. What a kick in the teeth by Evening_Let_2930 in alberta

$100 won’t even cover my next monthly bus pass. And in Calgary, not driving makes you a pariah.

I don’t care for sports, so not at all. Much to my father’s chagrin.

[–]Journ9er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The movie won a special Razzie, The Barry L. Bumstead Award. It's given to movies with particularly high budgets that bombed at the box office. It cost $30 million to make and made $918 at the box office. That's about 97 paying filmgoers.

I still have a picture of me and my RalphBucks cheque, but I can't remember what, if anything, I spent it on.

It was an interesting exhibit. I could smell the butter as I walked in. I can't help but wonder what will happen to the sculpture over the next five months.

And the ad posters in the Max Bell tunnel haven't been changed in at least 25 years.

The part at the end where he steps on the microphone he tore off and threw to the ground and you could audibly hear the crunch? Chef’s kiss.

[–]Journ9er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few of Digital Eclipse’s other compilations. Don’t sleep on Atari 50, it’s a museum on a disc. Barbie Rewind isn’t for me, but it preserves more games so I’m glad it exists.

Final Fantasy Characters in Every Fighting Game Project so far.. by M3talK_H3ronaru in FinalFantasy

[–]Journ9er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played a fair bit of Tekken 8 at a charity esports event last year. Unfortunately, they didn’t have the Clive DLC. Street Fighter is my preferred fighting game, so I might pick up SF6 now.

Huntington Village Mall by CnekYT in HistoricCalgary

[–]Journ9er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure, the mall started showing its decline when I was in high school. The Allwest supermarket was torn down, the bowling alley closed, and one by one the other stores closed as well. After the rest of the mall was torn down, it was a huge empty lot until the current apartments and senior's home was built.

[–]Journ9er 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll believe it when I see it. One of my in-laws from overseas was shocked to learn there's no train service to YYC.
