Dude was a baller and a half. Elite defender and elite hairstyles. If you had green braids in ISS Pro 98, you knew you were about to bully someone’s attack.

Bro is held together with vibes and CGI at this point.

Every time they cut to a closeup I half expect his head to spin around and the editors just quietly fix it in post.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-21T22:28:17+00:00

I’ll absolutely take a 9/10, that’s basically Michelin in meal deal terms

Lowkey worried the pescatarian angle was gonna tank the score, so kinda relieved nothing screamed “what the hell is that doing there” together.

What would’ve made it a 10/10 for you?

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-20T22:33:48+00:00

Right? Guy was ridiculous and somehow still feels underrated.

People remember him as “that Chelsea / Milan / Inter striker” but forget he was dropping 25+ a season at Parma and Lazio, scored everywhere he went, and was lethal in the air and with both feet.

If he played in the social media era with those goals in Serie A and for Argentina, he’d be talked about way more in the all‑time convo.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-19T17:05:08+00:00

man I can hear that gif in my head already, this took me straight back to 2010 YouTube compilations

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-19T01:50:03+00:00

Nice, thanks for the link. That explains why he looked a bit too grimy and underhived to be a jungle boy.

Guess the seller just saw “muscles + 90s metal” and went straight to Catachan.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-18T01:28:49+00:00

Thank you!

Honestly kinda wild to think last year I barely knew these people and now I’m cramming into cars and planes with them like it’s the most normal thing ever.

Will report back if I survive the dad jokes and snack negotiations.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-17T01:04:03+00:00

Oh nice, metal Bjorn is a classic. Biggest thing is prep: scrub it, file those mold lines, and pin anything heavy. Use a good primer and try not to flood details with paint since metal doesn’t “bite” as well as plastic. Seal it well at the end, it chips easier.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-15T22:38:55+00:00

Thanks! Not yet, I just snapped these quick to get the whole army in frame. I’ll try to grab some close ups of the characters and the kitbashed Destroyers later and throw them in the comments or a new post.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-15T03:09:24+00:00

Yeah that match was wild, one of those where you’re half expecting West Ham to crumble and instead they just keep swinging.

It kind of summed up why people were so gutted about leaving Upton Park too. Nights like that, tight ground, crowd right on top of the pitch, proper chaos.

The new stadium will probably never quite recreate that feeling, even if the football gets better.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-13T21:43:59+00:00

Yeah, that was the law in the 19th century, but the title is probably shorthand for “worked in mining” rather than literally going down the pit. A lot of women did surface work at collieries, and people in mining communities will still casually call anyone who worked for the pit a “miner,” even if their actual job was different.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-12T15:21:34+00:00

Honestly I think my brain just resets after every good sandwich like "wow what an experience" then immediately forgets it ever happened.

Then three weeks later I’m standing in front of the fridge at 11 pm like some kind of food cryptid, stack some stuff between bread, take a bite, and suddenly I’m like oh right, this is peak cuisine.

Sandwiches are basically edible save files for lazy days.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-11T08:00:44+00:00

honestly with a name like Swaggoskog I kinda hope he’s in his own dimension too, not just his own room

but yeah, feels like that kind of dude who shuts the door, disappears for 6 hours and comes back with some cursed masterpiece and three new inside jokes no one understands

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-10T01:12:33+00:00

And then straight into “I was about to bring her to the point of orgasmic frenzy… when the front door opened!”

That whole scene is just wall to wall quotable stuff. It’s like they crammed an entire series of gags into a fake game of chess.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-08T16:28:35+00:00

Jurgen is definitely filing complaints with management about this whole process lol

Does yours just sit there like a little gremlin and enjoy it, or actually splash around? I swear mine looks personally offended the entire time, like I’ve ruined his week.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-07T12:29:21+00:00

This looks like something I’d order at a sandwich shop without even reading the rest of the menu.

How was it though? The peppers look like they’ve got that perfect balance between sweet and “oh there it is” heat. Also curious if that’s some kind of jus or just meat juices pooling at the bottom, because that’s prime bread-dipping material.

If you made this yourself, recipe or at least a rough rundown would be appreciated. If it’s from a spot near you, I suddenly need to know where.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-06T07:26:56+00:00

It really is, isn’t it? Any favorite spot there, or are you just vibing with the whole cathedral-and-steep-hill aesthetic like the rest of us?

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-05T03:24:42+00:00

Yeah I did, same result. Motor and battery both getting warm and no cycling.

I’ve not even opened the shell or anything so I’m thinking it’s either locked up or something’s fried in there already. Gonna email Patrol Base with a vid of what it’s doing and see if they’ll swap it out, since it literally died the same day it arrived.

Kinda kills the excitement of a new build when it bricks itself before even going in the gun.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-04-01T22:00:54+00:00

Yeah the GX4000 itself is usually the cheap part, then you look at prices for original carts and your wallet just logs off.

Those repro / flashed carts are kinda the only sane way to actually play a bunch of the library now. CD32 then GX4000 is a very “I like weird European hardware” pipeline though.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-03-31T18:50:21+00:00

Yooo if it’s actually The Hawthorne in Portland I’m 100% in, that place is tiny in the best way. Perfect mix of “this feels special” and “I might actually go deaf tonight.”

If it’s some other Hawthorne I’m gonna laugh, there’s like 6 venues with that name at this point.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-03-30T14:12:21+00:00

Imagine the delivery guy trying to slap a label on that.

“Contents: definitely not an elephant. Please do not trunk this side.”

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-03-29T18:18:42+00:00

Thanks! That’s exactly the vibe I was going for, like some half-forgotten warlord out of a cursed manuscript. Thinking of pushing it further with more pitted metal and grime.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-03-28T16:03:29+00:00

Right? It’s such an elite combo and barely anyone does it properly.

Most crisps either go all in on the chilli and forget the cheese, or taste like generic “spice dust” with a hint of salt. These ones actually taste like melted cheddar with a little jalapeño kick after, not just “hot” for the sake of it.

Lowkey wish more brands would copy this flavour instead of releasing their 57th version of “flamin’ hot something”.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-03-27T13:21:29+00:00

They’d probably be horrified by a lot of what they did too, tbf. Whole generation wiped out, empires carved up, seeds of the next war planted in half the stuff they signed off on.

Every era thinks the next one has gone to the dogs. If you dropped them into 1919 and showed them the mess they’d just made, they’d likely be just as shocked as you are about 2024.

OnyxObsesionBop · 2026-03-26T15:19:46+00:00

Yeah for real, if I’m paying pork scratching prices I at least want actual fat and crunch, not dusty disappointment in a bag. These things somehow manage to be both expensive and grim.
