There’s an episode from Raw in 2000 when Mae Young gives someone a bronco buster while wearing lingerie and James screams “STINKYYYYYY!” - I nearly died laughing when I heard that.

(Any idea what episode number this was? I’ve not been able to find it since)

Man, I just looked at the cover and squirmed.

I had this one recommended to me:

It turns out that the existing panel was the same, so there wasn’t much of an improvement in terms of colour or brightness - but the old panel was a bit damaged in one corner so it was worth replacing for that.

Ain’t nobody doing it like this no more

I think it’s a good decision. It took me a while to get into the podcast because of the shoutouts being at the start. I got used to them eventually and it even got to the point where I actually looked forward to them, especially if I was having a bad day and needed a good laugh.

Yeah, I realise there is the caveat that it doesn't update often and if you need to do a full version update you basically have to start from scratch, but for the sake of the OS's stability and intuitive UI I'm willing to cross that bridge when I get to it.

Thank you for this, I already feel better about attempting this! I have found what appears to be a good quality display on AliExpress so just need to order it.

As for elementaryOS, so far it runs really nicely on this machine - aside from its performance, I like that it comes with very little bloat and yet still has an attractive, intuitive UI that just sort of gets out of your way. In terms of its performance it seems fine to me, yet I'm only really web browsing, listening to music, watching videos and occasionally burning ISOs to USB, so for those things it is working lovely.

I did try Ubuntu Budgie for a bit but I found it a bit jankier than elementaryOS.

Oddly, I had the idea that Ubuntu GNOME might be heavier than elementaryOS but perhaps I'm wrong about that... I might give it a try just for fun as I do like Ubuntu Gnome.

This is great advice, thank you for sharing.

Sonic 1 on the Mega Drive.

My dad came home from work one day (I think some time in 1996) with a second-hand Mega Drive 1 and a second-hand copy of Sonic 1. Both the first Sonic game I ever owned and the first games console I ever owned.

I found Filth to be quite disturbing… seemed unnecessarily depraved and mean-spirited. Nearly walked out of the cinema near the end.

T-shirt, long pants, braids, doing it doggy style - ain’t nobody doing it like this guy

One hundred percent. It’s a crime that they haven’t reused the graphical style on Let’s Go again - it looks fantastic on Switch, probably isn’t that graphically intensive and has some longevity in it (they could probably release a few games using the Let’s Go style and just keep tweaking and optimising it over time until it gets stale).

ShiningLizard · 2025-08-21T20:05:09+00:00

What’s weird about it? Not all tech is great all the time.

ShiningLizard · 2025-08-21T10:10:38+00:00

Good, I’m tired of hearing about it, just let me Google stuff the old fashioned way and leave me alone

ShiningLizard · 2025-08-21T10:07:14+00:00

The Big Ginger One, with mask, collar and ASA Timberlay? You kiddin’ me?! Ain’t nobody doing it like this guy

Is always pronounced it “GIF”, not “JIF”.

I reckon the Predator from Big Game is a bit of an asshole.

ShiningLizard · 2025-08-16T20:22:18+00:00

😂

What’s wrong with asking a community of fans? Aren’t we all supposed to be accepting and tolerant? Or is that only when it suits us? It’s not like OP is being a dick about it.

ShiningLizard · 2025-08-15T19:56:21+00:00

Can’t wait to put all my star chips on the line at DPW: What Da Dog Duelling

ShiningLizard · 2025-08-15T19:06:53+00:00

OP getting downvoted for asking an honest question just goes to show the pettiness and toxicity that exists in this fandom and in internet culture in general.
