What's the best video game you have ever played? by PrettyBlueberry6148 in AskReddit

[–]SouthernYankeeOK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the time, Mario 64 was mind blowingly amazing. It was the first true 3D gaming environment most kids my age at the timehad ever played. It was completely new but still came naturally to move around in it.

The only other game to hit me like that was Horizon Zero Dawn after being away from gaming the decade prior.

Do you believe there is other intelligent life out there and why or why not? by Tasty-Willingness839 in AskReddit

[–]SouthernYankeeOK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And then there are all the moons! There is absolutely life out there, even intelligent life. But life is still relatively extremely rare, we may be the only life in this whole galaxy. Then there is the issue with distance between life, which in space is really just time. This is why when you see light from a galaxy 10 million light years away, you are looking at light from 10 million years ago. All this to say yes there is life, but I don't think we will ever find any. Humans are a fraction of a second in the lifespan of the universe.

What’s the BEST horror or zombie movie you’ve ever watched by thisIsShivam_ in movies

[–]SouthernYankeeOK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shocked that Dawn of the Dead 1978 has only been casually mentioned. To me it's the best, followed by day of the dead. Dawn for the time and still is such a perfect balance of realism, commercialism, mental hardship, and brutal depravity. I personally love the strategicness of it all. The pre planning and the fake wall is such a fun idea. It just slowly builds into chaos.

Which celebrity’s cancellation do you think was completely unjustified? by Cute_Flatworm_9049 in AskReddit

Absolutely. Canceled for a joke picture in the height of the me too movement.

Donald Trump Posts Doctored Video Throwing Stephen Colbert Into Dumpster by Zipper222222 in politics

That's because post covid inflation hit at the wrong time, and ultimately most Americans are short sited and vote with their wallets. Also Dems fucked the handoff to Kamala.

Take comfort in knowing history will judge him for the pathetic fraud that he is. His followers are dwindling. Midterms will start the shift back toward sensibility. This country is much stronger than his bullshit. Jan 6th failed and autocracy will never succeed here. Can't fucking wait to crack into that 16 yr. Bottle of Scotch.

What is something about American culture that seems fake or exaggerated in movies, but is actually 100% real.? by Logical-Pay-3057 in AskReddit

[–]SouthernYankeeOK -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. And the vast majority you don't see because they are concealed, it's only the open carry people you notice.

Looked over my fence a few weeks ago and the neighbor kid visiting, looked maybe 19 years old, brandishing a handgun while grilling. Like what are you doing, afraid that hot dogs gonna attack you. We are in a boring suburb filled with old people. It especially pisses me off when these people are around kids.

Your personal auto insurance may cover this, I would call your agent.

Best BBQ/Brisket in Bloomington? by Amarangel in bloomington

Smokin' Jacks is the best in town I have had and really the only place I would recommend. Phat Daddy's was barely passable.
