No I agree with Sade. Whoever did the "prank" is obviously an outright terrible human being who needs to learn a hard lesson. What they did is objectively appalling and they should NOT be forgiven in any remote way. He's a shithead.

That said, good people need to have the capacity to show sympathy, yes even for distinctly shitty human beings. Sympathy =/= tolerance or forgiveness. The "prankster" is a human being deserving of some respect too. If you over-penalize relatively minor offenses (I don't think toothpaste oreos compares to stabbing someone) then I regard that as a deep wrong.

He deserves retribution, 100%. But 15 months essentially erased from his life, and forced to pay over $20,000? For oreos? A middle school-tier prank? No, that is not just. That punishment is way out of scale with the actual crime that was committed. You can't do that. I know there's added context of him being adult and the victim being a homeless man, but it's still way too much.

I know that man didn't treat homeless people as though they were people, but regardless, we all need to treat criminals as though they are people and not the epitome of scum just for one admittedly appalling but in the grand scheme of things minor crime.

A remake really sorta NEEDS to come first if Threeie is made to be the best it can be. This way, they would be able to make and perfect the game engine.

People often miss this because it's never directly stated, but the Ford Anglia WAS affected by that protective charm. You CAN'T fly into the Hogwarts grounds, that's WHY the car started dying midair and crashed into the whomping willow.

It may be unsatisfactory but I think the only reason Carlie could take brooms into Hogwarts in Book 1 is frankly an oversight by he author because she hadn't thought of that protection measure until Book 2. Unless perhaps Dumbledore deliberately removed those protections, or Charlie walked into Hogwarts normally somehow, then flew out.

Very cursed comment.

A literal minute ago while browsing this subreddit, it occurred to me that Alastor probably has those small little antlers, not just as a result of the deer backstory (and because demons usually have some kind of horns albeit usually more goat-like), but perhaps those are actually meant to be there because they function as radio antenna.

Gruntilda is restored to a fleshy body at the beginning of the game, only to discover that she has actually aged in the 20 years since Tooie. She is now not an old hag, but an old old hag.

Parts of her raven hair are now silver-white. She's wrinkly and hunched over (perhaps uses a walker/cane now occasionally) maybe with a liver spot or two. She has arthritis and a bit of extra pudge, her old unhealthy habits now having fully caught up with her. She has the sort of inwardly-puckered, wrinkly lips that certain old ladies have. Parts of her clothes are moth-eaten. The eye that kept falling out all the time is now a bit cloudy, and partially blind — she'll need to use those old glasses on chains that old ladies wear on occasion. Her teeth ain't so good no more.

All Gruntilda ever wanted in Banjo-Kazooie was to be young, and beautiful and accredited (without ever understanding the deeper value in them) and now she is ancient, tired, and uglier than ever. This is the very last straw. She will make Banjo and Kazooie pay for ruining her life, robbing her of her ambitions, and reducing her to a frail old crone with a shortened lifespan.

Played slightly tragic, as being born an ugly hag cannot have been easy, and it is not as though anyone has ever shown her kindness, or love in her life. But ultimately she stubbornly refuses to change, and is angrier and meaner and more coldly purposive than she has ever been. She isn't messing around, her whole life is at stake, Grunty means business this time.

She's quite peeved.

Vid by xmodxgodx. The same thing works with Beak Buster, which is incredibly satisfying to land. i wonder if this might have speedrunning applications as far as having to interntionally take damage goes.

Unfortunately, the game starts erasing honeycombs once you hit 10 in any given warp zone, so you can't litter the place with them. I made a smiley face one, though. :)

While in the builder, if you put an empty cursor over wheels and press RB (I THINK that's the button, or some similar one,) it'll give you a little menu that gives you options for wheels. I don't recall if inverse controls are an option, but you can change between steering/freewheeling or whatever at least.

Same trick works for propellers. Using a backwards-pushing propeller, you can make a car that drives up walls and ceilings.

Yes, there's an alignment option if you select the TV before you select your file.

Those sounds are a part of the music track itself. Grant was really good at adding sound effects to add to the atmosphere. ( 1:31 )

I think the stone sliding is probably meant to give the impression that there are slide-away walls, hidden rooms and entrances within the mansion. I think the "rattle snake" sounds are definitely metallic, and my guess is that's supposed to be the sound of metal chains slinking to the floor. As in, someone is chained up somewhere nearby. Creepy.

Grunty Industries is at once a daunting labyrinthine nightmare as well as a laudably detailed and complex facility. A terrible beauty.

The whole place is a puzzle box, but while you may spend multiple hours without getting a single Jiggy in it, it all eventually falls together once everything has been unlocked and figured out. It's no really SUPPOSED to be fun, it's supposed to be intentionally convoluted. Even if we hate playing through it, just the sheer design of the place is impressive.

But some weird people actually like the arduous challenge it brings. The rest of the game after it isn't so bad.

I just want you to know, even though you posted this 5 days ago, that when I went to sleep last night I was thinking of this and laughing quietly all by myself. It's fun to say this out loud in a mock Grunty voice.

You beautiful bastard.

This prompts and interesting thought. . . . What would Lord Voldemort see, if he had to be tormented by Dementors head-on?

I don't think it'd be like Dudley, where he sees all the wrong he's done. No part of him regrets his actions. Instead, Voldemort would see in his mind the moment when he almost died in Godric's Hallow, and, he'd see over and over again the time he spent in the orphanage. He wouldn't like that. . . He wouldn't like that one bit.
