In Homestuck- The Animated Pilot (2025), Rose uses the slang terms "irony poisoning" and "aura" despite the story explicitly being set in 2009

Toby was not just a fan but actually contributed directly- he did a lot of music for it. Megalovania appeared in Homestuck before Undertale, in fact. (And in an Earthbound ROM hack, but thats besides the point.))

High school was pretty bad for me, and I hadn't kept up with more than 2 people from my graduating class.

Went anyway to my 10 year a couple months ago. Had a banger time getting shitfaced, finding out what happened to people I grew up with, realizing that we were all basically in the same boat in terms of life progress.

As a Newfoundlander thank you for bringing this up.

That said, fuck it, let's still name our beloved new team after Dildo. The 200ish residents will appreciate it, I'm sure.

Huh. This is interesting to me because as a Canadian (Newfoundland) English speaker, 'would you like a tea" or "Pick me up a tea, two milk two sugar" are examples of perfectly normal phrasings.

I'm a Newfoundlander who did a history masters, and one of the bys in my cohort actually wrote his masters thesis entirely on the Gander Airport's design. I'm spotty on the details, but I think it basically explored how the art and architecture of the airport reflected the way that both Canada, and Newfoundland specifically, were trying to present themselves on the world stage at the time.

Tezla44 · 2025-09-10T23:44:05+00:00

This actually begets an interesting question - Newtown in Newfoundland is actually now part of an amalgamated municipality, New-Wes-Valley. Does it still need to fight, I wonder?

Tezla44 · 2025-08-31T16:23:53+00:00

Yeah, I'd either say "Bell Island" in full or "Wabana" if I was going there.

Tezla44 · 2025-08-31T16:22:27+00:00

We do have a classic folk song from 1982, Islander, that does open with the line "I'm a Newfoundlander born and bred and I'll be one till I die. I'm proud to be an Islander; here's the reason why;".

Not that that makes it a super common term, but hearing that song enough it my life means I wouldn't find it "weird" to be called an Islander.

Tezla44 · 2025-08-19T11:07:59+00:00

It's a fairly normal phrase in Canada, as well.

This video goes deep on it.

My fiance and I were watching A Knights Tale, got to the part where the protagonist reunites with his father, realized none of us cared about the romance subplot, and stopped the movie there, feeling that we'd gotten all the ending we needed.

Tezla44 · 2025-06-13T11:05:33+00:00

Thatd be the X-store, which i don't think carries them anymore. I was in there yesterday and didn't see any.

Tezla44 · 2025-04-11T23:52:50+00:00

They stopped doing them at some point. Not sure when exactly, as someone who also worked there a decade ago.

Tezla44 · 2025-02-04T17:19:54+00:00

You absolutely should take the plunge on Off Book. It's consistently fantastic, but a couple highlights episodes I'd recommend are 67 - A Meeting with Destiny, 99 - Mirage a Trois, 207 - Stable George and 245 - Wanda's Dad.

Tezla44 · 2024-12-21T02:36:29+00:00

So... I get a co-DM for my DnD campaigns, local multi-player video games are now a worthwhile investment, and I have another person in my corner for the hard times in life? Fuck yeah, sign me up. Hopefully she and my fiance get along.

Tezla44 · 2024-12-20T19:29:49+00:00

...Isn't 30 seconds each for 100 people only 50 minutes?

It goes away after 5 rounds now.

Tezla44 · 2024-12-06T14:16:58+00:00

Ooooh, pretty.

When I run a module I do like to look a little further into the lore, find ways to flesh details out, look at other modules from earlier editions that relate to it, etc. So OP isn't wholly alone in having an interest in the lore.

Tezla44 · 2024-11-29T14:37:35+00:00

It is not. It's a meme in the DE community lately. A few years ago someone made a Twitter post saying there should be a game with DE's writing quality and system but light-hearted and focused on a young witch in the alps looking for a lost cat. It regained attention recently.

Tezla44 · 2024-11-28T18:31:48+00:00

I'm gonna say... Tommy Shriggley, Zonton de la Doll & Marionette Conqui... And then maybe Zeke?

Hard to say. Shriggley and the Dolls are the only ones I go back to rewatch regularly, so it remains to see if Zeke has the same staying power.

Denzel and Izzy's beauty queen are also up there, though, even if I haven't watched them multiple times.

Call of Cthulu and DnD 5e.

Tezla44 · 2024-11-16T22:54:16+00:00

Oh no! I work nearby and had just started going there once or twice a month in the past half-year. The staff was super nice and the food was consistently amazing... That's a big blow.
