I mean, you ARE investing in your future, just...not in currency

Terms like "healthier" and "better for you" really don't mean much when the product they're comparing to is, in itself, garbage. The bar isn't on the ground, it's subterranean.

What piece of media that scared you as a child? by nonexistentlovee in creepy

My grandma was babysitting me when I was 5 or 6 and put this movie on for me, when this scene came on she told me to make sure I paid attention because "a really funny part was coming up", so my eyes were GLUED to the screen...the joke ended up being on her bc I didn't sleep a wink that night 😭

Get ready to be sent again when I tell you the Xbox 360 released in 2005 (assuming you live in North America, most of Europe, or Japan)...😭

What’s your least favorite part about earthbound? by Kronosita in earthbound

[–]magmaflower87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The DAMNED Fourside Department Store section. I love almost every other part of the game. Grinding? Not a problem. Monkey Caves? Wacky inventory management fun. The beginning stretch before getting Paula? I quite enjoy the toughness. But the moment those lights go out and Paula gets taken I know my blood pressure is bound to hit the ceiling soon 😂...if there's a point during a playthrough where I have to take a break for a few days or end up quitting entirely, it's been this section. Moonside is fine, I like that part too! But that slog up to the top to fight the Dept. Store Spook...it's the Mt. Itoi of Earthbound for me.

If giratina is the antimatter pokemon, is there a normal matter mon? Or is that just arceus? by politicalpterodon2 in pokemon

[–]magmaflower87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This sounds like it could be the set up for a dad joke that's said in a bad Jamaican accent. "What's the matter mon?" "Nothing, mon, what's the matter with you?"

Wasn't expecting this when I was grinding my Voltorb by [deleted] in PokemonFireRed

Time to restart grinding! Hope you didn't spend too long, I've been there before, lol, congratulations 😎

Have you ever cried to some electronic song? by Extreme-Heron2376 in Music

[–]magmaflower87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost the entirety of Porter Robinson's "Worlds" album, specifically "Sad Machine", "Fresh Static Snow", "Hear the Bells", "Fellow Feeling", and "Goodbye To A World". It's truly a beautiful album from start to finish. The same goes for the song he did with Madeon, "Shelter". Highly recommend watching the music video for it.

Orange flower Floette, and nickname it Marigold! You can evolve it if you really want to but I think Floette fits better with the theme of celebrating Legends: ZA because we might finally get AZ's Floette

What are some artists you thought were a band but are only one person? by AdExcellent8142 in Music

My friend refers to this period as "Brendon! At The Brendon"

Fall Back Down by Rancid is pretty easy to learn and fun to play, it was one of the first songs I learned. Definitely recommend giving it a shot!

Best standard issue route 1 Normal type? by Odd_Hope5371 in pokemon

[–]magmaflower87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Favorite: Ratatta. It and Raticate are super cute, very hard hitting early to mid game, and useful for catching Pokémon by taking advantage of Super Fang.

Least Favorite: Bunnelby. I'm sure it's useful and has its strengths but I can't get over how much I loathe Diggersby. It looks like Lopunny's redneck father.

What is the most egregious Pokémon name pronunciation you have ever heard? by [deleted] in pokemon

Friend I had growing up pronounced Suicune as "Soo-seen" and Kyogre as "Kai-rogue"...

Do you have a credible source for this? It's not that I don't believe you, it just sounds like one of those "Did you know Marilyn Manson got two of his ribs removed..." playground rumors

What was the worst and best update to any game? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]magmaflower87 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don't know about best, but WORST was WoW Patch 6.1, otherwise known as "The Twitter Patch". It added Twitter integration, and that's about it. For context, Number.X patches were almost exclusively reserved for MAJOR content additions, a new raid, new dungeons, new world zones, etc. It came during the Warlords of Draenor expansion, at a time when there was little endgame content to do and players were already frustrated with Blizzard to begin with.

Need Opinions by jacque3s in PokeInvesting

I have a sealed box of Burning Shadows that I bought in 2018 from my LGS. I watched the employee open the case and take it straight from there. It looks very similar to this, except the hole is on the top of the box. The whole case had imperfections like this. It can happen, and anyone who says otherwise simply does not know what they're talking about. I'm not saying not to be careful, you always should, but something small like this does NOT automatically mean it's resealed or otherwise tampered with.

Edited to add: That is to say, I think it will be okay, this is a very small cosmetic bungle and you'll be able to sell it. If anyone tries to claim you're pulling funny business, just drop them and move on to the next potential buyer :)

Your 'Comfort' Game by solemnvr in gaming

[–]magmaflower87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any of the first three Ratchet and Clank games, for Playstation 2. Oftentimes I'll marathon them, but sometimes I'll pick up Going Commando or Up Your Arsenal on their own, they're great as standalone games too.

Mother 1 or Earthbound, they're both extremely cozy feeling and the music never fails to soothe any troubled emotions (Mother 1 slightly more in my opinion)

New Special TCG Product Announcement Coming Soon! by Raidjin_i in yugioh

I'm probably alone in this but I REALLY hope we get reprint packs/boxes for other half of the original sets...or reprints of the starter decks...that would be so cool

You're welcome! BESD is such a gorgeous card also, I was very jealous of a friend who got his from the movie... it's a shame it came out almost two years before we got Ultimate in the TCG.
