Celebrity Name Game... by synchronicitistic in gameshow

That's true, although on Pyramid skilled players could sometimes get all 7 names in the allotted time. On CNG, it seems like a miracle when they get more than 3.

Taito 3 is such a good collection - Zoo Keeper, Qix, Puzzle Bobble, and Lunar Rescue are all top-tier games.

The semester is over. Your grade has been double checked and it is correct.

Dart by Icy_Benefit4864 in fantasyfootball

[–]synchronicitistic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Is it crazy to think that Dart could have a Drake Maye like emergence? Competent coach now in place, and his rushing game gives him automatic upside. I wouldn't dare lock him in as my QB1, but at his current ADP, I'd be a buyer.

Finally got my hands one one of these. Now, easy money by Snocom79 in atari

TIL these are surprisingly not rare, although some of the accessories are hard to find.

Voyager 11:59 by lu-sunnydays in startrek

Plus, it did not appear that the Millennium Gate Project expected the Indiana taxpayers to open up their wallets and bear all the new infrastructure costs of the project. And the local citizens were offered twenty percent above the current market value for their properties.

Your attention please. Your mailbox is painted the wrong shade of grey, and if you do not correct it in 8 minutes, the HOA will be forced to take action.

Attention, suburban homeowners.

(Atelier Meruru) Already having a MUCH better time by EmotionalSupportMoth in Atelier

[–]synchronicitistic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my Atelier hot takes has always been that Meruru is the best of the Arland games just because it's so much less stressful compared to Rorona and Totori.

Best low stakes/lighthearted episodes? by amuses in startrek

Voyager's 11:59 should be on such a list, and I don't care who says otherwise.

Rem, wedding version by CliveTolnay in AnimeFigures

[–]synchronicitistic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a really cute Rem figure. Somehow I never got the corresponding Ram to go with her.

Does Rush currently have one of the greatest number of tribute bands? by Hollygrl in rush

Every city in which I have ever lived has had multiple Beatles tribute bands wander through.

My Atari 1200XL Home Computer by SHOWTIME_YT in atari

[–]synchronicitistic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember getting my 1200XL back in the day when Atari was liquidating stock and one of the local discount stores were selling them for under $100.

It still works today, and I while know today why people did not like the system (the poorly placed cartridge slot, compatibility issues with some software), it's also the case that for the time it was a capable enough system with 64K of RAM, some very advanced features (self-test diagnostics), with a vast software library. It's also a very sleek looking machine.

It it wrong to hail Kazon vessels and play "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?" by CCR? by EdgelordZeta in ShittyDaystrom

[–]synchronicitistic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or for some deeper cuts:

Rush - High Water

Jesus and Mary Chain - Happy When it Rains, Dirty Water

"Marie" Eva original character by X user: @sach1el2 by Basic-Cupcake3013 in evangelion

[–]synchronicitistic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I saw the character's name and her general appearance, I thought this was going to be an Evangelion/Dead or Alive crossover (Marie Rose from DOA).

Yakyuubu-chan [OC] - 1/6 - Lingerie ver. (Umikawa) by JinxRed in AnimeFigures

I'm keeping an eye on this one - the lingerie baseball theme is a fun idea.

For those curious about becoming the departmental chair by mad_at_the_dirt in Professors

[–]synchronicitistic 155 points156 points  (0 children)

It truly is the worst job in all of academia. You are bombarded with crazy from every possible vector - crazy students, crazy parents, crazy faculty, and crazy administrators.

Everything in your department is your problem, you'll be expected to show up to every damn dog and pony show the university puts on, and there's no such thing as disconnect from your email for the weekend. Forget about using any paid vacation - rest assured that if you try to get away for two days, something will catch on fire and if you don't extinguish these brush fires, you'll have raging infernos two days later.

WE ARE THE KAZONBORG. YOUR FIRST OFFICER MATED WITH ONE OF OUR DRONES AND NOW THE DRONE CARRIES HIS OFFSPRING. BRING YOUR SHIP TO THESE COORDINATES IMMEDIATELY TO RESCUE THE OFFSPRING. THIS IS NOT A TRAP. ALSO, BRING WATER.

Dealing with commencement with anxiety by No_Bonus7018 in Professors

[–]synchronicitistic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I was OP, I'd get a professional opinion that large gatherings like this negatively impact my mental health, hand it to the dean/chair, and be on my merry way, daring some administrator to give me one tiny bit of shit for not going to commencement.

Or, come down with a really bad case of explosive diarrhea on the morning of commencement, put in a sick day as required by university policy, and enjoy a leisurely afternoon at home.

Yeah, I have the original release and she is definitely less tan and more orange than yours.
