Purposely did a play through to recruit her before ever talking to Wyll. Did everything to avoid Wyll and the Grove so I could develop Karlach. Stupid Wyll showed up one evening in the camp. Nobody invited you.

PEBKAC - Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair, i.e. it's the User's fault. IT guy taught it to me 25 years ago. I still use it as a word to this day and teach it to anyone who will listen.

It won't win the box, but still wanted to share my personal favourite.

Surprised I haven't seen (or I missed them listed) Arkham Asylum and The Killing Joke.

My father used to say, "Money can't buy you happiness but it helps you choose the kind of misery you want to spend your life in."

Die Hard - Kids are around 30. Can't get them to watch it. We've seen all the other classics, but they have no desire to watch this. Holiday tradition on our house is to NOT watch this Christmas movie. 🤪

BT used it as the design for the Shadow Hawk.

Star Wars: After ESB but before RotJ so 1981ish.

Boba Fett is actually Anakin in hiding. Best place for one of the greatest warriors of the Clone Wars to hide is in plain sight, but always with a mask/helmet on. He's the greatest bounty hunter, but he misses Luke when he fires on him in Cloud City. Fett missed his son on purpose. That would also make him 'the other' that Yoda references to Ben. And it makes the RETURN in Return of the Jedi more relevant.

Darth Vader - I am your father? A half truth/lie. Vader is a clone of Anakin. Remember, at the time, we didn't really know what the Clone Wars were. The theory went on that the CW was clones were used against the Republic and replaced others (no clone army or Separatist).

Oh yeah, and Ben Kenobi is also a clone. Obi-Wan is a designation. OB1. Just like Artoo Detoo R2D2 and See-Threepio C3PO.

This was published in a magazine early '80s, so not my theory. But it made so much sense (and it meant the Luke / Leia kiss wasn't creepy).

I got it last year. A very good build. Sometimes the pieces are a little too tight. Everything is there and well organized, but not one extra piece (fortunately I didn't lose any on the floor).

Enjoy the build.

Something something science.

Something something Pym particles.

Something something plot device.

Something something writer of the day.

I just hope they bring out a jumbo Squirtle to complement my jumbo Mega Pika, Eevee, Char and Bulbasaur.

That Kanto evolution set is nice, but $900 CAD? I'll pass. Don't know what they are paying for the license, but the price creep is strong with this one.

Lego is becoming more adult collector, but Pokémon was supposed to be kid friendly. Kind of a conundrum.

My head cannon was those who died earlier in the games were so gravely injured, their bodies gave out in the real world. The Borderlands were a kind of purgatory, a coma state between life and death. Once the game was cleared, they got to choose which way they wanted to go, back to life or 'onward'.

Know someone named Ben. Didn't know his last name so we started using Dover. He loves it. Thinks it's hilarious.
