Oh, and gifs.. we used to have a button for that in the post editor.. didn't we? I guess it's gone now? It kinda wasn't working for me for a while anyway, I suppose.

Absolutely makes sense. On the plus side, small sample size, but I swear twitter/youtube embeds load a lot faster now. Also, not sure if it might just be a thing I have turned off, but reputation points appear to have disappeared from under user icons? Seems like something I'd turn off.. but I swear I was seeing it prior to update.

It has merit, the provided information is kinda nice to have. I just despise empty wasted space in UI. Speaking of, the header on Current Events is kinda somehow excessively huge now. But that's probably still more of the skin issue. And I can sorta get if there's always gonna be something wonky with that somewhere on the site.

Poking around finding changes. It seems for maybe larger threads (I think?), the site adds some extra sidebar with stuff like "top posters" and "posted images" etc. At a glance, nifty extra thread info. But also means the entire rest of the page has a quarter of the screen taken up by blank space. Definitely something we could probably do without, if there's any way to disable that.

Why do you need to sign out on one to switch to the other? I can be logged in on laptop and phone at the same time..

They even minimized it during regular "credits" time to show a R&M ad, while the show was still running (since I presume it's an hour long program?). I'm still not entirely convinced that "Very Scary People" isn't exactly something [as] would come up with to make up stupid fake serial killer stories for spooky month. Aaaand, we're back. R&M up as scheduled. Just a full 30 minutes of the wrong program that doesn't even fit the time slot (I assume).
-
Why tf is there a shitty serial killer documentary on [as]? Are there supposed to be April Fools' fart sounds or something? Gave this a few minutes waiting for a Too Many Cooks situation, something stupid to happen, anything absurd, before looking this up and it's just an actual regular Discovery ID show? With a name like "Very Scary People" I was at least expecting a dumb parody of the genre.

FLCL Grunge Episode 3 Finale Discussion!
rpgamer replied to DangerMouse's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
Definitely agree on the Amarao assessment. There was honestly zero reason to include him except to rehash original gags. Idk.. I can at least give it credit that, in the end, it did feel like it held to the maturation motif, as all three characters did grow out of their childhood ennui or whatever. Granted, really didn't give any characters room to breathe and really feel worthwhile. Kinda just "presented as still being kids, Haruko happens, inciting character growth." No real depth to it. -
Looks like they're maybe dropping the Friday marathons for normal scheduling.

McCarthy Speaker & GOP House Majority Drama
rpgamer replied to Master-Debater131's topic in Current Events
Our democrats? We all know they don't actually intend to get anything good out of it, and would settle for promises to "stop saying mean things about us for 1 week." -
A stalemate still seems kinda embarrassing for Russia, tho..

Every time I watch that music video, it gets stuck in my head for days. Word is Kung Fury 2 is finally set for release later this year.

Weird shit from the weird side of youtube

When you want to form a metal band, but nobody knows how to play guitar. "Mama said I could be anything when I grow up, so I became a guitar." -
FLCL Grunge Episode 2 Discussion!!
rpgamer replied to OwlChemist81's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
Didn't think this episode was too bad, tbh. Some slight exposition. The "eyebrows" was again a needless callback trying to capture the same magic of the original.. I think one of the major failings of the show is just how it never really established very well what the world is. We know Haruko's some space pirate of ill repute, if the tales are to be believed. Unsurprising that MM is spread through the galaxy as well. But this just didn't seem to establish the setting very well. Future Earth? Alien world with humans? And maybe some of that is a result of a 3 episode series, little enough time to set up a "classic zany FLCL plot." And obviously that's kinda rushing said plot along as well. But, all the rush aside, this one felt like it came closer to the mood it's striving for. Did not like the pronunciation of "Samueda" through this, tho. Why the heavy accent on the last syllable? That's a fairly simple read right there.. -
The only version that fits in my head

I wanted to make a joke about using the crashed jet as a symbolic representation of the crashing market, symbolically literally wasting stupid amounts of money, in the vein of gender reveal parties.. but I wasn't sure if it would land.
-
Did it crash in the ocean? Can we send a couple more billionaires down to look for it?
-
I think you'll have a tough time convincing anyone that anything involved was wet. Sure, I get not being tuned in enough to know the whos and whats going on. But, like. If dude seriously does own a gay-friendly bar hosting drag shows, I'm struggling to believe he'd be completely unaware of the political discourse essentially putting his business and patrons at risk.
-
I'm more wondering, like.. does she or someone have dirt on this guy? How the hell does he end up on a date and not know who she is or just how terrible a person she is? I can totally believe she'd want/try to date him, she has no morals and the whole party is known hypocrites. But it's such a terrible and dumb situation all around for the guy, like, I can only imagine his bar patrons turning away now not trusting in his own morals..

Y'know, fair. I thiink I sorta got around that by positioning everyone defensively so I could just pass the ball around periodically and return to hugging the goalie. But I can't remember if there's any bonus exp for shots/tackles etc. And obviously not learning any techs. There's a lot I love about FFX. I've done the whole "rewrite the sphere grid for best stats" before. But, there's still parts I'll completely neglect "perfecting."
-
I mean.. the whole premise here is that you don't like playing.. being able to afc it and also spend less time in it sounded like the more favorable choice. At least you're not one of the crazies that goes for getting everyone to level 99. I don't think I even want to meet anyone willing to suffer that much.
-
You say that like it's a difficult challenge. Nah, at some point I say stomping just isn't worth all the extra time wasted compared to just running out the clock. If you don't like goalie camping you can always just find someone with high speed and simply kite everyone around without doing anything.
-
Because ultimate weapons demand a sacrifice? At least you can cheese it by hanging with your goalie and nobody will bother you, if you've already got a point lead.
