What Are You Thinking About Right Now?

[Mode 7]

I played Super Metroid the other day and now I'm playing A Link To The Past. What more can I say about these games that hasn't already been said about them. Two of the greatest games of all time and certainly two of my all time favorite games. With that being said I have do have a minor complaint I want to make about both games because they both do the same annoying thing. Whenever get an item the game stops and a text appears telling you how to use said item. It have no problem with that if it's the first time I finding the item but every time I find the same item I've been using the entire game I have sit through a text explaining to me on how to use it, especially very late into the game. It's actually funny when you think about it. You're on your way to the final boss and pick up an item and you get an explanation on how to use it 

Imagine playing Super Mario. Bros and every time you get a Fire Flower the game stops to explain to you on how to use the Fire Flower. It doesn't matter that Bowser is a few steps away

I'm interested in reading this book called Caste that compares the caste system in India to Nazi Germany and racism in America. It is interesting to note that Martin Luther King Jr. went to India and was deeply influenced by his experience there. It's such a shame that these kind of correlations are considered niche and only are brought up at the college level, which is increasingly becoming less valued in this country.

"Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed." MLK Jr.

It just occurred to me that like no political social media posts end with "Let that sink in," anymore.

There's a stream titled "Important Announcement - Nanashi Mumei" in about an hour

Not really sure why the site logged me out of my main account and into this one, but okay….

I don't think I've heard anyone in person that's ever called the NES the NES. People have always called the NES the Nintendo. Same thing with the SNES, I've never heard anyone call it the SNES in person it was called the Super Nintendo. Granted online I'll type NES and SNES because it's easier to type NES and SNES but in person I'll always say Nintendo and Super Nintendo.

I've heard NES and SNES spoken irl many times, so 🤷‍♂️

It's because we lived the era. My son says SNES... I've even heard him pronounce "snes"...I can't recall him ever referencing the NES, but I'm pretty sure he wont say Nintendo 

[Doom Metal Alchemist]

I think irl I usually say "the original Nintendo" or "8-bit Nintendo"

Tina's impression of Bob's "girl walk" is how I listen to the quieter parts of Black Sabbath's Hand of Doom.

That feeling when you wanna do something but don’t actually feel like doing anything.

Ghostrek's posts stress me out sometimes.

Like am I having a stroke?

Thank.

That Amala Ekpunobi (did I get that right?) sure is interesting huh? Going down the YT rabbit hole some of her stuff was recommended to me and I enjoyed it, but the more I discovered the more I just went hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....

I’m craving something sweet right now. I almost never crave sweets. What is this?

11 days until my vacation. 

1 funeral to attend in between. 

Plus moving all my shit to the basement because my gma (who's turning 94 tuesday) is moving in with us. Who keeps telling me she's going to die soon and she can feel it in her bones and it'll only be a few more months. 

 

I need tires, but hopefully they'll get me to and from Florida.

I just love feeling tossed around, chewed up, and spit out early in the morning.

I guess it all worked out for the best but the delivery was shit.

I keep getting approached by the butcher about him training me on how to be butcher. I'm not sure how I feel about this. Someone else wants that position and don't want it to seem like I went behind his back to take it when I was the one who was being approached about. But on the other hand this could mean more money for me and a new learning experience. I can add butcher experience to my resume. And plus this would probably improve my cooking skills on cutting meat properly. I have a lot to think about we'll see what happens. Also do women like a man who knows a lot about meat?

While I don't condone it I give zero fucks if one of these social media pranksters get hands put on them.

Netflix won’t let me watch today’s episode of Monday Night Raw because it’s “already aired”. This has never been an issue before. Why now?

Maybe Netflix is doing you a favor

Things/topics that are common in Seinfeld but pretty much nowhere else on TV:

Dry cleaner's

Cuban cigars

Seriously, in the Seinfeld universe, way, way, WAY more people smoke Cuban cigars than cigarettes.

I've somehow had three YouTube comments in a row get a lot of likes without devolving into the "oh god please stop responding to this" phase.

I can’t remember the last time I actually sat down and watched a movie. I should maybe do that soon. Not tonight, though.

Jim Traber needs to retire from sports radio. He get sucked into Internet bullshit, broadcasts it like its fact, then can't admit he got trolled.

He got on the radio and said "did you hear LeBron is retiring after the season". The cohost is like "wut, I've literally not heard that anywhere" So Trabe is like "its on bronny's X, I'll pull it up"....The cohost sat there, waited for him to old man search his bogus topic, then told him its a fake account.

Did Trabe bow out gracefully.....Of course not, he then goes on a dementia fueled rant about April's fools. Like dude, it wasn't even an April fool's joke...its just a fake account posting fake news and you're the moron following it. Just retire, bro....The technology is broken 🤦🏿‍♂️

You want me to travel 100 miles for an hour-long meeting that could just as easily be done virtually? Um……no?

I haven’t spoken to a single person so far today. It’s been quite glorious.

I'm going back to eating chili with oyster crackers instead of Frito Scoops

Amazon apparently does deliveries at 4am.  I heard my doorbell ring, and I went outside with a bat thinking it was a thief or something.  Instead it was some delivery driver.  I had to apologize for having a weapon, but come on, 4am?!

I really don’t feel like I need to justify my emotionless face to anyone.

Women read a lot more fiction than men. I realized I don't buy fiction all that much. Over 80 percent of books I buy are nonfiction.

[Jman]

Last night I got a call from Amazon’s incident report team about the whole “going to their driver at 4am with a weapon”, deal.  They understood I thought it was a thief, apologized and de-escalated as per their official report, but you never feel good after doing an incident report, even if they make it clear it was a misunderstanding and everyone understands.

I just can’t shake this sour mood I woke up in today. I would take a nap but I just don’t see that working out for me.

This week can hurry up and get over with now.

I came home for my break, the heat is working and the water is running again. Good sign but it I'm still very much annoyed with everything that's been happening lately.

[The_annoying_one]

How is it only Monday?

[Mode 7]

So last week I found out that MeTv Toons has been available over the air in Detroit since last October. Better late than never I guess. My first impressions is that it does feel like checker board era of CN which is my era btw. However I'm not exactly in love with the scheduling of these shows but at the day as much as I'm going to rock with MeTv Toons it's not going to be my exclusive option to watch classic cartoons. I also rock with Tubi, Pluto TV and YouTube. Someone uploaded the entire series of the Smurfs and there's classic cartoons that's uploaded to YouTube so there's another option. And there's always the outlaw sites to watch classic cartoons. I just love the options you have to watch cartoons and this is going to be a very fun ride.

That feeling when you go through the entire discography of a band or artist, only to find that the very last album they put out sucks ass.
