Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@SheldonRandoms: Whatever, lol. Anyways, bedtime for me...hopefully I'll be back tomorrow night...and maybe join the Splatfest as well.

I really do like the themes on the 3DS, but never before have I been so tempted to buy one now that there are Ace Attorney themes.

...Guess they're saving my room for last, so....hi?
EDIT: Bleh, everyone is basically gone this morning, go figure. >.>

I'm here .

...Well I gotta go apparently, so never mind anyways. Ugh. T.T

I have now officially been on this website for 7 years. Take that in for a moment...

Yes, if only because It's also coming out for PC.

I kid. On a serious note, it's not like it takes a beefed-up gaming PC to play a 2D platformer.

...Back sooner than expected...apparently the place already has an internet router set up for us. lol

Oh yeah, quick update on that time management idea: It was a terrible idea. I don't even play video games dilligently, why did I think "gamifying" my life would be any less futile than what I already do?! Ugh...back to the drawing board...

A lot, especially in the past year and a half. It always had its rocky moments, but the last "highlight" was the "Chit-Chat Club", and you can see how well that went just by checking the first 100 pages of this thread...I was ready to consider it a low point, but then things got worse. Good users left, with "Tendoboy" level idiots taking their place instead of more good users; the already terribly click-bait "news articles" became laughable at best, and shamelessly misdirecting at worst, and even the editorials became "Nintendo is always right" soapboxes to an exceeding degree; And worst of all, people don't seem to have nearly as much fun around here as they used to. We always had funny users making jokes and having a laugh, albeit occasionally at the expense of good discussion or common decency...but I'd take that over how dry things have gotten lately. At least the web design and forum features have vastly improved, so kudos to Anthony's industrious efforts. Seriously, in the past two years he brought the code from the stone age to the Industrial era, and at this rate it might be modern by this time next year.

Sadly, I'm not sure I'll be sticking around to see it. I mean, yeah, I've said I'll leave every year since the first year I got here, but it's really getting to the point where I have to cut out something out of my life so I have time for productive things, and forum posting is near the top of the chopping block. I'm not entirely sure how exactly I'll go about doing it. Quitting cold turkey might be legitimately dangerous (it was last time I tried it), but trying to reduce the amount of time I spend per day or even per week is gonna be difficult for someone as obsessive as I am...I gotta think about it a little more, but I gotta change my habits very soon. Life's starting to catch up fast, and I don't want to lose pace...

@CanisWolfred: Well if you ever do decide to leave you will be missed! Hope you figure out what it is you need to do to move on with your life.

^Same.

On a quick side note: with all these "Operation" ploys that have sprung up since "Operation Rainfall", I'm surprised there's no "Operation Operation" yet...clearly that is the masterpiece the Wii U is missing right now.

You're not referring to the "Operation" thread I made on this site not that long ago that got locked... are you? I shouldn't have called it a "Operation" but instead a "desire". We're just a bunch of JRPG fans hoping for more JRPGs on Wii U. Sheesh. Would gladly play a JRPG like Persona 3 or Persona 4 on Wii U VC instead of Mario Tennis U. Persona 3 and Persona 4 on Wii U VC wouldn't save the console at all but they would easily be the best games on VC, in my opinion. I'm not that upset it got locked... but I would've liked to see what other people on the site said before it got shot down. Either way, lesson learned. I should've went the NeoGaf route or some other way before making a thread here about it.

Yours is the most recent, but we've had no less than 14 "operation"-related threads that I found just from a general search...

My mom was reading the news just now, and she showed me an...interesting article. This isn't the same one she was reading, but it has the same topic:

...I have no words.

So James Bond is 007, which means he's the seventh 00. Has the series ever referenced 006 or 001?

In the books, yes. I think even the early James Bond movies with Daniel Craig reference the early 00's. If I remember correctly... they all are dead. Maybe I'm wrong.

Wow. Well, it takes a lack of something and a desire to trigger an "operation" so I'm not that surprised.

Curse you The Osprey and your hippie rock music, polluting our children's minds and our ponds...with Sharks...

...I got nothin'...

Earlier today we bought the fireworks for tomorrow

When it comes to the night stuff, I usually just like watching, so I just bought a bunch of daytime stuff like Smoke Balls & Crackle Balls, which I can leisurely toss out at my own pace all day long (oh, and some tanks, because tank wars are awesome).

We'll be going to a farm with a lot of people, so I'm sure there'll be plenty of night stuff for me to sit back & enjoy.
