Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Remember the final boss from WarioWare: Smooth Moves, the dancing one? Haha, that was a great one.
Touched used to be my favorite back then but now I feel like it was a bit too easy and short. One of the reasons I liked it so much was because it was one of the first time I played a touchscreen game, back when touchscreens were something new.

Smooth Moves was very creative in terms of controls and kinda challenging since the way you held the controls was constantly changing (and I wasn't good at all of them). Probably my favorite title in the series.

WarioWare Inc, Mega Party Game$! Was the first game I played (ever!), so that's definitely my favourite. Smooth Moves and Touched! are the only others that I've played but they're good too.

I want to buy the new one but I really don't enjoy going back to my 3DS since I bought a Switch, especially if it isn't 3D. I'll just wait for a Switch game and hope it's better than Game & Wario

@Kimyonaakuma Yeah, Gold unfortunately doesn't offer any 3D functionality. The support for 3D on 3DS games dropped through the years. Though the Luigi's Mansion port will have it. It was supported by the game but the GameCube itself didn't support it.

And today, I finished ANOTHER run of DDLC. I actually recorded it with my camera this time so that I could show my friends when school starts again to prove them that I did it.

The bacon thing is more or less a running joke. Bacon tastes good, but I wouldn't say everything is improved with it. I try to eat less processed meat these days anyway.

Anyway, I decided to keep my Guitar Hero controller and my favorite game out of the bunch (World Tour). The rest are going into the GameStop rabbit hole and towards another game when I drop by there this week to grab this month's Pokemon code.

Well... u only live once, so eat like a king. Bacon is AWESOME.

BTW, did anyone notice my new pfp yet?

Ugh, it's Monday. And the first Monday of the month. Accounting grids are due, invoices to the feds are due, reports to the directors are due. Monday needs to get its act together.

@ThanosReXXX TL;DR - Don't be a disgusting gluttonous sloth.

EDIT: How in the world did my reply post prior to your comment? The entire reason I made a reply was because yours was there, then it wasn't, now it is. I'm tellin ya, it's Monday.

@Andrew_R_2000 It would seem to me that the fact that we only live once, would be the exact reason for taking good care of ourselves, and not by spending most of it, ingesting overly large amounts of things that hasten our permanent departure from this world in this already all too brief life...

I'm by no means a health freak, and I eat and drink to my heart's content sometimes, but on average, I do that in moderation, and I balance the scales, by also eating more than enough healthy things, and by doing some simple exercises.

So, basically, if I enjoy a meat-filled barbecue today, I'll be eating a light and simple salad the next day.
And it's not just about longer and healthier living, it's also about avoiding as much of the nasty diseases that are connected to an unhealthy life style as possible.

To get the most out of life, you shouldn't just stuff your face with foods and drinks, only to die before you reach 40. That's not living, that's an eternal waste of something very precious... /r

@HobbitGamer Something like that. And my apologies for deleting my original comment, making you look like someone who is able to see into the future.

Or maybe I actually made you look good...

As for Monday: there once was a very smart man, by the name of William Faulkner, who said the following:
"A train station is where a train stops. A bus station is where a bus stops. On my desk I have a workstation."

It may not remove the Monday from your week, but it might make you smile and lighten the mood a bit...

@ThanosReXXX Love some Faulkner and Hemmingway. It's not a bad morning, just lots of things to do. And I dropped soup cans on my foot in the pantry when I put my lunch together, so I've been laughing at myself since daybreak. Too many things to enjoy to be in a bum mood too long.

@HobbitGamer Back when I still worked in an office, this was one of my favorite office jokes:

The three envelopes

A fellow had just been hired as the new CEO of a large corporation.
The current CEO was stepping down and met with the new hire privately in his office,
where he handed him three numbered envelopes.

"Open these if you run up against a problem you don't think you can solve," the first CEO said.

Things went along pretty smoothly for the first six months, but then sales took a downturn and the new CEO began catching a lot of heat. He went to his drawer and took out the first envelope. The message read: "Blame your predecessor."

The new CEO called a press conference and tactfully laid the blame at the feet of the previous CEO.
Sales began to pick up and the problem was soon behind him.

About a year later, the company was again experiencing a slight dip in sales, combined with serious product malfunctions. Having learned from his previous experience, the CEO opened the second envelope.

The message read: "Reorganize." This he did, and the company quickly rebounded.
After several consecutive profitable quarters, the company once again fell on hard times.

The CEO went to his office, closed the door and opened the third envelope.

The message read: "Prepare three envelopes"…

@ThanosReXXX Yessss, I like that one!!

I was just being figurative. I watch what I eat a bit too, ever since my dad had a heart attack on x-mas day almost 4 years ago... it was from family history, fyi.

@Andrew_R_2000 No offense, but you forgot to tag me, twice. I only happen to see your replies to me,
because I follow this thread.

FYI: the rant was only partially serious (hence the "end rant" symbol at the end of it), although I generally do mean what I say, even when I'm joking.

Got quite a family history myself as well. We've got all sorts, both self-inflicted and hereditary: drug addicts, alcoholics, diabetics, Parkinson's, dementia and Alzheimer's, cardio-vascular diseases, cancer, etc. I'm still untouched by any of these, but chances are, I'll get at least one of these diseases.

Luckily, more than likely not one of the dementia-related diseases, since that's mostly on the female side of our family.

As do I. XD

@ReaderRagfish: I'll find out when I drop by there in a couple days. Very busy week ahead. Today has been off-kilter and crazy already.

Well, that's two people, that I managed to entertain today...
I consider that a win.

IT CAN ONLY BE A WIN IF YOU MADE 3 PEOPLE LAUGH, AKA THE NUMBER OF LETTERS IN THE WORD WIN!

@Undead_terror Well, the fact that I managed to entertain two people, actually in turn entertained me,
so there you go...

The feelings of the entertainer don't count in the equation of fun.
