The only dreams that leave long lasting detailed impressions on me are fever nightmares.

I once had three on the same night, one for each member of my immediate family. All about very personal fears, and with obvious meanings. It was like a messed up Halloween special.

I just pre order two copies of Link's Awakening Dreamer Edition. Although i'm a little bummed the U.S version doesn't come with the Game Boy steel game case, not too bummed. As the U.K version with the Game Boy steel game case cost $30(US) dollars more. But i still would of prefered the Game Boy steel case. Even if it would of cost $99.99 instead of $69.99.

Edit: After seeing what the U.K version is selling for on Ebay $200-$300 i am now totally bummed.

I went to an ultimate yard sale today and took all the SpongeBob figures from the free boxes venders had. As Genji would say, "HA! HA! HA! HA!....SIMPLE!".

I made Sheldon & Mr. Randoms back on Flipnote Hatena, now i'm a kangaroo mod that has a funko pop collection!

I'm not keen politics since that stuff is spooky, I'd rather watch SpongeBob over Fox News anyways!

Maybe it's me, but I like the US edition for Link's Awakening not having a steelbook. I want the artbook, but not the thousand other trinkets they include in special editions nowadays, since they end up accumulating dust.

I have a chronic lack of time, for everything.

@HobbitGamer, @Heavyarms55 I likewise have nothing against smokers, but I can't stand the smell of tobacco smoke...or most smoke in general really. If someone wants to smoke, then fine, but please do it off where it doesn't affect anyone. An acquaintance (who does smoke) calls it courtesy smoking.

It's amazing what tobacco tar will damage/adhere to forevermore. At my previous job several years ago, someone brought in an old Alienware tower (Before Dell took over the brand) that was having issues. The owner obviously smoked while playing games like Medal of Honor according to the guy who worked on it. The inside had a ton of tar caked in there and emitted a faint tobacco odor when running even after it was cleaned out.

That was probably the worst PC I ever saw in that area of the business. The closest follow-up was the one with the mouse nest that came in from an auto body shop.

As for GameStop refurbs...Heh heh, never again.

@Tyranexx All this talk about smoke makes me remember my first job. I worked at a catering company and one of the tasks I did was to sweep up the garage where all the trucks would be parked. We had a table there for smokers to eat lunch since they obviously couldn't smoke in the cafeteria by the kitchen. They used to throw their cigarette butts all over the ground right by the table - which I would have understood, if there weren't two large ashtrays on the table! I'd say they were doing it to mess with me, but I was never around when they were, so I doubt they knew who did the clean up.

Also when I was a kid my parents smoked, and I will never forget how, after they quit and we deep cleaned the house, I realized the walls were supposed to be white. I had grown up thinking they were just painted yellowish. Also, second hand smoke really can make people sick. I doubt it was a coincidence that I had repeated ear infections as a kid - right up until my parents quit smoking at home.

To each their own, but cigarettes are dirty things man.

@CuteKidPit I can understand it more outside. Cigarettes seem like they are biodegradable and such and there often is no where else to throw them away. Albeit it's their own fault, I can sympathize with that. But when they throw them on the ground when they are sitting or standing right next to an ashtray... why?

I try to be a courteous smoker. I don’t smoke around non smokers, never smoke indoors, only smoke if I can put my butt in something I can throw away myself. Just because it’s my vice doesn’t mean anyone else should have to deal with it 😂.
Meanwhile, I was watching Live PD and a car passenger flicked her cig ash right on a state trooper that was talking to her, completely oblivious. Ugh.

I wish all smokers were like you! Keep it up!
There’s nothing worse than walking and having someone throw his cigarrete’s smoke in your face.

My fourth time watching Aladdin 2019 movie.... again. 😅
Four time watching, still i like the movie. 😄
I still "cried" again to watch Genie turned into human for the final wish, but this time i almost dropped my tiny droplet of tears. Enough with the tears. 😅

Meanwhile...
I'm downloading some Expansion packs and Add On for my The Sims 4 PS4. After i got my brokenheart 💔 due to never ever been The Sims 4 on Nintendo Switch, i decided to add more contents since i'm pretty bored with plain Vanilla The Sims 4. 😔
At this moment... I think i have to keep my PS4 Slim and i tried to add with one PS4 game again to make my PS4 Slim worthy.

Stupid question I didn't want to make a thread for as it'll require an easy answer I'm sure. Is skyward sword on wii u considered virtual console? If so, does it have save states? I never bought a digital Wii game on my Wii u yet

NintendoByNature

Eel

They don't really label them as anything besides just Wii games.

They behave just like wii games do in wii mode. No save states.

See that's what's odd.. If you go on Nintendo's website some Wii games are listed as vc.. pikmin 2 and Kirby epic yarn but skyward sword isnt listed in the vc.. I just didn't know if anyone has tried to buy a Wii game on Wii u and tried doing save states

@NintendoByNature - I don’t know how SS was handled, but I was never happy with the way my VC games looked and played on the WiiU VC. The games I bought displayed very dark and muddy, with lag noticeable in quick twitch games. I’m thinking SS maybe escaped this by being a Wii port, but I don’t know. Might be worth looking into before you buy.

Happy Father’s Day by the way, and the same to anyone who considers themselves a father in any way.

Happy Father's Day to those who are dads or father figures in here! 😁


@Heavyarms55 I don't get the littering aspect either when it comes to those. Them not using the ashtray was complete laziness. As for if someone is outside and there isn't a place to put them, I really don't think it's that hard to buy something to carry around that's non-flammable to put the used ends in until later.

Thankfully neither of my parents smoked. We had some next door neighbors as a kid who were very nice people, but I didn't like going to their house since they smoked like chimneys.

@CuteKidPit It's amazing how many cig filters I find in my yard when I'm out mowing or tending to my knockout roses. I don't smoke, but I do live right next to a busy highway. With how the road drains when it rains, I'm sure some filters get washed back into my yard. It's an annoyance that I can't do much about besides throw them away.

I occasionally find them in other parts of my yard too. There was evidence that the house has belonged to smokers more than once, so I'm sure that's where some of that is from.
