Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@Anti-Matter I hadn't thought of that. Based on their personality, I think they would have gotten mad if I tried to help them, by looking it up on my phone Some people are just hard headed.

@ThanosReXXX for sure. Like I said I've been going to this other resale shop for games lately, but only for used one. I only bring that up since that's usually the only reason I'd visit game stop, is for used games. New games I'll grab them at best buy or Wal-Mart, unless gamestop has an exclusive like they did for Ghostbusters in the u.s.

I gave up on GameStop a while ago. EVERY visit I ended up with the obnoxious, defiantly wrong cashier. It ruins the whole transaction really when the entire thing is an exercise in extreme self restraint.

@ThanosReXXX - Haha, no, I remember that post you linked. I remember chuckling at the time that it was well written, but wouldn’t be well received. The Sonic situation was a bit trying. I’m thinking of just your general approach to Anti, but, again, I didn’t bring it up to you in defense of him. It seemed for a while like maybe you were letting things annoy you and reacting in an atypical way to it. That’s just my perspective though, and you’re right, everything is up to individual interpretation, or misinterpretation. I appreciate the respect in turn, and the fact that we can talk about it.

I just purchased "This Strange Realm of Mine" from eshop $10.99 US (on sale, retail is $12.99?) We'll see if I like it when I get a chance to play it later.

@bimmy-lee GameStop "defiantly wrong cashier" haha Very acurate funny. A couple times now, at GameStop, I've had to say, "I know the game market. I keep up".

This Strange Realm of Mine:
The footage in this review is what convinced me to buy it. I didn't listen to the full review. I skipped around, mostly looking. But most times the reviewer was saying positive things. Think he says it took him less than 5 hours to beat.

@Tasuki So, you risked your own health to please your roomie? Now that's what I call dedication...

@NintendoByNature Yeah, used games is a different story. I've got a couple of addresses for that as well, both online and real shops. But my regular shop also has a pretty decent used games catalog, so normally, I'd often be able to get what I want where that is concerned as well.

@bimmy-lee Of course, man. Any time. What I said also applies to myself, so I also need to be able to deal with some adversity and/or people not agreeing with me from time to time, and that includes being able to discuss it like sensible adults, so we're good, far as I'm concerned.

And in all honesty, you were actually kind of right: I did let things get to me. Recent happenings such as me failing to pass that exam, other personal stuff, and now this whole Corona thing on top of all that does sometimes not a very happy ThanosReXXX make, and even I make the mistake of sometimes letting that seep through in my comments, whether I want to/mean to or not...

@ThanosReXXX - Yeah man, you’ve been through a bit of a ringer lately, and then throw a deadly nope on top as a sort of grand finale. It’s rough. Well, you know we’re here for you any time you feel you’re bouncing around a bit in choppy waters. Unless you need some TP... then you can get out.

@bimmy-lee Oh, man, you have no idea, but some things are just too private to share here. But anyway,
I have all the TP I need for the next couple of weeks, so I'm good where that is concerned. Here's hoping stocks will be replenished by then. Stupid, egotistical hoarders...

As for letting off steam and such, I think I've already said all I wanted to say about the damn exam by putting it into that comic I made. It was me making a positive out of a negative. Any more rehashing and it'll turn negative again, so I'd rather look ahead from now on. What with the all but locked-down country, times are weird enough already.

Guys, I am a terrible person. I kinda hate myself for this. But I have this morbid curiosity in the back of my head all the time since these recent virus issues started. I find myself curious about "how bad will it get? how far will it go?" and I kinda want to see it. I'm always like this for bad events - where I don't want things to get bad, and I really don't!

But at the same time - in the back of my head, I get this evil little voice wondering about how things will play out and if I'm gonna get to see some major historic event and hopefully I can live through it and talk about it.

I'm terrible. I hate that every time something bad happens I have this voice in the back of my head not exactly rooting it on, but just eager to see how far it goes.

Because these things are horrible, I know they are.

@Heavyarms55 sounds like you need to watch some more sesame street or something

@NintendoByNature Naw, maybe I should just download the natural disaster DLC for Cities Skylines and do that.

@Heavyarms55 nah you should watch kazaam. That's a real natural disaster.

@NintendoByNature I think Nostalgia Critic reviewed that at one point.

Reggie really didn't like Disaster: Day of Crisis, huh?
I enjoyed it, it's just this crazy cover shooter/motion control minigame/platforming(?) title, where there is stuff blowing up, earthquakes and tsunamis all the time. It's cool how there's a small disaster encyclopedia about every kind of disaster that unlocks after each chapter.

Not to mention the plot, with the wacky domestic terrorists (Reggie thought the cutscenes were too silly it appears, I like them.) and explosions everywhere.

To me it's of those janky, weird but very unique titles.

@Heavyarms55 it's rough to say the least

I don't visit GameStop often as most games are often cheaper at Walmart or online these days, plus I've slowed my game purchases to a trickle due to my current backlog situation. However, most of the employees at my local store are knowledgeable regulars who are usually pretty decent.

@NintendoByNature Very true. I've enjoyed every game in the mainline series, with or without partners.

My dad makes up some interesting words too. I can't post a lot of the most creative as they aren't very kind. That's probably where I inherited my habit of blending words every so often.

@bimmy-lee Favorite Zelda entry? That's a hard one. XD I either like or love all the mainline titles, though Tri Force Heroes pushed the boundaries of "like" quite a bit. I will list off my favorites (that I've played) in no particular order:

Console: A Link to the Past (though I first played the GBA port), Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, The Wind Waker, Twilight Princess

Handheld: A Link Between Worlds, The Minish Cap, Link's Awakening DX (though the Switch remaster is currently blowing this version out of the water)

I'm glad I didn't have to sit through a civil trial like that. I'm not the best at weighing evidence in such cases. A criminal trial would be more interesting to sit through.

@SheldonRandoms Happy birthday! Sounds like NY is on bar/restaurant lockdown too. Stay safe, and keep the crazy ones away!...I mean, TOAST!

@Heavyarms55
I felt angry to myself too when i saw Corona virus pandemic.
Like i want to scream "GET OUTTA FROM MY HOMETOWN, COVID19!! "
I want to say aloud that Corona virus is NOT a part of Judgement Day signs.
The Revelation was just made up by peoples, with some conspiracy within.
The future of the Earth will be NOT determined by the revelation prophecy.
It will be determined by our actions, whether to keep the Earth safe or just let the Earth become worst place to live.

@Tyranexx lol. I think it's a dad'ism. I'm starting to make stuff up myself. It's like...whos gonna call you out? Your children? 😛

@NintendoByNature And that's when you get the young'uns on board with the NBN's New World English Dictionary.

@Anti-Matter Talk about John’s book of Revelations and I’ll talk about Manhunt 2 😛
