@Zuljaras Holy expletive! You found it!! Wow. Today, I bestow upon you the title, smartest person on the planet!! 🤪Thanks!! (it was for everyone, but tagged octane in case he wanted something interesting while modding. I'm assuming Eel would see it.

We're so dumb @Apportal. haha

@Apportal @WoomyNNYes Come on guys! Just run from one picture to the other very very fast.

Found it in 1 min.

I was expecting one of the windows to be the difference

Also this kind of puzzles are not what determine stupidity (I also know you are joking). I just love to work with details as I work as a QA. I know ... lame

@Zuljaras I used to be so good at those "spot the difference" puzzles. My grandparents got me into them in the first place. I used to have a whole strategy, now I have an attention span of a toddler lol.

Dance Dance Revolution A20 Plus has become PS Plus. 😂

This week's imported lunch is "Napolitan", a Japanese twist on Spaghetti, that I believe usually forgoes tomato sauce for a ketchup base. I've heard a lot about it over the years, but it's my first time having it myself.


It came in a bowl that easily allows you to drain the water after cooking, and featured Ramen style noodles with packets of parmesan cheese & a "spicy" ketchup sauce to mix in. It definitely had a different flavor profile to your typical instant noodles, and I really enjoyed it. I didn't find it all that spicy myself, but the spice did give it a good twist to the flavor.

@RR529 are you just trying to make me feel bad? Those noodles look delish

Joking aside please send more pics. I love seeing them.

I foolishly underestimated the bitterness of the dark chocolate bar I found in the fridge.

So I made champurrado instead... One square of chocolate was enough to flavor three cups...

Got some postcards from my Nintendo rewards.

@RR529 The instant stuff is never as good but it's decent.

@1UP_MARIO all of them look adorable, but I love the first one. Who knew Mario looked good as a sea captain

Have you ever actually been speechless? Have you ever seen or read or watched or played something, gotten to the end of it and the impact was so much that you actually, legitimately were speechless? If you'd asked me yesterday I'd have said probably. But I'd have been wrong. I didn't know what that feeling was. Today is the first time I've ever actually be so blown away that I was actually, truly speechless for about 10 minutes.

You'll probably either laugh or just not believe me. I say that because if it were someone else telling me, I'd probably just think they were exaggerating too. But I just watched episodes 36 and 37 of Re:Zero back to back, and then just sat there for about 10 minutes staring at the screen so blown back that I did not know what to say or how to react. That's never happened to me before. Thinking about it now, it a little silly to react to a work of fiction like that. Like I've mentioned before, I consume enormous amounts of fiction. Not just sci-fi or fantasy, but drama, romance, thrillers, mysteries, comedies and things I don't even know how to label. And I've never been blown back, totally speechless like that.

But wow. Speechlessness is a real thing. I learned that today.

@Heavyarms55
I only know Speechless from Aladdin 2019 by Naomi Scott. 😛

@Anti-Matter Also known as the Pink Power Ranger!

@Heavyarms55 I was speechless by the following ending of games:

1. Bioshock Infinite
2. Half-Life 2 Episode Two

And I was speechless at the ending of Inception.

I have just found a small hedgehog on the road and I did not want to leave it there. It is very small and weak. Almost unresponsive.

I am almost sure it is not going to make it through the night. I offered it some crushed cat food (as the great internet suggested - good quality too) but it does not want to eat and its breathing is quite slow.

@Zuljaras maybe you could try assisted feeding? Some water with a feeding syringe or something like that.

@Zuljaras Aww it sounds adorable. If it doesn't want to eat it either means it doesn't trust you, (which in their defense I wouldn't trust a human either), or it's just given up. Sorry, you have to witness that.

@Eel It is small but it is not a baby. It is almost non responsive.

@Apportal We have lots of hedgehogs around here but this one is barely moving. No wounds, nothing.

When I found it on the side of the street it was with its belly upwards. Very strange.

Not only babies require assisted feeding. Sometimes animals won't eat without some help, giving them some water can keep them alive long enough to get better.

You could always just leave it alone in a box with the food and see what happens.
