Its a new day, good morning

Yeah, I got flu and tetanus shots when I went to my yearly doctor visit o tuesday.

@Zuljaras Sorry you had such a bad time with the vaccine - that is one of the worst reactions I've heard someone having. Glad to know you're doing better now. The second shot is often considered "the bad one" but it's not a guarantee. Mrs. Losermagnet was out for a few days with her first vaccine and not nearly as bad with the second. So hopefully your's and @Tasuki are gentle!

I must have some weird Neanderthal genetics because I've been exposed to COVID multiple times and eventually had both shots and my body has done nothing.

@Eel good advice 😁

@Eel Pardon my newb question. My brother mentioned my 8 year old niece has recently become interested in Pokemon, she found some cards at school. Do you recommend Sword or Shield? Or doesn't matter, they're both cool.

Also, do you think we should wait until January when Arceus Legends reviews come out before they pick a Pokemon game?

@Losermagnet Thank you. Now I am having pains while breathing like sore muscles. I hope that it is gone in 2-3 days because I am not going to a hospital!

@Zuljaras After feeling like you've been, have you asked your doctor if they still think you get the second shot?

@WoomyNNYes No. They told me that I could have high temperature, some muscle pain for around 2 days.

I did not expect to be so severe though Maybe I am a wimp and have to suck it up!

Are you sure they didn't accidentally give you a virus instead of the vaccine, @Zuljaras ....? It certainly sounds like a rather severe reaction to it

My father in law had a similar experience with the Moderna one. He ended up getting shingles from it and was in the hospital for a few weeks. Ultimately, he didn't get the 2nd dose.

@BruceCM Well this was a little worse than the virus I went through the first time But I am sure it will be ok. No temp now, only sore muscles Everything will be ok!

You Nintendolifers will not get rid of me so easily!

@WoomyNNYes Sword and Shield are essentially the same game with a few version exclusive Pokemon and a couple of different gyms. People usually choose based on which Pokemon they like better.

As far as Legends: Arceus goes, It's going to be a much different game than traditional Pokemon like Sword & Shield.

@WoomyNNYes if she wants sword or shield, just buy whichever she likes the best. Both games are functionally identical.

@Losermagnet No problem, glad it made your day.

@Snatcher Thanks!

@tekoii It is a fun game, I now have the Switch version physically. Which is cool since the Wii U one I have is a download. Super Mario 3D World does have online play, played it with a friend recently. As for Bowser's Fury, I think it that mode might be local multiplayer.

Who knew it took so much technology and knowledge to make Bowser's own castle. Nice video, also love the remix @TheJGG.

I have strange reaction with my body when i played certain games.
When i played games with quite long time to finish one mission like Skylanders, sometimes i felt sleepy during playing and it happened before bedtime.
I tried to force myself to not getting sleepy during playing but i felt something on my head whenever i started to get sleepy.
Was that something wrong with the games i played (tedious / repetitive / boring) ?
I have been waiting for Skylanders Imaginators but i don't want to get sleepy oftenly during playing as i knew one mission in Skylanders Imaginator actually took shorter time than Superchargers / Swap Force.

@CactusMan
I never like Guitar Hero games.
And please never ever mention any rated M games to me.
I am ANTI Rated M games.

@Anti-Matter that post is two sentences too long. Please remember you don't need to do that.

_{Also, ABBA is about the most vanilla, work-safe mom pop band ever, perhaps they meant ACDC? (in either case it's not an M rated game anyway)}

It's certainly possible, @CactusMan .... Hopefully, @Zuljaras will survive, if only so he can get his game into a playable state ....

@Losermagnet Well I will see how it goes. I get the shot on the 22nd, which I am thinking I will be out the 23 maybe the 24th. That works for me at least for my job since we are closed the 24th and 25th for Christmas so I won't have to use sick days.

@Eel
I don't understand.
Am i not allowed to say something that i really hate (for example : Oh, i hate that thing. Please do not mention to me) ?
Do i have to keep silent despite i heard something that made me mad ?

About Guitar Hero, i personally never like any games by Harmonix due to the Western game companies just too depended on Western licensed songs that i mostly do not like at all.
And for rhythm games, put 3 - 5 minutes song is too long to be played.
That's why i only play Rhythm games by Konami (BEMANI games) since Japanese peoples are better in making rhythm games and they do not depend on licensed songs too much (they have in house production songs called Konami original songs)

@Anti-Matter it's not that you're not allowed to express dislike for something. It's the way you do it, and the repetitive nature of it.

You've taken your dislikes, amplified them to unreasonable levels, and made them a main aspect of your personality on this site, and that's why people get annoyed by it.
