@NintendoByNature the premise alone is brilliant but then it’s backed up actually being a good film too.

@Fizza did you learn nothing from the film, if it’s still haunting you then you know what you need to do to get rid of it. Just make sure you sleep with someone you don’t like!

@jump I'm legit scared of you... just for you to know again... mainly because I know at any moment you @ you it could be the embodiment of my nightmares in a photo...

^{I still sleep with a plush toy btw...}
most of my nightmares involve either falling or sneaking around/getting caught. Once I had these "nightmares" where If I'd fall off my bed (there were holes in the floor in the dreams), It would be a hippo from a baby Einstein DVD would pop out of a hole and drag me in... Let's just say I feared rolling off my bed

this was the face of my nightmares from ages 5-8

@Kermit1 it’s a picture of a fat man, if you’re that scared of him change your avatar pic to a salad to scare him off.

@jump a scary fat man lol

geez I did like 6 posts about being jump scared... I'll stop here

Alright note taken never talk to @jump about scary stuff

@jump yea for sure, it ticked all the boxes. When I epxlain the movie to people who haven't seen, you kind of get a sideways look, lol. But it's like, just trust me, it's good.

can anyone help me with this, I have a chromebook and three of my "shift keys" are now messed up

shift 2 is "

shift 3 is £

shift ' is @

so can anyone help me or redirect me to somewhere else, I've had this happen three times now.

@Kermit1 If anyone willingly bought a Chromebook I’d question their sanity! I had one a while ago for school and it was the most clunky, most pathetic piece of machinery I have ever had the misfortune of owning.

I imagine you’ve changed some kind of keyboard settings though. Haven’t used one in years! 🙃

@TheJGG I have a newer one they a lot less clunky (believe me be, I've used some clunkers in my time) (also the chromebook was the only laptop my parents could afford)

I fixed the problem. I turned it off then on again. very bizarre

@tekoii Yeah I feel like I'm improving in some way. I do at least have brake drifting down...that helps a ton in certain turns, and especially in 200cc. I did go through something similar with getting the Mario 35th anniversary pins, the second set anyway. It was absolute madness, and I really thought I was never gonna get it...until I found out that they actually let me complete one more mission before getting it. It was really, really stressful...but fortunately, I was able to get the second set to accompany my first.

Likely your keyboard settings are on UK.

@Kermit1
Is that Lechonk Tonkatsu ?

Sounds like a keyboard set-up problem, @Kermit1 .... Like said above, so if it happens again, that's where to check

So I found a website that takes your online username and makes a short music jingle from it (here it is in case anyone's interested: https://aidn.jp/jingle/). Mine is a Paper Mario boss theme apparently.

@Fizza Oh, my username rolls off the toungue awkwardly. I'll give that link a try.
(one minute later)
.... funny, if you type "holy sh_t" into it, it makes a very mario-bros-like song. XD You know what letter belongs in the underscore.

edit: I guess a lot of things will yield mario-like tunes. Still cool, though. This is very fun putting all sorts of silly, childish, inappropriate things in there, and get some really jaunty tunes. ttps://aidn.jp/jingle/

Late replies, haven't been too good the past few days, lost my voice. It is coming back though, so doing a lot better. Also, playing some PC games between two classics Strike Commander and Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold, and The Anacrusis is having a free weekend. The latter is basically Left 4 Dead, but with aliens.

Cool, my cousin had the model 1 Sega CD, the one with the loading tray. I remember playing Sonic 3D Blast and Pinocchio, before they were even released. One of the Sega Channel perks was trying new Genesis games before they came out. I remember Mortal Kombat 3 (which was divided into two parts due to its size), an exclusive solitaire game, Mutant League Football (think Madden, but with monsters, robots, space, and traps on the field). Played a lot on Sega Channel. They even had contests where you had to find the scrambled up game name (clicking it returned Ariel: The Little Mermaid), also, an online listing of manuals, tips, news, etc. Didn't know Game Freak made that game.

Cool, I almost did that with a Pokemon sticker at one point, but decided not to. Yeah, I just like collecting them and looking at them because of my favorite characters. A couple of times when I went shopping, I got a Trolls surprise tin. All it has is a charm of a character, a wristlet, two stickers, and two magnets. I don't even use the stickers, it's just a fun little collectable to look at (not randomized, I got the Poppy tin, and all the contents were Poppy). Just like collecting and looking at them.

Cool, here's the case I use for my New 3DS XL. Cool thing is this case is an officially licensed case, by both Disney and Nintendo.

Wish more did this, I would totally carry my Switch in a Trolls case. My Switch case is Splatoon 2 themed. Yeah, I found this shortly after I got my New 3DS XL, and it was perfect since I love Frozen.

Just looked up "TekoiiYT" in Paladins and I'm getting the same result with that particular "Tekoii". If it is you, I'll be more than happy to send a request. I do have one, I just don't keep it public anywhere for privacy reasons.

@Sunsy
Speaking about 3DS, this is how do I decorate my New 3DS XL machines.

The blue design on my USA machine, the Red Yellow design on my PAL machine.

I pasted my own design for 3DS card case HORI 24.

@Sunsy Aw, sorry to hear. I'm glad you're doing better, at least! Ohh, that's cool they had the original model. I've never seen it in person, but I do know that its startup has different music and animations for the Sega and Sega CD logos. Oh that sounds cool, playing those games before their release date. Cool you got to have Sega Channel back then - I would have liked having it back in the day, though I was only a tot when that was a thing, lol. The first time I got to experience something like that was with the Wii Virtual Console.

Oh that's nice you collect merch like that. I do have a lot of Mario-themed merch myself - mostly figures on my shelf and stuff like that. That's a really nice Frozen-themed 3DS case, too! I took a picture of the Mario one I mentioned, here it is.

@Anti-Matter Ok, if that's what you like to do. I personally don't, wouldn't want sticky residue on my systems, and I like how game systems look. My New 3DS XL is a nice red.

@MarioLover92 Thanks. Yup, IIRC I think the Japanese Sega CD had a different startup song. Stumbled across it on YouTube one day. I think the only memory I have of it was playing some robot game my cousin had for it. Yeah, it was a section called Test Drives, and it would let you play upcoming games with a time limit (usually 30 minutes). Funny really, with Game Pass being a thing, Sega Channel is just an early form of that. It didn't replace buying games, you still bought the cart if you wanted to own the game.

Yeah, it's nice, because I can store the stuff in the tin, and the tins look really nice. I usually find these in the store's sports and trading card section, sometimes they have character stuff like this. Mario-wise, I have a few plushies of Peach, Daisy, and Yoshi.

Thanks, that's a really nice Mario case, I like how the red looks with the background of enemies. That's a very nice case. Speaking of Frozen, here's the 3DS theme from when Disney use to have themes on the 3DS eShop. It's a shame they're no longer available, I would have loved to get some more. It plays an instrumental of Let It Go in the background.
