@MarioLover92 I suspect I would've had an easier time with Luigi Circuit lol. I've never been too into racing games outside of the occasional arcade machine, but those sessions are short enough that it doesn't feel repetitive. You'd think I would have tried the Mario Kart arcade racers by now, but they aren't easily found where I am. I even work for an AMUSEMENT operator, for crying out loud, but we don't have any of those. Probably due to the cost compared to some older stock, like California Speed and Crazy Taxi.

@ogo79 Smart skeleton!

@Tyranexx
Here in my hometown Surabaya, there are some Mario Kart Arcade machines, from the oldest to GP DX. Current popular Arcade machine in my hometown is MaiMai by SEGA.

@Anti-Matter Yeah, Paw Patrol is really popular with young kids. No surprise there since toys based on characters tend to be popular with young kids.

While I don't watch Paw Patrol, I've seen other shows by the same studio, one I can think of is True and the Rainbow Kingdom. I like putting it on when I want something cute, but not too in-depth. I think it might be a show you might like.

@Fizza Nah, just the Steam Summer Sales tend to be one of the biggest events in PC gaming, and everyone rushes to Steam and crashing the servers, lol. Given a new game launch today, you gotta feel bad for people trying to launch Steam.

I've learned over the years to launch Steam days before a huge sale (this way I can play single player stuff installed), and wait a few hours to shop. Actually bought Borderlands 2 today for like $5 from the sale.

Also, Steam Summer Sale memes are fun.

@korosanbo @Tremblucay Thanks! I really do like cooking and it is one of my favorite things to cook, even if I don't make it often. Maybe I should shop for ingredients to make it again one day.

A knock knock joke

@Sunsy
Yeah, I have watched True and the Rainbow Kingdom from YouTube and it was really cute.
I wonder if OG Games want to release more Nickelodeon / Cartoon Network / Dreamworks cartoon series to modern consoles, unlike Disney that I really doubt they want to invest their IP to modern consoles in proper way without F2P and micro transactions.
I missed a lot of modern 3D cartoon series from Nickelodeon Jr like Paw Patrol, Blaze & the Monster Machines, Paddington Bear, etc as I didn't watch TV for long time (maybe more than 2 years).

Btw, did you play Sonic Rider games on Wii ?
If you played that game, is that game easier than 3D Sonic games since the game looks like racing game ?

@Sunsy
You made me crave Mac & Cheese so much, I couldn't resist preparing it for dinner today. 😅😋

@korosanbo jokes come to me at the most random times, that joke was one I had to share lol

This is how I unpack and store my physical games. (edit: We need games packed with bees.)

I love America.

@TheJGG
I love Japan for having very unique things over there, especially DDR Arcade machines.
And I can understand and speak Japanese a little bit, learned from anime and video games.

@Anti-Matter Look at the news channels. I was being extremely sarcastic.

@TheJGG Just great isn’t it? (:

I was just laying outside on the deck, under the hummingbird feeder. Fell asleep, and the buzz of hummingbird startled the S out of me. It sounds like a BIG scary bee. XD So, cool to watch though. When you lay under an Hbird feeder, they see you laying there, and zip around you trying to figure out if you're a threat. But, it's a cool way to trick them into flying near you.

@TheJGG I don't disagree with you. Sigh.
We need the UN to intervene here, probably, someday.

To anyone here potentially affected by this ruling… I am very very sorry for you. It’s nuts that this is actually happening. God knows what’s gonna happen next.

@TheJGG
What was going on over there (USA)?

If it's what I assume it is, I don't think its very appropriate for discussing here, so it would be better if you researched on your own.

@WoomyNNYes
Hummingbird is not innocent and cute as their looking. They are very aggressive.

@Anti-Matter Do you have hummingbirds in your area or region? EDIT: Oh, I looked it up. You do. They're awesome, I think.

@Eel This, though I would also want to say I’m too sorry for anyone effected by this, I will end it here.

My dad has several "pet" hummingbirds. They're rather competitive amongst each other, but not what I'd call aggressive.

They seem to enjoy going under the hose's spray when he waters the plants, and sitting on the clothesline.

In Mesoamerican cultures, hummingbirds were believed to be messengers of the spirits, capable of moving between realms of existence. So being mean to them is said to bring bad luck.
