@ComfyAko I haven't played it yet, I'll probably try it out soon. I keep seeing so many memes about it that I don't get.
@TeaCatherine So apparantly some of us 'Mericans microwave our tea. I'm so done with this country. No, the way I do it isn't classy either, it's just turning on the hot tap water and sticking a tea bag in, but it's certainly better than a microwave.

@ComfyAko I watched a few episodes of the anime of Elaina

@Professor_Plumber oooh so it's a club now. Like those anime clubs that you go after school to and ride a moose

@ComfyAko Ah, Ako, allow me to explain this whole thing.
Long before time had a name (So about 5 months ago) a certain girl woke up and saw her friend taken over by moose. She then gathered her Nekomimi Cult to cure the moose brain. Nekomimi won.
Ok, but really, Kermit started a Moose Cult/Club thing, and I thought I'd be funny and make a Nekomimi Cult (It already existed but not in the forums) and then we went to war with Moose for about a day and we won.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Wait, you don't use a kettle? Also, tea should only ever be microwaved if you've already made it but you let it get cold.

@MarioLover92 I think BotW and TotK's formats are fine, I just wish they'd keep the main story events closer and a bit more condensed and leave some of the other extras/side stuff for only certain points....It's odd really. On one hand I understand and applaud some games going open world - as long as it's implemented well - but at the same time I can easily get overwhelmed by them. I can sink a ton of hours into these games, feel like I'm checking things off a list even, but it also feels like it'll be awhile before I finish TotK yet. Kind of hoping to finish before my trip, but I'm not sure anymore. That said, I'm FINALLY about to tackle my second dungeon (Fire Temple/Death Mountain). Just wish I didn't have such a busy weekend lol.

The Sonic Advance sub-series seems loved by many. Not quite as much as the original games I'd say, but definitely enough. I'm mildly surprised they haven't received the remake/QoL treatment yet. Didn't know about Sunset Hill being a remixed theme of Green Hill Zone; I'll have to check that out by ear when I get the chance.

@Sunsy I saw some images and a couple short clips of New York City's skyline; the haze was very intense there. I completely understand how that can bother some people. I could see stuff that thick bothering my eyes since they're susceptible to allergic reactions in the spring and fall sometimes. I don't tend to get very ill otherwise. Glad that your asthma is doing better. I have a cousin with it; he stays pretty on top of his, which is good since he works outside a lot.

I do like live action in some situations, and CGI has improved a lot. But overall I prefer animation. Usually hand-drawn over the 3D stuff, but that's all improved too.

@Sunsy
I was surprised to see Teenage Kraken as I saw "Ariel" looking creature, I was thinking DreamWorks was really want to tease Disney's The Little Mermaid by putting the scenario Ursula vs Ariel into Kraken vs Mermaid.

Oh, btw. If you like Paw Patrol, there will be another Paw Patrol movie due to 29 September 2023.

I found Kim Kardashian will be the voice actress in new Paw Patrol movie, I wonder which role she got.

Elemental by Disney Pixar is already out in USA (it will be 21 June 2023 here in Indonesia), will you watch that movie ?

There is nothing more satisfying than beating the crap out of someone who does nothing but trash talk.

( in video games that is, obviously not In Real life.)

Can I consider the Story mode from Splatoon 3 as alternative Ratchet & Clank games on Switch without even bothering the online play or multiplayer play ?

@Anti-Matter ask the Splatoon 3 thread, they might be able to give you a good answer.

dude gonna get a legit iron man car

@Owl1
Decided he wanted himself a Batmobile.

@blindsquarel JorMan lol

@Professor_Plumber I found him, can you?

@ComfyAko Indeed, I haven't coughed much today. Definitely improved.

@Tyranexx Yeah it was really hard to see, and I again didn't know about it until I was sitting at my barber shop and they had the news on. I was looking up anything about it when I got home that day. Again, I find the news depressing, so I usually won't watch it outside weather stuff being a bit of a weather nerd.

hand-drawn is always going to be great. That's what I love about the Trolls cartoon series on Netflix, they managed to translate the CGI to traditional animation quite well.

@Anti-Matter DreamWorks has a history of doing that, watch the first Shrek for example, it pokes some fun at Disney fairy tale tropes. I love the Little Mermaid and I'm looking forward to Ruby Gillman.

I saw that trailer, still want to see the first Paw Patrol movie. The movie looked fun the first time I saw the trailer for the first one. I causally like Paw Patrol, not big on it, but I'll watch it if there's nothing on, and I do have a Skye plush. I do want to see the movie. Mayor Humdinger being a bumbling villain is such a fun trope. Still waiting for the first to show up on any of the streaming services I have.

I do want to see Elemental, but may wait for it to come to Disney+. I'm more focused on seeing Ruby Gillman and Trolls Band Together, especially the latter. Again, I have to be choosy since I can't see every movie in a theater.

For fun, I love the PSA they put out on mermaids. I laughed so hard the first time watching this.

@Sunsy
I found something interesting between Mermaid and Siren.

They should be called Siren, not Mermaid.

@Owl1
By day he makes YouTube videos, by night he fights crime as JORMAN, protector of this world.

@Anti-Matter Again, I think it's DreamWorks doing what they sometimes do with Disney tropes. Notice the mermaid character has red hair. Great point as I didn't even think of Sirens. Looking forward to see how it plays out in Ruby Gillman.

Spoiler to a 9 year old movie I saw. Sirens were in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, and relied on dark powers.

@blindsquarel well, he technically was a superhero... I miss Mianite, such a great series.

@TeaCatherine I ain't got a kettle, I'm broke
Edit: Sometimes I brew some water in the coffee pot though
