@Sunsy Yep, the Oregon Trail games I have played had different occupations. Not much difference between them outside of how much money you start with that I recall. Though it has been a LONG time lol.
Yep, I'm intentionally picky with sugary things since I like...a lot of it. I will definitely eat many forms of brownies, muffins, and cupcakes too. Except carrot cake. Whoever came up with that combination is crazy. I quite enjoy cheesecake and most kinds of pie too. Not a big fan of some cream or meringue pies though.
Yeah, I think I always started out as a banker. I'm trying to remember since it's been too long.
Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. I agree, carrot cake just never appealed to me.
I actually wanted to use colored lights at first, but they didn't quite cover the entire tree, so we went with the white lights. We have a lot more of those. I'm all done with the tree now... it's all decked out with the lights, ornaments, and train! My train is all set and ready to chug along. I placed the railroad tracks around the tree and installed the batteries, and it's working great. There's still other decorations that gotta be put up though. Best of luck on finishing up your tree.
Nice, you've seen quite a bit more than I have. That Viva cup you have looks cool. Is that a Trolls bed you have here? That looks cool, I think I've seen that in your other pictures.
Yeah I think Smash's online depends on how far away you are with the other players. I'm the same way, Mario Kart and Splatoon has always been my go-to online games for a good while now. Simply because I've gotten a good grasp on how they play, and it helps that I've played the Mario Kart series since 64. I'm all right at Smash Bros., I just can't play very well competitively. I think Splatoon 3's worth picking up, especially if you liked any of its predecessors. It's also got a very good story mode. The Side Order DLC will be coming out next year as well. I'm holding off on getting Splatoon 3's DLC until Side Order comes out, all it is right now is another hub area in the form of Splatoon 1's Inkopolis Plaza. (Really, Nintendo? The first half of the DLC is just an alternate hub area? Come on, guys...)
Nice, good to hear that Sonic Advance 3's multiplayer is good fun. It's been years since I last played it though... so I may have to relearn its levels. I only played Sonic Adventure 2 Battle on the GameCube. Wouldn't mind seeing it on the Switch, though I'm not sure Sega's too willing to bring it over there right now.
Oh, here's my Cat Mario ornament. I purposely placed him next to a certain other ornament in the background...
That's cool, that little tree you mentioned sounds nice. That's cool you got the movie Sonic ornament as well.
Nice, I do have some plain shirts as well, and they're all long sleeved. They're good for wintertime, as well. Most of my shirts have Mario on them, which I'm totally proud of, lol. Yeah, I've seen graphic tees that go for around that price range you've mentioned, good to hear you got a good deal.
Cool. All I have to do is put the garland and star on it, and set up the train. The lights and ornaments are all done. I know where the train set is, so it should be easy to set up, just need to get batteries, otherwise, the train will most likely be at a standstill.
Yeah, and on top of that, Turning Red and Luca are going to theaters next year. I'm considering going just to see them on the big screen. My friend and I did it for Trolls World Tour in summer of 2022. Thanks, it was nice having my drink out of a cup related to the movie. It made it more special. Yes, that is. I always had character bedding for my bed. It's Trolls right now, in the past it was Frozen and My Little Pony. It's my bed, so I like to have character bedding, even though I'm an adult.
Yeah, shooter games have always been popular online so Splatoon fits in with that, and so is racing, which is Mario Kart. You're not the only one, I'm not the best Smash player either, I usually play on the easier difficulty settings. Usually, whenever I play a competitive game online, I never play ranked because I'm not competitive. I play Apex Legends via casual mode instead of ranked. I just always enjoyed playing online games, just the idea of being able to play with others across the Internet. Wow, so basically DLC is just Wii U's lobby area so far.
All the Sonic GBA games really need some sort of modern way to play them, aside from having them downloaded to a Japanese Wii U. I get Wii U wasn't popular, but I would still buy Sonic Advance games on the US Wii U if they did show up, just so I don't need to rely on my GBA to play them.
Cool Cat Mario ornament. I still need to share some pictures of mine.
Yeah, I mostly wear the plain shirts for more formal occasions, which aren't often. Sensory reasons, I can't wear a dress shirt with the buttons, so I save the few plain ones for those sort of occasions, my folks are ok with it (unless you're my brother, and you request I wear one of my character shirts... true story, he asked this for his wedding, lol. Long story short, I guess he knew a wedding would be too much for me, so he wanted me to be as comfortable as possible). I usually just wear shirts with my favorite characters on them all the time, it's always what makes me, me. Never cared for fashion trends and styles, just give me a character shirt and I'm happy. Indeed, and it should be delivered tomorrow, looking forward to getting the new shirt.
@Sunsy
Wait, the three Disney Pixar movies during pandemic will be released on cinema next year?
I saw the schedule from the trailer.
Soul = 12 January 2024
Turning Red = 9 February 2024
Luca = 22 March 2024
If you have ever watched any of them from Disney+, could you give some quick review about the storyline about?
@Anti-Matter Yup! They will be next year. I've seen only Turning Red and Luca, haven't seen Soul.
Luca is a nice friendship story about a sea monster who builds up courage to leave the sea, and befriends another boy named Alberto and a girl name Guilia. Taking place in Italy, the three enter a contest to win a Vespa. Really nice story about friends. Here's a trailer...
Turning Red is about a teen girl named Mei who wakes up one morning and she realizes she turns into a red panda, whose ancestors have a connection to red pandas. Any strong emotion releases the panda, and Mei must learn to control it and figuring out a way to get to a boy band concert, with her friends, taking place in 2002. Another nice movie, actually watched it again this evening. Trailer...
As someone who loves these two, I'm so excited to see them finally get theatrical releases. Even though I could watch them right now on Disney+ or on DVD (I own these two physically).
It's a story about a music professor with aspirations of grandeur. On the day he finally gets a lucky break and is invited to join a proper Jazz band, he unfortunately has an accident and, after refusing to "follow the light", his soul goes in the wrong direction and ends up in the place where new souls are formed instead. Then he finds himself becoming the designated mentor for a problematic soul that has spent their entire non-existence avoiding going to planet earth to live a life. Mainly because they don't see what's the point.
Since our musician obviously doesn't want to die just yet, they find a way to go back to earth... But after yet another freaky accident, both of them fall in and it is the other soul who lands on his body instead of him (he ends up landing on a nearby cat). Etc, etc, movie happens, there's conflict, there's tears, there's acceptance and redemption, and all that jazz.
Anyhow... As it should be obvious, the movie differs from Luca and Turning Red in the sense that it largely focuses on the experiences of a middle-aged man going through a mid-death crisis, instead of those of a child undergoing "changes", and so the themes tend to be a bit more, uh, existential. But it's still the typical funny and heartwarming Disney fare.
@Princess_Lilly I ain't going to the ER for some headaches. I'm not siting in a waiting room with nothing to do for 7 hours, I'm just gonna wait it off, it'll go away eventually.

Alright, so some of you probably saw the posts in the goodbye thread, but Plumber has left the site and Kermit is likely leaving. We’re in a discord server though, so if anyone here wants to join I can give you the link. John and some others that have left are in there as well. But yeah, if anyone here wants the link then I can give it to you.
@Princess_Lilly Yeah it's still going, but they're not mind breaking level 9 pain scale headachesanymore, now they're just a 24/7 ibuprofen won't work annoyance.
