I love making sprawling, chaotic spreadsheets for the games I make. Maybe one day I'll actually make one of these games once the spreadsheet stops being fun.

@scribus You mean storyboarding ? Can we get a highly pixelated screenshot/picture of the sprawling maze, mess & chaos ?

@drinkingpony Not quite storyboards, but I was determining enemy HP based on how many hits of what tier weapon you should have and mentally counting down ammo to get a feel for boss fights, then tweaking item drop rates to ensure you just barely get by. It's really just fields of monster names with gradually ascending numbers besides them.

I dunno how unpopular an opinion this is, but I think the straight man in any comedy scene is 100x funnier if he just doesn’t say anything.

@mrmattimation Oh yes, I agree. The moment I hear that the person tapping jokes takes it up the chocolate highway is the moment I can truely laugh at their jokes.

@mrmattimation Kevin Smith has done well with it, but Bob Newhart made a career of being a solo straight man, so I think there's a spectrum of wiggle room.

My steam controllers came in. One of the 2 boxes was all banged up and had repair-tape of the sender all over it. DoA, that story is going to be long, rough, and unpleasant.
Spend a bit of time on my working steam controller, and it is actually a nice thing. I poked a bit around on my Steam to area's where I do not go pretty often, being greeted with all sorts of soundbytes from GTA VC when I put on the music player on.
Say Goodnight Mr Diaz !
But I can see this being a real nice doohickey. Probably going to spend at least some time familiarizing myself with the device, and then if my 2nd one ever gets whole again probably load it up with all sorts of weird stuff. I already know where to begin actually.

Now the question if it will EVER work well on the Nintendo Switch. Hah, never. the actual buttons and stick are way too LDOS/RDOS to make it halfway comfortable for gaming sessions of over 5 minutes.about 5 days ago from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@drinkingpony I was supposed to receive mine today but the delivery person is an asshole and didn't do their job.

GLS is the worst packet delivery service. I was at home and they didn't bother to ring the bell and they went straight to leave a note in my mail box to pick up the packet in the middle of nowhere at a kiosk.

We’re entering the home stretch on our way to Election Day and I dunno about the rest of America, but I’M closing my eyes and plugging my ears until it’s all over.

@mrmattimation With all due respect, I think you are somehow doing what you are doing in the reverse order ?
I mean I like putting my eggs in my favorite basket as much as the next lazy hen. But you kinda want to return to see the work you do actually do pay off. What if I chose the Beto basket up early ?
Not to mention that EVERYONE ( and their mum ) are extremely on edge because of the seasonal festivities and the outside cold.
Besides, the time untill Januari 20th 2021 is a LONG one to cover your ears and plug your eyes.Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

Wake up, check the funnies that my friends have send me.
( >> Twenty-bleeping-ninteen. I was supposed to be on a starship by now, conversing with intelligent robots, deciding what sort of body I'd like to upload my immortal consciousness to. Instead we're all still on this bleeping rock, wondering how to placate the "bleeping working class" ... I'll never forgive the troglodyes who stole the future I EARNED to prolong their worthless existence << )
What an odd thing to say. Why is this in my daily funnies ?
Oh... OHHHH !!! I see now... It's a thing said. Ohkay so NOW it is funny :D And the more you learn about him the more you agree with the Germans that there should be an English word for Shadenfreude.
Wait, he was hired in 2018 by the same people who fired him in 2015 in order to make the content less political ?

I’m gonna go ahead and tell people at work tomorrow that I look exhausted because of all the sex I’ve been having, and NOT because I spent several hours in virtual reality instead of sleeping

@mrmattimation Virtual sex is still sex I guess. So I guess technically it would not be lying.

Playing though Vice City on a modern day computer. Our protagonist has the tendancy to sometimes speak during the loading screens from indoors to outdoors when on missions.
At one point, just before seeing the racer you need for the heist, he pretty much says in the face of the driver "Why can't I ever meet someone normal ?" as the loading time was too short to let the audio play out. Adding to the humor right at the moment that this driver guy starts to freak out enough that even I just want to throw some crazy pills his way.
I mean, I won't since he is just a bunch of polygons, and drugs are expensive. But you got the jist of it.about 6 days ago from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

Old Chinese guy who threatened to sue me a few weeks back came in today looking for vitamins that help with your memory. He must need them, because he asked me three separate times where the vitamins were. Then he tried to pay with the gift card I offered him a few weeks back, but he didn’t have the gift card, just an activation slip. I told him there isn’t enough information on the activation slip for me to charge the gift card, he tells me he never got a gift card. I tell him, sir, you’re holding the activation slip for the gift card. He says “you lie to me, i not lie to you, you mistreat customers, you bad man” and leaves. One of the more bizarre things to happen to me this week.

the sheer knowledge that Neil Cicierega was one of the first minds to shape my relationship with the Internet when I was like 7 years old, and how he will undoubtedly continue to do so going into the new decade, makes me extremely happy to be alive

I find it absolutely amazing, that after the years I have been on chatting sites, the one of the FIRST ones I've joined on EVER years ago. Is still active and functioning. This is incredible.

The more I learn about American Politics, the happier I am that I am not there.
Perhaps it is some sort of displacement glee, since I am sure that learning about my own countries politics would leave me heartbroken in a way regarding where I am.about 7 days ago from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@drinkingpony There is no un-lick in life, unfortunately. You just have to live the rest of your life knowing that taste...
