It's crazy to me that RE4 is old enough to be eligible to remade. I got old.

I decided to go camping with friends next week so I decided to check my backpack and review all the camping gear I got. I stumbled upon this video and that's hilarious...

Though I doubt that I will take anything like that with me for camping, using a spork like this, for example, would be much convenient :D

This didn't blow my mind so much as it made me go, "huh", but for lack of a better topic (this neither made my day, ruined my day, or got on my nerves)...

Wizards of the Coast has recently decided to change the lore surrounding evil races such as the orcs and drow, out of allegations of racism from a twitter post back in April that went viral.

I'm not really sure how to feel about all this, tbh. It all seems way overblown and more than a little silly, and this is coming from me – an individual who frequently makes various "evil" races neutral aligned in his own games out of a sense of realism.

I always chalk it up as majority of the race is evil but there are outliers who aren't. One of the things that bugged me about the Godzilla anime is we never saw Exif or Bilusaludo who were left in the dark about their leaders plans. You gonna tell me in the 20 years they were pretending to be friends with each other and the humans none of them actually started caring for others stuck on the same cosmic lifeboat as them?

King Moa from The☆Ultraman is literally just a cartoon chicken with an extra pair of wings.

A random shower thought I had

The word assassin has ass in it.

All houses have the same. Roof. Floor. Walls. People yelling at you that they're calling the police because you broke into their house. It's only when you give them love that they truly become Home

Just a shower thought.

Houses already have mail slits. They're called garages.

The car hatching out of the egg blew my mind. Neat and weird little short film from 1930.

Took a hell of a nostalgia trip after checking back here for the first time in years. Guess Gwangi still causes trouble for fantasy matches even after he gained popularity here in 2006.

:P

Now there's a smiley I haven't seen in years.

The fact there's officially licensed Evangelion house paint

Eva is the biggest merchandise whore there is, I don't think even Star Wars gets to it's level

I always knew that there were Soviet Women Soldiers but I didn’t know that there were so much of them! As much as I dislike Russia they were ahead in something...
