The Blackangel

Now now, you’re asking a chef what’s in their creation? You may as well ask Criss Angel how his magic is performed.

There was a time that I actually bought a bunch of spiders and turned them loose in my house. I don’t remember what kind they were, but I do remember that they were harmless to humans. They killed and ate every unwanted bug that came into my house so it was a win win for all involved.

Gremlins. They open the back of the dryer, and steal one sock to sell the gnomes as a sleeping bag. They only take one at a time to make it seem like they’re in short supply so they can hike up the price. The underpants gnomes have a whole other racket.

LAUNDRY: HELP ME!!!!

Not killing karens. That would be multiple medals of different kinds, as well as a first place ribbon.

I will never trust anything with a pulse. It’s not me having a difficult time trusting. It’s me not willing to trust. I consciously choose not to. I refuse to trust. I’ve been with @Rain Dew for 20 years now, and I don’t even trust her. She knows my stance on this, and has made her peace with it.

I use Windows, because I use a computer, instead of a Mac. To clarify, that’s like comparing a truck and a motorcycle. Yeah they do the same basic thing, but are wildly different. As for getting on the DW, you have to find the things already mentioned. You definitely need TOR, and have to know how to use onion. When you find an open gateway, you can surf it all you want. Just make sure you don’t have any special pics, like those of your family and friends on your computer. Also make sure you either cover your webcam or, if you’re like me and use a TV for your monitor, unplug your webcam. People on the DW can see you through your camera and make it look to you as if it’s off. If you have any pictures of friends, family, and even a house, they can easily find you. They can use your cam to watch you even when you’re not using your computer. If you do anything you wouldn’t want others seeing (such as masturbate) they can record that and then blackmail you. The dark web is extremely dangerous if you don’t know what the hell you’re doing.

The problem is that all their so called “retro” games aren’t actually retro. They’re rePro games. Same thing basically, but it’s not the game that was originally created. It’s a cheap knockoff. They’re junk. Not worth the plastic they’re made of. It’s easy as hell to tell a fake from the real thing. I was pissed when I popped open a game of mine and found out it was a knockoff. I instantly took it outside and shot it to hell. Now when I’m looking at buying a game, I ALWAYS check it before I turn over even one penny. One specific screwdriver is all you need.

The Oracle games were pretty sweet, but I have to concur with @killamch89 on this. Link’s Awakening is one of the best. It’s more polished on the Switch, and made a couple of your items automatic like the Power Bracelet. On Game Boy, you have to equip it the same as everything else. Hookshot, powder, bow, etc. On Game Boy, everything, including your sword and shield have to be equipped. If an you need a certain item at an point you would have to replace either your sword or shield with it. It sucks, but that’s the Game Boy limitations.

Sooner or later, all platforms will phase out physical media and go entirely digital. We can already see it happening with the PS5 digital and Xbox Series S consoles. Nintendo is halfway there. A lot of titles are exclusively digital. AAA titles and Nintendo exclusives are still available either way. For me personally, I prefer physical media. I still buy CD’s. And with the systems out now, I just don’t get the point of digital only. Even if you never use it, I think it makes more sense to get a console that can run discs. You may never need it, but to intentionally deny yourself the option just doesn’t make sense to me. For example I have RDR2 on disc, but if I was to buy a digital system, I would have to buy the game all over again.

I’ve never actually tried it docked. I’ve always played mine handheld. Initially I had a Switch Lite, so it wasn’t an option. But I’ve been using a regular Switch for a few years now, and have so far never have taken advantage of the docking feature.

I think there are already SSB leagues. But what you call “retro” is what I call “daily”. I play NES and SNES all the time. I also play Atari 2600, Sega Genesis, N64, PS1, Game Boy, and a few scragglers from other platforms. The only current games of today are things like The Dark Pictures Anthology, RDR2, Layers Of Fear, Outlast, and random indie titles.

All 3 that you mentioned. Free climbing seems like it would be awesome but I’m too afraid of heights for any of the mentioned.

I’m ungodly claustrophobic. There’s times when I have to run outside because I feel like I’m being caged in, and the walls are closing in fast.

Terrified of heights. I’m over 6’ tall, and I don’t like being that high up.

Gunsmoke. It’s the closest what I’ve always wished for.

That’s as bad as being decapitated on a water slide. But at least with being decapitated death is a lot quicker.

I have a dinner sandwich recipe that I call Carnivores Delight. I put it together, pop it in the oven, and bingo! Supper.

I’m trying to find a violin teacher. If I can learn to play, I’m wanting to learn to play Celtic style music, as opposed to Carnegie Hall type of shit. Thats violin, NOT A DAMN FIDDLE

A swift kick in the ass every 2 minutes tends to work.

Pecan Snickers. I’ve loved pecans my whole life, and now they’re in a Snickers bar?🤤

I’m a MO native too, and those damn things are everywhere. Another we have to deal with here in my area is black widows. Beautiful to look at, but otherwise I don’t want a damn thing to do with them.

Does Xbox even have any exclusives other than Halo? Not including any they got from Activision-Blizzard.

When I was in boot camp we were thrown into the water from a 20’ high platform. That’s the highest for me. I’m not friends with the water, so I’ll stick to dipping my toes in the surf while on the beach.
