spread + AEW sounds like a great time OP I think its possible that your friends are not pro-level friends but maybe something else is amiss?

• live in ohio
• not good at video games
• only know 4 girls, all have same name
• the guys were all white dudes with beard + glasses, couldn’t tell each other apart
• invited mean guy

if not one of those try getting pro friends

So it has been with all political carrots in the United States my entire adult life, regardless of who is in charge, which is why I don’t believe in nations or electoralism anymore

“One of the last frontiers of vehicle safety” If you’re going to post this sort of stuff where people can see it, maybe you could cover it with Content Warnings and Propaganda tags?

Those games are also excellent IIRC, especially Michael Keaton’s acting in Batman for the Nintendo Entertainment System however that game is only loosely canon as it states on the game’s Wikipedia.

Okay, because you said I’m the best, I’ll explain some more because you are right, there are some cases where your Mom gets you “Revenge of the Joker” or “Batman Forever” when you’re a kid and maybe you don’t immediately think back to Michael Keaton’s excellent acting in things like Birdman and Batman Returns on Super Nintendo. Whatever, I’m not trying to judge your mom, how is she supposed to know in 199X which Batman games to get. But here’s the thing, people used to complain all the time about how there weren’t any Batman videogames where you actually feel like Batman until Arkham Asylum and I will tell you right now that is because they suck at videogames. You can actually do almost all of the stuff you see in the Tim Burton movie in this Konami videogame. For example, if you are good enough you can walk through the clown crowd and smash that one intimidating clown’s head with concrete just like in the movie. Michael Keaton has the shortest reach of any person featured in the whole game, just like in the movie, even though about 65% of the game is about punching. Batman can blast through Gotham in the Batmobile and have to shoot boring, bullet-sponge enemies in a confusingly underbaked mandatory vehicle section which is both in the movie and a full 20 years earlier than Arkham Knight made that mistake. Most Lemmy videogamers though? They will never see that vehicle level because it is after Catwoman and the mid-game boss rush and they are poor videogame players, nobody is sure why. You could try and prove me wrong but I’m openly sure that you won’t, because your prose is not that of a Fighting Game Tech-Understander Pro Gamer.

hi i’m robert reich and i have no idea what is going on or why at any time and that’s my whole thing

i don’t have time for him beyond whether the last attempt on his life worked and promoting hate-fluff about him doesn’t do anything about his breathing problem

i’d rather have my feed populated by better content

Stories like this on lemmy are great because you can just block the poster and poof your whole feed improves

you have explained the joke very eloquently

edit for clarity: it is a very dry observational riff on the tragic irony of the situation

fascist crackdowns at home are bad, you do want to avoid that
