Then: "The miracle weight-loss berry that's sweeping the world off its feet!"
|
|
|
15:44:54
|
|
|
Did they blame it on the banks?
|
|
|
15:44:09
|
|
|
Like their little sting operation at the self-service checkouts at Big W. If you're stupid enough to walk off without your substantial change, you deserve to have the next person at the thingy take it for themselves.
|
|
|
15:43:49

|
Then 6 months later, they would run a story about how banks are scrutinising the transactions of old farts to stop them from being scammed. "HOW THE BANKS ARE SEIZING CONTROL OF YOUR ACCOUNTS WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION."
|
|
|
15:42:53
|
|
|
"Banks need to do more to stop vulnerable people like the elderly from being scammed. It's not enough to just tell them that it's a scam, they need to stop approving the transactions."
|
|
|
15:42:52
|
|
|
Don't forget their reporter responding to a similar email for an illustration of how easy it is to get sucked in
|
|
|
15:41:22
|
|
|
They would spend two minutes explaining the scam and then the other 8 minutes saying things like "And despite their suspicions, his BANK STILL ALLOWED HIM TO SEND MONEY."
|
|
|
15:40:34
|
|
|
It's getting o the point where he's spent more money trying to save money than he would have had he just bought them from Epson.
|
|
|
15:39:07
|
|
|
I look forward to seeing him on A Current Affair
|
|
|
15:39:00
|
|
|
"It says Epson compatible" "Yes but there are different models of Epson printers."
|
|
|
15:38:31
|
|
|
(That has actually happened and, despite it being explained to him that it was most likely a scam, the man is still sending money.)
|
|
|
15:38:06

|
Also, my dad needs to stop trying to buy ink cartridges over the internet
|
|
|
15:37:46
|

|
"Why would anyone pretend to be a disenfranchised woman from a shitty country?"
|
|
|
15:35:05
|
|
|
"If my computer tells me it, it must be true."
|
|
|
15:30:00
|
|
|
Yup, old people love getting scammed.
|
|
|
15:29:45
|
|
|
They're targeting the elderly

Finally saw the movie Looper. It was good but it's a little strange seeing Joseph Gorden Levitt slightly altered to look kind of like Bruce Willis. I don't think that was necessary.

... Unless "Digital Contents Selection" is a separate thing from the Ultimate Hits release. Because then Ultimate Hits is just Square Enix's budget range.
|
|
|
12:19:19
|
|
|
There was one game, generally considered average, that did actually call it "Game of the Year Edition", but I don't remember what it was.
|
|
|
12:18:53
|
|
|
Not in terms of what they actually are, no. But usually the shittier games use a different moniker.
|
|
|
12:13:11
|
|
|
Doesn't a game have to be good or, at least successful, before it gets a GOTY edition?
|
|
|
09:52:36
|
|

News in the same way that... some analogy.
|

Sounds like a GOTY edition. Big whoop.
|
|
|
09:41:24
|
|
|
Also there's going to be something called 'Final Fantasy XIII-2 Digital Contents Selection'
|
|
|
09:40:58
|
|
|
But I'm pretty sure they just confirmed an Ultimate Hits Edition of XIII-2
|
|

09:40:39

Now I'm not a pro at Japanese

It's all about Yugioh TAS.
|
|
|
07:26:24
|
|
|
Best decision I've ever made.
|
|
|
07:26:13

I started watching Batman TAS again.
|

Well I think a certain incident between them involving an old man is a good allegory of why it can't work between them.
|
|
|
05:16:21
|
|
|
Gee, I guess you'll just have to stop watching
|
|
|
05:15:31

I honestly can't handle Jon and Ygritte in this show

"Pope also canonised Colombia's Laura di Santa Caterina da Siena Montoya y Upeguila" That's one hell of a name

And here I am, making myself dinner and about to continue painting my mural a bit more before I shower and go to bed. FML

Then I watched Schindler's List, which I couldn't watch during the week cuz it's 3 fucking hours long. LOL
|
|
|
00:53:35
|
|
|
I woke up at 2pm, talk about enjoying most of it.
|
|
|
00:53:23
|

00:51:47

You enjoy them so much more when they come though.

The joy of knowing my only free day is coming to it's end... ;;
|
|

20:17:52

Never had it as far as I can remember
|
|
|
20:05:21

Me neither. I just bought some from a gas station. Pretty tasty.

I haven't had chocolate milk for yonks.

Capcom was being super difficult with the delivery.
|
|
|
13:22:00
|
|
|
They were still waiting for their CPS2 cabs.
|
|
|
13:15:22
|
|
|
Which, again, had it's code being carried around in a dude's pocket and not in any of the machines
|
|
|
13:15:07
|
|
|
That's probably the most unbelievable part.
|
|
|
13:14:19

This was an arcade 'virtual reality' game
|
|
|
13:13:05
|

PC has had patches since forever.
|
|
|
13:11:44
|
|
|
A year if it's Bethesda and never if it's Konami.
|
|
|
13:11:38
|
|
|
It was 1994, they didn't have patches
|
|
|
13:11:24
|
|
|
Oh, and the game's 'source code' is carried around on a floppy disk in a guy's pocket
|
|
|
13:11:21
|
|
|
Or months, if it happens to be an EA game.
|
|
|
13:11:11
|
|
|
Everyone knows they'd just release the game and patch it two weeks later.
|

We'll rewrite, then get the voice actors in to re-record their lines, then re-do all the animations on those characters, then rewrite the code so they show up in new places and THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE QUICKER AND EASIER THAN FIXING THE GLITCH
|
|
|
13:09:23
|
|
|
|
13:08:33
|

13:08:23

"There's no time to reprogram the code!" "How about I rewrite the game to remove the character who's glitching?" "Of course! That's much quicker an easier!"
|
|
|
13:07:26
|
|
|
A week before a release of a very expensive game to make, an unavoidable, game-breaking glitch is discovered 14 seconds into the first scene of the game
|
|
|
13:06:40
|
|
|
"Oh no! The phone has disrupted our node to the webernets!"
|
|
|

Okay, I know that TV sucks at understanding computers and video games (as an extension of computers), but Murder She Wrote just took it to a new level

Of course it's after Genesis Rhapsodos.

Speaking of fish and songs, we found this thing in the deposit of the store I work at. 
|
|
|
17:52:01
|
|

I really hope that's not as in Genesis Rhapsodos.

Our newest member's name is Rhapsodos...

Oh, and we can never forget the Quiznos subs song.
|
|
|
17:47:37

The fish mcbite's jingle is lodged in my brain and refuses to leave, but that may be too recent.
|

17:47:10

17:47:05

I'm having a lot of trouble thinking of any that aren't horrifically dated. I don't hear many jingles these days.
|

17:46:47

There's the Pepsi kid's song too. You know, the joy of Pepsi.

Five dollar footlong from Subway comes to mind.

There's going to be a TMNT film?

You know how they suck at web-promotion, they're probably better off having Disney pick up the slack
|

17:39:52

Surprised it isn't Square...
|
|

17:39:46

the embedded trailer for kh hd on the north american site is hosted on the "Disney Interactive Studios" youtube page, they even have an ad for the game at the top.

I have to replace a reference to Mmm-Bop with something that won't date as badly
|

Like, every Australian knows the words to the Happy Little Vegemite song
|
|
|
17:34:19
|
|
|
Speaking of the writing side of things: what's a song or advertising jingle that every person in America knows the words to?
|
|
|
17:33:41

Oh, the bad news is this is in #21 and I still have plenty of text in #20 to do and Ax doesn't feature too much in that one
