I find this to be incredibly funny:
if you type that phrase in, on Twitter you instantly get this response.

I love this type of art-style, and I am a huge sucker for this:
Credits to Kenisu3000 and his Mother 1 comic he wrote, because damn... he is a talented individual.

Fucking... why is this meme? Why? Why are people using the term "Autistic" as an internet meme? I'm sure that 2% of people who use this term ACTUALLY know what autism even is. And for those people... you should stop using this as a derogatory word for "retarded" or "stupid"
Are some people just simply assholes that use it as an insult associated with impaired social skills? And I also just don’t understand the hate against fandoms deemed as “Autistic.” I have many friends who are Autistic and one of my past girlfriends was Autistic and I'll let you know this: they were all fully-functioning adults that if they were to tell you they were autistic you wouldn't know otherwise.

When everyone has free reign on the internet, all kind of unnecessary word connections are made.
@Combat KYM is a website dedicated to documenting any and all internet phenomenon (anything that touches the internet, really), not just memes. It documents most memes old and new, many fandoms, whatever fresh political controversy that Don (is forced to?) write about, and internet terms.

Single-handedly the 2nd best Chrome app, next to ad-blocker. Good. God. Now I can block all the videos with idiotic, click-baity thumbnails and channels that I absolutely want no part of. Which means every, less-than-stellar Poke-tuber channel, every "prank" channel, and every wannabe let's player channel that uses a facecam and has the most unflattering, click-baity thumbnails this side of idiotic.

tfw you click on an anime website, try watching the video and pressing the play button and then you open up a new tab because there was an ad placed there :L

tfw your parents say they want to give up on you and tell you to fuck off...
I turned out fine growing up, as you can tell...

Welp, I just found out, today in the mail, that the Tales of Eternia manga was published by Square/Square Enix(?) Wut.
For those of you who don't know, the Tales series is purely done by Namco/Namco Bandai, and seeing this is a little bit of a social no-no.
The other Tales manga's that I have are serialized and published by different companies, but what I don't get is why Square got involved with this.

So... why did they decide to retcon everything from the original Pokemon series in the 20th anniversary movie? Like, they included all the key moments from the show, but the characters are gone and are replaced by some new ones. I will say though... I do like that they played the original, Japanese, Pokemon theme song. Such an awesome song. Also I think my eyes exploded from that amazing animation.
Seeing the trailer for it really does make me remember what makes Pokemon good, and where the soul of the series is. What I'm saying is... I feel nostalgic in a good way. The magic of Pokemon is expressed very well in that one trailer.

When a long-running anime goes back to it's origins, it was usually meant to appeal to the older audiences, like bringing back their memories and nostalgic feelings. But even the older audiences have higher demands, if M20 is just a HD remake of the Indigo League, not only it would be less interesting (since they already knew what the story is), forcing the plot of like 100+ episodes into a 1.5 - 2 hour movie would make the plot wayyyy to rushed if the writers are not skilled at controlling pacing, and trying to give more screen time to the other main characters (Misty, Brock and even Gary) would worsen the situation. Which is probably why they introduced new characters, as the viewers won't be asking for more screentime for characters they hardly care about, and the movie can focus more on Ash and Pikachu (and Ho-oh, it really deserves more respect as the first legendary to appear in the anime series lol)
I guess such decisions just have to be made when you're selling a large franchise like Pokemon. But hey, at least they're bringing back (most of) Ash and Pikachu's origin story.

I figured as much with the way they'd compress ~100 or so into one movie. It'd be similar to the likes of Origins, which side note: I want an Origins 2: Gold and Silver.
I guess at this point I'll just have to see what the movie has entail, and I hope that it does deliver. I'm still 'gasming over that animation, because... my god was that awesome. The only thing I hope is that the movie isn't so long that it drags on and feels like a chore to watch.
Side note 2, electric boogaloo, I just found this, and it's not even relevant at all:

Yooka-Laylee is apparently not doing so well at the moment... I think I might just actually skip the game, if it was just going for nostalgia whoring over actual good-design.
Welp, at least there's A Hat in Time, which plays brilliantly, has a unique style and an overly adorable protagonist.

Me trying to watch a YouTube video about subject/topic/media that I'm interested in:
*video has 3 minutes of out-of-place skits/fight scenes before subject*
*closes video*

So, Persona 5 is out, and as for my thoughts on it... I'm gonna be Mr. Downer, in that... I don't like Persona. I've mentioned this before, but I seriously don't find it appealing. Persona 4 didn't really sell me on the series, especially after that heinously long, 3-hour intro of talking and no battles, except with that dream monster. I guess this type of RPG is just not my cup of tea, but I still consider Persona's choice system to be better than Sun/Moon's. That's a burn right there, since the choices in Sun/Moon did nothing, and changed nothing.
-
wouldn't Persona 4 have elements of like a visual novel for all the dialogue in the first couple hours. It would be liked by some people interested in the characters and probably the story but in Persona 1 and Persona 2 games it would act like a normal Shin Megami Tensei game such as Shin Megami Tensei 4, Probably just my Opinion. What made the Persona games mainstream was most likely Persona 4.
-
Persona 4, and it's one-thousand remakes across several hand-helds and home consoles. It was what you stated, plus the constant, unnecessary remakes, alongside it's annoying pacing that doesn't do it for me. But, I guess I'm just not into that style of RPG, because it is too slow for me, and that says something, given my reputation with RPG's.

Why is it that the 1st and 2nd generation of Mystery Dungeon, i.e. Red Rescue Team/Explorers of Sky generations, are so critically panned? The first 2 generations were masterpieces of Pokemon story-telling and even story-telling in general. The first generation, admittedly, had a ridiculously high learning curve and stupidly high difficulty. But, for me, even though Gates to Infinity is the black sheep and is terrible no matter how you look at it, these are the kinds of games that I feel deserve more than what critics gave them.
I guess that's why they're considered cult-classics and have a strong following, as opposed to the critical audience.
I'm not ruling out Super Mystery Dungeon, because this game was amazing in every right, I was mostly speaking in general for the entire Mystery Dungeon series as to why it doesn't receive nearly as much praise as it should.

It is by far my, personal, favorite Pokemon game. I remember watching a Gametrailers review of the Explorers series and them just ragging on it because of it's repetitive dungeon crawling and cinematic "cutscenes". Like... what? It made it out to be like those were criminally terrible and that ultimately brought the game down. Something like that, it was a stupidly short and mundane review from a, literal, decade ago.

MD series I can understand low scores in the 70s, but not what sites were giving it. In fact, everyone I know who played it loved it. Game review scores have gotten to the point imo that they are worthless (like sites would give high scores for the sake of revenue) and the only one I find semi reliable is Metacritic. Though critics gave FE Rev, which the Fandom recognizes as the worst FE game of all time, basically an 88.
I want to point that out to say this. It is not that the MD are bashed on, but that the whole review system is broke as a whole and that is one of the consequences.

Programming fun:
Class CustomMenu < TrainerAbilitiesClass
do fun stuff
def morefunstuff
return morefunstuff
end
end
That's the sound of Dylan having fun. Aliasing never felt better when you meld those superclasses together and all those custom methods and classes execute like a dream. It's beautiful. Programming fun at it's finest, when spamming "ifs and elsifs" isn't present, making the code much easier to read and interpret. Biggest programming pet-peeve right there, when you look at someone's code to help them and it's just an ocean of "if" statements.

Minor aggravation: When you search for an English Dub of an anime, and you get a link on Google that says "Episode 12: English Dubbed" and it turns out to be the Subbed version... Is the website owner just stupid and doesn't know the difference between Dubbed and Subbed, or was this intentional click-bait? If it's the latter, kindly fuck you website owner.

This only reinforces why Ruby is my programming language of choice, over other languages that I've learned in college:

You're thinking about what it will be like when you come to America, and this is what it's like: you got your Comfort Inn, you got your Best Western and you got your Red Lobster, where you eat. Everyone is very fat, everyone is very stupid and everyone is very rude.
That, unfortunately, is a fact.

People ask me "Dylan, what Tales games have you played/own and what is the weirdest you've obtained?"
Answer: Almost all of them, including these ones:
Yes this is a thing and it was made. This is official material, and it is hilarious. I'm glad I own this and a Japanese PS2, because wow.

For those of you curious as to how much the budget for my game is, in the past 5 years I've spent upwards to 42,030 dollars. Which... I could've used to pay off some of my school loans, or buy a new car or... anything that isn't this. But, about 10,000 of that was also for the manga, if you want to include that in the final tally.

@Dylanrockin I won't say anything more on the matter other than I pray to the heavens you actually finish what you've been working on so far ('cause at this point, you kind of at the point of no going back). I can't really judge you too much on it because I spend god knows how many hours on a mod which in the long run, will be forgotten about and unrecognized. In other words, it's almost like I'm wasting my time doing nothing (but I do it because it's fun).
@DemICE From experience, the hardest part of one of these projects is not getting enough it done, but putting forth the effort continuously. Money really isn't the biggest factor in making a super ambitious project.

I've been so stressed for the past 58 hours that I did not sleep until 8 hours ago. I was so tired that when I tried counting to 10 I had to start over 4 times.
... It took me 4 times to count to 10.

Seems legit. I don't see anything wrong with this, I don't know about you.
