I'm here for a meme time, up votes to the left thanks

  • Realtalk, we have one just outside of town. Its not a bad experience just more effort and time than I want to put up with now that I'm on my own for a jack-o-lanturn. I have decorations and participate in candy handouts, but I usually forgot the pumpkin. Apartment living in the US means nothing to do with it as it gets soggy after 9 days.

    The new other half wants to go though so I just might end up doing hay rides this year haha.

  • I hadn't considered it this way

  • Doubt they even still sell these, but idk i stole it from someone else 3+ years ago, like all memes

  • It wouldn't have worked. They were at war and wanted to fight. You see it even in Bad Batch - clones so attached to being a soldier and fighting they want to serve the new Empire, even as the Empire is "decomissioning" them. Theres an arc where a senator asks what they want to do now that they're retired and the initial reply is "uh we don't want to be, we want to continue being soldiers" even though the Empire was evil. Clones leaving service was so odd they get side stories specifically about them.

    They would have been largely immune to that kind of propaganda, although it could have made a nice arc for Padme, instead of half the...whatever boring shit she and jarjar got up to.

  • The voice line also plays at like, the maximum dialoge volume. Super jolting.

  • I heard this in Greg Eagles' (Grim) voice

  • I got tickets to the blernsball game.

  • Idk theres a line where it's a joke. A corp surely would not make this type of ad.

  • I know I shouldn't but I don't know if I have the strength

  • It's a simple equation. But out of habit and not wanting to get it wrong, we type it into a calculator just to be sure, but it makes you look dumb, so you look around to ensure no one thinks you can't do basic math

  • Children think being adult is the ability to have ice cream whenever you want. But then as an adult we realise why we shouldn't.

  • You get a full size candy bar for putting up with it though

  • This is also possible! I could be wrong and this entire succession and even announcement was planned. Still not happy about a marketing guy taking the helm but ah cest la vie.

  • Not specifically trying to wade into politics so I will keep it middle-road.

    On tuesday, the US federal government posted a video through their immigration enforcement agency (named ICE) featuring the Pokemon Theme song and using the slogan "gotta catch them all" when referring to catching illegal immigrants. They also featured several mugshots as Pokemon cards using the "make a Pokemon card editor" I'm sure we've all played with.

    Nintendo has, in the past, been very litigious of Pokémon, as they own GameFreak. It came as a bit of a shock when the official statement was that they were not going to do anything. Many people feel that if the current administration was not rebuked properly for the use of Pokemon, it may feel emboldened to begin using other IPs for its marketings.

    Additionally, Nintendo branding has come under some....less than positive light between pokemon game issues, lawsuits of palworld, the negativity around the recent "summon and battle" patent, and more even against the very strong sales of the Switch 2 and games. On paper Nintendo of America is doing very well and is profitable, but there may be boardroom drama.

    My suspicion is that Doug Bowser of Nintendo US and Nintendo Japan obviously covered these topics in meetings. My statement is that he may just be tired of arguing with the Japan office as a whole and is ready, after only a decade, to retire.

    My second remark is that marketing people keep getting promoted to CEO, and have a penchant for constant promises that valuation will always go up and they can make more money, forever. It is a lie so many companies believe, and its both not surprising but still upsetting to see yet another marketing person taking the position.

  • I'm wondering if this is due to internal turmoil over ICE. Bowser knowing he will have to navigate more things like this if it goes unanswered, but also a reaction might draw the ire of a government with an entire national budget to fight with, and the back and forth with home office is finally too much pressure.

    That said, the new ceo will be the former head of Marketing because of-fucking-course. More "line can go up forever" promises to shareholders.

  • "I have a lot on my mind right now"

  • I figured, but also now theres just straight up separate pools I think. When you create an account one of the settings is specifically "looking for friends". Part of "the game" I'm glad I dont have to race around trying to play anymore tbh. (But yeah no I get totally sucks on the women's end too for the opposite reason it sucks for men)

  • No I understand the rationale and why this occurs in the way it does, but not the process theyre going about it.

    My thought was "surely if there was a larger trend AFTER these hookup patterns there'd be talk of it" but I am not the type of person/near the people who would be affected so I hear nothing and find that...unusual, given how much tea would be spilled back and forth on social media of "paul" recognizing "george" on grindr

  • Still somehow still costs less than pulling Ronald O in fifa boxes. (I hear he is hard to pull)
