So it's the first day of Ramadhan, and the first thing I saw on TV when I woke up this morning was an ad for a new all-you-can-eat restaurant. Who says the universe doesn't have a sense of humor? Happy Ramadhan, everybody!

Because I don't want to feel old alone, let's play "I'm so old..." and provide the whippersnappers some trivias along the way, shall we? Example: "I'm so old I know that Red Dead Redemption was a SEQUEL. R.I.P. Red Dead Revolver."
It's hilarious that everything Phil Fish said in that fateful 2012 GDC panel now applied to just about every Ubisoft games and every other garbage game publishers in the West. Don't @ me, Ubisoft fanboys.
I asked ChatGPT to write an outline for a movie based on the Contra and Centurions cartoon series. It amused me how quick advancements in AIs are and how incredibly predictable big budget Hollywood action movies can be, because I got the same scripts.
What are the dumbest things you've said or heard as a teenager? No judgment, no hate, just things that you've heard and or said before you're of legal drinking age that today makes you shake your head going, "GOD that was real DUMB!"
As I sit here wondering if I would actually be watching and loving "Drive" if the trailer hadn't lied to me, please tell me your own stories where trailers/ads/promos blatantly lie to you about what the end product is actually about.
Random Thoughts While Pooping Hot Take Edition: saying "all superhero movies are the same" is precisely as stupid as saying "Ratatouille and Psycho are the same movies because there is a man who wields a kitchen knife in them."
While y'all be clamoring for Nintendo Direct, I'll be sitting here contemplating a Genshin Impact VA scandal. Link: https://twinfinite.net/2023/02/english-voice-actor-genshin-impacts-tighnari-faces-allegations-of-inappropriate-conduct/
Random Thoughts While Pooping Ars Goetia Edition: why are the Goetians called "demons" when a lot of their skills and powers are beneficial to humans? I mean, one takes money from the wealthy and divide it evenly among the people! How is that evil?
You know what I hate? Corporations trying to take ownership of everything. A long time ago, sharing a funny meme is as easy as right-clicking and sending it to your friends. Now you have bullshit like right-click disabling over public domain materials.
Found this little gem, and while I get that this is a joke made by MTV, it amazes me how many things gets a pass by corporate executives back then as opposed to today.
Destructoid, what underrated or niche movie/TV series/cartoons/comics deserved a next-gen video game adaptation? Personally, I want a Mystery Men in the same vein as Gotham Knights. I mean, can't be any worse than the actual Gotham Knights game, right?
Hot Take: "disgruntled former employee" is such a bullshit excuse when deflecting shitty corporate behavior. Of course every former employee will be disgruntled; there's no such thing as a "contented former employee."
MovieToids, which movies that everybody else despise that you can't help but love? Mine would be "The Musketeer" (2001). Everybody and their grandma knows the story, so why not have an epic fight scene stolen from Jet Li movies instead?

Calling all millenials! Because I don't want to feel old all alone, would you mind sharing some of your pre-internet memes? You know, things like typing "80085" on the calculator because it spells "BOOBS".
Remember that South Park episode where Earth was revealed to be a trashy daytime reality TV for aliens? That's how it felt like when I hear about shit like this: https://kotaku.com/activision-blizzard-daniel-alegre-yuga-labs-bayc-ceo-1849914535
There's an anime cosplay event at the mall where my office is today. I gotta say, there is a TON of anime characters whose entire costume is just their Japanese middle school uniform with sword/scythe/weird glowy thing on their person!
