If I were capable of emotion Chumbles' speech might have triggered something.
As it is I'm off to get lunch.

I really need a dump. I'm not at my usual office, and the toilets here are windowless and straight off the corridor, with a high risk of noises and smells escaping, and my absence would be obvious to my minions. This is ungood. That is all. Alright Babyfark, just man up. |

Dump update. I went to Sainsbury's. I couldn't live blog it as there was no reception. Played the jumping dinosaur game instead.

You are very unappreciated, (honest)! ftfy I wouldn't have said it in that manner. The following are acceptable: Man up, wet pants. Dry your eyes, princess. |

5/15. As soon as I saw a picture of that gormless huge-faced cunt Ed sheeran the red mist descend. By the time I'd calmed down my phone showed: "5/15. At least you tried"

5/15... the only ones I knew were the Senegalese guy and "In this performance on Jools' Annual Hootenanny, Ed Sheeran performs a 1980s hit by a world famous Motown star. Who wrote and originally recorded MasterBlaster?" The rest just aimless clicking

Hello. 6/15. The stuff I knew I knew and the stuff I didn't I got wrong. No lucky guesses. Bright and windy day here. I have no idea what kind of microclimate with Lagrange cloud rain Sheep's living in. Ganes: No. I got lectured on the benefits of unfettered capitalism at The Other Place's FIFA 2020 review. Someone was talking about their worries that their "spending opportunities" would be "ruined" through tighter regulations and I'm sorry that this was a bait I had to bite. In the same vein, watched some reviewers of Mario Kart Tour on YouTube objecting to the egregious monetisation. I've accepted a long time ago that mobile phone games and me can never be friends. God knows I'm spending enough on video games but this is where I draw the line. Ganes! Drastically close to ordering That Dragon QUest. Or maybe Zelda. How is the Zelda? I'm the wrong person to ask because I'm Link's Awakening number 1 fan gal. It's a relatively short game with good replay value. What really sells this version is the art style which is just delightful. (One extremely minor quibble I had with the conversion from GameBoy graphics is that in the original the Keese (bats) were blending into the background, something that was used in one or two puzzles. Now they've got glowing eyes and are extremely easy to spot.) I've heard complaints about puzzles being too obscure or players having no clue what to do next, but I beat the game 26 years ago without the help of the internet, so you can imagine what I think of this. (Link's Awakening was followed by the Zelda Oracle games, and you don't even know what tough puzzles are until you've played Oracle of Ages. Which I have also beaten without the help of the interwebs.) Link's Awakening is known for its story and particularly its ending. It's a game that makes you resent it because it makes you do things that you don't want to do. The internet is currently awash with spoilers, so you need to take great care avoiding them to get the full experience. |

TL;DR?
Precis: Links Awakening is rubbish

Bloody hell, the BTL on that FIFA stuff is appalling, a combination of football nerds, gaming nerds and some strange economic nerds. Avoid.

8/15. Top guessing. Games I'm getting close to the end of Danganronpa, not seen it mentioned here but it's a good. Dino would had some chat from me  OTTM I've got to take my cat to the vet tonight because he's always wheezing, sort of like he has a hairball but it sounds sore now. |

Iirc Dankyl's in-laws are the benchmark for the awkward dump situation situation: trousers down, door wide open. Really own it.

I second Link's Awakening. I'm only on the second dungeon but it's pretty addictive. Old school feel to it, obvs, and fun to play.
