  1. Is TANIS good at the moment? I fell behind, and was already getting confused. May hafta go ketchup.
  2. I don't have time to f with that broken violin right now, as much as I appreciate the humor of recieving a "Johnson Stringed Instruments" catalog in the mail. I am trying to make space for exercise equipment and sewing machine work.
  3. References to videogames or things that have had toy series made of them will be listed sooner, if anyone wants anything particular. I may not have it but I will look. I do not have Excite Bike.

    Episode 147 - Julie Klausner, Back Again

    Non-fantasy, I need to draft someone that knows what's going on to, at the very least explain things to me, even if they won't convey messages for me. This is me begging. Like a dog. Please, I do not understand why.
  5. Rubber masks are for pussies. Of course by that I mean "Always wear a condom".
  6. I have, and it seemed illegal. Like what the actual fuck.

    My pasta has come back to haunt me

    It'll do that. Thats why from now on I am sticking to unlimited breadsticks and word salad with no dressing..
  8. I sincerely apologize for my crass.... I hesitate to even call it a joke. It was just playing off of the line about tacos in the iron man car commercial. I am so sorry. I never talk like that, I dont even think like that. I just mirror the energy of those I am interacting with. I am so sorry.
  9. I once joked that I had a medical condition that prevented me from speaking at high volumes, thinking of the idea of "being cold" toward people and the fact that motion of atoms slows as temperature drops. What I did not anticipate at that time, was that I had the capacity to draw any attention from the world whatsoever. I had found one person who seemed to be on my wavelength ( not a regular podcast listener, as far as I know, I got them to listen to a couple but..moving on) and that was enough for me. Almost more than I could handle at the time. Probably more than they could handle also. I have a myriad of real medical conditions but my jesting claim is not among them. I would do my whole life different if I could, nevermind remedial speech th-th-th-th-therapy.

    I would like to draft someone who actually knows what is going on to tell the only person in the world I'd felt any real connection with in 7+ years that I miss them very much.

    ^ this is good
  12. Mine too and I really hate the answer I have to give. Sometimes survival has to be an accomplishment in itself, as lame as it sounds. Hope you feel better, not playing around. I have dealt with depression most of my life and its a rough ride.

    If I womansplained it it would be more innapropriate, no? I am what I am and that's all what I am and I'm just some guy, so everything I say is mansplained. Edit: And I think I deserve at least a few bonus points for owning most of the Dresden Dolls' albums. Yes, I am one of those freaks that actually buys the CDs of the music I like. Edit2: When my finances permit which they currently do not, according to this overdue billing notice from my health insurance.

    No I wasnt even bothered in the first place about you saying "flakes". Silent Hill is just one of the few topics I can really speak on and I like to do so, and I miss the storytelling style of the original games so I feel like if I spread the word about how/why they were good games, maybe people will go back and give them a chance if they had never tried them before, and someday more games might come out that have real depth to them. It was nothing to do with what you said, really, my soapbox is just really specific so I stand on it any chance I get. Edit: Recently, a game called "Layers of Fear" lived up to that standard IMHO, and is about the inner struggle of a perfectionist painter who loses his muse and how this causes his whole world to collapse around him.

    Episode 147 - Julie Klausner, Back Again

    Incoming nerd rant... Silent Hill doesn't have flakes, it has fog. In the first game this was a graphical limitation disguised as a bizarre environmental phenomenon but by the second game it had become a metaphor for lack of foresight on the part of the main character, and in the third game the fog was a way for the main character to block out traumatic memories, which it could also be said was true of the second game. The whole rust and paint peeling away and ashes falling from the sky (the latter being based on the still burning underground coal fires of Centralia Pennsylvania) were incorporated into the movie adaptations which are not canon. The Silent Hill canon ends with the forth game, which even then was tenuous, not even taking place in the town itself, but following SH4: The Room, the series was outsourced to different companies outside of Japan and Akira Yamaoka's involvement (Who also wrote the music for the games up to that point) ceased. The monster with the pyramidal head should not ever have appeared outside of the second game since each character experiences their own personal hell inside of the town and there should be no overlap of monsters between different people, but more over it DEFINETLY shouldn't have appeared as it did in the films because the pyramid is a phallus and was the male main character's own ego haunting him for what he had done. Game one, the series was finding itself. Game two was an exploration of a male's experience of regret. Game three was an exploration of a female's experience of trauma. Game four was about agorophobia. After that it gets all scattershot and may as well have a different title slapped on the franchise. People don't get metaphor.

    I can dig that some are into ASMR, but after so much metal it feels exclusionary (meaning it makes me sad despite being no one's fault but mine) to my ability to hear soft sounds. Also I couldnt hear you on mic because I was listening to the new rap album from Death Grips.

    I think a major problem that society at large has yet to tackle is some form of consistent way to convey the tone of voice in which text is meant to be read. The line between bitter sarcasm and honest irony is just fucking me up hardcore style.

    I WANT artists and authors to get money for their work, what I regret is my disbelief in folklore.

    I had to read 'The Giver' in 6th grade. At the time i thought it was boring AF but I may have to give it another shot on Audible as an adult because there were some powerful ideas in there, looking back. Edit: Looking back in the more recent past, "The King in Yellow" may have been a poor choice for my free trial. Eh, what can ya do.

    I don't know what Google play's deal is. Howl kept rejecting my credit card even though its perfectly good, and Google play wouldn't even let me purchase google play credits with it even though I could still buy other apps like this fake version of Siri, which has been refusing to give me a horoscope reading for the past week (even though she has not yet repeated herself when I say "Tell me a joke!"). The struggle is real to not become a full blown conspiricy theorist, some days. But deep down inside, I know that there is no such thing as surprise parties....
