Maryse

athens dash - Hmm...not too bad. This one, I will play on occasion.
daisy cruiser - Considering I have played this track in double dash for the past 14 years, it should not be surprising that I placed daisy cruiser in the Maryse Cup tier. And for once, one of my predictions was right! I know, I know... "You ain't the only who predicted it, lady."
moonview highway - I am sorry, but this track can go to hell. And yes, I did play on this track because I do make an effort to play all tracks on this game at least once each. In mkwii, I almost never touch this track since the traffic can be hard to avoid. It may have less traffic here in mk8, I am still not a fan.
squeaky clean sprint - Enjoyable. With that out of the way, I think about that clock in the background at the starting line. The time it shows should match up with the time on your switch's internal clock.
los angeles laps - I liked it here. I have a good mind to create a few miis based off of jack, janet, and chrissy--you know, the main characters from three's company, one of my top-favorite sitcoms--and have them race on this track.
sunset wilds - An innocuous track with minimal obstacles, and I tend to favor tracks like this. This is a potential candidate for the Maryse Cup.
koopa cape - I rarely played it in mkwii. But now that those damn koopa zappers are absent, this track is much more tolerable. This is a potential candidate for the Maryse Cup.
vancouver velocity - Now, idk about the rest of y'all, but the background music on this track was pretty damn catchy as to be lit! I should play this **** come my birthday next month. Driving along the suspension bridge was my favorite part. This will be added to the Maryse Cup.

ひとつ - I only watched the nintendo direct for wave 5 dlc for mario kart 8. The new track checks out for me. Still hoping for daisy cruiser, mario circuit 2 (snes), and peach circuit (gba). Of the three revealed characters, I give two thumbs-up for kamek. Other than that, my girl getting a new platformer was a nice surprise.
ふたつ - Damn, it looks I walked in on pranking season.
みっつ - IDK about the rest of y'all, but the subtitles for youtube videos can sometimes get so inaccurate as to be hilarious.
そしてよっつ - @Jotadé welcome back again!

Loved It! - Korean BBQ, Spicy Chicken
Very Good - Teriyaki Chicken, Teriyaki Beef

Never Tried Before, I Wanna Try - Spicy Beef, Beef Taco, Roast Chicken
Never Tried Before, But Not So Sure I Wanna Try - Cheddar Cheese, Four Cheese Flavor
Never Eating That **** Again - Tomato Basil

(while dashing): "I gotta keep my dress clean!"
(during initial dash): "I do too, girlfriend!"
(during full dash animation): "Ya know what, the hell with it. I don't mind getting dirty!"
: "I second that ****, girlfriend!"

My "grandmother" turns 85 today. She is not my real grandmother but I have known her and her extensive immediate family since circa 1968. I had family that lived a few blocks up the hill from them at that time even though I moved to Atlanta in early 1964.

It was around July 1990 when one of her daughters was going to have a son. I lost my whole family to complications a few years before then, but they finally decided to take me in and I have been living with them since.

My "grandmother" had quite a number of children. She had several daughters--one born in 1957 but passed away in 2003, another born late 1959 but passed away in 2020, one born in late 1958 and still with us today, another born in 1961 but five months older than I am, another in spring of 1963, another in late 1964 (this particular one is my "mom"), and had a son in spring of 1971.

She married a war veteran and he quite a handyman. He was born 1939 and passed away in 2015. Since then she lived alone and even experienced a break-in. Praise God she made it out of that **** alive. One of her grandsons (1996-present) has been tending to her, especially as his father (circa 1953-2023) passed away about a month ago. Similar to me, he is without an immediate family.

In more recent years, her house has grown mold in the cellar and she is still living in it despite her daughters' pleas to get the house renovated. She visited me past summer and she has recently returned to Georgia, staying with her now-eldest daughter. Today, they are going to celebrate with dinner at Red Lobster. Me, I ain't going, not with my awful social anxiety. Besides, if you had it once, you had it your whole life.

Here is hoping she lives another 15-20 years. To put things in perspective, one woman near where I stay was born in 1909 and she celebrated her birthday about a month and a half ago!

ひとつ - "Ehh, everybody cheater! Next time I cheat! Heh heh heh!"
ふたつ - "Ah, Waluigi lose! Impossible!"
みっつ - "I get you next time, cheaters!"

ひとつ - It amuses me that in Giant Melee on the Temple a LV9 CPU get stuck in the bottom part. It happens with , too.
ふたつ - Yay! Unlocked in Super Mario Party yesterday night!
みっつ - Maryse Fact #97 - On the victory screen for the Final Countdown mini-game, I like to form prime numbers out of the numbers showing (across, vertically, diagonally).
そしてよっつ - Maryse Fact #98 - About the 150cc engine class...I never use it Mario Kart 64, rarely in Double Dash, but fairly often in Wii and 8 Deluxe.
