true, but eruption has wider and all-out-at-once kinda hitbox with superarmor and high(er than uair?) kill potential which kinda traps your enemy if they try to attack a little before eruption comes out. I'm saying that I don't remember my aerial eruption ever getting punished before so I wanna know the safety gauge of using it; not that I want to substitute nair or uair with it, just an addition to our arsenal.

I have my dazzle back so we can actually make a montage if people are okay with me doing it. I remember Brett said he wanted someone experienced to do it so I didn't really offer too then.

The whiff of eruption means they bait you into performing the attack, which leaves you open for punishment. The cool down time is too long for an aerial character like Jiggs to not punish.

And eruption's kill potential is overrated unless you charge it. I like N-air, because even if they air dodge, the swing can still hit them.

lol yeah, I was surprised myself that actually killed marth first. did you guys notice when ike hit marth while going down, he stopped at the bottom of the screen and waited for marth to die first before killing himself.

No doubt nair is better for punishing airdodges than aerial eruption, but i honestly think that aerial eruption's big hitbox above and below ike can be formidable if used correctly.

One thing i learned today, if MK tries to shuttle loop ike's eruption and the superarmor activates, MK will pause in the same spot and eat the eruption; he won't carry on with his loop like he does in the case of counter.

You had the stun jacket on you when Marth countered the 1st part of Aether.

I think I saw that happen in the ending of the Ike forum CV.

stun jacket, that thing still confuses me. I learned previously that stun jacket gives the person extra hitstun on his next move that connects. how did that stop ike from going down normally when he hit marth?

i think we need to get some hardcore research into the stun jacket, i myself cant get it work work, but im always on the ground when i do it, so maybe it only happens to an aerial counter?

If the researches I did some time ago are correct, here is the deal:
The stun jacket will activate when the person wearing it hits s/o in which case the opponent will "freeze" and his hitstun will be longer, or gets hit, in which case the hitlag of the move that hit you will be longer.

Turkey bacon or turkey and bacon?

Wrapping just about anything in bacon automatically makes the food in question exquisite.

thats called pigs in blankets and its the greatest meaty invention to ever be classed as finger food
oooooh, thats what its called here too, except instead of being wrapped in bacon the sausage is wrapped by a dough. Bacon sounds better though

That's what happens when you put your finger too far down your throat. :p

I don't understand why someone would take so much fast food and make it into something else...just buy some good healthy ingredients...

Smells and tastes great, though.

Ussi, I once blended a piece of pizza with a bunch of marinara sauce and cheese whiz (the cheese whiz was what made it bad idea) and turned it into a pizza shake.

Cheezwhiz "whipped cream," olive "cherry." It sadly didn't turn out as well as this video. There are pictures on my Facebook from this event.
I'm not really proud of it anymore because I didn't think out how awful it would be (considering the pizza to marinara/cheese whiz ratios).

However, it didn't stop m from having these moments of inspiration. Last night I thought of the Chicken Fried Shake.
And recently I came up with the idea of banana pudding-stuffed brownies.

When I was a child, I blended together a bunch of Mexican food. Started drinking it and threw up. It was then that I dubbed it Mexican BLEHHH.

I mean, whenever I eat things that are not meant to go together, I get an upset stomach. So uh...anything from that video would probably result in me being in the bathroom lol.

But yeah, the amount of fat on that stuff is ridiculous.

Your problem was drinking it.

If you had eaten it with tortilla chips, I bet it would've been wonderful.

Edit:
Just kidding. You're from NJ-- no such thing as good Mexican food there (or so I can assume).

Haha. That would be true if we didn't have taco bell over here. Yes, I know they're not real Mexican food, but their tacos are too good.

EDIT: I'm now reminded of when I actually went to Mexico and almost threw up from their cheese at Dominos.

You guys would love this place we have in Austin called Big Bite. Sandwiches are so messed up. Think a Subway foot long with chicken crispers, bacon, french fries, and some other crap in there.

Yah I don't mix foods like that. Although one time I mixed ranch dressing, ketchup, mustard, pickle juice, melted chocolate, whipped cream, milk, water, fruit punch, yogurt and vanilla ice cream and heated/mixed it until it was definitely a liquid. I then took a sip and threw up almost as soon as it touched my tongue.

Since then I haven't done much of that.

I used to mix peanut butter and ham all the time, wasn't bad, though I never finished any of it

I put bacon on my hamburger today. That's as much mixing as I'll ever do.
