Wendy’s is the only fast food I don’t feel shame about eating.

Wendy's <3
I've loved Wendy's since I was 3 years old. Would get the 99 cents kids chicken nugget meal. Good times.
Nowadays I get the spicy chicken sandwich or the dave's single cheeseburger.
In general though, I enjoy their menu. It's great for fast food standards.

The reason I’m bad at math is because I’ve devoted a huge chunk of my brain to memorizing every Pokémon.

At least you can count past 800 with little effort, right?

 

[MooMew64]

Finished Crimson Flower in Three Houses. Was my first playthrough.

Gameplay wise and character personalities? Pretty awesome.

Overall narrative of the path? ...Eh, I didn't really like it in the end. Felt super rushed too with only 18 chapters. Felt like there was just build up for stuff that just doesn't get used at all.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

i know aim probably late but Japan loves to make bishies out of things. Example, Ronold and Hamburgler

 

[Shyy_Guy595]

Yeah, maybe I gotta try the good stuff cause Wendy's is pretty meh over here. Personally never got why there was such a big community of people who love the place.

Anyways, Toxtricity in Smash plz.

How y'all doin' tonight, have I missed anything?

 

[SnakeFighter64]

In looking into American Golden Age Animation in Japan, I just discovered “Princess Knight”. It sounds innocent enough, but it ends up including some.... interesting..... ideas about gender. Makes me kind of uncomfortable.

I better not tell what just happened at my house.

At this thread however, we had a big talk about fast food restaurants.

I mean, it was the 50's. You gotta look at it that it was a time piece.

Can't be any more offensive than what Looney Toons did back in its hayday, that's for sure.

 

[Aurane]

When it comes to Wendy's, I stay for the memes, not the food.

Apparently, and I'm surprised I'm just learning this, Mike Bloomberg dropped out of the race.

He didn't get it done.

I feel ya man. It’s been a rough week for me too.

Whataburger is still the best fast food place, basically a Texas exclusive though so I’m sure most here haven’t had it.

Y'all can never convince me that Looney Toons doesn't have one of the most hilariously offensive pasts ever.

I don't get offended like, at all by anything, but watching those old cartoons, even I could see how this **** didn't age well, at all.


Casual blackface, Asian and Native American stereotypes for days.

Not sure if this Twitter account belongs to any particular user on this forum, but it really puts the Nintendo information drought into perspective:

To all of the pseudo-intellectuals and corporate apologists who are chastising Nintendo fans and telling them to "jUsT PlAy ExIsTiNg GaMeS" while we wait for a Direct, here is a complete list of every first-party game Nintendo has announced in the past year (since 03/04/2019): pic.twitter.com/JqwLWinD6s

Even if we include remakes like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, since they'd take a significant effort to make, that's only four announced (not even released - announced) titles from Nintendo over the course of an entire year, which seems like an bizarrely small number given the Switch's momentum.

Mind you, I do have a lot of games to work through in my backlog, but I've already beaten a lot of my physical games. Three of my remaining physical games are RPGs, but I don't know how long Astral Chain will be, and Link's Awakening won't take long to beat based on how quickly I got through dungeons 4 and 5.

I’m really starting to think the corona virus might be a factor. It’s caused shortages in the market so switch production is probably struggling right now. Which means less likely to make sales or do well in producing the games themselves either. On top of the fact a lot of their audience is confined to their homes and probably scared right now, it wouldn’t be the right time to do one until the health scare is over.

It’s not..... worse..... to be honest, as a trans woman, I find aspects of Bugs’s cross dressing to be empowering. It’s just..... cringe is not the right word...... it’s just bad.

Yeah. Animation in general had a problem with that back then. Especially thanks to the Second World War. Thankfully there are plenty of cartoons and shorts that avoided those subjects and have aged perfectly well.

Considering health officials say they won't have a vaccine until next year at the earliest, that's gonna be a fair bit.

Go ahead, Mr. Trainer. Hurry it up.

If this virus ends up bringing all other events to a screeching ****ing halt then we should just lay down and let it wipe us out.

Fair point, at least until it cools down. If not, E3 they will probably have to go and put out everything.

 

[Deleted member]

Normally I would try to bright up the mood of the chat in regards to the whole Coronavirus thing.

But these past days have been so goddam awful, with things just getting worse for me that at this point I'm basically expecting every possible bad thing to happen. I just don't have the needed positivity to help others deal with the concerns about the virus.

Doesn't help that the more I talk with others about the virus is the more I believe I'm going to die at least before June.

The corona virus may be a factor, but we still got an AC direct and PMD and AC are coming out this month still, and there’s that Fighter Pass Vol. 2 card they’re gonna start selling, so idk. Could put a dent in later plans though I suppose, so I guess that could get in the way of a direct, but I don’t really know.

Sora has about 3 hearts inside of him a boy named Roxes, a boy named Ventus, and a girl named Xion

Okay. I knew that. But then Kingdom Hearts 3 ended.

x'D At least say that the chunk you are using to memorize the Pokemon works....I'm currently trying to remember every character, every place and all the events that I'm listening to in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion. I found it on Youtube and it lasts 11 hours (I have gone through just 2 hours). :'D I don't know why I'm doing this to myself, but the curiosity killed me. The only thing I find pretty funny is like how everyone sang so pretty, with the exception of Melkor/Morgoth that for everyone, including his father to get mad that he insisted into singing bad made me think that he probably sounded like that Heavy Metal Rooster video. x'D And Sauron and the Balrog are somewhere in there.

I'm currently sick so, I have been sleeping most of the day, so to not get bored, at least I am listening to it, but some stuff is hard to process while feeling like crap. ;'>

I thought the same but saw a good point against this idea.

Those are all games that were releasing early and already announced. Thus they had no choice but to put coverage on them. Meanwhile unannounced games aren’t known so they could afford to push back into on them. Which I think makes a lot of sense

 

[Shroob]

What do you get when you mix

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

My most anticipated movie, from my favorite film franchise ever, just got delayed till ****ing November.


Man that was like, the one movie that had ever been planned to be released around my Birthday too.

Yeah, No Time to Die isn't coming out till November now and I am BUMMED the **** out about it man...

My mom and I both stocked up at the grocery store on canned goods in case there's a quarantine. There won't be because I live in Colorado and nothing ever happens here. Serious, big news is when 2 police officers illegally shot a moose (really). But it never hurts to be prepared.

Anyone like the comedy series Veep? I finished marathoning the Big Bang series and need a new comedy to watch. I saw the first 2 episodes of Veep and they weren't funny but the series looks like it might become funny. Often the first season sucks so I'm going to fast forward to season 2.
