We stopped tilting discs to watch rainbow fans wheel round. But it isn't our fault, they started making discs that didn't have them and then wondered why we stopped buying.

Either you die a hero or live long enough to watch both beat 'em ups (Street Fighter 2) and shoot 'em ups (literally any game where you've got a gun) change meaning

They should put a new TRON soundtrack out every few years so we can all collectively pretend there’s a movie attached to it.

I couldn't decide which of those I thought was funnier so I posted them both like they're youtube thumbnails. You decide.

edit: turns out the guy in the story is a nasty horrible racist prick. Naturally the BBC did not feel this was important to disclose. But it absolutely is, he is not just "some guy" he's a racist media figure.

This is so peak. I also thought they were little guys with baseball bats lmfaooo

Dave Bulmer @demontomatodave.bsky.social · 19h

I already thought these looked like cool little guys before I saw what their name is

I think they're garlic grinders or something, but they affix to the table and you turn a handle to either rotate a drum in the front or grind whatever's in a sort of basin they've got - which means they all have wide bases, thin forward-leaning necks and robot heads with different kinds of mouth. The name for all of these is given as "SPONG"
