maybe there’s something to be said about the gap between base and super Sonic being so massive that the former is just not allowed factor whatsoever, but Flowey is that to the extreme

Is it normal to smoke an entire pack of cigarettes in a day cause I swear it’s the same people buying them every shift

Kinda got to thinking when Toriyama died, Bill’s gotta feel so grimly vindicated watching icons like him and Schulz die working.

Obligatory mention of r/okbuddyrosalyn, a subreddit based around C&H shitposts, and the only remaining Calvin subreddit after GoComics forced the main sub to shut down

what the fuck do you MEAN you can evolve eevee into jolteon in gen 1 by getting into a trainer battle, levelling eevee up, switching to growlithe, and finishing the battle with growlithe, because growlithe's pokemon index is the same as thunder stone's item index. WHAT. WHATTT

Imagine you’re Balloon Fighter and he pulls up. What do you do

You’d have people looking you dead in the eyes telling you that Barry is more iconic than Shovel Knight.

And they might be right! But that’s not the point: they’d be saying it with conviction despite never having thought that until an hour ago.

To be clear, I’m not talking about people who’d be defending it because they like Jetpack Joyride, I’m talking about the people who reflexively defend any idea because it’s Nintendo’s and not yours.

*he’s probably actually etc etc

Iron Joe @ironjoebro.bsky.social · 4h

I don’t guess I’d be upset myself, but you’d see people saying shit like

“Endless runners are an important and underrepresented genre, and mobile games are an underrepresented market”

“Him over Angry Birds makes sense, we have enough SEGA reps”

“I thought you guys wanted an indie rep?”

Earlier post about Barry Steakfries in Smash got me thinking, he probably actually the funniest character they could add from a pure discourse perspective. Not because he’d make people mad - anyone would - but because we’d be seeing BRAND new sentences from people defending it on principle.
