Wow, I have no idea where this influx of followers came from but thank you and welcome!

You’re probably going to see me talk a lot about Godzilla, Pokemon, Simpsons, superheroes, movies and other nonsense.

I sometimes get real but mostly keep it light/fun.

All I ask in return is that all of you…

I wasn’t expecting to wake up on a Monday morning and get teary eyed over a 4 minute video for a Digimon game but here we are.

It may have taken all season but I’ve finally gotten the new opening song to Peacemaker stuck in my head.

Made an 80’s cartoon/toy corner at my work desk without realizing it.
A duo shelf with Funko Pops from the Real Ghostbusters and the 80’s toy versions of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. On the top shelf (left to right) is Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael. On the bottom shelf (left to right) is Winston Zeddmore, Egon Spengler, Slimer, Ray Stanz and Peter Venkman.

Whoooa! My first ever shiny Ditto!

They do exist…
A screenshot from Pokemon Go. It shows a purple background and in the foreground a shiny Ditto (which is blue instead of a normal purple). The words above it read “Ditto was caught!”

If you haven’t yet, do yourself a favor and buy this remaster! You can see, hear and feel the love everyone involved gave this release.

What was the first superhero video game that you ever played?

It’s gotta be one of these two for sure. And both have incredible, INCREDIBLE soundtracks.
A screenshot from the 1989 arcade game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It shows all four turtles and Splinter overlooking the city. They notice a building on fire as one of them screams “Fire!!” The title screen from the 1989 Nintendo game “Batman: the Video Game.” It shows a black screen with the Batman movie logo and Michael Keaton’s Bat suit in all of its 8-bit glory.

And shoutout to Godzilla: Domination! As a young fan it was great to finally to have a fun Godzilla game on a handheld and the soundtrack to it was far more amazing then it needed to be.

Quote with your top GBA games.

This was TOUGH.

Sonic Advance 2 barely edged out the first one and Fire Red just barely beat Emerald for me.

Sorry, the Hawaii spam continues. But I couldn’t help but post this video of two kick ass fire handlers (dancers?) from the luau I attended.

Guess what dork wore a Godzilla themed Hawaiian shirt to a luau? This guy!

I remember my tour guide at Hilo mentioning there was a green sand and red sand beach on the big island as well but had no idea where they would be.

It may have been black sand turtle harbor but I don’t remember seeing any signs. My GPS was stating it was Richardson Ocean Park.

I’ve never really been a beach guy but views like these may convert me.
Some waves crashing into the rocks at Richardson Ocean Park near Hilo, Hawaii. Waves crashing into rocks and the black sand beach (!) at Richardson Ocean Park near Hilo, Hawaii.
