silence. "accounting for inflation" is for economists and/or perverts and I will do no such thing.

Maybe its cuz I’m not a gamer or whatever but i feel like if your primary concern is upsetting people who don’t like seeing the Klan get murdered - then maybe you should actually go ahead and make the game.

the page fizzles out in terms of reader submissions after some guy basically just explains the concept of an easter egg/cameo to these guys. it's hilarious.

a reader response, reading "Kevin Makes us Realize:I don't think it's such a big deal. Of course, when thinking about it, the word "wrong" just seems to convulse through my mind and veins, but at least we don't have to see it carved on death mountain or in some place where we would see it no matter how hard we tried not to (like pilotwings). Nintendo has been doing things like this for quite awhile, just not this irritating. But I never got to see it on my game. My brother found it, and I went to check it out but was blocked by soldiers that were set up after zelda zipped and a confrontation w/ ganondorf. It's way too out of the way to consider a threat, I think. Well, maybe, since those piece of shite paintings are sitting there mocking you from inside the castle, and we're wishing we could get in, hoping for a little quest64 nostalgia. btw, I know this is completely irrevelant to really anything but the talk of mario rpg, but in one of the towns you get the opportunity to fight a character that was way too obviously supposed to be put into FF2. The harp title theme used as a backround music, the big-bad-guy-fight for the fight music, the way he sizzled out and the "perhaps in another time we could have been mortal enemies" or something like that after you beat him. In a game that's not exactly big, not exactly real, something like this is accepted and even enjoyed by quite a few gamers, including FF fanatics. But we all agree that Zelda is a world of its own, big, and needing no help from other games to put entertainment into the hearts of us."

also, this is one of our favorite webpages of all time

from "The Odyssey of Hyrule", "MARIO IN A ZELDA GAME?", with images of the Mario paintings in Hyrule Castle and an image of Talon, Ingo, and Malon. the page body reads:

"Yes, everyone you're seeing right. They did it. They put Mario in a Zelda game. Let us take a moment to bash our skulls in with our controllers. Is this some kind of stupid joke. I checked this out in the game and oh its there all right. This kind of thing is inexcusable. Shame on you! Arrrgh!

This ruins the entire reason Zelda is so good, it has no connection whatsoever with that damn plumber and his madcap pals. But this? Why? The Video Gamer X is really insulted by this, but I suppose I can live with it. Really, it's just Mario."

various reader responses, including:
"Roshan Mahmoud Says: i agree with you complaetly thats ~P~A~T~H~E~T~I~C~ its zelda not mario there's already a damn mario game why the hell would they wanna put some fat plumer man in a kick ass game like this. IT'S INSULTING

Link767652@aol.com Says: What The Hell Were They Thinkin'? Mario? To Heck With Mario! I'm Fed Up With the idiot. He Should Be Dead. And in a serious game like zelda?"

a reader response, saying "WyteHawk@aol.com Says: I completely agree with you. It seems like putting a huge portrait of Benedict Arnold in the Lincoln Monument. Because Mario and Luigi have their own world, of only one building at all, and jumping into paintings, and heroic shouts of HYAHHHH! and MAMA-MIA! in their tiny girl voices. It's also like putting Max's head of Sam & Max into Shadows of the Empire. Except that I think Max is awesome and SotE is a worthless waste of time. So let me end off by saying a little something to whoever came up with that Mario/Zelda crossover idea! (((Editor's Note: The section edited out right here was just lengths and lengths of curses, threats, and protests))) And that's all I have to say about THAT!!!"

we think it's the sitemaster? anyways they said "Video Gamer X Adds: You know, I used to collect and read comic books when I was younger, and once they started getting inundated with crossovers, I stopped reading them because all my favorite heros were mixed up and in different timelines or other universes and it became too confusing to follow the story. Although this Mario in Zelda incident is rather small, I know that there is a game in production that is going to combine various Nintendo characters including Link and Ganondorf and others. Its going to be some kind of fighting game from what I've read. I call it a big mistake, because it is just wrong to rip-off a character and put him into another Video Game genre. Games with combined or crossed-over characters are designed with the sole intent of suppling the company with extra profits. The Comic Book companies tried this, and didn't fare too well, and if Video Game companies follow suit the whole uniqueness of Zelda, Hyrule, and the sovereignty of the adventure could vanish."

One of the Trump Administration's most openly fascist moments and CNN edits it out.

Tells you everything you need to know about a news network that has a firm policy against telling you everything you need to know.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 1d

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.
