Retro gaming, media analysis and dry wit. Or at least half-wit.
Just looked it up. Backwards long jump up the infinite stairs to bypass needing all those stars.

How do people find this stuff?

I finished Mario 64 about a year back, and had no idea this was a thing

This seems unlikely, but I suppose I can't think of any examples

Be thankful for small mercies

That...does not look good.

Unless it's some strange "it's all in their imagination" take.

I played through this whole series a while back and had no idea.

Q - which is your favourite of the series?

Not even net zero could stop him

Sounds familiar...

Guess I'll add that to the list!

I've found it strange that the world of Zork hasn't had much staying power in the popular consciousness. Apart from Grue's I suppose

I finished the Zork series a little while ago. Then moved on to Return to Zork and was hugely disappointed

Sorry senate not parliament, you know what I mean
November 25, 2025 at 9:56 AM
Genuine Q - should parliament have just ignored her? She was after the reaction. I assume it was offensive, and it was certainly intended to be. But if it had just been ignored it would have at least sent the message "you can (legitimately) wear a burqa and be an MP, it's not a problem"

Financial security solves problems?? But our society isn't set up for that!

Never let the pursuit of perfection prevent improvement

Not THE "names not really Joyce"???

Side note - I would absolutely watch "LOTR in a Japanese setting"

The only old exception I've seen to this is "cuckold".
