I always feel it right away, but I don't know how it is for others.

(The art in the middle's not mine, I just wanted to make something quick)

1) someone please compile a montage video of Nick building and launching spaceships set to this music 2) chris those are not the lyrics to rocketman

I wouldn't call it inherently sexual, but it's definitely pleasurable.

Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. There's not a lot of research about it because it's inherently difficult to do so. I would think it was fake if I didn't have it myself. Basically some people get a sort of relaxing sensation from certain sounds like gentle tapping, whispering, the sounds of a haircut, etc. I guess Reddit or something picked it up when a bunch of people realized they have it and now there's tons of videos and such specifically meant to cater to it. For example: It's like having tiny orgasms in your head and it is super nice.

My favourites are the ones with things like girls quietly reading children's books in Japanese or people silently unboxing Lego sets. As a result my suggested Youtube videos always look like really weird boring activities to people who don't get it. Seriously though if someone just made like a haircut simulator or something for this it would be a day one perch.

Remember the timed demos in Super Smash Bros. Brawl? Turns out some speedrunners took that as a challenge.

I'm super-susceptible to ASMR stuff, and now all of a sudden I seriously want to try this.

Hey, for anyone who wasn't sold on the look of the game, there's a short trailer on the 3DS eshop now, under Nintendo Direct. When you actually see it on the system itself, it looks fantastic. The design of the new Link basically looks exactly like the Zelda 1 concept art. It's great.

What makes Shinji masturbating over comatose Asuka actually kind of genius is that it's the logical endgame of him kissing her in her sleep in the series.

I'd be interested in seeing a game use the achievement system as a sort of skinner box, seeing if they can make the player do something they don't want to if it'll net them an achievement. I never played it, but I hear that Portal 2...

Argh; I'm writing an email back to my mom and have no idea what to say. I'm trying to keep it short and to the point, but there's so much that needs to be said sooner or later.

Some day I fully intend to play Four Swords Adventures the correct way: (except replace the purple Gamecube with a Wii so you can do component out with progressive scan)

I never finished Minish cap. The timed sequence near the end is just too hard for me. Otherwise I thought it was mostly enjoyable, though I also needed a walkthrough just to navigate sometimes. Otherwise I would wander for hours across that tiny little overworld trying to find the one specific thing that I had missed that would progress the story a little further.

Mari does seem like a fanfiction self-insert, and that's specifically why I like her. She's like Wesley Crusher if he were created as a joke. Asuka's too full of self-loathing to really drive the "fuck you, fanbase" message home. Speaking of Evangelion, I think Madoka may have actually beaten it to a hilarious merchandising tie-in. hee hee, pink taco

I've been up since three am and can't get to sleep I am so excited to be out of the closet you guys have no idea

As Jenm Frank once said, the strength of Smash Bros. is that you don't have to know how to play fighting games, you just have to know how to play the game that your character is in. If you play Metroid or Mario or Sonic or whatever, you already have a good handle on how that character is going to act. It plays and controls a lot more like a platformer than a fighting game. Every time I play Smash Bros. with someone, I insist on playing at least one round with the following rules: Initial damage set to 300% Knockback set to 2.0 Stock set to 99 Only item is the bumper, set to high appearance rate It's basically the best way to play. Every match takes at least fifteen minutes and there's virtually guaranteed to be at least one instance of somebody bouncing between two or three bumpers for a solid ten seconds before flying off the stage and everyone in the room falling over laughing because of it.

Outside of maybe Smash Bros., fighting games have gotten really intimidating. Every once in a while something like Skullgirls or Persona 4 Arena comes along and I get drawn in, but end up never actually playing the game because I know that my experience will consist entirely of playing a mediocre story mode and then immediately getting my butt handed to me if I play against anyone else.

So the Joker has a daughter now, and she's wearing his torn-off face. this is the dumbest fucking thing

He says I can use his house as a safe space to meet my mom and get the money. Everything's turnin' up Tegan!

Metroid Prime came out in 2002. It's more than a decade old. It still blows my mind that there's only a two year difference between Majora's Mask and Metroid Prime, considering how well the visuals of one have aged compared to the other. Also, prepare to be obsessed with scanning everything. The Prime trilogy are some of my favourite games and I made it my goal at one point to play through every major Metroid game in one year at one point. I did my last stretch of Prime 3 in something like a five-hour stretch. On my way to work, I saw a big tire track in the snow and my brain IMMEDIATELY said: "Magnetic Rail System. Press and Hold Z to activate Spider Ball" and realized I had already entered a crouch, attempting to become a morph ball. They are the best video games five out of five stars

what mari is the best The most frequent criticism I've ever heard of Evangelion is from people who think Shinji is a coward for not wanting to pilot Eva. I feel like Mari is a response to that, because she perfectly illustrates that anyone who actively wants to pilot Eva would have to be absolutely psychotic.

He says he's fine with it and wants to be supportive! YAAAAY!!
