they has been used a singular pronoun since the late 1300's though
Yeah, it predates singular “you”.
Hmm, wasn't aware
Ty Tatz 
Yeah using pronouns that originally were plural for singular is a very old and hardly unusual thing
i see they and them as singular and plural like "They are really good at volleyball" that can refer to a girl who plays vollyball and a whole team.
say "they are"
im not sure why this is an issue people bring up, these are grammar rules i learned as a child, they havent changed just because more people are using they/them as pronouns
"they are" was always the correct form, not "they is"
Aye
I mean I can see why it can be unintuitive, but the thing with languages is
Theyre not intuitive
This is the same language has three different words “they’re”, “their”, and “there” all pronounced the same way with totally different meanings. Nobody designed this mess.
No part of Leicestershire is pronounced the way it should be
And don't get me started on Worceistershire
Teaching a child to read will destroy any faith you had in the order of English.
As they say
“Mommy, why does the “e” do that?”
"English is a difficult language. But it can be understood through tough, thorough thought though"
“Mommy, why does it have a “k” there?”
ahh yes as Andrew Ray from Binging with Babish would say "name I can't pronounce sauce"
I mean tbh its easy to pronounce if you know how
If you only hear the name, sure.
we talking about wosototototo sauce?
yes 😂
It's just Wooster-sher basically
Good luck knowing that's how its pronounced though
I still don't understand "Laughter and Daughter"
the Quakers used "thee" as a pronoun in their everyday vernacular
British Sodium Sauce.
would love to see thee coming back as a pronoun
🧐
no
Different word roots
who wants to play guess the game?
✋
MINECRAFT
sure but please do it in #video-games 😉
ik im just asking here to gauge interest
isn't there like a town with a super long and absurd name?
would love to but playing D&D rn
maybe in a bit so we have more people?
Llanfair... etc. you mean?
not english, welsh: https://youtu.be/dCGkqUr1kbY
British weatherman Liam Dutton pronounced the 58-letter name of Welsh village Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch flawlessly.
Yeah but that one is originally a joke name iirc
And if you know welsh, its not that hard to figure out how to pronounce it
Frome though?
Even with 3 attempts I doubt you'd guess right
A Scottish air traffic controller (James McAvoy) with a heavy accent tries to guide a plane to a safe landing.

one of my favorite SNL skit
i'm here just say when.
Ahem
Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116
just for context https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_law_in_Sweden
i remember something in russia, maybe volus can confirm, that you could name your child sara but not sarah. or it's the other way around.
@hexed hollow It's actually "Rea." I'm so sorry.
Wait, I should grab the original message.
Yeah, that.
Honestly, I'm just a little curious he didn't do what I do and copy Alton Brown's pronunciation.
He's cited his influence several times before.
ahh, I always forget the specific spelling of his last name, so always default to "Ray"
the only way I can pronounce it with some sembnlence of correctness is
'woosh-ta-shear'
"wur-ster-shur" or "wer-ster-sher" Probably closer to the second.
english sauce
Man, that's part of what was nice about Japanese, kanji is a pain but at least the pronunciations don't fluctuate wildly.
Shout out to the time I asked if there was specific kanji for the term "kanji" and Sensei erased the English to replace it with the character.
Immediately had three classmates giving me yang. 
"Blood and darkness, you know you'd have to learn that one eventually, too!"
Oh my I love the feeling when you get the riff on the piano
you see this is why phonetic languages with shallow orthography are superior
opinions on fish sauce?
what kind?
there is one kind of fish sauce brother
fish sauce is tea color, very fishy smell (duh) with salty/umami taste.
never had it
tbh smell of the fish is the thing that keeps me from that kind of food since childhood
i can't understand somebody would like to ruin their meal with it on purpose
there are different mixes of fish sauce
but I love it its a normal part of our cuisine
not saying they shouldn't exist or something, just don't get it
its a preservative if that helps
I grew up using it and eating something with it
its salty
yea its a normal part of our food especially when it comes to our soup/sauce dishes
its a condiment that you use if the dish needs more salt for you
thanks, I hate it 
How a programmer makes a sandwich
i hated it, then i saw this and completely changed my point of view.
r/tihi is gonna love this
you turn it into a regular uncursed sammich and eat it
how do you even hold that
Fish sauce on its own is disgusting, but properly layered it wonderfully enhances flavors and can really expand the depth of a dish.
just squish it down together then turn it 90 degrees (i think) and swallow it whole like a tiktoker trying to get famous by swallowing hot dogs.
my reddit post got deleted
i hate reddit mods
sgg mods specifically are superior
Yeah, Reddit is pretty atrocious.
it gets worse by the day
i want to believe it's good, but it's only good if you're a lurker.
The internet is virtually (heh) infinite, no reason to ever tie yourself to a given site/community.
If it's bad, throw it.
Bruce Lee was right.
Or maybe that's Marie Kondo...
Post it to reddit wait an hour
tell me the result
hmm i want some salami now but i have none,
Supermarkets are usually open 7 days a week.
its 1.30 and i live in the middle of woods
Hey, same!
also like. out in rural middle of nowhere no place that sells salami is open at this hour
Except for the middle-of-the-woods part.
I live on top of a mountain!
psst, wanna wake 'im up?
except like walmart but im not driving half an hour out to walmart
Yeah, don't do that.
tree bark can server as salami for now
Sorry, I should have said "Wait a few hours, then check out your nearby supermakerts for salami."
the deer kept messing with our avocado sapling >:( but im p sure last weeks freeze killed it unfortunately
i don't like salami because as i child my grandpa made me eat salami with everything because of the fats and proteins made my brain all big. i overdosed to say the least.
I'm scared to click that spoiler tag
Sorry to the rest of you, but nothing makes me want to turn Super Saiyan and pop the whole planet like a grape more than people getting millions killed over pocket change.
I should try it again.
cruz trying to sneak out to cancun, getting shamed into coming back and then throwing his literal children under the bus
absolutely vile man
the ted kind?
Hang on, I gotta walk off the next few minutes, just hearing about him...
how do you think i feel
i don't know much about ted i only know about donald duck and dementia dan
Oh, Tatz, no, you live in Texas?

YOOO, I'M IN YOUR HAT.
spiderman pointing but out of depression and resignation
"There's a schpoon in my hat!"
tatz i'm glad you're safe after the snow
luckily im an hr out from the coast and we warmed up pretty quick
I work with a couple of high schoolers who are abolutely products of their environment and I had to break the news to them today about how terribly Texas is gerrymandered.
me too, couldn't imagine how the snow messed up your whole life in there
(referring to will's message)
gerrymandered? i feel offended...?
Gotta say, if there's a legislative evil above all else in America it's partisan groups drawing electoral districts.
dude i was behind a truck with a t* 2024 sticker the other day, i hate this state
clenches fist
GERRY, Stop mandering will you?
Okay, here's the deal.
You and I will sync up our power levels, perform the Fusion Dance, and then take over the world.
i'm okay with that.
UBI and free Supergiant Games games for everyone.
SGG will of course be provided for.

i'm sure many of you know someone who lives in texas but i have a buddy who lives there and the things she told me during that period were disheartening. she wasn't even terribly affected!
i'm keeping that
like not to be That Person but boy am I tired of people pretending that all southerners are just stupid and undeserving of care! you know? like those posts being like 'rah rah stupid southerners xD this is what you get when you're a hick'
Yeah, there's a lot of issues with assuming monoliths of diverse groups.
that's not the US-exclusive issue tbh
Someone put their 5 year old to bed and the next morning they died of hypothermia. Honestly this texas situation is showing a bunch of terrible parents. when it's -15 you should be cuddling all your children in your bed.
absolutely not, no. like the assumptions they make about where you live, volus! that stuff is also stinky
Absolutely, but we were definitely the biggest example of what can go wrong if you don't have the right leaders in the right place.
I'm a southerner. don't know if you've noticed my frequent use of "y'all"
i won't get into those stereotypes but the bottom line is that care shouldn't be such an exclusive thing
its almost like the south suffers from voter disenfranchisement and being gerrymandered to hell and back. most of the large cities frequently vote blue lmao
Unless your Austin and San Antonio, and boy that steams my beans.
yeah that's something noticeable about alaska too
Okay, genuinely taking a step away for a minute.
WHAT THE FFFFFFFF---- proxyword IS GERRYMANDERING?
That district is too much.
google is your friend, friend https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrymandering
Gerrymandering () is a practice intended to establish an unfair political advantage for a particular party or group by manipulating district boundaries, which is most commonly used in first-past-the-post electoral systems.
Two principal tactics are used in gerrymandering: "cracking" (i.e. diluting the voting power of the opposing party's support...
i'm berry now
Look up Texas congressional districts.

berrymandering
gasps
Seriously, there's an 80 mile stretch of barren wasteland that links two of the most blue cities in Texas specifically to break the possibility of turning those cities blue.
fffffffff----- you. you. you. you think you're funny...
will is funny
i sayeth so
Too bad Biden is a DINO and we're about to see a return to the W years more than anything else (I'm just barely too young to remember Clinton).
ahhh mods are always right!!!
berrymandering aka planting a mulberry tree next to your neighbour's fence and watching reddit tree law unfold irl
he's dead tommorrow. let's be honest.
that's not a threat
btw
that sounds like a threat
it's not
Harris is almost worse.
She was brought along just to say a woman is vice-president.
Also a DINO!
she's like 50 right?
I haven't spent that much time reading up on her.
good idea
werent you taking a walk
Saw that she was a cop (gross) with lots of borderline regressive policies (grosser) and then bit my tongue and pinched my nose and voted for them against Trump.
More like walking around my house and then I saw more messages and ADHD kicked in.
lmao relatable
let's be honest. democrats and republicans lately have been ehhhhhhhhhhhhh
Most of them, yes.
Like, 10% because she's gorgeous and I have a crush on her, but AOC has actually been pushing progressive policies that would help Americans.
Oh, easy.
Vote for whoever funds public education.
I vote for whoever lowers taxes
that's two major issues with politics, most of them are there since forever, and nobody deserves much preference
That's a bad idea, honestly.
Because if you did that in 2016, your taxes were cut in early 2017!
Like Murray Goldberg said: "It's only about the taxes, kids are smart enough to not do drugs and crap."
And now they're scheduled to go up again and past what they were during the Obama administration unless you make more than $75k per year.
they all say they will lower taxes and raise salaries, and there we still are
What are we talking about?
I make well under $30k, so now my tax burden, which I am only barely shouldering right now, is going to get worse while all the Americans who can handle it will be fine.
I see taxes
How broken America is.
No, they're going up because democrats.
We getting political tonight huh
no it was literally something the last administration instated
It was scheduled to go up in 2021.
biden literally said the first thing he would do was raise taxes
On the Americans who can't handle it, like me, or the wealthy ones, who can?
Because Trump specifically made it so I would have to pay more.
I ❤️ you, Schpoony~
Dang.
Wow 
I said a bad word, oops.
I saw~
Jail worthy offense,
do you want your message back
Can you like, copy it so I can remove the offending word?
My burden might go up under Biden, but not to the same extent and unless he just completely caves to the super rich (which he might, [redacted] that he is), theirs will go up as well and America as a whole gets better.
Fingerguns away
Anyway, 5k out of my 25k-ish take-home every year could possibly break me.
25 billion out of Bezo's 100 billion? He doesn't even feel it.
jUsT gEt A bEtTeR jOb LoL
Oh, Dad! I didn't know you got a Discord! What are you doing up 4 hours later than normal?
math is a lot. i sometimes try to figure out what i'd even do with a singular billion, and my brain can't quite compile all of what i'd want to do
I may just completely open up and start screaming at him next time he gives me that drivel.
Well, son or daughter i'm not sure, i need to go to my far superior job early. we're discussing my raise.
would this be a great time to mention how university tuitions went up during the pandemic when students were doing online learning, what the whole hell
"OH, SO WHO'S GONNA MAKE YOUR [REDACTED] BURGER IF EVERYONE JUST TAKES A BETTER JOB?"
American billionaires gained record amounts of wealth during the pandemic.
Kelly Loefler committed insider trading and she got nothing.
She got to a freaking run-off after that.
yup and all the internet weirdos come out in droves to defend billionaires rights to make obscene amounts of money on our suffering
Like I said, Super Saiyan, fly up to LEO, ki blast straight to ground.
Tell me about it. I got charged for gym and fitness stuff even though I can't go on campus
I like a lot of you, but it's a necessary loss so we don't spread to the rest of the cosmos and screw up literally the entire universe.
i dont know if ill ever financially be stable enough to move back out again at this rate 
yeah that also confounds me. having done online study in high school, it absolutely doesn't warrant a cost increase and online unis prior to the pandemic even advertised the fact that they cost less than brick and mortar unis
truly rofl
if you fit 20 children into a 400 sq foot home you can pay no little taxes! Life hack!
mayhaps a bit unethical
Good correction, Berry. The only way you can pay no taxes is if you're already extremely wealthy and you spend millions on lawyers who cheat the system for you and poIH/;IOTKzNGIE,JbFV <
Okay, BRB.
I finally hit critical mass. 
ofc, berry
where do I find 20 children tho?
should i spend my money? so i'm not rich
The same orphanage you arson-ified back then.
that was dark.
too dark?


I'm fine with it
Nah, too much of a non sequitur to really punch.

Hey, I was just watching some Community videos.

What that Mexican food that starts with ch-?
Might have to be more specific than that. Sweet? Savory? What's in it?
It's churro but thanks.
Somehow in my head it went churritos but I got it right finally.
is it spicy? it sounds spicy
Opposite, it's a sweet desert.
Basically sugary bread.
So yesterday I was bored and scrolling through lists of manga/manhua and seeing if any looked interesting.
I see one series about a guy and some ghost girl that haunts his dorm. I go in with extremely low expectations but figure it could kill some time.
Then the protagonist somehow ends up possessing the ghost

crab or monke
what you're saying is monkey or ape. if it has a tail it's a monke if it doesn't it's an ape.
monke for the win
monke 1 million percent

I'd had that fact down for a minute, but this really reinforced it.
I said mustard in a different discord and I got banned because some stupid mod thought i was making fun of autistic people. MUSTARD IS A CONDIMENT. the suffix -tard doesn't make everything offensive.
we need more context, did you say "I love mustard"?
we were discussing what should and shouldn't go on hot dogs
cause some weiner elitists think only mustard goes on a hot dog.
I said something along the lines "Mustard is the worst thing on this planet."
but but that's like the right thing to do
who knew doggos can be wrong
lmao
wdym
putting mustard on hot dog is the way to eat one though
maybe if you don't have chilli
true i did forget about chili
Have you tried weiner dog with baked beans?
it's really good.
but it's barbeque sauce bean
I don't put baked beans on hotdogs, they ruin the bread for me
i'm from the south baked beans are our shidooshka
it does make it a little soggy
holy yes that's good stuff
i just love hot dogs
i actually had burgers with onion buns earlier today.
I absolutely adore a good hamburger
Double patty with caramelized onion, hell with a tiny amount of honey for taste
Ketchup and mayo
Hmmmm
blueberry mayo... 😋
Also, tuna melt
never heard of it
there are two burger joints near my house, one put an egg on their burger
odd choice
but it works
mcdonalds?
nope
it's local owned
but yea I guess mcdonalds do the same
with their mcmuffin
Yeah they do with bacon too. It's odd creation that is eh
there's a hot dog stand 2 blocks down and it is heavenly. and like 75 cents per dog
grab 2 and walk back home
i'm kinda famous with the 2 people that own it
damn
there are only so much hot dog joints here
and some of them are not good
I have to make my own to get a decent one
I'd never hang out there, cause I'd get hungry

how can you be intimidating online?
reading between the lines of what someone said, my best guess
strange
different people interpret things differently
well you do you
yep
my pfp prevents me from being intimidating 
me too

sometimes you just wanna say "hi" in passing ^.^
hi
also that, Like I have
I suppose. Just to be clear, I don't mind it.
I just hope whoever saying Hi stays long enough to see others saying Hi back.
There was this one time where I just said hi in a friend's server and everyone spammed hi
It was fun

what is the plural of possum, "possi," "possy," or "possums?"
Possums

why did we listen to them?
That's rough, buddy.
Sriracha for breakfast. Man of culture I see.
yall have breakfast? dang
i just eat my dinner for breakfast
i dont eat actual meals til closer to noon or after because eating too early in the morning only makes me more sluggish rofl so i have a light snack to hold me over, if anything
im the exact opposite, not having breakfast makes me sluggish lol
just suck your thumb. it tastes just as good!
I actually need food to keep myself awake in the morning. Coffee don’t help me stay awake.
I have to eat breakfast. Working hazard and all that jazz.
coffee and energy drinks actively make me sleepy :D
they give me too much energy.
then i have to sleep it off
or just pass out because my heart is beating so fast
||actually happened||
yes well energy drinks are pretty unhealthy all around, how often you indulge them matters too
Lol I think the caffeine doesn’t digest into my body well. Maybe that’s why it doesn’t do much for me. XD
I never drank any energy drink. Some of the drinks have questionable contents.
i like coffee but i can only really drink it if im prepared to immediately lay down for a bit, esp when i have some strong espresso shots i indulge like twice a year or so lmao the sleepiness punches me in the face three sips in
ive really only done energy drinks at the tail end of overnight jobs, just to make sure i can feel tired out enough to sleep by the time i get home
tea gud
tea but with sugar
Same here. I don’t add sugar in my tea. The only tea I don’t mind being sweet is bubble tea.
I slept from 10 am to 2 pm today, my brain is going nuts

alright so who wants to invest in dogecoin with me?
I looked at the Dogecoin subreddit and it reeks pump and dump to me.
So I'll pass. I also don't know much about crypto so there is that, too.
I never got stuff like bitcoin
truthfully all crypto is negative since it is soooo destructive to the environment
speaking of destructive
I was confused when I saw this at first
cyptocurrency is so weird. they just convinced a bunch of people that a bit of computer code had value then it started selling for 50k
ever since mid 2017, the world of crypto have never been the same
after a google search it sounds like cryptoart is art made from the code that is crypto?
and like
i don't think we're on the same page.
it's like if people pay a huge amounts of irl arts, but instead of you having it in your house, you get a rare version of it online
probs not, it was a very quick google search
Pretty sure its just regular artwork but associated with a token for the sake of artificial scarcity
^^^
I read somewhere that crypto mining spent more electricity last year than the nation of Argentina
possibly Reddit
And Cryptocurrency is less weird when you consider that that is how currency as a whole works
Currency has value only because we agree that it does
Its entirely arbitrary
Fiat money, it's also called.
The value is simply what you deem it is.
a value that we agreed on
they have to have for example 15 dollars of gold
As in, what you and the person who you are doing business with agree upon.
now there is 15 dollars
And why does gold have value?
anne marie
bitcoin is under that concept
Yeah I was about to say, USD is not backed by gold, not since forever.
it was just an exmaple
example*
like if everyone withdrew their whole bank account from the banks, the banks couldnt give everyone their money cause in truth there is no value. It is just number that we say work that way
what you are saying is
most money is a number on an atm~~ atm~~ at the moment
likely but you wont convince him nor will he truely have anything to give
since he's at that level of rich where the imaginary numbers mean even less
what if rich people gave at least 30% of their equity to buy things that actually help.
like money is just so dumb honestly, go back to the trade and barter days i say
that's also inefficient though. as most people want more than what they gave. there will still be a societal discrepancy in equity
just go full soviet bro, no one has anything.
i an't turning into a commie
i already am
A clip from Sam O'Nella Academy's Banana Republics video

in reality the real answer of what it should be is that good and services people need to survive food, housing, healthcare,electricity,clothing shouldn't be bought nor sold it should be given to people so they live while extra stuff like stuff to decorate your home should be the stuff bought
yeah they should get paid
what would you buy?
oh cryptocurrency initially became popular because it is untrackable iirc
so its really good if you're buying something sketchy
what do you buy now-a-days that you dont need to live
video games is an example that comes to mind
nah we need currency to have order
trade is still legal
but we need something that EVERY people can agree the standard value of every object
I have a bit of social anxiety so I hope we don't go back to bartering. I can't haggle xD
otherwise it would cause a lot of dispute and unregulated prices
standard value is a good point and lines up with my thought on things necessary for life being free
Also Attack on Titan new ep @simple owl
yup
i started watching aot today actually
I just watched it yesterday
ah aot talk, im out lol
with modern trading system idk how to reach standard value for everything
why can't kam or peach yell at you?
or wight
when someone buys for 30k and sells for 50k
heh
also isn't it ironic
how we have a huge reactor million times larger than earth pumping lots of energy into the void
but we have to burn chunks of a rock we're living on to get some energy
love that description of the sun
don't quote me on that
and there's currently research on making a dyson sphere
im pretty sure they arent expensive but also dont quote me on that
is that a giant vacuum cleaner
dyson? like the vacuum?
its the idea of making a generator that will orbit/cover the sun
A Dyson sphere is a hypothetical megastructure that completely encompasses a star and captures a large percentage of its power output. The concept is a thought experiment that attempts to explain how a spacefaring civilization would meet its energy requirements once those requirements exceed what can be generated from the home planet's resources...
its theoretically possible
yes it is
the fundamental concept is possible
we simply do not have the materials
oh look at that beauty!
we'd have to deconstruct mars to build that
Theoretically if you can get somucn matter somewhete
dont listen to the haters miss dyson sphere! work it!
there are thousands of asteroids out there
And enough time and will
but yea with our current civilization its impossible to build
well there's a will right here
get to it will
tbh the dyson sphere reminds me of a biblical angel
build the duson spere
hundreds of years made pyramids possible with thousands of slaves
🔧 🔨 🛠️
robot slaves this time im guessing
that was aliens, sTuPiD.
fair point. History Channel said so
dont get me started on aliens building stuff lmao
what if we can hire aliens for building stuff
aLieNS mAde gRAss DRawInGs
like the racism and colonialism just bleh
they sure have means of space travel better than ours, they can finish the sphere much quicker
that was the werecow, sTuPiD.
oh yea DUMB ME
I heard werecow and my mind directly went to dont starve
then I remembered those are werepigs

If humans wa...
but here's a video of one of my favorite youtubers who's name I can't pronounce
in fact, i think, even one single earth-sized panel can feed so many cryptofarms countries that it won't be nessesary to build that much
but that would be a great way to hide the system from aliens
just make the people generate energy themselves using the exercise bike
solving humanity's lack of exercise and shortage of power
100 IQ move
some of our satirists in the last century suggested some ideas like that
like, in theatres people applaud for no reason, let them instead clap the small dynamos
someone in our school made a research on making mats that can convert kinetic energy to electrical energy
so we had a mat on our pedestrian crossing for a while to test it out though idk what happened to it since
all the school researches either gets forgotten or used later suggested by the institute with another names on them, usually of the major academics
sadly
F
ok, i gotta hit the hay nice talking to y'all about cryptocurrency and how society has been flawed from the start.
np, gn
niiight
right now, im in a voice chat that's covered by anime pfps
like the good kind or the bad kind?
aot and onepiece
im a normie i only watch aot :D
aot is fine. I seen like one ep and thought it was aight
||keijo|| is definitely the best anime
but a really good anime that I recommend that's funny as hell is zombieland saga
im thinking of watching akudama drive, cuz they got the danganronpa feel to it
honk not to be that person but if you like cyberpunk and haven't watched psycho-pass yet, pls do
well well well, love me some recommendations
it restored my interest in anime and now I'm supposed to be watching devilman crybaby but am putting it off for the moment in favor of cobra kai
anyway that's all i'll say here bc off topic in off topic
Jujutsu Kaisen and Beastars S2 are my fav this season
Beastars gave me nightmares >:D
an old one, but Durarara is great
I wanna watch beastars so bad
the philippines recently came out with an adult furry animated film and i'm so happy 
also an old one, "C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control" is criminally underrated
Yea the story itself wasn't really good though but the animation is really good
Hinamatsuri is also good
I should watch that again
I dropped it midway
to wait till end
and forgot about it 
not surprised tbh. from the trailer I was expecting quality animation with just a side of story
poland
cohahaoff
do you guys know how to turn on static IP?
do you need to for port forwarding?
first off, test the ip that you want to put by opening cmd and pinging it
if it pings and gives you packets this means that it's already used
how do i ping the ip?
type ping followed with the ip address that you want
huh, change numbers until the ip refuses to ping
then you can make it as your static ip
i’ll update when i’ve found one
cool
On the hunt for my switch Lite
oooo what color
The Pokémon one
nice
I’m also missing my N3ds, but that ones been lost for 2-4 years now
It’ll show up one day I’m sure
Most my things do
if the switch light came out at the time I was getting a switch I would've gotten the light
mine broke 
how tho, did you move or something?
I have both a switch & a lite
Yes
ah
My stuff is in boxes
And I went to a kind of boarding school before which is when my N3ds got lost in a box somewhere 
wack asf
pretty sure it'll show up in one of those boxes then!
I wanted to find my lite so I could know where it is for when the physical Hades arrives by the end of the month (cuz shipping)
Hope so!
I remember packing it away.. but not where
I got the lite, kinda regret not buying a full Switch instead
ah
then the price skyrocketed a month or so after, you know cause the world called timeout
ok proxy
Not just talking the actual switch aspect either w the joy cons
what did it jump too?
But some other stuff
err like 1.5x normal or so
the lite jumped almost 2x retail price
I was just saying so because I rarely ever use my switch docked
crazy times
Same, but the lite doesn’t give the full switch experience
I got both - I know 
yeah
I just need my joycons fixed 
I got the lite cuz I couldn’t resist the Pokémon version
dont get me wrong though, the lite is still a great portable console
I was on the fence w the turquoise
they aren't drifting or anything
But Pokemon
the right one just keeps sliding
I feel so old I hate it here lol
I'm losing interest in pokemon
I got the pokemon as well, I dont even play pokemon 
Pokémon is 2-3 months younger then me 
I started losing interest at sword and shield
I can’t wait for the new games 
like halfway through the game
Ah, the easy games
Try some of the older ones 
and also lets go which I got for dumb reasons
The even easier easy game!
god lets go was so boring
Get some old games!
I only bought it because I was so deseperate to play pokemon
You have to work in those 
I already have
I remember playing Pokémon & I couldn’t even read anything
Or understand anything they wanted me to do in the games
Especially during the German game I got - sapphire
I've played Black 2, X, soul silver, omega ruby, and sun
thats all I can remember playing
mmmm
Not always when they came out (looking at you firered)
I've also played mystery dungeon
Same
only the gen 6 one
Sometimes fun sometimes not
yeah
The ranger games were fun
I feel the same way
Dash was a struggle
I wish I had ranger
I have 3 ranger games
Ranger, shadows of almia & guardian signs
at all
but its the closest thing to playing the actual gen 4 games which I never have
same I just don't like that being the main artstyle
like I feel like it regressed so poorly
Hope we get some platinum stuff in the remakes at some point 🥺
like it went from gen 6 style to gen 7 to gen 8 to lets go to this
It’s for nostalgia I guess, and to be more like links awakening 
thats true
but I'm still prob gonna get get it
It looked just like a rounded 3D ish version of the old games
damn I'm not gonna have any money this year lmao
I was so happy watching the trailer
but the 3ds version was less cartoonish
I heard the intro & just started freaking out 
Ye, that’s where the rounded 3Dish aspect comes in
there are so many things coming out what do I do 
That looks like links awakening
Same
and the other 3ds stuffs
I wanted miitopia on the 3ds so bad like I played that demo so much lol
You know when they revealed the remakes in the presents?
but I could not get it
The ds with the intro playing
?
I knew the second it started it was d/p 
I’ve played them so many times
That intro is just great
There’s so many games coming out now


RIGHT!!
in the end
i tried contacting xfinity
since it should be easier to just open the port
but nO
IT Was an hour long call to know
we doNt really know what to do
lolol
:(
