Hey everyone. IBC's ex-partner here. Co-worker told me about the post... unfortunately the story is completely true, and worse than the post let's on... After 4 years, I left. I couldn't take being lied to, cheated on, and being used as her punching bag anymore. After all this I still love her, but I know it's for the best that I left. I left the 'receipts' at the bottom.

This doesn't look like an open relationship to me. Also why did TC say you were staying with your other partner if you were at your aunt's? Unless there's some sort of Game of Thrones type of deal going on.

This aside from the bold.

Yes, but Mayhem (AllState) is still the king .

That's a good choice, he might find a way to kill you otherwise. Errr... that's a different Dean Winters character.

Why does he have two non-expired passports?

Oops, you said "non-expired" anyway, the article still explains it:

A ridiculous amount of almonds! Apparently 23 almonds = 1 serving, so you're looking at roughly 26 servings. I'd go with the burger. Though do be mindful the same amount of water is required to produce both potential opponents.

A burger is smaller than 600 almonds.

Who do you think you'd be more likely to eat in a fight? 1 Burger or 600 Almonds?

Well hopefully they didn't take his birth certificate!

I still think Obama dropped the ball there, should've spent Trump's entire administration (or at least before Covid) demanding to see Trump's birth certificate. Alas, Obama surely had better things to do with his time.

Fair enough, personally I'd put it in my top 10. The N64 didn't have much.

It really didn't, at least if you didn't like Mario everything and THQ wrestling games! Not sure what my exact top 10 would look like off the top of my head, but probably both Zelda games, Mario 64, Mario Kart, F-ZeroX, No Mercy, Conker, Banjo, Goldeneye & Rogue Squadron. Harvest Moon 64, Space Station Silicon Valley, Perfect Dark and Blast Corps probably could be swapped onto that list as well.

I tried that probably 10 times, didn't work. That was the last Golden Banana I got. I even got it after the secret Banana Fairy one, on purpose, so I could unlock infinite crystals. I had to use the glitch where you start the race in Lanky's speedy mode.

I wonder how much of it is the controller, or maybe I just got lucky and attributed it to what I'd just read. No clue how I beat that rabbit all those years ago... other than a new-er controller!

Also the 101% thing is a call-back to Donkey Kong Country having 101% if you found all the hidden barrels, etc. I think DKC2 was 102%, DKC3 103%. Should just be glad this game wasn't 164%.

The majority leader is still a Democrat. The VP is also a Democrat, so wouldn't the Democrats technically have control here.

I don't think I've gone out of state on vacation since 2016, I hope I'm wrong but I can't remember going anywhere since. Unless you count a weekend thing or just time off work, in which case I've had a decent amount of that.

That's nice. I just know that 98% of one party would implement abortion laws that would have killed my mother, and 98% of the other party wouldn't.

The abortion issue really is unreal, it's as though the United States is doing everything it can to move backwards.

It'd be nice if more Democrats were in so nobody had to deal with this archaic horseshit.

Don't the Democrats control the Presidency, Senate and House? Unless you mean more control in places like... "the south" (we have to say this quietly so as not to upset anyone from that area.

Oh, and I also just remembered, you have to beat it TWICE. Honestly fuck whoever decided that was needed, easily one of the top 3 worst parts of the game, and much less forgivable since it's REQUIRED. All the other bad minigames can be ignored if you just want to finish the game.

This is another nice callout. Fortunately, I'm almost as old as Cranky, so this wasn't a huge problem for me. Still have those Donkey Kong classic skills, even today! I'd imagine most gamers would definitely be frustrated though, not a great requirement, let alone for one of the bananas in that stage.

This game is underrated, but I get a lot of the main complaints.

I am almost done on a replay of the game (22 years later) and I would say it is overrated, at least compared to what I thought back in 1999/2000. This game definitely is no longer in my top 10 N64 games.

Backtracking to pick up collectables with 5 different characters that can't pick up other character's collectables is incredibly tedious.

This... I could see backtracking with say Donkey and Diddy or maybe even 3 Kongs, but 5 was beyond excessive. Felt as though Rare was trying to extend the length of the game and took a big shortcut in that department.

A lot of the minigames are straight up unfair. Beaver Bother is so notoriously awful that I'm convinced it somehow was missed during testing. The beetle races are also miserable.

The worst part about the mini-games was how repetitive they were. Here beat this mini-game, ok now beat it 5 more times! I inexplicably had no problem with Beaver Bother. The first Scarab/Beetle race easily took me an hour though, second one probably 30 minutes. They're both so unforgiving.

The worst thing in the game however was a race with a rabbit. He gets a head start and it's actually impossible to beat him through skill alone, you need to be lucky and have him get caught on an obstacle. I found a YouTube video showing a glitch exploit where you no longer give him a head start, that was the only way I could win.

This isn't true! The key to beating the rabbit the second time is to just "tap" the jump button each time. You save a ton of time this way, as every moment Lanky is in the air he's much slower. I also read that the main issue with this race is the design of the N64 controller and older controllers becoming "loose" as one user put it. More info here: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/191702-donkey-kong-64/78760338

I followed the tips in that thread and couldn't believe how easily I won the next time I attempted the race.

Mostly everything else was great though. It feels way ahead of its time. The dynamic lighting is a very impressive technical feat for the N64.

So many 2D objects though, bad camera angles and I really didn't feel the game was graphically that much better than Banjo-Kazooie (1998), while Conker's Bad Fur Day (2001) was so much better.

IDK, maybe I'll play the game in another 20 years and see how I feel then. That is a really good 101% time btw, or at least for the first time getting 101%.

Because the level of suck of actual traitor Donald Trump is comparable to anyone else.

You didn't like a man that simultaneously embodied all the "best" qualities of Nixon, Harding and Jackson?

ReturnOfFa posted...

lmfao, Republicans objectively suck 1000x worse than the Democrats. look at reality instead of this 'both sides' horseshit.

That is an entirely subjective opinion. Personally think they both suck, but I find Democrats to be a lot more hypocritical.

Course the irony here is now that I think about it, I've never voted for a Republican Presidential candidate. You can thank George Bush for that!

MOOSHOO316 posted...

by the way does it make you guys feel better I voted for Obama when he ran?

Obviously not, because this has turned into LeftistFAQs and if you don't vote all blue in every election, regardless of how much both candidates suck, then you're scum.

Mediocre poster for sure

Me personally? Absolutely not. Could work for people that are asexual or maybe one partner is in a coma or something.

I don't think Biden is anything but a fucking moron, just like the guy before him.

By the looks of it, you'd fit the bill as President as well.

literally never said you did

but now i am saying it, and i would bet im right now

That's a losing bet. Although, I'd say you make about as much sense as Biden ever has.

you can't have Biden be this ultra mastermind one second and an incompetent crayon eater the next

you can't have it both ways, it just does not work that way

Literally NEVER said that. Not sure what the purpose of your post is other than to make you look like the crayon eater.

Holy ******* ****, Madam Speaker!

Much respect!

Biden - Dont do it!
China - You better not go!

Nancy - **** you both, I'm going

Comical that anyone would think Biden is telling Pelosi what to do and not the other way around.
