Topic | How good is Dragon Quest XI? |
kukukupo 01/13/21 8:42:29 AM #22 | Compared to modern games, it is very good. Some of the characters are very annoying, IMO. Compared to classic RPGs it doesn't compare. I'd still take DQ III, IV, VIII, & IX ahead of it. |
Topic | Were karate gangs a problem in your school? |
kukukupo 01/12/21 10:21:06 AM #20 | We had a bad gang problem. Usually the karate guys were the good guys. Here you can see a video of a classmate of mine saving the head cheerleader: https://i.imgur.com/EYOqcd0.mp4 |

kukukupo 01/10/21 11:12:07 AM #39 | Meh, I understand some people can't handle opposing opinions, but the Block button is very useful. I don't think I would be willing to click through the garbage on this site without some accounts like FullThrottle or mrduckbear blocked. |

kukukupo 01/06/21 4:22:49 PM #91 | Nightwish posted... Look on the bright side, this is the death of the MAGA nation. No republican who ever wants to win another election will do anything but condemn this. Also this kills ANY chance of Trump hitching his wagon to the Republican party in 2024 You would think. But, there were a record number of voters in the last election, and it was still close. |
Topic | Right wing rioters storm Capitol in an attempt to stop Biden certification |
kukukupo 01/06/21 3:18:15 PM #44 | You can protest all you want, once you start destroying public property and present a real threat to other's lives, you lose all status as a protester. They are no longer protesting, they are rioting. This is no different than those who burnt down the Police Station. |
Topic | Degree: Online or brick and mortar |
kukukupo 01/05/21 6:44:25 AM #11 | Both. Find a brick and mortar that offers online courses. |
Topic | The 'Complete Unity Game Developer Bundle' is on sale for $39 |
kukukupo 01/05/21 6:43:12 AM #3 | The price is for tutorials/classes. Most of the websites that do classes are having huge sales this year - udemy is doing the same. |
Topic | imagine not being a 90s kid |
kukukupo 01/04/21 7:05:40 PM #29 | Don't have to imagine it. |
Topic | Have you ever walked off of a job? |
kukukupo 01/04/21 11:17:48 AM #27 | EvilMegas posted... I was a DC elementary schoolteacher for literally one month. I hear you. I'm actually thinking of going back to teaching, but I keep remembering things like this. The pay vs crap you have to put up with really isn't worth it. The only reason I'm considering going back is because it doesn't require traveling and I want my summers off. |
Topic | Have you ever walked off of a job? |
kukukupo 01/04/21 9:45:40 AM #23 | Yep. It was only a pizza-maker job, though and I had a new job the next day. |
Topic | Why does miley cirus tongue look like that |
kukukupo 01/03/21 8:42:55 AM #18 | which one is miley circus? |
Topic | Now that 2020 is over, what are your top 10 games of the last decade? |
kukukupo 01/01/21 4:09:06 PM #17 | I can't come up with 10. I suppose I could just list all of the games that released in that time period that I've played - and I'd only be a few games over my list. I thought about cheating and listing NES/SNES games that released on the NES/SNES mini since I've probably played those more than any other games that have released in that time period. Here is what I could come up with: Octopath Traveler Dragon Quest XI Minecraft Dungeons Disgaea 4 Disgaea 5 Disgaea 1 Complete Animal Crossing |
Topic | What were your favorite albums of 2020? |
kukukupo 12/31/20 8:39:10 PM #37 | MrMelodramatic posted... boomer opinion, factually wrong meh, if you want to think so. Musicians back in the day were generally WAY more talented (I'm not talking about pop artists who were about the same) |
Topic | What were your favorite albums of 2020? |
kukukupo 12/31/20 4:49:14 PM #35 | I haven't listed to a 'new' album since 2016 or so - and even then it was ONE new album. Most new stuff is trash. I actually listen to older and older stuff (currently mostly 50's & 60's stuff) |
Topic | PotD's Game of the Year |
kukukupo 12/31/20 8:03:38 AM #39 | Animal Crossing, no contest. |
Topic | How many paid days off do you get a year between vacation and holiday? |
kukukupo 12/29/20 8:20:52 PM #25 | Time off is definitely a benefit that isn't taken into account by many who change jobs. I make good money right now, but I'm in a business that doesn't allow for much time off. I've asked them to stop giving me raises and just give me more time off, but they won't do it. I can vouch for the university / school schedule. When you teach they pay seems low because you are really only working 9 of the 12 months in a year. You can stretch your paycheck over the whole year or just not get paid in the summer. In the past, the benefits were really good as well (they aren't anymore). In addition, you usually get a boat load of sick days during the school year. As far as time off goes, you can't beat teaching as a career option. |
Topic | Started up Dragon Quest 11 |
kukukupo 12/28/20 1:38:03 PM #35 | Black_Crusher posted... It's fun but as the others said it's way too long and feels longer since the pacing is poor. Yep. DQ3 is still the best in the series, IMO. 9 is the next best. |
Topic | The Mandalorian... |
kukukupo 12/27/20 6:26:00 PM #8 | Wasn't impressed at all. The some of the first season was ok. By the second season, I was skipping large sections of the show because I didn't care about any of the characters. I thought having Boba in the show was super lame. I tried giving Star Wars another chance, but it sucks. There are only three Star Wars movies, and I'm ok with that. |
Topic | Started up Dragon Quest 11 |
kukukupo 12/27/20 7:27:31 AM #5 | The game is good, but long. Some of the characters are really annoying. The battle system is great, as always. 2D mode is the best way to play the game. |
Topic | Frosted sugar cookies are bottom tier cookies. |
kukukupo 12/27/20 7:25:40 AM #10 | I'd rather have the sugar cookies. |
Topic | I got my daughter one of those fancy binaural microphones for Christmas... |
kukukupo 12/26/20 10:48:15 AM #27 | Between the stripper pole and the phone sex line, I'd prefer my daughter to be on the phone. |
Topic | Octopath Traveler is 50% off and I have a $35 gift card |
kukukupo 12/26/20 10:45:38 AM #5 | Worth every penny. Do it. |
Topic | Top 5 Christmas movies? Worst Christmas movie? |
kukukupo 12/25/20 6:06:12 PM #34 | Worst Christmas movie is that new Grinch animated one where they turned the music in to a rap song. My kind loves it and it is just awful. |
Topic | Are any of you watching WW84 right now? |
kukukupo 12/25/20 3:31:47 PM #6 | Zero interest. |
Topic | Top 5 Christmas movies? Worst Christmas movie? |
kukukupo 12/24/20 8:44:36 PM #2 | I agree with everything on your list, but replace # 4 with Scrooged. |
Topic | Watching Die Hard, for the first time. |
kukukupo 12/24/20 10:36:20 AM #26 | Gremlins is a must as well. Home alone, too. |
Topic | as your president, i vow to make putting film grain effects illegal as fuck |
kukukupo 12/24/20 10:32:02 AM #17 | Can't disagree more. Games like Cuphead have graphics that look better than any other games in the last 30 years or so. |
Topic | How would you feel if you found out everyone else here was just 1 person's alts |
kukukupo 12/19/20 8:57:32 PM #6 | I would be unsurprised. |
Topic | Covid vaccine |
kukukupo 12/19/20 8:46:44 PM #1 | I wasn't allowed to say anything until today, but it's now okay for me to share that I volunteered for the Covid-19 vaccine trial in partnership with Pfizer. It's the one that has been developed in Russia. I received my first dose last Tuesday, and I wanted to let you all know that it's completely safe, with o side effects whatsoeve, and that I feelsh , |
Topic | Should seatbelts be mandatory? |
kukukupo 12/18/20 4:47:39 PM #2 | It used to be a much bigger deal. I knew people who were very anti-seatbelt (some that still are). |
Topic | Do you use noise cancelling headphones? |
kukukupo 12/16/20 8:05:04 PM #2 | Yep. Bose - can't recall the model #, but it is bluetooth or wired. Can't live without them. |
Topic | What are your popular opinions? |
kukukupo 12/15/20 7:59:19 PM #11 | Chrono Trigger is the greatest RPG of all time. The Beatles were a great group. Breaking Bad was one of the greatest TV shows ever made. |
Topic | My wife already wants another baby |
kukukupo 12/15/20 6:12:14 AM #36 | chandlermbing posted... Our baby is 9 months and it's been a mixed blessing to be sure. Not sure my wife and I could face having another, but we know it might be a bit easier in the longer term. As an aside, how have new parents had their hobbies affected. I had hoped to still have some time (few hrs a week) but so far I havent touched my ps4 for a gamevin 9 months It's gone for a few years, unfortunately. Before I had my kids, I worked a day job that was tolerable so I could have a side-hustle that was enjoyable. As soon as I had kids, I had no time for the side-hustle so I got a new, more interesting job. I've really become a work-o-holic now, but I found there wasn't time with the kiddos - only when you are away from them. All your at-home time is their time now. On the bright side, my oldest kid is now really into minecraft dungeons and kirby all star allies - so it gets more enjoyable. |
Topic | My wife already wants another baby |
kukukupo 12/14/20 8:21:07 PM #30 | Meh. Having two close together means they can keep each other company (if they get along). Also, more than one means they wont' be left completely alone when you pass on (assuming your kids live longer than you). |
Topic | Is ' The Nightmare before Christmas' a Christmas or Halloween movie |
kukukupo 12/14/20 8:18:33 PM #3 | It's the best of both! You can play it from Oct31-Dec25 and it doesn't matter. |
Topic | Do you miss Arcades? |
kukukupo 12/12/20 6:40:45 PM #15 | Not really. I mean, I have fond memories, but I also own about 10 arcade games so I don't miss them. |
Topic | Do you think there's any difference in sound between wireless and wired |
kukukupo 12/09/20 10:24:14 AM #15 | There is a difference, IMO. I have the Bose wireless headphones that allow you to plug it in. There is no latency, and much better clarity/volume when plugged in. Wireless is convenient, but I always jack it in. |
Topic | Is hardware-as-a-service actually going to be happening? |
kukukupo 12/09/20 9:23:24 AM #4 | Look into John Deere and what a pain it is to the farming community. Subscription hardware is already here and has been for a while. |
Topic | So I just found out a Nintendo membership comes with a huge catalog of classics. |
kukukupo 12/06/20 8:35:11 PM #8 | It is ok, but I will agree they don't add games that frequently. The Tetris 99 and Mario 35 games a pretty cool, as well. |
Topic | I feel like watch TV is necessary to function in society today |
kukukupo 12/06/20 8:33:41 PM #16 | It goes the other way too. I dated a girl just after college who lived her life through TV. She talked about characters as if they were family members and there wasn't really anything below the surface. She had a fairly rough family life, and I'm sure it was an escapist / affordability thing but it was still weird. |
Topic | My eyes are bugging me - recommend some Dark Theme games |
kukukupo 12/06/20 8:32:11 PM #10 | Most of Octopath is pretty dark colored. |
Topic | I never understood 'tool' as an insult |
kukukupo 12/05/20 8:47:57 PM #6 | I always understood 'tool' to be a drop in replacement for 'dildo' https://www.dictionary.com/browse/tool?s=t See definition #9 |

Topic | What do you think of the Star Wars franchise now? |
kukukupo 12/03/20 12:19:02 PM #35 | The original three movies are the only part of Star Wars worth watching. Same with Indiana Jones. |
