| Topic | #WOKEAlert: 2 SpongeBob Episodes are getting the Boot... |
| kukukupo 03/31/21 9:57:32 AM #4 | I wonder how Ren and Stimpy would fare today. . . |
| Topic | Fav old school arcade game |
| kukukupo 03/29/21 8:10:46 PM #18 | Donkey Kong from that list. Robotron, Frenzy/Berzerk, Elevator Action, and Q-bert are right up there. |
| Topic | Middle aged manager is kind of a creep |
| kukukupo 03/29/21 8:19:18 AM #25 | Can be creepy, but not automatically because of age. When I worked on the cruise lines, this was fairly common. Most people are under 30 or 50 & over (isn't exactly conductive to a family lifestyle). I had some real cool friends in their 50's when I was in my 20's. |
| Topic | Im glad im not a parent in these times |
| kukukupo 03/29/21 6:41:35 AM #4 | Zeus posted... What's there to explain? It's a goofy gimmick song. Just think back to what your folks said about "Baby Got Back" in the 90s. The world was different in the 90's. While the internet existed you not only had to listen to a radio station that would play it, but you would have to know someone who understood the slang/lyrics (which most parents did not). A parent couldn't explain "Baby Got Back" because (1) they would never have heard the song and (2) they wouldn't know what it means anyway. |
| Topic | What lasting cultural changes do you think will persist because of COVID? |
| kukukupo 03/29/21 6:38:18 AM #8 | Within two years there will be nothing left from the pandemic (except some long-term effects from some of the young people who had COVID) |
| Topic | is there anything more fucking disgusting as the modern republican politician? |

| Topic | Imagine being the captain of the first ship to pass through the Suez Canal |
| kukukupo 03/27/21 5:48:42 PM #1 | after it gets unblocked and knowing you have the potential to do the funniest thing that anyone has done ever. |
| Topic | Are your taxes done? |
| kukukupo 03/26/21 7:59:16 PM #5 | Always have taxes done by Valentine's day, so yes. |
| Topic | C/D Change is good |
| kukukupo 03/26/21 4:40:58 PM #5 | Can be both. |
| Topic | Just saw Nobody |
| kukukupo 03/26/21 2:03:07 PM #1 | Short, sweet, lots of action, no fillers. Not perfect, but a good flick. |
| Topic | Which series have you played the most number of games from? |
| kukukupo 03/26/21 8:52:35 AM #41 | Probably Mario. Especially if you count the classics like Donkey Kong, DK Jr, DK3, and Mario Bros. |
| Topic | Seeing some of the post and topics on the politics board fucking terrifies me. |
| kukukupo 03/25/21 9:40:42 AM #19 | JOExHIGASHI posted... I never mentioned lincoln or roosevelt You implied that people taking down statues aren't extreme. They are. |
| Topic | Seeing some of the post and topics on the politics board fucking terrifies me. |
| kukukupo 03/25/21 9:02:21 AM #13 | JOExHIGASHI posted... Taking down confederate statues is too extreme for you? Or are you referring to the kkk statue removed recently? How about idiots taking down statues of Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt? When it turns into an Onion headline, maybe you have gone too far. |
| Topic | Does it seem to anyone else that most cars suck nowadays? |
| kukukupo 03/24/21 10:02:31 AM #12 | Older cars didn't have all of the electronics & features. More features = more possibility of failure. |
| Topic | Where did the "black people die first in horror movie" trope come from |
| kukukupo 03/22/21 8:21:23 PM #30 | JoanOfArcade posted... I like how @Zeus has no examples of it happening. None of the Friday the 13th movies or Nightmare on Elm street, Halloween, Child's Play, Alien, Predator, hellraiser. Counting all the sequels in those series that's over 50 movies where it doesn't happen.

| Topic | I want to move out of Illinois, recommendations? |
| kukukupo 03/22/21 8:12:31 PM #44 | GastroFan posted... Rapid City, South Dakota is a nice place I hear. I believe Souix Falls is in South Dakota as well. Yeah, I said North Dakota, but I meant South. |
| Topic | Ranch or Blue Cheese? |
| kukukupo 03/22/21 12:29:48 PM #29 | Neither. About the only 'sauce' I like is BBQ for meat or the Garlic sauce for breadsticks. |
| Topic | Favorite beer |
| kukukupo 03/22/21 10:36:45 AM #6 | I prefer beer of the root variety. |
| Topic | I want to move out of Illinois, recommendations? |
| kukukupo 03/22/21 10:34:20 AM #34 | The first question would be - what do you do for a living and can you do it elsewhere? If I were single again without a family, I'd probably be moving to Ft. Lauderdale FL - but that is primarily because of job and I would be traveling so much I'd never be there. Two really nice places people overlook are North Dakota (Souix Falls) and Wyoming (Cheyanne). Yes, Cheyanne just got hit with two feet of snow, but it is in the middle of nowhere, low cost of living, and that is very atypical (Texas had a ton of snow this winter as well). Standard High is about 40 degrees in the winter & 80 or so in the summer. Taxes aren't stupid high, cost of living is ok, Souix Falls is a little warmer in the summer and a little cooler in the winter than Cheyanne, but not too bad. If you are in HealthCare or Education, you should be able to find a gig just about anywhere. |

| Topic | This is the hot news issue of the day. |
| kukukupo 03/20/21 8:22:27 PM #27 | Remember when FDR climbed those stairs? Anyone? |
| Topic | I feel I need an AMA right now - so AMA me anything |
| kukukupo 03/19/21 8:22:30 PM #6 | What is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow? |
| Topic | do you a brush your teeth twice a day? |
| kukukupo 03/19/21 11:32:52 AM #7 | At least a couple times a day. Waking up and before bed. Usually in the afternoon sometime as well. |
| Topic | What's the best schwarzenegger movie? |
| kukukupo 03/18/21 8:26:33 AM #23 | Conan, True Lies, or Kindergarten Cop. Also could be Red Sonja - but he isn't the 'lead' in that movie. |
| Topic | battle of olympus |
| kukukupo 03/17/21 11:09:48 AM #11 | Lokarin posted... They probably also worked on Rambo. Love Rolling Thunder. I have the Jamma PCB. |
| Topic | What is your favorite gwen stefani/no doubt song? |
| kukukupo 03/17/21 8:09:57 AM #28 | Don't really care about them. I saw them live in the 90s and they were just terrible. Stefani couldn't sing on pitch to save her life. |
| Topic | battle of olympus |
| kukukupo 03/16/21 8:21:13 PM #5 | Played it quite a bit back in the day because my neighbor had it. It always felt like a poor Zelda II. |
| Topic | This song is my jam rn |
| kukukupo 03/16/21 6:34:01 PM #23 | Lol. That was terrible anyway. Sounds like a bad version of the Beatles. That being said, good luck finding a musician who isn't 'problematic' in today's society. |
| Topic | Do you like Animals more than humans? |
| kukukupo 03/16/21 8:20:22 AM #29 | FatalAccident posted... No because Im not a sociopath |
| Topic | GameTok with Lok: You know you love it - SNES RPGS!!! |
| kukukupo 03/16/21 6:19:31 AM #42 | Still play Chrono Trigger every few years. Just beat it again around Christmas. Top tier game for sure. The standard by which most RPGs are judged. Final Fantasy 5 is the best FF on the SNES. FF 6 is ok. Loved it when it came out, but I find it somewhat of a chore to play. Same goes for FF 4 - but I like it much less. Lufia 2 is a good game, but pretty formulaic (town, dungeon, town, dungeon) Lufia 1 I have more fond memories of. Pretty generic, though. Im playing Super Mario RPG right now. Still a pretty good game. Never was crazy for Earthbound, but it is a good game. Ill play it before FF 4 or 6. Breath of Fire games are good. I prefer 2 over 1. Really liked Robotrek. Does get a little old, though. Loved Arcana when it came out. Havent played it since then, though. Romancing Saga 3 is a pretty solid game. I havent beat it, but I enjoy the openness. I still have many that I want to play more / get through: Treasure of the Rudras, Treasure Hunter G, Live a Live, etc. |
| Topic | is it worth paying for the nintendo switch online service? |
| kukukupo 03/15/21 1:48:10 PM #15 | Nope. |
| Topic | I have gotten to the point where I'm starting to hate everything |
| kukukupo 03/15/21 11:30:15 AM #25 | I have a wife and kids and I still hit this point. I think it is part of being older. I despise people and only have a couple of 'real' friends - and they are people I have known since grade school and rarely talk to any more. I once worked with a guy for three years and never learned his name. Best friend I ever had. We still never talk sometimes. |
| Topic | Is anyone here hesitant to get the covid vaccine? |
| kukukupo 03/15/21 11:26:24 AM #33 | I was - but I had the opportunity to get it - and since I'm basically the only non-vaccinated adult in my 'bubble' - I decided to go ahead and get it. I haven't had my second dose yet - so I don't get the messages from Bill Gates clearly. It sounds more like constant static in my head - like a radio that isn't tuned in. I'm sure after my second shot the messages will be crystal clear and I'll be ready to fall in line with the New World Order. |
| Topic | PSA: Big Trouble In Little China is free on Youtube (USA) |
| kukukupo 03/14/21 7:44:34 AM #8 | One of the greatest movies evar. |
| Topic | When a game series dramatically changes its battle system... |
| kukukupo 03/13/21 7:10:18 PM #10 | Pretty much agree. DQ = good still FF = garbage |
| Topic | I got vaccinated with Moderna about half an hour ago |
| kukukupo 03/13/21 6:37:13 PM #8 | Zikten posted... The needle was smallest I ever saw. Didn't really hurt. Wait until tomorrow. . . Also, the messages from Bill Gates don't kick in for another few days. . . |
| Topic | Can you believe its been a year since Cardi B first warned us about coronavirus? |
| kukukupo 03/13/21 1:44:10 PM #20 | ReturnOfFa posted... She's hilarious and can rap. That's how.Neither of these are true. |

| Topic | Yahoo! South Park Vaccination Special is here! |
| kukukupo 03/12/21 1:04:32 PM #4 | It wasn't bad, but not great. Nice to see the focus away from Randy. |
| Topic | Just got a bonus, and about to get a stimulus and tax returns. Gotta love Biden. |
| kukukupo 03/12/21 1:03:06 PM #15 | Doesn't make one lick of difference who is in the white house. We already had two stimulus checks from the previous president and a tax break. Meet the new boss same as the old boss. |
| Topic | Musicians with one name |
| kukukupo 03/12/21 1:00:43 PM #30 | Bjork. Prince doesn't count - he's "the artist formerly known as" Prince. |
| Topic | Arv has the ability to get vaccinated but isn't |
| kukukupo 03/11/21 6:54:02 PM #33 | Just got my first poke. In 3 weeks I'll hit every bar in town! Party time! |

| kukukupo 03/11/21 4:20:35 PM #7 | Sometimes they wiped the save file on a cart with batteries. |
| Topic | Did you consider yourself a Seinfeld fan? |
| kukukupo 03/11/21 4:15:29 PM #38 | Didn't watch it or care when it aired. I've seen some episodes and I like it - but nothing I binge watch or anything. Best sitcoms I can think of would be Married with Children, Home Improvement, or 3rd Rock from the sun. |
| Topic | What movie series should I watch? |
| kukukupo 03/11/21 8:28:19 AM #12 | Bourne movies Blade Runner movies Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit National Treasure Indiana Jones |
| Topic | Wtf where's all the animation series gone??? |
| kukukupo 03/10/21 6:07:18 PM #6 | Ive been seeing new animation Duck tales is ending. Amphibia has new releases. Craig of the creek as well. (yes, I have kids. These are a few decent shows I can tolerate) |
| Topic | TMNT beat 'em up coming from devs behind Scott Pilgrim game |
| kukukupo 03/10/21 5:25:52 PM #15 | I'm in. But it looks more like someone just edited some of the sprites from the arcade game for the 'gameplay'. If they truly use that style, it will be an amazing game! |
