Topic | What Computer OPERATING SYSTEM do you have?? Windows, MacOS or Linux??. |
Esuriat 02/08/22 3:39:16 PM #6 | TempleOS, of course --- Essy |
Topic | How many times have you tortured Cuckoos in Zelda until they started to attack? |
Esuriat 02/08/22 1:37:55 PM #5 | Many times, specifically in Ocarina of Time. In particular running over the cuccos with Epona in Lon Lon Ranch amused me. Also using the infinite sword glitch to cucco dive into Bottom of the Well in the OoT randomizer is something I've done a bunch of. --- Essy |
Topic | Favourite fully evolved 'human-like' pokemon? (3-stage) |
Esuriat 02/06/22 2:18:19 PM #2 | Voted Alakazam, but losing that massive tail is such a downgrade. Also that tail must weigh a lot since Alakazam is lighter than Kadabra. --- Essy |
Topic | Favourite middle stage 'human-like' pokemon? |
Esuriat 02/05/22 3:21:53 PM #15 | Kadabra is probably a top 20 for me. Machoke is pretty good too though. Morgrem is actually pretty neat, but I have no experience with Gen VIII. It seems to be the best design of its line (which is true for Kadabra and Machoke too, imo) --- Essy |
Topic | Favourite unevolved 'human-like' pokemon? (3-stage) |
Esuriat 02/04/22 2:24:12 PM #9 | Abra is so good --- Essy |
Topic | What are your top 3 most played game based on playtime? |
Esuriat 02/04/22 1:09:44 PM #48 | Doom/Doom II Master of Orion Minecraft Kind of a funny assortment. #1 genre is easily going to be action/adventure, though. Probably was strategy earlier on but my interest in turn based strategy games evaporated a decade ago outside of my occasional play of Master of Orion. --- Essy |
Topic | Do you like oranges, apples or bananas the most? |
Esuriat 01/28/22 5:42:01 PM #10 | I recently tried evercrisp apples. They were pretty nice, about as good as honeycrisp. I also appreciated that they were smaller on average since I rarely feel like eating an entire honeycrisp at once. --- Essy |
Topic | Do you like oranges, apples or bananas the most? |
Esuriat 01/28/22 4:39:35 PM #5 | If you lay aside all other considerations like preparation effort and cost, it's oranges. But if you consider effort and cost it's bananas. I eat more bananas than the other two combined. --- Essy |
Topic | The Banning of Maus is hitting me pretty hard. |
Esuriat 01/28/22 3:59:59 PM #7 | I generally don't even bother trying to parse who is just ignorant and apathetic and who is actually a Nazi sympathizer because those in positions of power who refuse to take the slightest steps toward educating themselves on how to not hurt people inflict just as much harm. And they are just as useful to the Nazi sympathizers as if they were ones themselves. Every puritanical drive that uses children as the core basis for censorship has a wicked ulterior motive and they dramatically underestimate what children are able to handle. --- Essy |
Topic | Favourite unevolved pure ground pokemon? (2-stage) |
Esuriat 01/28/22 2:46:47 PM #10 | Voted for Sandshrew but Mudbray is virtually tied for me --- Essy |

Topic | My friend once brought his copy of Tales of Symphonia to school to lend me |
Esuriat 01/21/22 2:10:08 PM #3 | The only disc I've ever broken was my PC copy of Sim City 3000 as I was trying to pop it from its case for the first time. I tried to be as gentle as I possibly could but I swear that thing was one step above fused into that center plastic. The plastic didn't flex and the disc didn't rotate at all in the case if you tried to spin it. --- Essy |
Topic | RANK 'EM: Parts of a pizza, by importance |
Esuriat 01/21/22 2:03:15 PM #14 | Sauce Crust Quality of toppings Cheese Reheatability Cheese is kind of hard to say because I'm okay with it as long as it isn't like plastic. So medium quality to high quality makes almost no difference to me. The most important thing to me is making sure the cheese isn't excessive. Excessive cheese is always trash-tier pizza. --- Essy |
Topic | Favourite unevolved primary ghost pokemon? (2-stage) |
Esuriat 01/20/22 6:12:24 PM #15 | Voted Pumpkaboo But Misdreavus is a good winner --- Essy |
Topic | Have you ever read Infinite Jest? |
Esuriat 01/20/22 6:10:40 PM #23 | Aecioo posted... sad It kind of is. It sucks that it's like this, but I've had to make peace with how my interest in things wildly fluctuates and I can want to read something one day and then just a day later the interest is gone and may never return. It doesn't matter if I'm enjoying it or not. And there's nothing I can do to push past that. Like right now the idea of reading it sounds great. Will I actually do it? Unlikely. I don't know if others were the same, but that's why I remember lying from time to time about reading books or playing games that I hadn't touched back around like 2006-2009. I wanted the energy and time to get around to doing those things and that was just my empty way of coping. --- Essy |
Topic | Have you ever read Infinite Jest? |
Esuriat 01/20/22 9:54:11 AM #5 | Over a decade ago I checked it out from the library on two separate occasions and never even opened it. It's definitely not the only book I've done this with. Also I probably did claim to have read it once on this board, years ago. --- Essy |
Topic | Favourite Pikachu clone pokemon? |
Esuriat 01/19/22 4:21:29 PM #28 | Togedemaru. I like to ponder it. --- Essy |

Topic | Favourite fully evolved early bug pokemon? (3-stage) |
Esuriat 01/16/22 3:40:12 PM #9 | Scolipede is almost my favorite Pokemon. Easy top 10, maybe top 5. Leavanny is pretty cool, too. --- Essy |
Topic | Do you like the Sing movies? |
Esuriat 01/16/22 10:38:50 AM #10 | I haven't watched either but I can say that I do like some of the character designs. --- Essy |
Topic | Pokemon that you forget the type(s) of |
Esuriat 01/16/22 10:28:18 AM #3 | For quite some time I thought Shuckle was Water/Rock instead of Bug/Rock. Also that Ursaring was Normal/Psychic instead of just Normal. --- Essy |
Topic | Post a game you've beaten that the next poster hasn't even played. |
Esuriat 01/16/22 10:18:41 AM #50 | I have not played the Gundam game (the only one I've played is Gundam Wing: Endless Duel) Sonic Robo Blast 2 --- Essy |

Topic | JRPG characters you always use even if they aren't great. |
Esuriat 01/13/22 11:30:52 AM #45 | Zigzagoon posted... Pretty much any animal character since they usually make them one note or weaker than the other characters. --- Essy |
Topic | When playing a Pokemon game, how do you nickname your catches? |
Esuriat 01/12/22 10:52:19 PM #24 | I originally never nicknamed anything, but after a while I started giving them pretty decent names. Then I burned out on the franchise after BW2 and return occasionally to rarely stay interested past the third gym in a given game. But I do nickname the Pokemon along the way when I do. --- Essy |
Topic | What is your favourite middle stage early bird pokemon? |
Esuriat 01/12/22 6:02:22 PM #11 | Trumbeak and Fletchinder are so good. All the birds are good, really. --- Essy |

Esuriat 01/12/22 11:00:40 AM #2 | I think you'll enjoy the third dungeon. Key Cavern is good. --- Essy |
Topic | Which flavor of COVID did you first get? |
Esuriat 01/10/22 7:44:21 AM #26 | red13n posted... This is definitely going to turn into another "I was sick at X time I had Omicron" conspiracy like we had way back when COVID first happened and everyone insisted their seasonal flu was COVID. Yes but also it's far more understandable now because, unlike before, covid is significantly more prevalent now than either influenza or the common cold. Of course there's also RSV and general allergies to consider so random respiratory symptoms, unless there are other reasons to believe exposure, are still more likely to just "be something else." Also to answer the topic question: Nothing so far. --- Essy |
Topic | What is your favourite early 'rodent' pokemon? |
Esuriat 01/09/22 4:10:21 PM #8 | Zigzagoon and Rattata are both very good. Sentret is fine but it becomes Furret which is one of my favorite Pokemon in general. Pretty indifferent on everything else though I haven't played since Gen V. --- Essy |
Topic | A game has three save files. |
Esuriat 01/06/22 7:02:29 AM #12 | As a kid I often picked slot 2 and let my brother have slot 1 because I like the number 2. It used to be my favorite number. Lately it is basically mental RNG that makes me select a file. --- Essy |
Topic | Dormant video game series you want revived? |
Esuriat 01/02/22 11:32:22 AM #14 | Descent (yes I have played Overload, but I still want Descent too) Freespace F-Zero Dark Cloud Banjo-Kazooie Phantasy Star (non-online series) --- Essy |
Topic | Bi-yearly that only bad people use fireworks at home. |
Esuriat 01/01/22 4:29:47 PM #52 | I have a friend who lost their cat in 2019 because fireworks scared her outside the house. Their housemate accidentally opened the door to come inside at the wrong time and that was enough. Never saw the cat again. --- Essy |

Esuriat 12/16/21 8:54:53 PM #4 | I'm pretty sure they'll ride it to the end no matter what. --- Essy |
Topic | Do you still have your WISDOM TOOTH???? |
Esuriat 12/14/21 11:01:46 PM #7 | All 4 removed at once when I was 15 I recovered from it really quickly and was eating normal food by evening the next day. I also used it as a nice excuse to play Gunbound like 10 hours a day for three days. --- Essy |
Topic | Today's Poll of the Day: What is Board 8's All-Time favorite GameCube game? |
Esuriat 11/18/21 2:39:02 AM #6 | Paper Mario: TTYD With a three way tie of F-Zero GX, Wind Waker and Melee very close behind it. --- Essy |
Topic | What Businesses CLOSED FOREVER because of COVID-19 in your City???? |
Esuriat 11/17/21 1:53:34 PM #5 | It killed my town's bowling alley. A thrift store closed. An entire Virginia-specific chain of diner/buffet restaurants closed. I knew a few other restaurants closed but I can't remember their names. But my area actually fared pretty decently, even considering that. It isn't like the period before covid didn't have its share of business closures. --- Essy |
Topic | I need to stop eating cereal for breakfast (suggestions) |
Esuriat 11/16/21 4:31:35 PM #28 | I had a similar problem with cereal but instead of terminating cereal I reflected on how I was eating just 300-350 calories for breakfast. I very rarely have snacks so that isn't a very substantial amount for a meal. So I added eggs or half peanut butter sandwiches or sometimes beans to the mix. Not adding those things to the cereal, of course. Felt the need to edit to clarify because you never know. Beans and cereal might seem plausible. --- Essy |
Topic | List every Pokemon that's been your favorite at one point |
