| Topic | Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (spoilers - duh) |
| kukukupo 12/31/19 9:16:21 PM #11 | Metalsonic66 posted... The fact that the trilogy was still better than the prequels despite clear direction is impressive. I haven't seen all of them, but I disagree with this statement. I'd say they are pretty equally terrible. The prequels have a better overall plot and setting, and at least a few characters I care about. The Sequels did nothing but crap all over the OT. Just like Indiana Jones, there are only three Star Wars movies. |
| Topic | name some games you were playing in 2009 |
| kukukupo 12/31/19 9:12:12 PM #23 | The GOTY for 2009 was Plants Vs Zombies. I played that game non-stop. |
| Topic | Looking back now, I'm shocked at how badly Madonna was shamed back in 2005 |
| kukukupo 12/29/19 7:45:40 PM #10 | All I can remember about Madonna in the 2000's is that she was ..an old anorexic whore who wore out her welcome years ago, and that now she suddenly speaks with a British accent and she thinks she can play guitar and she should go f@&! herself. |
| Topic | Why are movies like Gremlins and Diehard considered Christmas movies? |
| kukukupo 12/27/19 7:19:00 PM #22 | Krazy_Kirby posted... die hard could have just as easily been a normal office party on a friday night or something. Bruce isn't flying out just to visit an office party. Flying out for Christmas, however, is an entirely different thing. I suppose it could be Thanksgiving, but most offices don't have thanksgiving parties. |
| Topic | Ok so Rise of Skywalker wasn't total crap. |
| kukukupo 12/25/19 8:40:28 PM #28 | Zero desire to see it. I couldn't care less. |
| Topic | Did you think clinton was a better president or obama? |
| kukukupo 12/25/19 8:39:02 PM #16 | I don't think any of the presidents in my lifetime were 'good'. There are just bad and a little less bad. |
| Topic | Going to see Star Wars now *MAJOR SPOILERS* |
| kukukupo 12/20/19 5:04:40 AM #18 | MrMelodramatic posted... Official ranking of canon movies: Well, know I know your opinion is worthless. There are only three Star Wars movies, by the way. |
| Topic | will you still be using windows 7 next year? |
| kukukupo 12/18/19 6:04:05 AM #42 | Yes I still have about 7-8 virtual machines that I have win7 on. Nearly all of my professional work is done in virtual machines, so I'll be using it for a very long time yet. |
| Topic | South Park has the best christmas specials |
| kukukupo 12/11/19 7:05:49 PM #9 | Woodland critter Christmas was amazing. |
| Topic | If you think The Last Jedi is the worst Star Wars movie |
| kukukupo 12/10/19 5:45:51 PM #31 | ParanoidObsessive posted... Actually, I'm Gen X, so your premise is invalid and your entire worldview is built upon a foundation of lies. |
| Topic | How do you get paid (hourly salary monthly) |
| kukukupo 12/09/19 6:47:38 PM #17 | Both. I get an hourly rate at my day job. I get a salary at my night job. |
| Topic | 'The prequels are worse than the Disney trilogy!!!" |

| Topic | old RPGS who likes them,i love them myself :) |
| kukukupo 11/22/19 8:14:37 PM #31 | Old school is the best. Chrono Trigger is still the best game I've played to date. If you like old school games, you should really try Octopath Traveler and Dragon Quest 11. Both great games - DQ11 can be played completely in 2d! |
| Topic | Started watching Rick and Morty last week (early spoilers) |
| kukukupo 11/22/19 8:12:21 PM #3 | I was meh until I saw the episode with the dogs. Then I was hooked. |
| Topic | Are you a Boomer or a Zoomer? |
| kukukupo 10/21/19 6:01:38 PM #14 | myghostisdead posted... Gen X. |
| Topic | Do you think prime simpsons or south park was funnier? |
| kukukupo 10/10/19 6:39:18 AM #11 | South Park has literally made me laugh out loud. The Simpsons hasn't. |
| Topic | C/D: One Day Phones will make pc's obsolete and outpace them |
| kukukupo 09/24/19 12:16:46 PM #16 | I've actually gotten rid of my smartphone. There is NOTHING it can do that I can't do much better and more comfortably on a PC apart from making phone calls. |
| Topic | What is your favorite "old person" show from back in the day? |
| kukukupo 09/22/19 7:22:56 PM #54 | Get Smart was the best. Classic Batman as well. Now that I'm older, I quite enjoy some of the older brittish shows I never saw like: As Time Goes By Blackadder The Vicar of Dibley |
| Topic | IMO, western pop music was great in the 90s/early 2000s but new pop is trash |
| kukukupo 09/22/19 7:16:31 PM #10 | Madonna is an old anorexic whore who wore out her welcome years ago, and that now she suddenly speaks with a British accent and she thinks she can play guitar and she should go f herself. That said, today's pop music is 100% garbage. |
| Topic | Why are 30 year olds getting triggered about teenagers not knowing who... |
| kukukupo 09/11/19 6:04:18 AM #58 | Meh. works both ways I guess. I saw the meme. I haven't a clue who Post Malone is and I can't be bothered to look it up. |
| Topic | Favorite single player game breaking bug |
| kukukupo 09/04/19 4:38:27 PM #23 | I was always partial to world -1 in super mario bros. Totally worthless, but kind of surreal. |
| Topic | Question, why do your american toilets have the water level so high? |
| kukukupo 09/03/19 6:40:17 AM #8 | Not sure what toilets you've seen recently, most of them are now stupidly low. |
| Topic | someone wrote a 760 page book on organizing |
| kukukupo 09/01/19 7:57:31 PM #9 | What is the book, I'm legitimately interested. |
| Topic | What's your favourite game where you, fuckin', like, push blocks or whatever |
| kukukupo 09/01/19 7:55:04 PM #25 | Still love the lolo games. |
| Topic | Did you think The Last Jedi was just bad? |
| kukukupo 08/29/19 6:26:42 AM #48 | Well, I have watched star wars since I was very little (original trilogy). Today, I have zero feelings on the new star wars. The new trailer did nothing for me, and I have no desire to see the third or any other film in the trilogy. I have a copy of the original, un-edited trilogy and that is all I really need from Star Wars anymore. |
| Topic | Interview to be a kingergarten teacher tomorrow. |
| kukukupo 08/20/19 7:19:30 PM #20 | Good luck, they suck the life right out of you! High energy all the time! Be prepared for some drinks afterwords. |
| Topic | ITT: We create a crappy story three words at a time |
| kukukupo 08/07/19 6:57:56 PM #13 | in his dreams, |
| Topic | Best nostalgic show. |
| kukukupo 08/07/19 7:15:41 AM #8 | Stranger things comes pretty close. The Goldbergs seemed ok - but I haven't seen than in 3-4 years. |
| Topic | Any cruise experts on here? I'm curious about the gratuity. |
| kukukupo 08/05/19 3:55:43 PM #14 | Mead posted... The only people I go out of my way to tip on cruises are the room stewards because they usually do an awesome job and the server at the dining hall because its normally the same person for the whole cruise. If Im just ordering some drinks or something I usually dont bother with a tip. This right here. Room stewards are typically tipped. When I worked on the cruise line they got tipped about $1 / day from the crew. The waiter is usually tipped because you will have the same waiter every day of the cruise (assuming you eat the standard meals). The rest is pretty much as needed. All drinks are extra (alcoholic) and not included in the price. This is what trips up most cruise-goers. Most don't bother to tip since they already pay extra. I don't recall 100% - but the cabin crew pretty much lives off tips and the waiters as well. The bartenders / etc are paid decent apart from tips. |
| Topic | Sorry MCU, I'm out. It's too much. |
| kukukupo 07/22/19 2:37:56 PM #14 | Same. I did see endgame, but that was the last for me. I don't really care anymore. Of cousre, I didn't care much to begin with. I had no interest and didn't see any of the Iron Mans (apart form the first one) Thor, Black Panther, or Captain Marvel. Now, there are just too many to try and keep up with, and honestly most of them hold no interest. I only see any of the new ones that my wife insists we go see. |
| Topic | Anyone else getting annoyed with all these STEM advertisements? |
| kukukupo 07/06/19 9:39:37 PM #19 | I guess my STEM experience differs from most here. I got into STEM completely by accident. I had a job after my first semester and it paid off the rest of my degree. I've been in and out of my field over the last 10 years and I never stop getting calls for work. Like anything else, I'm sure it depends on what industries exist where you are. Your best bet is to see what the local community college teaches in the area you live in - they usually only have degrees for what is short-staffed locally or qualifies you for employment in the major industries in your area. |
| Topic | Best "top tier" Mario platformer? |
| kukukupo 06/25/19 6:13:57 PM #21 | Its not popular, apparently, but Super Mario 2 is the best one. |
| Topic | My son says Legend of the Drunken Master is the best Jackie Chan Movie |
| kukukupo 06/22/19 12:13:54 PM #11 | 1978 Drunken Master or 1994 Drunken Master? |
| Topic | Are the Final Fantasy games actually good? |
| kukukupo 06/12/19 7:20:03 PM #13 | Some are good, some are not. 1 and 5 are the only ones I regularly replay. 4 and 6 are ok every now and then - maybe every 5 years or so. The rest I just haven't held up IMO. I don't bother with them. |
| Topic | why is everything 'toxic' now? |
| kukukupo 06/12/19 7:13:05 PM #20 | joemodda posted... Everything is toxic because they put the chemicals in the fields and the chemtrails in the sky and flouride in the water and the Mercury in the vaccines and they're literally turning the frogs gay. You know what, joemodda, I LIKE YOU. You're not like the other People, here, in the trailer park. Oh, don't go get me wrong. They're fine people, they're Good Americans. But they're content to sit back, maybe Watch a little Mork and Mindy on channel 57, maybe kick Back a cool, Coors 16-ouncer. They're good, fine people, joemodda. But they don't know ... what the queers are doing To the soil! You know that Jonny Wurster kid, the kid that delivers papers In the neighborhood. He's a foreign kid. Some of the neighbors Say he smokes crack, but I don't believe it. Anyway, for his tenth birthday, all he wanted was a Burrow Owl. Kept bugging his old man. "Dad, get me a burrow owl. I'll never Ask for anything else as long as I live." So the guy Breaks down and buys him a burrow owl. Anyway, 10:30, the other night, I go out in my yard, and there's The Wurster kid, looking up in the tree. I say, "What are You looking for?" He says "I'm looking for my burrow owl." I say, "Jumping Jesus on a Pogo Stick. Everybody knows The burrow owl lives. In a hole. In the ground. Why the hell do you Think they call it a burrow owl, anyway?" Now joemadda, do you Think a kid like that is going to know what the queers are Doing to the soil? |

| Topic | Who is your favorite Final fantasy villain? |
| kukukupo 06/06/19 7:35:44 PM #59 | Chaos. |
| Topic | Something about the old colonial style of warfare never sat well with me |
| kukukupo 06/06/19 12:47:46 PM #2 | If I recall, it had more to do with how inaccurate rifles were coupled with rate of fire and approaching melee combatants. By lining up square, the first line could kneel and the second line could have rifles over the shoulders of the first creating a compact firing range. They didn't aim at targets, they just tried to keep an area filled with flying shrapnel. Good units could fire several times a minute if I recall. |
| Topic | Why are some people against gentrification? |
| kukukupo 06/05/19 6:49:55 PM #29 | It depends on the location. It isn't just the ghetto. People may have lived in a certain area for generations and have their houses paid off. Five years later, they are paying more in property taxes than they ever paid in house payments and they can't afford to live there anymore - even if their home is paid off. Kinda sucks. |
| Topic | Ok, college is a joke. |
| kukukupo 06/02/19 7:49:23 PM #27 | You are wrong and right. First of all, college is just as much about the education as the networking. I didn't realize/know that the first time through, I just put my head down and did the work and didn't care at all about the professors. The second time through, I made sure to know the professors, ask questions, put effort into my assignments, and ensure I had someone who I could use as a reference in the future. It has paid off more than once. After some time, you'll find some professors are actually passionate about their work and keep in touch with the industry they are involved in - and you can get job leads through them. Some professors don't care and are just professional instructors with no involvement in the industry. |

| Topic | It was a hard choice, but I had to go with the original LoZ |
| kukukupo 05/31/19 9:37:38 PM #52 | DeathMagnetic80 posted... Black_Crusher posted...I'm so biased but honestly there was just nothing like Zelda 1 at the time. I played it for so many hours.. That, Commando, and Metroid were the games my buddy had that really sold me on wanting to get a Nintendo in the first place. Well yes, but actually no. Old games used to come with these wonderful things called manuals, maps, and charts. Many of the Zelda secrets were not that difficult to find back in the day, and were in fact written in publications. The second quest, however, was a completely different story. |
| Topic | It was a hard choice, but I had to go with the original LoZ |
| kukukupo 05/31/19 9:31:31 PM #51 | Wasn't a hard choice for me. The original is still the best in the series by far. One of the few games I regularly play year after year. |
| Topic | Favorite 90's alternative band or group? |
| kukukupo 05/30/19 7:28:06 PM #35 | The easy choice would be Nirvana. However, I'd probably go with either Live, Bjork, or Garbage. |
| Topic | people who quit online matches when they start losing can are not only losers |
| kukukupo 05/28/19 7:45:36 PM #7 | keyblader1985 posted... kukukupo posted...Quitting when you screw up and have no chance? Why not? It is my time, I might as well make better use of it. I guess I have an old school approach. People online don't exist. They are just 1's and 0's that interact with me for my pleasure. I don't have time to care about people on the other end. |
| Topic | people who quit online matches when they start losing can are not only losers |
| kukukupo 05/28/19 7:31:25 PM #4 | Quitting every time you START losing? Sure, that is annoying. Quitting when you screw up and have no chance? Why not? It is my time, I might as well make better use of it. |
| Topic | What is your favorite movie that has ever won best picture? |
| kukukupo 05/26/19 3:39:18 PM #4 | I honestly don't think I could name a movie that won best picture. I never really cared. |
| Topic | Are you interested in seeing the new aladdin movie? |

| Topic | Which colored album from Weezer is best? |
| kukukupo 05/25/19 8:15:53 AM #13 | Blue > Pinkerton > whatever else there is. |
| Topic | Which Final Fantasy game would you recommend I play first: FF7 or FF9? |
| kukukupo 05/18/19 8:35:58 PM #26 | papercup posted... Of those two, IX is the better game for sure, but you might not get much out of it if you're not already familiar with FF. So of those two play VII first. I'd go with this advice and skip everything after 6. 1, 4, 5 and 6 are the best games in the series. |
