how do you make good burger 2 without abe vigoda

is there a word for when you find something scary as fuck but also cool so instead of repulsion and aversion your response is curiosity and you just keep hitting that button over and over again while continuing to fear it like a dumb idiot?
like... "phobiaphilia"?

on a related note, today I stumbled upon the deeply upsetting world of "submechanophobia", an extremely made-up-sounding word that allegedly means the fear of submerged man-made objects

I don't think this is something that needs a word, honestly. I'm trying to imagine a human being who doesn't instinctively reject images of underwater robots with rotting faces that may or may not move of their own accord and all I can think of is maybe the undertaker or kane

I managed to offend Scott Miller, of Apogee/3D Realms fame

he is proud of coming up with half the name of a name that already existed, though by the end of the post he'd done all the art too




if someone told me people were making fun of me on a forum and the conversation turned towards me taking credit for everything, i would probably also post an um actually about how i created everything

friendly reminder that the nintendo 3ds and wii u shops are shutting down on the 27th

waiting for the 3ds version of urotsukidoji to go on sale first

really glad I hacked my 3DS recently. making your own themes and virtual console injections is very satisfying. I wish there were more homebrew ports like mario 64 and doom but what's there is pretty neat. I hope the other n64 games with leaked source code get a 3ds port like Mario 64. I prefer the original n64dd release of urotsukudoji 64 anyways.

this sounds cool though

I gave all my 3DS games to a coworker for her son's Xmas gifts, but I held onto the console because when I went to PAX in Boston I damn near got every state in the US on my little map where your Miis meet each other or whatever the hell that feature was

Just watched the first episode of Lucky Hank, the new AMC show with Saul Goodman and it was P good

I was considering going to a PAX in Boston very soon

I have no clue why youtube recommended this other than like... I listened to a Voltaire song last  year..?
