I don't understand the Groucho Marx joke, "well either he's dead or my watch has stopped",

I think it's like:

His watch has stopped. He is not paying attention to the real pulse at all. The pulse only exists when it is measured by a watch in his mind. As his watch has stopped, it has stopped ticking, which transitively he associates with the heart, which also ticks, and assumed he is dead, instead of do what it seemed he was doing, a tachycardia test.

he's a tool/process-first, patient-second doctor,

contemplated this, have not arrived at a conclusion. thank you thiugh, at least SOMEBODY is taking this seriously

[PhantomCatClock]

total pulses over seconds

fifteen pulses, zero seconds

division by zero error

conclusions: patient dead, or, watch malfunction

it takes a truly great artist to blame the brush. you can dissect his work all you want but you need to both ascend and transcend to see him eye to eye

not content to sell the same games over and over and over, nintendo has announced a remake

[Slurpee]

they misunderstood when people said "why don't they just make starfox 64 again?" somebody's definitely already made this joke

[Slurpee]

in the original star fox for snes peppy was named peppy because he had a very peppy personality, but then in every subsequent game he's tommy lee jones

[PhantomCatClock]

actually saiyans are all named after vegetables so it's just a slant-non-rhyme for pepsi

[Slurpee]

そおですか

[PhantomCatClock]

i think you use う when elongating o-sound in hiragana

also pepsi is a soda, not a sodé

it's leon's first day at the r.c.p.d. and nobody is wearing the same uniform as him. were they playing a prank or did he make his own uniform at home?

[PhantomCatClock]

he transferred from a nintendo game

I'm at least at the point where I'm glad there are different syllabaries though it occurs to me intentional puns may be helpful illustrators of why it's important

i actually just reset my wanikani because I was away for so long. HEY WHO WANTS TO BE WANIKANI PALS

the colt single action army, the gun that revolver ocelot says is the best gun ever, that's the same gun that they invented the "cowboy load" for- the hammer rests on the back of one of the chambers, which made them vulnerable to accidental discharge, so cowboys would only load 5 bullets with the hammer resting on an empty chamber to avoid shooting themselves in the leg

ocelot says "6 shots, more than enough to kill anything that moves"

anyway I just think it's really funny to imagine revolver ocelot's gun going off for no reason in the middle of a cutscene. have a blessed day

[PhantomCatClock]

shawn spencer uses a hi standard supermatic with no bullets so he doesn't accidentally shoot anything

man that was weird

got a knock on the door. was two HUGE angels (the perceivable kind, at least. looked like really strong humans) (wings tho) wearing high-vis vests and hardhats. one was holding a clipboard

'hey, just letting you know we're doing some work in this neighborhood. we'll try to keep the noise to normal working hours but sometimes we gotta do nights, should take a decade or two'

i mean i've been working from home with the window open but it sounds like whatever they're working on is important so i wasn't gonna interrupt, but the angel went on to explain that everyone who's died in my neighborhood in the last 200 years is just gone. something wrong with the afterlife right here, but they're aware and are gonna start fixing it in august or so


this is excellent news because i'm pretty sure i'm not gonna die until my 80's. no need to move

there is a whole single* player Monkey Island game in Sea of Thieves and it's honestly not shorter than the first game, and aside from one swordfight in act 1 and, tragically, needing to know how to manage an entire ship Sea of Thieves style at the VERY end, you can almost just hop in, play it, and then delete Sea of Thieves



i guess the tutorial would help, and I actually recommend STARTING the monkey island 'tall tale' (quest) in a public ocean. Any island you start at can start it, if you futz around in the right NPC's tent
