    Tycho and I have the same problem. I can't play GTA games because I just kill people for 5 minutes, the cops come, they kill me and I turn the game off because I'm bored.

    You'd think so, but no.

    Frappes are superior because they're region-specific.
    Frappe. Typically in the New England states and some other eastern states prior to the the mid-1960's, restaurants and other food service providers gave you a choice of a "milkshake" or a "frappe". The "milkshake" was just that, milk whipped with a flavoring syrup such as chocolate, strawberry, coffee, or vanilla. The "frappe" had the same base, but was thickened with scoops of ice cream — usually vanilla ice cream, but sometimes ice cream of the same flavor as the syrup used. It was frappeed (Pronounced, frapp-aid) in a tall metal mixing cup. When served, the frappe (Pronounced, frapp) was poured into a glass and the balance of the frappe was left in the mixing cup and placed alongside of the glass so that you could finish the whole drink.

    Same here.

    I mean, I can't use that potion! What if I end up needing 20hp in the next boss fight? I had better just save obsessively and restart if anything I don't like happens.

    This is also why I take so long to beat pokemon games. I have like 14 guys I alternate between in my main team instead of 6 or 8

    Fuck I don't even use summon spells or anything unless I feel like it's necessary.

    The best part is, though, that when you get to a tough end-boss fight or something you can just go crazy with the items because you have so many of them.

    My Sapphire cart had over 250 hours on it before I beat the Elite 4 because I obsessively filled out (by evolving/breeding/catching/etc) my entire pokedex as I went through the game.

    After I was finished I vowed never to do that again. In Diamond I just played through with my 6 dudes and beat the E4 first. Then I was able to go back and be obsessive in peace. It wasn't easy, but resisting the urge to get anal made the experience much more enjoyable. I find that this applies to many situations in life.

    Also this is the best comic

    there is a gelato place that opened up near campus recently. The owner hand makes a new batch every few days so the selection is always different. They also have a knockoff of Pinkberry, and that is pretty damn tasty too. It will be the death of me.

    I have two basic problems with the GTA games

    one is the same problem Tycho has

    the other is the fact that the missions universally blow goats

    Edit: yeah, I too have that problem with RPGs when they are all CUSTOMIZATION WOO MENUS AND SHIT

    and I'm all I JUST WANT TO HIT THINGS WITH MY SWORD GODDAMN

    same here. I'm always like "man, I just know I'm gonna need this for the final boss fight." and then i don't need it.
