    Trying to sneakily check out her hand for a wedding ring...

    A little late due to Wikipedia distractions, but this is not guaranteed in Japan.

    Fffffffffffff (especially with a gym teacher)

    My girlfriend is trying to convince me that you can make a working copy of a modern 3D video game using video of that game.

    So I'm like hey there's a 24 hour indian restaurant nearby, I will go there in the middle of the night and get a delicious indian dessert!

    But it's not 24 hours any more so I got taco bell.

    It was untasty!

    Like..if I film half life 2 I could then install it on my computer?

    That's silly!

    Sadly, she is surrounded by fucking crazy people living in backwater nowheresville who like to fill her ear with absolute bullshit.

    It's especially jarring because she's trying to convince me of this. I've been testing video games for about three years.

    She's an incredible person but every once in awhile she makes me want to slam my head into a wall.

    So I marathoned my way through Battlestar Galactica after clicking around boredly on Netflix like a month ago.

    I should not have watched the final episode
    I feel like I've been trolled. Hard.

    To be fair, she means there are "emulator" programs that can take the video information and make a game out of it.

    This still hurts my head like whoa.

    Also at some point coke I am going to send you a screen shot of the different mech parts this game has with the stat names. I know what different types of stats a piece can have in English (an arm can have say, HP, reload speed, weapon change speed and recoil absorption) but I just don't know what order they appear in.

    Do you think you could help me with that?

    I need to just get a 2 liter bottle of water that I throw into my fridge every night that I bring to work, or a big fuck off thermos.

    The Japanese just do not drink enough water for me.

    I have a Tiger thermos I bought in Japan that I'm still using today. It's small enough to fit in my messenger bag for work, big enough for about 1.5 cups of whatever, and if needed I can bludgeon someone with it pretty effectively.

    And then take a sip of scalding hot tea afterwards.

    Border break, its a Japanese arcade game. It saves your mech and I am starting to get to the point where I can customize my guy, I am just not sure what stats I am changing, hehe. Like, I can guess that the part line called "heavy guard" probably has a lot of HP and the part line called "shrike" that looks super flimsy is probably really fast but, eventually I will need to rely on more than just looks.

    If you live in the US, they've been a thing forever.

    Which reminds me of an article I read some time ago, about Oreo trying to convince brits to eat Oreos. The Brits seemed unimpressed.

    Brits have custard creams and bourbons, they just like to front.

    Silly Brits.

    This spoon is everything I've ever wanted out of life (the part of life regarding cookies at the very least).

    Ah, ok. Kinda like that big-ass Gundam game I would play occasionally. I like the card-based games like that where you're actually making progress and unlocking upgrades as you play.

    I never did break down and actually play Lord of Vermillion, even though I was always sorely tempted to. I think I even picked up a few cards for the hell of it.

    The big, new thing here in Australia a couple months back was Double Stuff Oreos.

    I kept seeing adverts and thinking "We had these back when I was in high school. Why are they new here?" o.O

    Man, I really need to stop slacking on learning Chinese. I have like 50+ cards programmed into Anki on my phone right now, but I really need to practice around my gf and her mom so they can *correct my accent.

    We have a strong biscuit culture so new stuff needs to be more than middling to get any traction. We need a revolution in biscuit science, not sad oreos.

    That said, I think you can still buy them here. And they were present in station vending machines in France

    So apparently I have a date from okcupid with a girl who told me she hopes I'm not turned off by the fact that she's a former sex worker and heroin addict.

    She used to have sex for a living. How could this be a turn off.

    Well it seems clear by now that most mass market edibles need constant marketing in order to retain or grow, so I guess whoever owns Oreo has both the will and the stamina to push the brand in new markets

    They will no doubt have innovation goals, so they can either develop and sell new lines our push old lines in new territories.
