    (Bad)Joke Appreciation Corner

    i've been hearing about a lot of stuff that rhymes with "Sponge Bob Square Pants" for some reason. there's a new clothing-sharing network for messy, tan people: i also just went to a cafe with very angular bushes; the food was pretty good, though. one of my friends, Robert, was in an...

    Nintendo Switch

    @rygD i like metroidvanias and would like to play, but apparently it's about 10 hours of playtime. to me, i can't justify $60 on a first-party title like that. i get roughly twice that out of a hollow-knight run, and i've done that about 3 times now. sorta feel like trying to support other...

    COVID-19 / Coronavirus Pandemic

    wear a mask, get the vaccine, save a life. super heroes wear masks :) no need to dispute this over and over... i thought the thread was going to get locked down if it was overrun by contrarians again
