I think Hawaii is pretty much sorted when it comes boards… you probably want to get on their board.

Yeah, empty spaghetti, flat spaghetti… you could also add the thick spaghetti : spaghettoni.
- Comment on Let's put ice in the wine and chocolate in the hummus 2 weeks ago:
Good trolling! I’m not even Italian and even I find this infuriating.
Like, call it pasta if you don’t know the name is. Even my wife knows that spaghetti is a specific type of pasta and not the general name.
And she might forget the specific names of the Italian kind but you can be sure she is a stickler for specifics when it comes to the Chinese noodles! - Comment on Informative review 2 weeks ago:
Just pick the one that looks like it has the flavors you enjoy, then that’s usually it, unless there is an option to pick sugar / ice amounts. In Berlin they also let you pick what “bubbles” you wanted : you had the classic boba with some flavour inside them, but also chunks of jelly, or what I guess was tapioca pearls (more chunky, no juice inside).
Or you do like I always did in China : point to the one that looks best and hope for the best :)

- Comment on True art is polarizing 3 weeks ago:
I remember watching Fail Safe by chance and that movie was so fucking tense! Completely carried by the amazing cast. Maybe I should watch it again!
It’s about a cold war situation where iirc the USA bomb a city in Russia by accident and the movie / play is about how the two presidents negotiate to avoid all out nuclear war. Fantastic stuff.

That was my feeling as well, but at least the patootie one is US slang.
- Comment on Who dares disturb my liver? 1 month ago:
Ooh, so apparently these are in Green’s Dictionary of Slang! And although they are mostly British, the dictionary is not limited to UK English. And it’s got quotes! The one for kicky-wicky is Shakespeare, love it!

Same. I thought there was deodorant in the underwear and kids were huffing the sprayed undies to get a buzz.

We moved to the arsehole of France, so my wife just orders a monthly delivery of Chinese products straight from China, these days.

That’s not even considered spicy. That’s just basic flavouring.

Yeah, there is a reason I didn’t know the word “aspic”. What an abomination.

You are not watching the right kind of propaganda from Japan, my young friend.

If she has had one, it’s a great indicator of fertility and being interested in having kids. Just gotta hope she wasn’t traumatised by the experience and you’ve got a good chance of more babies for Japan!

Do we still need to click to pick shit up on the ground? Because that drove me insane to the point I didn’t play BL3, pretty much.
- Comment on Comparison between graphics modes in Space Quest III 4 months ago:
Oh dear, yes, SVGA! I had forgotten about that one, hahaha!
- Comment on Comparison between graphics modes in Space Quest III 4 months ago:
VGA let’s you pick a palette of 256 colours out of 262144, which is because the RGB components were actually on 6bit, not the full 8bit we would come to expect later. The 320x200 resolution would also be a sore point for artists and that’s how you ended with quite a few games sticking to the EGA palette and using dithering to simulate more colours while using a superior resolution (640x480, or was it 800x600?). I’ve some vivid memories of Cobra Mission for example, or the Commander Keen saga.
- Comment on Comparison between graphics modes in Space Quest III 4 months ago:
Hercules used to play in 720 x 400 or thereabouts.
And that CGA palette looks wrong to me, haha. All the games I ever saw were either cyan magenta black and white, or black red green yellow. First time I see a mix like this.
