- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 1 week ago:
Yes I think you’re right - there’s a lot of lead-up to christmas and it’s usually a time where you come together over a few days. Whereas NYE is one evening, and it doesn’t involve special food or presents etc. (just lots of booze)
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 1 week ago:
That’s a good point. I wonder if there are many songs dedicated to new year for people following those calendars?
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 1 week ago:
Ohh a good selection, thanks!
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 1 week ago:
Oh that’s interesting to hear! What new year’s songs do you know then?
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 1 week ago:
I’m from the UK. Whereabouts are you from, to have never heard a christmas song?
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 1 week ago:
That’s true, but you don’t really hear them being played once christmas is over
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 1 week ago:
Fireworks I guess?

- Comment on Had to look this up 5 weeks ago:
Oh that’s interesting! I hadn’t heard of that series, but I adored the Alex Rider books as a kid. Horowitz’s children’s books at least feel well written.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
I think Red Faction still does a better job of it, because it blends the destruction and physics into one system. i.e. buildings will topple the second they become unstable, rather than only becoming a physics object once they’re fully separated.

He should come back in an alternative universe as a 21-23 year old.

What? Some of the most well known and highly rated books are in the public domain.
- Comment on An eggy smell is horrible if it comes unexpectedly, but arguably pleasant if you're eating an egg mayo sandwich 2 months ago:
That’s a good point actually… whenever you see them in any UK supermarket it tends to just be egg mayo by itself (and always on brown bread for some reason). Or egg & cress like you say.
OR you might see an all day breakfast sandwich with egg mayo, sausage and bacon.
- Comment on An eggy smell is horrible if it comes unexpectedly, but arguably pleasant if you're eating an egg mayo sandwich 2 months ago:
One of these
In the UK at least, the filling is called egg mayonnaise. In the US/Canada it seems to be called egg salad

I’ve definitely been put off coleslaw after a spoiled portion at a Topgolf place gave me food poisoning

How exactly does this protect farmers? Are they going to have to be called veggie cylinders and fake-meat discs?

- Comment on Nobody who complains about video games costing more than $60 ever considers inflation 2 months ago:
This is definitely a controversial take, but maybe there’s some truth to it. (A price hike like $90 Mario Kart is way too much however). I think the issue here is that purchasing power has decreased for the majority of people over the last few years as inflation has increased whilst wages have not kept pace. And it really doesn’t help when triple A games increase their prices whilst releasing in a buggy state - people don’t see any benefit of a $10 increase to that game when it doesn’t offer $10 more value than it would have done a year prior.
Sure, corporations need to recoup the high cost of development - but then perhaps their costs wouldn’t be nearly as high if they didn’t pay millions to their CEOs. Indie devs can successfully put out (usually much more interesting and creative) games for a fraction of the cost.
- Comment on Final Fantasy 3 DS – 2006 Developer Interview - shmuplations.com 2 months ago:
The DS remake of FF3 was my first Final Fantasy game, and I remember loving it. The chibi artstyle was really appealing to me at the time. I’m pretty sure I managed to cheese one of the late game bosses by using a certain class (ninja?) that got me a lucky 9999 damage hit. After that point I was severely under levelled, and got stuck at the final dungeon with no way to back out.
I should replay it at some point! Or maybe the pixel remaster version (people seem to rate that higher?)
