Wasn't that @chrisremo.bsky.social when he was at Gamasutra?

(or was that another slow image manipulation gag?)

The old Colbert logo had me thinking you were in some Castlevania FMV game I never had heard of.

Now I wish that existed.

Dan, I am angry that there are so few people I can send this to. It's perfect.

I remember the 3D prints people did of theirs after you made this.

I mean, all the Quakeholio/Shugashack/Shacknews folks still hang out (though we moved to Discord after the new owner decided that there'd be no more political talk on his Shacknews a year or so ago)

The big question: can one use Slurp Juice on a Nobel Prize?

100% read it as "glorious batard"

It really, really is a big part of the job isn't it? Treating "I don't get it" as a useful signal that perhaps something needs to be discussed and not a personal or professional failing (for either party).

Which of course led to me asking a lotttt of "dumb" or seemingly "out of touch" questions

man, I read this as "ambien anger"

I mean, we both _could_. Let's bring back the skullet!

(Well, maybe not bring *back*, not sure that was ever here)

It took me an upsettingly long time to figure out just what was "different" in this picture.

"Oh he grew his hair out!"

And if they're saying if I don't I can't "get that bag" - the bag in question simply must be a 10 Sack from White Castle in Metuchen, NJ

Exactly my first thought ๐Ÿ˜…

Ha! The Dutch language school I went to gave us buttons that said a similar (IIRC) "Spreek Nederlands tegen me. Ik proberen te leren"

"Speak Dutch to me, I am trying to learn"

Since everyone just switches to English at the first hitch in your language.

Your pin is waaaay nicer looking. :D

hahaha - just read something and had the same response

hahah - and here I am knocking solid.

Toss some solid ones in there, and fuck it, a few completely hollow. Never let them know your next move.

Filled. Solid is always so disappointing to me with something like this. I like the surprise of it all.

The malt reply is good. Or something like pistachio cream, hazelnut cream, etc would be ace.
