...big top burger is absolutely friggin wild and i goddamn love it god

In 1993 Infogrames rushed the release of Alone in the Dark 2, and as a result it came out in a near unplayable state. And then instead of rebalancing it they included a teleport that skipped the entire first part of the game in the CD-ROM version, and threw in this "SECRET DOORS" disk with later floppy releases.
So what was on that floppy? Well, it turns out that it's nothing but a six sets of saved games. It's not even noted which parts of the game they lead to! Remember: $9.95 value!

(I'll be honest if this isn't a vine or tiktok already I will be VERY surprised because this joke is like... friggin out there in the open ready to use, surely.)

What if we put Megaman's head on top of Dmitri Maximov's body! 

It'd look something... like this!

"We've been driving for a while, where's this place we're going to?"
" o/' IT'S COMING UP, IT'S COMING UP, IT'S COMING UP

IT'S THERE *points* o/'
*bombass music*

(I will say though that doing ten rolls on the character and item gatcha things is... doable with free resources. Like I've been playing it for a couple of days now? and saving up the 2700 free gems from just completing challenges and events adn story missions has been ridiculously easy to the point I've done a total of two of these things now already... Paying money is absolutely not required it seems, so far.)

Okay so managed to stumble across a mobile game called Guardian Tales and...

...it's really good????

It's got those gatcha mechanics similar to Arknights, and of course microtransactions, but no adverts at all (same as Arknights) and if it weren't for the microtransactions and character and equipment gatcha thing, it would be quite at home on a PC or console release as a fun little action RPG puzzler thing. It's kinda adorable, and lots of fun, though blimey does it eat battery.

covid mood, bit of humor 

this picture on the door of one of the faculty Kurt supports got posted to reddit

and a user asked why everyone is so pessimistic, and someone just responded "pandemic"

and friends, you are definitely allowed to just respond "pandemic" when absolutely anyone tries to question your attitude, or mood, or current relationship to :sundae:

Software rec request, money 

Anyone know of any program or app that can be used to keep track of personal finances? I'm thinking specifically for small, common expenses, like weekly groceries and such

I'd like to be able to spot where I may be spending more than I need to

So I heard a mewing trill behind me after a sort of clattering noise, turned around, and saw this.

She mewed at me when I petted her to tell her she was a good girl. <3<3<3

this culminates in one of the final lines of the song;
"oh well, maybe not, I'll try again.
This should cheer you up for sure.
See, I found your old ID,
and you're all dressed up like The Cure"

the song pauses for a beat moment there, as if everyone is too stunned to react, then the final chorus continues into its finale, and it feels as if that's when everyone just bursts the fuck out laughing, and the fascade is broken utterly, and everyone's having a great time without faking disinterest.

The Ballad of Who Could Care Less by the Ben Folds Five is an interesting song that seems to be about a group of friends who are largely disaffected "too cool to give a shit" edgey types trying to out cool each other and it's sung from the point of view of their 'junior member' as it were who's hugely enthusiastic about them and is really stoked to be a friend of theirs, but somehow doesn't get the "too cool to care" vibe, and just wants to make them laugh through various means
