@maple ah, right:

The original was "Verde e Amarelo" by Roberto Carlos, changed to "Eén kopje koffie" by VOF de Kunst, before getting an english translation as "One Cup of Coffee" performed by Paul Shaffer.

...I probably should've just posted the text file I wrote as a bunch of toots instead. :blobtongue:

@maple a short version: notable brazilian musician makes pop song about the country's flag and people, dutch people rewrite song to be about coffee instead, somebody gets it translated into english.

@ruxnor no no, it's something more complicated than that.

what to do when you find some stupid bit of musical trivia that involves a mid-80s song from Brazil that got the lyrics changed by a Dutch band, then got translated into English...

This is what my stupid trivia-riddled brain likes to do a lot. :blobupsidedown:

Framerates in games 

Watching a video of someone playing Sonic CD in super fast speed reminded me of a video I saw of someone complaining about a Need for Speed title being locked to 30fps on PC.

I'm okay with capped framerates, going beyond your monitor's refresh rate seems unnecessary to me. :blobtongue:

@KitRedgrave@cybre.space awesome.

Naturally your character's super-cute, as always ❤️

@Xkeeper never got why the hell people jack up the prices on repros like that.

Retro game cons are *especially* egregious for that shit.

@KS yep, just loud and obnoxious to the point where you wanna turn it off. :P

A person I follow on birdsite is wearing a shirt that's like Mae's from Night in the Woods and that makes me want to play Night in the Woods.

Boost if you see your kink:

Girls
Holding hands with girls
Being gay for girls
Obsessively talking about girls
Cuddling girls
Thinking about girls
Gorls
Grrls
Enby girls

Nobody will know which one!

I love my fairly cheapo headset because the audio quality's nice, but I hate how one side likes to jostle something around whenever I turn my head slightly.

It's *not* a pleasant sound.

Wish it wasn't late because I now got the itch to write about stuff. :(
