Not a huge fan, but I do get Yorkshire Gold when I can find it, because it’s Patrick Stewart’s preferred tea IRL.

You know how there’s all those fuckin people who swear they were Napoleon or Cleopatra in a previous life? Something like that.

“I’ll have you know that Mr Mittens was a favorite bed cat of Charlemagne!”

Kathy Bates is a national treasure and doesn’t deserve that comparison.

“this asshole”

George Washington Lemon Fresca

Oh, and Die Hard 1 and 3 for something in between those extremes (2 is meh, fight me).

I gotta suggest Wayne’s World and Bill & Ted. Had a great time watching those with my dad as a kid.

For something more serious, I like Falling Down.

Sometimes if I take too big a gulp of water at once, the little bone near my adam’s apple clicks out of place and I have to manually reset it.

Wernher von Brown-noser

That doesn’t sound right, but I don’t know enough about stars to dispute it.

It’s really good. I think it’s on the PSN store now if you have a PS4/5. It’s a greek mythology-inspired take on the same gameplay, except it’s one large map that you unlock in bits kind of Metroidvania-style. Has this unique death mechanic where the first several deaths don’t count… if you can fight your way out of Hades.

Challenge accepted. Does anyone recognize Llamatron: 2112? I played it on Amiga, but I think it was also on Atari and DOS.

It was an acid trip “llamas are funny” parody of Robotron: 2084, and it was a fuckin’ BLAST!

Zombies Ate My Neighbors was a masterpiece. It had somewhat similar gameplay, graphics and humor to one of my other favorites that I’ve never seen mentioned - Herc’s Adventures on PSX. Not sure if they were the same studio or something?

Edit: So I looked it up, and yeah, both made by LucasArts within a few years, so likely the same team or at least a lot of crossover.

It’s a shame he ended up being such a turd. The Story of Everest sketch in Mr Show is a masterpiece of physical comedy.

There’s a few short fiction podcasts I like for bedtime stories:

• Myths & Legends
• Fictional
• LeVar Burton Reads
• The Magnus Archives

This is what Arby’s has been trying to tell us the whole time. We, all of us, have “The Meats”. Woe be upon us.

Day-Zee (the movie and video game)

This one is kind of fascinating to me, because even being from the US, I feel like Zed works better when it’s zombie-related. Probably both due to Shaun of the Dead (“Not using the Zed word!”), and because that makes it rhyme with “dead”.

Ah, so I’m guessing it wasn’t “Dragon Ball Zed” either, then.

I guess that makes sense, the Rush song doesn’t become YYZee in the US (mostly).

Bodacious!

You talking about a gremlin with glasses who could talk and sing New York, New York? That’s brilliant. It’s in the movie!
