Today, my cousin brought over the FF15 demo because he bought FF Type 0.  FF15 is so awesome!  I can't wait for the full game! I also got eaten by a giant monster in game but it was worth it.

When employers who pay minimum wage expect loyalty and/or dedication from their employees. Are you freaking kidding me? You're making a point to pay someone the absolute lowest you legally can and you really expect them to show any dedication to the company? You're not showing that you value them in any way, so what reason do they have to be loyal to you? They don't. Loyalty is a two way street, fatcat.

It's one thing to be paid 8 or 9 bucks an hour; I worked for about that much for several years, but being paid exactly minimum wage is a whole different level of demeaning. It's practically your employer telling you "I'd pay you less if I could."

That's one of the problems with the world today. Employees lack loyalty and so do companies. Back in the old days my uncle mentioned you weren't just a sales figure to the company but now that's all you are. Then there are teenagers nowadays who just up and quit a job because they dislike it even if they're paid higher than minimum wage. It's a job it's not meant to be fun. Employees lack work ethic and employers lack loyalty. Both are self destructive to the job rates.

You know that state of anger and disappointment where you are, for some reason, smiling, like an anime character?
You know that state of anger where your voice, for some reason, goes higher in pitch?
You know that state of anger where you aren't yelling, just speaking at a normal level but it's still pretty obvious how angry you are?
You just sit there, shaking your head, smiling, and saying "I'm gonna kill them. I'm gonna kill them all."

That's me right now. That's me.

I just found out... next Thursday's episode of Steven Universe... is an Uncle Grandpa crossover.
Yeah.
Who thought this was acceptable? Who thought this was a good idea? Did they bribe or threaten Rebecca into doing this? Whoever is responsible for this... I really hate them right now. This is horrible. It's garbage. I hate Uncle Grandpa, and that show really does not belong in Steven Universe.

I really hope that the episode has little to nothing to do with the canon. I swear. I hope it'll be something you can just skip altogether with no repercussions, considering how much the Steven Universe episodes foreshadow things and carry over in the overarching plot.

This is disgusting.

I can't stand Uncle Grandpa either. Every time I see the commercials for it my brain crashes. Some shows are just getting too random and strange, to the point of making you wonder how it affects the kids who watch it. I miss the old cartoons which at least had stories mixed in with the comedy. I still watch Scooby Doo Where Are You? My nephew liked that better than most new cartoons.

Even Regular Show is more sane than Uncle Grandpa, Regular Show also has an underlying story now and then.

I don't remember that from Starforce. Was that like a secret form or something?

It's Starforce 3's Black Ace Finalized Form. if you get 200% noise or higher in a battle you can access the meteor server which noise changes you into Black Ace or Red Joker. Starforce 3 is my favorite of the Starforce series with 2 being 2nd. Red Joker can use dread laser which blasts a giant laser across the field. Black Ace uses the Meteor Light which drops a bunch of meteors all over the enemy field. at 100% Noise neither players, bosses, or viruses are safe as recoil is disabled allowing each meteor to hit them all at once. Dread Laser is even worse standing in the beam is a multi hit combo on the enemy.

I was able to see Black Ace's ultimate attack Meteor Light.  Starforce did really great on the ultimate attacks for each form.

It has been awhile since I last tested a few more things on this. I was capable of running Metal Gear Solid V GZ at much higher FPS than when I was on Windows 7, on Windows 7 I had everything set to medium due to lag. on Windows 10 most options are on High and it's running great. once I install fraps or something I'll edit the first post so I can have a better estimate on the FPS values.

There's this place in my town called Sodalicious. And it's basically a place where you get soda, but you can ask for extra flavors to be added, or you can just pick one of the predefined mixtures that you just find appetizing. So I order a Mountain Dew with peach, mango, pineapple, and strawberry added...
BEST. DRINK. I'VE. TASTED.

You should give Berry Dr Pepper a try if they have Dr Pepper there and a berry flavor.

That, and our snow is literally different from the snow northerners get.

Northerners get a soft, almost dry powder that is actually fairly safe to walk and drive on, as long as not too much has piled up.
Us, though? We get wet snow. Wet snow means ice. When it snows here, not only do the roads get covered in snow, they get covered in ice.

Northerners get wet snow as well it isn't always powder. That all depends on the condition of the storm and temperature, and if they get direct sunlight after that or not as ice can be caused by the sun melting the snow then it re-freezing as ice instead of snow. It also depends on the type of snowstorm they get. We get wet and powdery snow in Missouri. We also went 7-8 days without power once when an ice storm hit. Texas doesn't have to deal with long lasting ice storms that keep the lines frozen for a week straight stuff generally melts faster there than Missouri. The north also has its problems as well now and then.

You'd think people in Missouri would learn how to treat snow as well since we get all types of storms pretty much. But people here forget how to drive in rain and snow. We also close schools which doesn't really bother me much.




Someone tried to trick me on Runescape by saying "Hey want 100k?" because I was using a new character. I simply responded by saying. "Dude I've been playing RS since it was 2d don't even try that on me." I was near the PVP zone as well where you can defeat players for their items. It was funny and annoying at the same time.

Been playing Megaman Starforce 2 Zerker x Ninja I finally got to a point where I can see the rest of the story last time I got stuck in some stupid desert area and I couldn't find where I was supposed to go. I'm also going to replay Starforce 3 after this. I also have double tribe now.

I took it as "Twilight, since you're the element of magic, you're the only one who can quickly learn how to control the magic of four alicorns" not "Twilight, since you're the element of magic, you're the only one who can be super powerful when filled with the magic of four alicorns."

Oh, most of the stuff I'm talking about is based on the Journal, which talks about how even alicorns have to train to use their abilities and it also had Starswirl studying their magical nature. Also how Starswirl knew Twilight was going to be the element of magic before she was born. I don't think he ever told Luna or Celestia which pony it would be though.

Which technically Starswirl the bearded was more powerful than Celestia or Luna. So Unicorns can be just as strong it seems. The difference between alicorns and unicorns is, unicorns can end up losing all of their magic if they don't let it recharge. Where as alicorns regenerate magic much quicker and aren't endanger of something like that happening. For instance when one Unicorn moves the sun and moon by itself it lost all of its magic. Where as an alicorn just regenerated it. This is all based on the Journal of the two sisters though which is the only thing that actually covered possible abilities of alicorns and how they were naturally born like every other pony in the past. Anyways Unicorns can achieve the same feats as alicorns aside from Zecora's plot device potion. Some people say the book is canon others say it isn't so unless one of the writers says so we have no idea, all we know is some of the show writers worked on the book and since it directly relates to the book in the show I'm leaning more towards the book.

If the season 4 finale taught us anything, it's that the magic of a single alicorn is as powerful as the magic of approximately 1/4 of Equestria's population plus 1/4 of Discord's magic.

As long as a RPer doesn't take advantage of how powerful alicorns can be, I'm alright with it. It's also appreciated if they give their alicorn OC some well-written personality and backstory.

That was Twilight the element of magic absorbing all of the princesses magic. Only Twilight is the element of magic. Only Twilight is capable of such a feat the others are not. Twilight has already mastered magic so obviously she would be powerful. As long as someone's OC wasn't the element of magic then they wouldn't be anywhere near as strong. in the journal of the two sister's it has also mentioned Twilight before she was born as the element of magic. It's also why I mentioned what if the OC wasn't even good at magic and had some other talent alicorns are not inherently powerful they have to learn how to use their abilities like Unicorn's do.

Yes.

You've just judged every alicorn OC in existence without knowing anything about all of them or if their design was artistically chosen or not, or whether they made them some all powerful being or not. 


Anywho.

Just because someone makes an alicorn OC it doesn't mean their OC is overpowered or a Mary Sue, by definition a Mary Sue is a character perfect in every way and aspect. Just because somepony has flying and magic that does not make them OP or perfect. The simple reason being it's all in the character development. For instance what if that alicorn OC was never special with their magic what if their magic just consisted of levitation and basic unicorn ability while their real talent was flying or some other skill unrelated to their race.

Twilight wasn't already powerful she had to train and take classes so that her magic would improve it took her being scared to even go into super nova mode because she had no ability to control it until she took lessons and trained. A Mary Sue is a character who never fails and succeeds at everything where even the villains and good guys all fall in love with them.

And some people choose an alicorn because it looks nice, the ones who make the red and black all powerful OC's are usually just kids who don't know how to design characters yet, it happens in every fandom from DBZ to Mario to Sonic to Megaman.


Characterization is more important than how the character looks, character development is more important than how the character looks, background story is more important than how the character looks. Looks are secondary when making good characters. The dislike for alicorn OC's in this fandom gets kinda old after awhile.

But if the journal of the two sisters is any merit its history on alicorns is that they're a race with very few members left Luna and Celestia were some of the few natural born alicorns according to that not some ascended all powerful beings the fandom likes to make them out to be. Granted the journal of the two sisters was officially written by the writers of the show but they have neither claimed it to be non canon or canon. In the diary Luna and Celestia also had to train their magic. They didn't start as an all powerful character even they had trouble. They also had to win over the 3 races so that they would be willing to accept them as guardians of their nation. Natural born alicorns are long lived according to that book which is why Celestia and Luna are still young after all those years.

I've played it quite a bit, It's a pretty fun action adventure game that allows you to mix and match your own spells kinda like alchemy which can create pretty awesome effects. I also like how even though it's a demo the world is rather big for the first map and even has a few unique monsters as well.

It kinda reminds me of Jak and Daxter gameplay wise. Hopefully they'll finish it I think it's also going to have a story if I'm correct.
