    The only problem with it is that it's a bit too good for someone like Infinite.
    Lliterally everyone I know, including myself, felt that song was edgelord trash in the BEST WAY possible. Like, don't get me wrong; there are definitely people who looked at it and rolled their eyes, but those people dislike ALL sonic music because it's all like this. Me and everyone else I know loved the song for how wonderfully stupid it is.

    And also agreed that "slightly pissed off wolf boy" is not even remotely worthy of said song.

    I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be a jackal. f course who the hell can tell with sonic characters, they all look the godamned same.

    I also like the song that Eminem did for the 2018 Venom movie's soundtrack.

    Which is just the stupidest fricking.... It's not even about Venom, he's saying that his music is an infection that gets into you, makes you feel good, but also kind of corrupts you, that he's ruined your parents lives, that's he's a supervillain from the nineties, and then just flat out says that "Eddie Brock is you and I'm the suit." It's so stupid but it's so catchy.

    I mean he didn't make it for the movie, it's just a song where he coincidentally refers to Venom. Like, I'm pretty sure on that.

    It was released prior to the movie, but it was written for the Movie's soundtrack(it plays during the credits) but was ultimately was not included when the soundtrack was released as an album. Which does make sense, it was released separately as both a single and part of an album and is tonally rather different from the rest of the score

    The name of the song is literally "Venom (Music from the Motion Picture)" and the music video uses footage from the move

    Wait.

    There's more than six Sonic games? I always thought that the break between Adventure 2 and Mania was a bit long.

    The really interesting thing is that when you strip away the minute of jibberish and the boasting, it's clear that Eminem has a decent enough understanding of how symbiotes work.

    Yeah, bonding to one does make you feel good. It inherently ramps up all of your emotions to a degree, makes you stronger, faster, tougher, healthier... It also opens you up to being controlled or corrupted. An unscrupulous symbiote can rewrite your memories and screw with your body so that you'll die without a symbiote. Or think you will, at least.

    (Of course, that's a two-way street. An incompatible, malevolent, or mentally ill host can corrupt the symbiote. Venom was initially a supervillain because Eddie's anger and depression and the symbiote's pain and confusion at being rejected by Spider-Man fed into each other and essentially drove them both insane.)

    They also don't bond to any one part of you but get into every part of you, getting into your cells and hiding traces of themselves between the rungs of DNA in your nucleus and mitochondria, which is also alluded to. Once one's been in you, there's pieces of it in you forever.

    If it's any consolation, I remember only the one where you run right and collect rings.

    I think it also contained a improbable flying squirrel and some red animal.

    Didn't make much impression, most probably because my cousin also had Contra. Liked the squirrel though.

    To be fair, my first Sonic game was Sonic Advance, so I'm being silly. Second was Shadow the Hedgehog, which wasn't that terrible a game but not that great.

    I do love Sonic games, but gah they're not made for people with my level of coordination. But I',m also that weirdo who never played a Mario game until his 20s. Somnic, however, is enjouyable whenever the controls are reduced to left/right/jump.

    I also love playing as Mighty in Sonic Mania, just because of that hard shell.

    A hard shell is always useful in an emergency or adventure.

    Unless mobility is key and it slows you down or limits your agility. Then it might be a liability.

    I like the H.R. Giger school of creature design. Not the subtle and not-so-subtle sexual imagery in the monsters, but the "elegant organic machines designed specifically for the purpose for which they're serving" look you see on say, a Xenomorph. And the shiny, sleek dark colors.

    I did a good deed today. I help an elder woman pick up her shopping cart over the turn style at the subway station today. She thanked me and she told me that she was relying on strangers to help her all day today. It feels so good to help people during this difficult time.

    Reddit thread: What are your cagey parenting tricks?

    Responders: Some of it is okay, gen8ius even(using old workboots and fireplace soot to leave footprints from the fireplace to the Christmas tree and back to sell the "Santa Claus" story) but other examples are excessively manipulative(lying to your children about what their fortune cookie says so they don't question you) or are just flat out abusive(promising your children a brand new desert and then giving them empty bowls while telling them it's their fault for not looking up the name of the desert he told them in the dictionary)

    Tonight for dinner we made up some chunks of boneless chicken meat with chicken breading branded from one restaurant known for it's hot wings(among other things) and a garlic parmesan sauce branded from a separate restaurant specializing in hotwings.

    I think using ingredients branded by two separate Hot Wing restaurants is some kind of sacrilege but it turned out okay.

    For people who have never had garlic parmesan wings... In my experience the brand doesn't matter, the sauce is good, but it's always strong. Lot of garlic, lot of complimentary spices that go well with garlic.

    I tell you, I ain't having sinus problems tonight.

    There are several pronunciations for both. Same for French, though your alternate pronunciations tend towards "silent".

    ETA: Quick and dirty example, you pronounce "i" as "ah" in "moi".

    Yes. I'm not going to be human anymore and I'm going to transform into a Pokemon. But I don't think being a Pokemon isn't as terrible as you might think.

    No, you're thinking of Pokemonella. Common mistake. Pokemonitis does not turn you into a Pokemon. And that's what your doctor diagnosed you with.

    I wasn't clear. The way English speakers pronounce "e" is the way evry other language using this alphabet that I am aware of (and that includes german, so it's not a germanic/romance thing) pronounces the letter "i".

    I meant in isolation, as in "a, e, i, o, u" or "a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z".

    I know that letters can change pronounciation dpending on the rest of the word (like in the diphtong you gave in example) or because of etymology, that's not what I meant.

    So, it turns out you guys used to do like everybody else until you stopped and there's no consensus why.

    So... the names of the letters? Like I said earlier?

    I use braces (also known as "curly brackets") to indicate sarcasm. If there are none present, I probably believe what I am saying; should it turn out to be inaccurate trivia, please tell me rather than trying to play along with an apparent joke I don't know I'm making.

    That's just how pronunciation drifted in this part of the world.

    Is it weird that I find learning about ways the Earth could be destroyed and the science behind how that would work relaxing?

    Been looking into lab tech jobs, and like with software testing it looks like the main thing I'm missing (besides 'is my degree in this lab's field) is experience as a lab tech.

    I hate this kind of job.
