in the extreme minority that hasn't watched star wars

Flowerchild May 6th, 2020 1:36 PM

star wars is aight

pkmin3033 May 6th, 2020 9:12 PM

Given the horrific nature of the prequels and especially the sequels - which are somehow worse - I don't know if it's a blessing to have never watched Star Wars or not.

Sothis May 6th, 2020 10:11 PM

Never seen the sequels, they haven't really pulled me in. I like Empire Strikes Back though.

I think it's more an experience you missed, rather than one you're missing now. You're missing out on absolutely nothing positive by not seeing the prequels or sequels because they're utter garbage.

Star Wars was a huge thing when I was a kid when the originals were re-released for the 20th anniversary, but watching the movies for the first time now I imagine they might feel dated, and without nostalgia or existing fondness for the franchise that's not a good thing. I mean, not saying the original trilogy isn't worth watching now or anything, but I can imagine that they might not seem as good now as they did back then. I mean, if you played the original FFVII now, you definitely wouldn't have the same kind of experience you might have had if you had played it when it was first released. Same sort of thing.

Guys, my sleep schedule has been totally off whack lately. There is a day or two I am up the full 24 hours, then the next two or three days sleep 85%-90% of the day. Sorry I haven't been on much. I'm sick, but NOT with Corona. I'm just mentally ill. My Dad is the only person now that's keeping me from mentally losing it. He and I are talking about my future a lot lately, though he is optimistic and smart, I just don't see it.

Oh, turns out we're NOT moving after the pandemic after all. It was all a misunderstanding, sadly enough.

Sheep May 7th, 2020 5:28 PM

oof D: all the best to you!! this whole mess really doesn't help mental health, it's been stressing us all out :( i hope you feel better soon!

pkmin3033 May 15th, 2020 10:52 PM

Happy Saturday, everyone~

This week has been an unimitigated hell. Work has been an absolute nightmare, I've been locked in mortal kombat with my scanner/printer (it's fatality was giving me a migraine...repeatedly) and my free time has been spent playing Final Fantasy VII Remake. Ugh.

13 days to go. Just 13 days...

Ys May 18th, 2020 6:59 PM

Quarantine has been an experience. There are good days and bad days, but mostly ok days. I hope everyone is doing well ^^

Caite-chan May 24th, 2020 12:47 AM

I've been all over the place lately mostly mentally. Had a bit of a panic attack yesterday that I've never experienced which I went to the hospital for and got a clean bill of health. Felt kinda silly later on in the day for it as I grew up on the whole you better have something seriously wrong or on the verge of dying before you go to the hospital.

The best thing though is I got my new laptop after coming home from the hospital and it was delivered 4 days early. :D The only issue was I wish I had gotten the bigger screen because I'm not use to having something so small.

Sami May 24th, 2020 5:53 AM

Quarantine has given me nothing but bad days, it's been an awful ride so far and I don't see it getting any better.

Kinda unfortunate I started my job a few weeks before the whole quarantine started.

Caite-chan May 24th, 2020 6:21 AM

I've been pretty lazy for most of it. We're not sure when we are going back to work. Some of us are still a bit nervous because we deal with the public.

Taemin May 27th, 2020 5:46 PM

I've been lazily watching more things on Netflix and playing more games...

In general, though, I'm over it and I want it goneeee.

That binge of She-Ra was p fun though.

Caite-chan May 27th, 2020 6:25 PM

I'm just tired of people throwing hissy fits over nothing. People should be lucky they aren't having to go through this like people did back in the day. I mean we have so much that we can do now that people didn't have back then.

Taemin May 27th, 2020 6:38 PM

Right? People are complaining that they have to follow rules and stay inside, but like... we have the luxury of following rules and staying inside. Not everyone does, and not everyone can. :(

Caite-chan May 27th, 2020 6:45 PM

It's just annoying how people make it all about them. I mean it can get boring at times but I haven't really had any issues about things. I understand that people want to go back to work and may need to but at the same time if we jump to fast we'll just have to do this ALLLLLLLL over again.

There it is, my exact thoughts on the matter.

People who're bored say it's so inconvenient for them, and I'm like I'm sorry you're inconvenience but at least you're alive???

I understand the people who don't have money incoming and have to work, but otherwise... oof.

ON A LIGHTER NOTE

I went to go finally buy a Switch and there's a 400 person waiting list at the chain where I have all my game credit....... I just want to play Pokemon Sword. sdfasd

Caite-chan May 29th, 2020 1:27 PM

I know a lot of people were wanting to get a Switch when Animal Crossing came out and you couldn't find any anywhere. It was crazy. I'd say order it online if you can you might get it quicker.

pkmin3033 May 29th, 2020 9:01 PM

I bought my Switch at launch because Nintendo like to deliberately understock their products in order to artificially inflate demand - as if this is somehow a better money-making strategy than just providing sufficient stock and generating actual profit - and I knew if I didn't then I'd probably be waiting until around January of the following year for one...coronavirus has made them painfully scarce now in some places, especially the Lite. Online is definitely your best bet right now. Lots of online sites have good deals and more reasonable prices, too. Good luck!

...the ironic thing is that I didn't touch my Switch until around October after I finished BOTW, and considering how awful that was I probably could have waited =/

Unfortunately, I have credit in that store chain so I only have to pay like $100 out of pocket for the system and a game. lol So sadly I don't have the money to buy it online at all the hyped up prices. ;w;

SMART MOVE, I was saving up for mine and could finally do it, but alas, COVID AND Nintendo ruin things again. Lmfao
