Yup, it can add some nice colour, but besides that there isn't much point. Thanks for the celery validation.

Raw celery. Most people seem to say it has no flavour. To me it smells and tastes similar to vodka and makes me sick to even think about. It's also kinda squeaky on the teeth which is unacceptable. Cooked in a soup or whatever is fine.

Cabbage rolls. Specifically that combination of ingredients has made me sick by smelling it in the past, though it's not as bad now as an adult, and they do taste good. Cooked/boiled cabbage in any other context never bothered me.

Pickled onions. I love onions and can eat them raw, but I couldn't even finish one mini pickled one due to the resemblance to stomach acid, taste and smell.

Long story short, the "!" version will take the person clicking the link to their home instance's version of that community, keeping them logged in and able to subscribe/interact. It's much nicer to deal with sharing communities that way.

There was another game that came out the same year (2017) called A Hat in Time. I recommend checking that out if you're even lukewarm on 3D platformers.

What is this weird feeling that I’m feeling?

Appreciation, maybe? There were books before the internet, but I think it's no contest that the internet is the best resource for information that has ever existed. Pre-internet people didn't have FOMO because they didn't know what was coming.

FWIW I don't think it's weird at all to feel that way. I grew up when the internet became accessible to everyone, and I would not want to go back to before then despite the new problems it poses.

Thank you. I'm a mega-loner hermit and where I'm going is a very small town. If there's a place for me in the community there I'll give it a shot, but even if not, I still think I'll be a lot better off than I am now.

Moving far away from the place I have lived almost my entire life. Like you said, it's hard to see much of a future - there isn't one here for me. It's unaffordable, I hate most of the neighbours, and I'm paying rent at twice the cost of a mortgage payment. A renoviction would make me homeless. Fuck that and fuck this city, I'm out this summer.

There were some good times in it for sure. If I was a kid and experienced it like SM64 and Banjo Kazooie I'm sure I'd rate it higher than 6/10 and have less complaints. Overall it just feels tedious in comparison to those classics despite having a really cool moveset. Like I mentioned, I'd rather they made a new game than remake this, I'll still play new games they put out.

You must be fun at pizza parties

Leek and potato soup, or cream thereof?

The implicit desperation makes it cringe.

That's also what sells it imo
