Honestly, a lot of first party GameCube games have aged incredibly well. Mario Party, Wind Waker, Warioware, Smash, Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion etc. all still look fantastic today, resolution aside.

I'm never sure when it comes to America, but I'd love to move there. Like us Aussies with dropbears and Americans, I was totally convinced by your post haha.

I've always wanted to visit a Bucky's! We've got nothing like it here, so it'd be a genuine experience.

For me it's usually only after they've died. They have this bitter, extremely unpleasant acidic smell to them.

ngl the fact you can buy alcohol and ammunition at the gas station over there is making me jealous af. We legally have to have entire separate stores for those things, no exaggeration.

It's wild how different the refueling process is between our countries. Paying at the pump was trialed here about 10 years ago, but next to nobody used it. We just rock up to the servo, pump our fuel, then walk inside to pay. I can't see it changing anytime soon. Some rural, more crime-ridden areas require pre-pay, as well as a few locations in urban areas between 11pm and 5am, but even then, you still walk inside or up to a window on the actual building to pay.

"You're not sad. Now consume, peasants. Consume and never stop. You don't WANT to be sad, do you?"

No shit, I saw fucking Afterpay available for petrol at the pump the other week. I'm Australian, so I'm unsure if this 'buy now, pay later' shit is available for gas over in the States, but it was certainly a shock to see here.

I've always been able to smell them. I can't believe there are people out there who can't. My world has been rocked.

Toyota really weren't fucking around with the Crown Hybrids back then. They threw everything into them. It also has soft close doors and trunk, TV/DVD, factory Bluetooth audio, heated/cooled front and rear seats, reclining rear seats, lane keep assist, night vision front and fender/rear cameras, keyless everything, and a heap more.

I fucking love the Toyota Crown.

I drive a 2009 Crown Hybrid. It's fast, it's reliable, it's great on fuel, it's luxurious, the build quality is extremely high, and on top of that, it didn't cost much. I can't see what a new car could offer me other than touchscreens, mandatory data collection, and a heap of tech I'll never use more than once. Mine has radar cruise, that's as advanced as I need a feature to be tbh

Magnesium threonate cured my insomnia, it's fucking wild how well it works. I'd tried everything until I discovered it, from melatonin, to antihistamine sleeping pills, all the way to downing 350ml of whiskey every night just to force sleep.

Magnesium works better than every single thing I've tried (but you HAVE to let yourself fall asleep when you feel it starting to work.)

I hate how long it took me to realize this was an Onion article.
