In an episode of Happy Days, The Fonz goes water skiing, encounters a shark, and jumps over it in the water skis. It marked a moment of dramatic decline in the show's overall quality, and the term has been used since for any such point in time where something is identifiably worse after a specific event.

It was Mick Foley making fun of The Rock, which was way more fun for me.

You have identified the word within the box. Glory unto your house!

I have no idea what that trailer was about, so that tracks with FromSoft, and I love them for it, and I will be playing this. Probably after another base game playthrough

Deserving. There's a lot to be said about making way for new animation talent but Miyazaki put out one of his greatest movies with this one. It's beautiful and moving and I had to pee the entire time I saw it and didn't want to get up and miss anything

"Who called it the Guardian of Forever?"

"Well we don't know, actually. Academy scientists assume that it's some sort of life form that coalesced around the myriad beliefs of sentients regarding the understanding of time and adopted language to best fit their understanding."

"So it gave itself that nickname?"

"In a sense, yes."

"Like when me mate Paul had that ketamine and declared himself the Unstoppable Love God until the police wrestled him to the ground?"

"I... suppose you could say so."

I don't get it why would you staff a ship with a bunch of dilithium miners.

My wife has become an avid Switch gamer since we picked one up during COVID and she's been excited for this one. It also happens to come out on her birthday, which makes this a pretty easy win for me. I've been showing her reviews all morning to get her hyped.

I don't preorders as a rule but this one is sitting there ready to go for Friday. I had to cycle through a bunch of games to kick it off the home screen, so she currently thinks I just couldn't decide what to play yesterday.

I remember seeing this at a theater screening of Oscar nominated animated shorts. I'd done no research and wasn't expecting a Don Hertzfeldt entry. I loved it and it's since become one of my favorite modern sci fi movies. An older woman in the lobby was complaining about it afterwards and I still think it's funny how different pieces can speak to people in such wildly different ways.

Well I don't want to get all controversial about it but the thing about India is it's a country in South Asia with a land area of approximately 3.3 million square kilometers and a population of roughly 1.4 billion. And that might be a hot take, but also we have to keep in mind its primary exports are petroleum goods and textiles. Don't even get me started on how its borders are the Indian Ocean, the Arabian Sea, and the Bay of Bengal.

Amazing. You'd think something as big as a mammoth would need more blood than that
