My underwear. Oh wait, they replaced it with a pair that has a hole ripped in it. God damn you, OpenAI.

Thank you for your service.

That was the intention even if I didn’t ask that directly. People try to act cool by pretending that they they’re familiar with something „classic” and to anyone who played old Fallout games it was plain obvious that they didn’t. I didn’t expect people to dogpile on me though.

To me this kind of rewriting history is really bothersome. What if someone didn’t like Bethesda Fallout games but since everyone says it was always like that they won’t ever give those old games a try?

Goodbye. Apologies for the pedantry, I suspect restricted thinking patterns that don’t allow me to compromise on what is true might be part of the autism thing.

Seems like you agree with me that Fallout wasn’t drowning in pop culture references in the beginning. Why the sarcasm?

I’m horrified that you’re using Piefed for work.

Have you considered using Piefed client that has „mark all as read” button or „mark as read on scroll” features? Voyager does this, I’m pretty sure many others do. Another approach is to browse content sorted by new. In such setup all you need to know is if content is above or below your scrolling position. Hopefully these can make your work less tedious.

Thank you for creating this meta meta content. I hope it inspires new generations to become jaded old people.

Six Feet Under, season 4. Spoilers for a 20 year old show ahead. Me and my girlfriend were mightily confused as to sex scenes with Brenda. Sometimes it appears that she’s been having sex for 3 episodes straight and it might have even been the same act. Thankfully other plot lines stopped being so miserable and the show is actually funny again sometimes.

[edit] Oh god, David getting kidnapped by a hitchhiker episode is some kind of awfully written and acted nightmare fuel for LA housewives.

Up next: Widows’s Bay, Silo S3, Ludwig

This looks very interesting, haven’t heard of it before. I love British comedy and my partner loves British detective shows so it looks we have one more show in our queue now. I’ll just have to stop thinking of Cheesoid whenever I see David Mitchell.

I rarely go to the cinema these days on the account of cinema seats being incompatible with my back pain. Last comedy I saw was Naked Gun because it’s short and I thought it was one of those movies where real life laugh track improves on the experience. It’s a kind of movie you have to watch either in cinema, on VHS, or some random cable channel at 2AM.

That’s not exactly a long list there.

Have you actually played Fallout 1?

Fallout 1 was Mad Max type of goofy. Fallout 2 started sprinkling pop culture references everywhere. There’s a big difference in humour between them.
