NOT cute!  NOT kawaii!

Coco survived unharmed - his mom grounded (as it were) him  - which he was not happy with.  I suspect the rescuer goes up and down poles all the time.

I know cats allegedly land on their feet but to paraphrase a famous Jewish carpenter (who actually worked with stone, not wood as there's hardly any trees in the Israeli area), thou shalt NEVER put the cat's landing on their feet to the test!  Even in what may very well be the first ever cat video, the cat is dropped from only 5-6 feet and there's plenty of cushioning to land on.

It's not Rocky the flying squirrel - it's Coco the flying cat!

Oh kitty was okay I hope...poor kitty...   Let's just hope that guy didn't end up stuck instead!

Never seen it.

My wife introduced me to the Die Hard series (just as she did for Star Trek and Gomer Pyle and...) and I think it's cool that the first two movies have Officer Carl Winslow before he was...well...Officer Carl Winslow!

You know how the Famicom cartridges come in different colors?  Did they actually mean anything?  Like did one color represent this kind of game and another color represented this other kind of game and so on?

If you mean "final level" as in the main story mode (whatever the right term is) then of course not.  You gotta have super secret bonus levels/dungeons and/or superbosses and whatnot!  How else are you supposed to know if you're truly a Royal Crown [insert name of game] Master?  (that is, if the game is not on PS3/PS4 and you can't platinum it)

@Sumez -- Why do you think this is sad?

Would this count as predicting video games?

It's pretty widely known (in our niche of a niche) that the SOQ effectively says "we paid a fee to get access to publish on the platform." It didn't mean the item is necessarily well made, it just meant the cartridge had the proprietary chip info to not blank out.

The one accessory I don't really get is the "Speedboard"...from the way you're supposed to use the controller with it, it looks more like a slowboard!

Just tell me now if she's like a war criminal or something.

No I don't think she was a very controversial judge as far as this sort of thing goes...if anything she was often the "swing vote".  I think she was also the first female justice to swear in a Vice President (1989).

We do in fact that a thread dedicated to man's REAL best friend!  My very very very FAVORITE out of all of God's creatures! 

I think there might have been a thread too for that silly other species too...

How far would you take this?

If you're asking what I think you're asking then yeah, it'd be one thing if it was some serial killer/rapist or some brutal authoritarian dictator or something but I don't like when people show such flagrant disrespect for someone who died just because their views/opinions don't exactly line up.

Aha at first I had no idea what that JPG compressed gibberish photo even was but after looking it up I think I know what it represents. However I think if anyone disrespects you after you die and even blows up your grave to pieces I bet you will still not care because after all you are.......dead

Yeah I guess the dead person personally would be in no position to complain but his/her friends/loved ones OTOH...

Yeah some people don't know how to show respect for the deceased.  No matter how much someone might disagree with someone or have views/opinions a little different the dude does leave behind a wife, a son, a daughter, and five grandchildren.

I mean how would the rest of you like it if this is how you were treated after you died?

I'm sure everyone in Taiwan loves Kissinger.

Well they might like him but they don't love him.  Now if he was kin folk they might love him...

The best jokes are always the awkwardly recycled ones. 

What "joke"?  I don't want any cheap third party crap!  Especially memory cards!

Wow, look at how smart kitties are!  Notice how none of them are running around chasing their own butt like some from that other species...

Sony has been doing it for a couple of console generations now, and gotten away with it just fine

But do they have the Official Sony Playstation Seal of Quality on their games, controllers, and accessories?  So that we can be guaranteed quality and full compatibility with our Sony products?

The real question is, does Microsoft offer the Official Microsoft Xbox Seal of Quality on its games, controllers, and accessories?  After all, who wants some junk third party crap that have not been approved by Microsoft and does not meet their standards in excellence in workmanship, reliability, and most of all, entertainment value?

From what I have learned about peoples diets on this site - y’all need less French fries hahahaha

Hey I want my money's worth on my Freedom Fries!

I always put lots of salt on my burgers/fries!  My late wife kinda nagged at me for being such a saltaholic but oh well...
