u know that thing where an animals grow in a far off place and some idiot introduces him to a new habitat and it turns out its characteristics that help them in their own sometimes are too helpful in the new one and they become like an invasive species yeah thats the word i was missing anyway back to my point i think i saw a human version of that just now i was driving in tonights snow storm and i saw a man wearing a big ass cowboy hat to keep the snow off him and a bandit red bandana to keep it off his face and a big ass pancho to keep him warm and nice ass cowboy boots to keep his calves dry and he was prancing along while everyone on the road looked miserable and frozen solid and idk i guess the point im trying to make here is i feel like cowboys would have taken over russia if given the chance or something
“Cowboys could be an invasive species” is an extremely hot take I wasn’t prepared for
Today, one of my second graders was working on shape name recognition, and we got to this picture of a pyramid shape with a wide-ish base. When he saw it, his eyes lit up and he turned to me with a huge grin on his face, pointed at it, and said "When the teacher forgets to assign homework" before bursting out into hysterics, covering his mouth and giggling.
I don't understand what happened except this kid CLEARLY knows about the strong comedic and memeable value of mathematical shapes and emotions that I, an old millennial, cannot comprehend
I did, however, try to recreate this moment as the meme this child must have seen in his head
i have seen this gif with that exact caption before. this is absolutely the one he was thinking of
That kid saw one of the simplest geometric shapes and said that's blorbo from my memes 👍
"Here, this character has every disease" is how you invite audience sympathy.
"Here, this character has every disease, yet is capable of unfathomable violence" is how you invite audience identification.
Hotel Mario was one of the Philips CD-i games that may not be quite as bad as the Legend of Zelda ones, but holy shit... can you imagine being on the team working on that game and somehow you made something so comparatively bad that you got fired and shit talked afterwards?
Like the team that was actively working on this:
decided that you and your ideas were shit.
The development company that made Princess Peach look like this said you weren’t shit.
Hotel Mario sucked because they bullied the Cheese Hotel guy off the team.
