It's been a long while but IIRC in one of the early Metal Gear Solid games there was a baddie who would threaten to (and could) corrupt your save file, completely breaking the fourth wall in the process.
If you ever get to the Philippines give it a try! Ask for the “young” balut so it’s more like an egg and less like a baby duck.
No thanks!
I'm knocking on the door of 60. There's three things I don't like and one I wouldn't try.
I don't like broad beans (aka fava beans), Brussels sprouts, or peas. One of the best things about being an adult is being able to say 'No, thanks'. I try them again every few years, just to check. With peas and sprouts I still hate the taste horribly. Broad beans can taste alright but have to be properly prepared and cooked and it's just easier to say no because when they're not right they're the thing I dislike the most.
The one thing I wouldn't try would be balut. The idea just makes my skin crawl for some reason.
It was a very faithful adaptation of the book, though.
The ‘80s Conan the Barbarian film with Arnie.
Utterly awesome soundtrack by Basil Poledouris.
I consider myself lucky.
When my friends were first trying to persuade me to get into MtG I went to a LGS to get a starter pack.
A guy came in with a sports bag full of ‘his green swaps’ to see what price he could get for them.
That was the point where I realised I’d dip my toe in the water but this wasn’t going to be a serious hobby for me.
Well, strangling animals, golf and masturbating.
There are certain phrases or events which require a ritual response so that my children know all is correct with the world.
If anyone says "Cleopatra", it is vitally important that I immediately reply "Comin' atcha!"
If we see a police car, especially if it is running with lights and siren, I must say: "Oh, crikey, it's the rozzers!"
If we see an ambulance, it is vital that I declare "Ambulance!" forcefully in a bad Welsh accent.
These rituals, and others like them, keep the world spinning correctly on its axis.
Dunno. I've only ever converted to about 1400 of them tops.

Gonna need more apps.
Oh, Edmund, can it be true that I hold here in my mortal hand a nugget of purest green?
Er, the title pretty much explains. My wife listens to podcasts and falls asleep to them but I can't not listen to a human voice so I listen to (ideally instrumental) music.
Anyone else? If so, what do you put on to drift away to?
Come join us at Cooking with fire!
Pictured in the thumbnail is an 'Over The Top Chilli' in its latter stages, an indirect cook, also here:
We also just slap meat on the grill:
but it's not just about meat. Veggies on the grill rule too:
If you or anyone you love deeply, with all your tastebuds, likes to cook over fire then come and join us. We are a small, but welcoming community for people who love to cook over a live flame.
HT to @CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al for pointing me here!
Even beats the sublime John Player Specials Lotus livery.
Sorry for the absolute potato quality!
