Can’t believe princess Leia hasn’t been mentioned yet.

“What the hell are you doing?” “Somebody has to save our skins. Into the garbage chute flyboy!”

Lol

Don’t repeatedly kill the cows in the first village so that you can sell their drops for coins. You can do it once… maybe twice…

It’s because video games turned into investment vehicles where companies want to make at least 50% return on their investment instead of create a fun and engaging peice of entertainment.

Spongebob

Power Rangers

A lot of people have given good answers but I’ll throw in an anecdote.

Growing up my dad would talk about how important it is to follow laws. Don’t do drugs, don’t drink and drive, etc, but even the smaller ones like don’t jay-walk and never litter.

On a car ride I noticed he was going like 5 mph over the speed limit and I pointed it out. Something like “if its important to follow every law why are you breaking the speed limit”.

And he responded something about how it’s not an actual law but a recommended speed or something. But I kept saying it was a law and he was breaking it. He got pretty upset and finally said if I didn’t drop he’d take away my Gameboy for a weekend or something.

It could’ve been he was just annoyed his kid wouldn’t shut up but it seems like textbook cognitive dissonance that he couldn’t reconcile the two ideas that every law should be followed and it’s ok to break the speed limit a little and it got him upset.

“People work in roles they don’t care about, for companies they have no investment in, to pay loans they shouldn’t have.”

That sounds like a fight club quote lol. I know you didn’t say “loans they shouldn’t have” but the cost of college is just stupidly high. It doesn’t have to be free but come on.

Pokemon Red was an amazing part of my childhood

Definitely The Mummy starring Brenden Fraiser and Rachel Weisz

Came here after the API bullshit. Takes a little getting used to but it scratches that same itch

Not “forever” but they should continue to work it seems. They will degrade and slowly stop working over time tho, no clue how long.

For real. At least the odds aren’t explicitly against you like casinos.
