What's the game you play when nothing else sounds good? in c/[email protected]

Aww, bummer. I'm sure I could get a PS2 emulator up and running, but I don't think it would be worth it just for Burnout 3

Classic! I should re-buy this on steam so I can play it again.

Lol that's awesome. I really do feel like I've gotten more value out of this thread about Blade 3 than I would have by actually watching Blade 3.

Haha okay I'm glad I didn't miss anything good. I only ever watched the first one, but this post made me curious.

Aren't the meat products used for pets by-products of the meat (for humans) industry? That is, isn't it the case that no additional livestock animals are slaughtered to feed pets, beyond those that are already being slaughtered to feed humans?

My only issue with this is that it's been posted in the Lemmy Shitpost community, and it's not shit at all.

That's fair enough. Frequently when I've seen a reference to the joke I'm referencing, it's followed by a "IYKYK", so I figured it's fun for those who already do. It's a reference to an old Folgers ad in which a brother and sister behave in an implausibly affectionate way toward each other. It's just bad acting, but viewed with a cynical mindset, it seems very suspicious.

Underrated comment at the bottom there. IYKYK

Weird Knife Wednesday: Svörd Peasant Micro in c/pocketknife
[–] cardboardchris 2 points 3 months ago

I'm not by any means a knife guy, but I read all your weird knife Wednesday reviews (and many of your other reviews) because they're both entertaining and fascinating. The way your joyful reverence for the art and craft of knife design give your writing a kind of sincerity that is nearly extinct in modern social media (or anyway I've become cynical enough that it seems so). This Lemmy community (perhaps your work is available elsewhere, but I've only encountered it here) is an obscure pocket of intense, earnest, and skillfully delivered enthusiasm that feels like a secret garden or hidden library nook filled with nearly-overlooked pleasures.

You're doing a great service to the community, is what I mean to say. And I could go no longer without expressing my gratitude. That's all.
