Fired up the old original Kid Icarus for fun today.

Why the heck did they ever think it was a good idea to make a sequel to or create a trilogy from this game?

Also, it's pretty much literally just Metroid, and you've seen how well that's done.

My wife and I received a letter from the local water treatment plant, warning us that a chlorine filtration/cleaning/whatever the shit it does thing broke for 20 minutes, 5 weeks ago, but that everything is alright.

Joke's on them, though, we didn't even live here 5 weeks ago.

Don't water treatment plants have any redundancy for their filters an such? Considering a mistake could poison/infect an entire town, you can't count on just one system.

I've never been so glad to have access to pure, clean aquifer water.

Even if the tank has bugs in it.

For some reason I wondered what would happen if Tiruin and Xantalos had a baby...I imagine it as a Eldritch Abomination of Kindness.

Also what the fuck is wrong with me?

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

You'd think. You'd really, really think.

... it's not the water treatment plant, but the local water apparatus stuff -- the town level machinery and whatnot -- was recently (few weeks ago) discovered by an outside checkup to have been improperly maintained -- some critical parts not even looked at, when it's both pretty vital they're done so regularly and entirely costless to the town to have it done (another organization does it gratis, but has to be called in) -- for years.

Point being that redundant systems may not be enough to prevent a town getting poisoned, assuming human incompetence hasn't decided to forgo them entirely. Biology being what it is, it can even end up being years later that the effects of such things actually start becoming evident.

That feeling when someone at the next table talks about how disgusting the slaughterhouse she visited was and you need to suppress an Auschwitz joke...

"superior"

The point stands though, it is a silly reason to stop the imports. I'll miss the Rolos, for sure. At least I still have Riesen.
