IT'S YA BOY
My experience ordering soda living in Georgia since I was like 4 has been the following:

"id like a (name of soda)" and receiving said soda

or

"id like that with a (size) drink" and receiving a cup to fill up at one of those soda fountain machines

If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now.

my new dog posted:

what about solaire in smash, from dark souls, which is coming out on the switch, or so ive heard

Not the worst idea. Here's my problems with it

A) We already have tons of 'swordsman' types in smash. How would he differentiate from Roy, Marth, Link, etc.?
B) Solaire is far from the most important character in souls. He's kinda insignificant, although I guess he's the most iconic character in souls since the player character has the same problem as Robin from fire emblem but worse.
C) There are already so many characters in Smash that poor Sakurai is going to die

so yeaaah. Maybe solaire as like an alt-costume for Roy or something IDK.

olimar and the pikmin should be the same size as hollow knight, which is about the size of the other characters' toes.

Brick Seek is down from everyone trying to check stock but it showed 99% discounted and 91% in stock a while ago.

I got Hollow Knight on steam sale a few days ago and I know I'm just echoing what everyone else has been saying but goddamn is it good.

I made it to the City of Tears and just wow what a setpiece. It's amazingly gorgeous and give me some hella FFIX vibes (specifically Burmecia). Also found the Crystal Peak and it is similarly really awesome.

I don't think I've disliked any location in this game honestly. They are unique from one another and gorgeous in lots of different ways. :kiddo:

I guess I just don't understand how people outside Texas order carbonated beverages. I want a coke, I ask for a coke. Do people in california just ask for a soda and then receive any kind of soda? Is this a common exchange in Minnesota: "What do you want to drink?" "A pop, please. One Pepsi-style pop"

Part of my childhood was in Southwest VA and I definitely recall ordering a coke and the response being “what kind?”

I moved to WV where most people said “pop” but ordering it seems like people say the specific drink but use pop in generic, “grab some pop when you go to the store.”

In Minnesota the exchange normally goes:

A: Could I get you a drink?
B: No, I'm fine.
A: Really? It's no bother.
B: Oh, I couldn't trouble you.
A: I'll go put the coffee on; you just stay there.
B: There's no need, honest. I couldn't let you do that much work for me.
A: How about a pop then?
B: It's really not necessary.
A: Come on, I insist.
B: Well, if you insist then. I'll take a coke.
A: Ice? Glass?
B: Just the can is fine.
A: I'll get you a glass just in case. And Margery just made a pan of bars. Would you like a bar?
B: Oh no, I've got to get going soon.
A: Stick around a while. It's cold out. They're really good bars. And we're having hot dish later, dontchaknow.
B: Hot dish? Well, I couldn't say no to that. That'd just be rude.

I did the first big giant plot thing, naturally in the horror terror region Deepnest.

Cool now I can get the hell out of here and go find other places to venture to. On my way out why not check in with the weird moss people. O... oh...uh... they seem to be a bit... dead. Yikes.

Okay whatever I picked up a thing I think I can use somewhere in Forgotten Crossroads let's just go to town and then drop down and....
