I don't care if you're a star, the moon, or the whole damn sky, you need to come back down to earth and remember where you came from

You named your character Xerxes? Like the AI from system shock 2?

Zelda also probably responsible for the majority of ocarinas made and sold, ever. If not for OoT it'd be just one of those weird instruments you read about on Wikipedia and only 1 person ever bothered to record anything with it.

This. You pay money to see a movie and they show you ads for 15 mins. You buy a dvd and you have to skip the ads before you can get to the main menu. gently caress you

here's the secret to dvds, don't tell anyone. if you're time travelling back to 2005 and buying a dvd player, make sure you getting an offbrand one that ignores the unskippable flag and region coding. the good ones also tended to play dvd-rs with divx files on them

I liked that that door with the face on it kept getting brought up in The Wiggles Defunctland video, because if you've ever taken a child who is a Wiggles fan to a Wiggles anything you know kids would have lost their loving mind about seeing the door and pretty much everything in that crappy ride.

I wish I could find the photo I took of it, but I reacted the same way when I saw the display case at The Wiggles Powerhouse Museum exhibit that contained the Blue Wiggle's 10-inch jewel embedded ceremonial dagger. Turns out there's something about The Wiggles for everyone.

it's 15 minutes of regular product ads, and then 15 minutes of movie trailers

The pro move is to figure out how long the trailers usually run for at a given theater so you can arrive there right when the movie is about to start.
