the best part of Moomins was when Moomin says 'ITS MOOMIN TIME' and he moomed all over those guys

If they ever do movies based on those whacky Hobbit/Lord of the Rings prequel stories, I predict it will be the first film to make a Silmarillion dollars at the box office.

Baja Blast was released at Taco Bell twenty years ago. It feels like it was just yesterday that I walked into a Taco Bell, with the vinyl booths and actual live cacti, and there it was. A brand new Mountain Dew.

I remember when they first invented Baja Blast. Sweet, sweet Blast.

I'm trying to get my Pokémon knowledge back, starting with the Eeveelutions.

What type is Luncheon again? 🤔

I've always hated reality television that doesn't involve someone next to a pinata getting whacked in the taint, so I despised American Idol when it was the biggest show in the country. Can't believe it's still going.

They should have given Randy a pinata stick to hit Simon with

[NewGameNate @NewGameNate]

What the fuck. What the fuck. A video I was watching played a second of audio from the American Idol theme song, and I was like 'ha! Wow, remember that? What a sound that is specific to 2002-2010.'

What the fuck do you mean it's still going??? It ended ten years ago, right...?

My history degree is basically a $30,000 Uno reverse card.

Some asshole who got their knowledge of history from a TikTok video: 'Clearly you don't know what you're talking about, why don't you go learn about some history and then we can have a reasonable discussion.'

You all thought I was gone, but I’ve just been underground. What you’ve seen from me is only a #shadow of things to come…

[NewGameNate @NewGameNate]

Alright, we ALL know that Sega is calling the new game Sonic X Shadow just so that a few... less-than-brand-friendly things get pushed out of Google's search results.

I had to talk to three different people using a phone this morning so I've basically used the entirety of my willpower reserves for the whole week in one go and I'm just going to go lie down in the dark until god finally answers my prayer to make answering machines illegal

Fun new game, try to figure out what broken part of my brain is responsible for beginning a rant with the top section, and ending it with the bottom one. Can you figure out what ridiculous tangent connected these two halves of the same Classic Nathan Rant™?

Mewing ➡️❔➡️ Dune 2

I know they can't, but think of how funny it would be if they changed the Colonel's voice line in Metal Gear Solid from
'Meryl's codec number is on the back of the CD case' to
'Meryl's codex number is on the last screenshot on the Steam page!' for the Master Collection

[NewGameNate @NewGameNate]

feel like pure shit just want her back x

[NewGameNate @NewGameNate]

Very powerful memories of sitting on the floor under my family's home computer, staring at the artwork on these CD sleeves with unspeakable dread while my dad played Riven and kept asking me to give him the discs back so he could cross that one bridge that makes you change discs

In a bad place rn, don't need anything but be good to each other because there's no point in being cruel

The hardest fight in Act 1 of Baldur's Gate 3 is the one where you free Halsin because unless you knock those two goblin kids unconscious on your first turn, Halsin is going to maul them to death with NO hesitation.

Still trying to recover from the realisation that Christopher Walken performed in the music video for Fatboy Slim's Weapon of Choice, a song with lyrics inspired by Dune, and he's also playing the Padishah Emperor in Dune: Part Two

Every time I hear people talking about Skinamarink it's basically, 'oh this was the scariest scene I've ever seen in a movie 💀💀👻' and it's just

Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture but the cannons are replaced with nuclear warhead detonations.

Basically the band Disaster Area from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

[NewGameNate @NewGameNate]

I found out that Elden Ring will actually pause the game if you press select when your map is open. The really funny thing is it still tries to load in other players' phantoms while the game is paused, so when you close the map there will be dozens of them running all around you.
