I think it's a combination of nostalgia and the fact that SML1 had levels, enemies and music that were super unique compared to other Mario games before or after.

SML2 is a better game on the technical side of things but nothing in it blew me away or was memorable enough for me to recall with super clarity like I do with 1.

I'll always prefer SML 1.

But I do fondly remember this.

I have a Samsung TV and it's kind of irritating that it does this same thing. Any option you leave selected for a few seconds will start playing a sample

It's frustrating to have to go hunt for a safe place to put my cursor so my TV doesn't start playing something I don't want it to.

18 billion yearly profit last I checked.

Not enough.

Never enough.

Man, I barely graduated from high school because I saw the entire thing as busy work.

My grade in any class was dependant on how much the tests were weighed versus any class or homework. Sleeping or reading through class was my usual.

Now that I'm older I see the value in building the discipline needed to do that sort of busy work because if I don't my house falls apart and such, so there's that.

I wish it didn't take me so long to learn it though.

You know, there was a girl I was chatting with once. She suggests we get lunch, then calls it off last minute.

A few days later she complains about some guy she likes who stood her up for lunch that lives near me.

Then she just ghosted me.

I've always wondered if she meant me and the whole thing was her miscommunicating and then trying to be coy and indirect.

President has wide latitude in matters like this. Air strikes in this context are legal for him. He can even deploy troops as long as their deployment isn't longer then 60 days.

Because they can be slotted in to work existing machinery without retooling the entire plant.

Working long solo sessions of people leaving me the fuck alone tends to be correlated with me getting projects done.

Yes, truth is a defense.

The grey area this law attempts to exploit is that terms like 'racist' have no absolute definition. The term can be used as a response to anything from 'i don't like Indian food' to 'Hilters views on the aryan race were right'.

Take the Indian food example. If you were you say that, and I called you a racist for it, is that a matter of opinion on my behalf or a fact that is the basis of a defamation suit?
