I was driving to Vegas yesterday which was an around 6 hour trip and on one of the rest stops where I went to the bathroom and then back to my car some white thick-texan accent guy approached my car window asked me to roll it down and told me "Hey we're celebrating this guy winning $250,000 and he's giving everyone $200. Come with me, let's meet this guy" something along those lines. I decided to go since I was bored out of my mind on this trip knowing this is 100% some kind of scam and it was right besides my car (if it was a watermelon addict I would have never opened my car window in the first place). When I approached the location a bunch of people assembled around the guy who supposedly won, who all pretended to meet each other for the first time, greeting each other, asking for names. The guy had a huge wad of cash in his hand that he flayed around. Then the guy who won the $250,000 starts playing some kind of card game of where you have to point you finger at 3 cards that he mixes up at the ground and when you do you and get a joker you win double or nothing but I didn't 100% understand the rules because of these thick-ass accent. We all made a round circle around the cards where I was positioned in front of the guy playing the cards and I stayed quiet for a good 3 minutes or so and wanted to see how this played out but when I realized that no one was playing the game and they were just screaming around as though they were pretending to play and in reality they were ALL waiting for me to point my finger at the cards I quietly left while the original guy following behind me and went inside of the car and just didn't say a thing. Nothing happened after that but I stayed and watched as these guys did the exact same thing to the other people at the rest stop. Does anyone have an idea of what this scam is supposed to be?

from what i see, it looks like they wanted you to bet money, and they'd milk you dry or worse, put you in debt.

Fucking weird and scary. I had a much more benign encounter today. Two koreans tried to explain to me that there is actually both a "father god" and a "mother god", because in the bible verbs referring to god are always in the plural form. After finishing with this absolutely brilliant presentation, made with the aid of several powerpoint slides on a tablet no less, we just stared at each-other for a second or so, then I told them I had to go.

I've been shifting between stainless steel, and cast iron along with glass for cookware, for tools, it's cast cast iron, stainless steel, wood (home made wood tools). I threw away plastic stuff and some of the crock pots i had contained lead and other shit. Only a couple cast iron products i can remember are from the brand lodge, everything else is like made in america, from a farm, from a local blacksmith, (who don't use bullshit like lead as additives) from a person who does woodwork with all natural shit, but most of the others i have no clue about.
I also had to throw away my measuring cups because the fucking red dye they use for the letters contained cadnium. Also fuck teflon.
It's kind of a pain to treat the cast iron but at the same time food kind of tastes better when i use them? Kinda made the switch out of paranoia but i don't have any major regrets since i needed new cookware and my plastic crap cookware was falling apart so it had to go.

Switch 2 release ad finally dropped.

This shit looks so ass it makes me wish I could Switch 2 a different console

>>4064
There's no news about the specs either, i'd laugh hard if its just 1080p.
LOOK GUYS WE MADE THE SCREEN BIGGER NOW PAY 700 BUCKS

More proof pc is master race. The fact that the price is 700 bucks just seems like another 3DS situation.

>>4066
I don't know if it will be 700 shekels, but it seems like a viable estimate to me, considering the OLED was 300 dispite minimal changes being made.
Also i had a funny thought where what if switch 2 games have the little tabs on it, to prevent the games being played on old consoles, and imagine shaving them off and it plays normally LOL

>>4067
I hope at least the Switch 2 will be backward compatible. The Switch 2 almost feels unreal at the moment because the modern state of gaming hasn't excited me for some time.

>>4068
It says its backwards compatible in the ad.

One of my goals is to find the Tarot of Marseilles, not for divination, but for me to study the archetypes. Speaking of which, something weird is that the joker in the dark night movie, when he gets hung he literally does the hanged man pose although thats probably just a little coincidence.

I actually would have made the switch to PC, the problem is that, i had bought the alan wake collection for pc (actual discs) and when i tried downloading the game the fucker installed steam instead. It wasn't like back in the day when i bought starwars jedi academy for pc and it downloaded the game to my laptop. When i inspected the alan wake package it said nothing about downloading fucking steam, it had the specs and file size. Another so called PC game i found, wreckfest also had this bullshit on the package where it said you had to have steam in order to play the game.

https://jungiancenter.org/books/ Lol, So all of Jung's Collected Works is online. What i found on internet archive was incomplete, so it's nice.

Thank you for that

I went over to a used bookstore and found 10 volumes of fullmetal alchemist for 1 dollar per book, although the first two volumes was missing.
Also found a bunch of classic literature and philosophy books for dirt cheap, the stuff i was looking for, which was nice. Then i traveled to a couple of stores, and i bought skyrim for the PS4 for 5 bucks, and advanced wars for the switch for 10 bucks and the capcom fighting collection for 5 bucks and i'm personally hyperventilating as i'm typing this, HOLY SHIT. I read about advanced wars (for gameboy) in nintendo power magazine but i never got a copy and the price for the switch version was 60 dollars so hell yeah. I love arcade games, and to be honest i only heard of darkstalkers from Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds so like i get to play a bunch of obscure (from my perspective) japanese fighting games for dirt cheap so thats a win in my opinion.
Skyrim, didn't want to play it but 5 bucks is 5 bucks.

>>4183
Probably going to go back soon to buy resident evil village for 10, i felt mixed because to be honest i only played RE4 so i was kind of out of the loop but fuck it, sounds pretty metal of a story.

I am sick of the readings for my courses not having anything to do with what we are going to be talking about in class.

>>4197
Why do they do it?

>>4197
That happened so many times in High school and University. It is almost as if the teacher acts as if they are the most important class. When the homework they give is useless I try to find workarounds because a lot of teachers think they have more important classes.

Ever since thriller bark the quality of one piece went down hill, Just the typical shit you'd see in any shonen anime, which sucked because it actually had fucking potential. It makes me wonder about what's going on with the authors headspace considering the tonal shift. I liked the bit about
Sabaody Archipelago and slavery and the over all super fucking dark tone but god damn, then theres an episode or two or three or just stupid shit like fan service thrown in there and its just another blemish.
And i heard too that after the timeskip shit was supposed to be DARKER, but for the sake of what? shit writing?
Maybe it's just me but i'm reminded of
Berserk where it's super fucking massive and the first couple story arcs up to golden age are fucking outstanding then after it kind of just melts into typical shonen shit, what the hell happened there?

I feel like i'm having some type of mental breakdown in a good way, i mean that i'm doing too much research and i'm getting flashbacks so now what's fucking with me is evangelion.
So basically asuka has the jungian electra complex, (you can say the same with ritsuko) rei has the freudian death drive, (also a representation of shinji's unconscious in the jungian sense) you can say that shinji has the oedipus complex, he also seems to have a libido-destrudo complex. Without a doubt kaworu is his jungian shadow. Although freud has more of an obvious hold over evangelion especially by episode titles like "oral stage", jung stated that the collective unconscious can be symbolised by water. (lcl fluid) In a way in the jungian sense too, evangelion is a "myth" of the author, with every character being an aspect of himself, (a persona if you will) the creator even stating as such.

>>4223
But also unit-01 contained the conscious of his mom, so by entering it, it's like the freudian "return to the womb" but to make matters worse the plug is like a phallic symbol so he's also fucking his mom.....

>>4224
>hedgehog's dilemma
Looks like i need to read Schopenhauer, more rabbitholes to chase.

>>4223
Also i feel like it's dubious that the people behind evangelion only used religious stuff "because it looks cool" due to how things played out and how various religious icons symbols was used, too much shit from the zohar that works in such a way to be more then just mere empty symbolism but i could very well be schizophrenic at this point. It's just that the task of man in the kaballah is restoring union to the male and female divine manifestation, and it leads to ein sof
>Ein Sof is a place to which forgetting and oblivion pertain. Why? Because concerning all the sefirot, one can search out their reality from the depth of supernal wisdom. From there it is possible to understand one thing from another.
Which is kinda is what happened at the end of the story in like episode 25-26

>>4223
I think you're missing the point a little bit, Evangelion is actually about deciding which emotionally vulnerable 14 year old you want to fuck and have sex with

Why didn't you guys tell me about Nyaight of the Living Cat? I just saw the trailer for the new anime https://youtube.com/watch?v=BJF5OMXD7xI [Play] So i started reading the manga, so far its fun. I think it also says alot about our society.

Been keeping an eye out for games that i haven't played before, been stuck on first person shooters and basic bitch games for so long so i feel like i've missed out on stuff. Like, made plenty of mistakes like selling games i shouldn't have and gaming systems i haven't been able to recover. What i've been looking for? Some old games like silent hill, arcade games and JRPGs or like games specifically with a very unique story or shit i always wanted to play like Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.
>what i bought recently
Street fighter V: champion edition
(trying to play the games in chronological order so i can't say much although i heard that the game was shit during launch but got better
Infinte undiscovery
Would have passed it back in the day but fuck it, story sounds like something, retard with a flute gets mistaken for some ultimate hero and is forced to kill a guy trying to drop the moon from where it hangs in the sky
Might be shit, might be good. I'll see soon enough.

God i like the fucking manga but an anime adaption? I don't know, maybe something about the visuals feels icky to me
>warner bros japan
Just, warner bros japan alone makes me wonder if they'll fuck it up.

I just bought pokemon ultramoon on a whim, it was 20 bucks.
Haven't played pokemon since pokemon Y came out. Have no clue about the current era of pokemon or if it's any good.
Me? Been thinking about the time i was 5 and my mom bought me a copy of pokemon yellow at goodwill, to play with my secondhand gameboy console that she bought at a yardsale. Like a typical retard i had no fucking clue what i was doing, spammed attacks, didn't debuff, released pokemon i shouldn't have but it was a hell of a time. Thought lavendertown was spooky as fuck, still remember the theme to this day and i also remember fighting against mewtwo.
Looking back, part of the stuff i like about pokemon was the edgy shit, the fact that team rocket killed pokemon, that one retard who was transformed into a pokemon by accident, the mew two story, later happenings like that one haunted house in pokemon pearl i think, besides edgy shit there was some great story elements and cool stuff like red returning in soulsilver/heartgold. Going to gamestop to get rare pokemon was fucking EPIC, generally exploring at most times wasn't a slog and there's something about getting lost in an unknown area as a kid that had a sense of wonder to it.
I don't know what to expect with the new game. I stopped playing Y out of boredom, i hope i'll enjoy the new game.
Also before i forget there was a pokemon cartoon in cartoon network that was closer to the original vision to what pokemon was supposed to be and there was gore and a bit of edge to it, might see if i can find that.

>>4290
Oh speaking of soulsilver the pokewalker thing was cool as fuck, i still own mine.

>>4291
I remember using it in Washington DC back in the day. I ended up losing the Pokewalker. Wished I didn't lose it because it was fun.

>>4290
For those who buy a used pokemon game, DO NOT WIPE IT, check the PC first to see what pokemon the previous owner has, you can get rare, exclusive or hacked shit you can't find anywhere else, as an example the previous owner had had a shiny fucking mewtwo.
Found a guy irl who has a copy of ultrasun and we decided to make a deal where i'll give him some shit i found and i didn't need or are only exclusive to my game and in exchange i'll get the other pokemon on this pc that i'll get after i wipe my game and start fresh, although it's a long fucking wait to reach a point where i'll reach a point in game to where i can get access to a pc.
Would have did it myself but i'm not seriously paying for a copy of ultrasun.
Back in my day i'd buy pokemon games with super rare pokemon and transfer em over since i had copies of games and a second system lol. On my old pokemon platnum i saved a mewtwo who was shiny, and with maxed out stats lol, think he was hacked and i transfered him over to soulsilver.
