A Robot Bit Me
This Mishima kills fascists

Geen. Final Fantasy Mystic Quest was called Final Fantasy USA in Japan, Geen. You were thinking of the US GB Final Fantasy games when you said it wasn't called Final Fantasy in Japan, Geen.

I think I was thinking about Mystic Quest's European release, where it was known as Mystic Quest Legend, although I never knew it was called "Final Fantasy USA: Mystic Quest" in Japan. What a strange world they must have thought the US existed in between that and Super Mario USA.

Really though, if you ever want to play Splatoon or Mario kart or smash or whatever, just tell me a good time. I have a super irregular schedule.

it's the entire saga, i think it's finally over

As I walked towards the building, it took me a minute to figure out what the large box carelessly dumped in front of the store door was.
Thanks!

Basically took Berlin's stance that Romanticism presented the single greatest shift of Western consciousness and ran with it. That allowed me to cover both what influenced Romanticism (or what it was responding to) and then what it then influenced, like, you know...everything since it. I likened it lighter fluid. It burns hot and bright, but is only meant to get the fire started. Kinda corny, but whatevs. Clown college.

This is for a history class, so there's been no readings of Wordsworth. We were told to pick a subject of history between 1700 and 1900 and I chose Romanticism. This prof is so disconnected from the class, that I don't think I'm married to the thesis. I highly doubt he'd go back to look at what the original thesis was. Regarding that preface, one of the books I've really enjoyed was the transcription of Isaiah Berlin's BBC lectures, The Roots of Romanticism. He called bullshit on Wordsworth's "real language of men." Thanks! You've given me an idea of what to do.

I do know my focus is on the beginning and the effect it had on everything that followed, which seems to be rather enormous.

I honestly don't know where to go. My original thesis was basically "Romanticism was a result of artists pushing back against the mechanical culture of the Industrial revolution." But that's like saying a car runs because you put gas in the tank. There's so much more to it. I'm up to my elbows in Hume, Hamaan, Schilling, and Schlegel. Some sources credit Roussou, some say he deserves little credit since he was always a sophist, he just said his shit romantically, until he didn't. I don't know.

whoa that is a cool cake!

It IS a really cool statue!

The game suffers from being a 2009 game that came out in 2013, there's quite a lot of jank to it. It's not even the worst 2009 game in the world though!

Thank you again!

Dang dude! Thank you for the fancy Aliens set! I understand the game isn't so hot, but I'll give it a go! The plastic statue is neat!

Yeah it does! I will pay pal it to you tomorrow. Thanks!

Sure. $3.50 plus shipping sound fair?

I do.

Mzo said you got to hang out with Tim Rogers and i'm jealous

That's a strong statement! But personal stuff aside (meaning even if the two of us got along), I couldn't disagree. Even the one most people would nominate for that position at least offers content of worth occasionally. It's definitely a close race between he and the wee.

Random conversation the other night at a Xrd gathering. I asked one of our guys (JediMindTrick) Who do you think the best Robo-Ky was back in the day? And he responded "A Robot Bit Me"

did you play Robo Kai in Guilty Gear

That's Arfoire, one of the antagonists in the Hyperdimension Neptunia series.

There sure were a lot of eggplants in video games in the 80s.

i was going to post rep but i can't and it was going to say

"Thomas Kinkade imo"

Weird. I'll check it out, and see what's going on. Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks!!

Yes yes very soon, I was surprised you were all on so late last time!! But I'm pretty much down whenever, hit me up any time you want to beat on somebody!

Happy late birthday! i hope you had a fun birthday and you got to eat cake or tacos or whatever you like for you birthday
