@yoshi Is that the Japanese name for Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel?

@hanabi being from Vancouver, it was good to see Boston get pumped at home in game 7...but then they didn't burn their city down so I guess we still lose.

Major congrats to the Blues and their fans. 52 years.

@dmcmaster you spelled Awesome Possum wrong

@bam541 I wonder if this opens the door for a Diddy Kong Racing remaster.

@axel It does and I think those are realistic ideas but I hope you're partly wrong. I hope it that, by the final episode you can go everywhere. Also, while I agree it would be tough to tell people to play episode 1 before 2 etc, I hope they give you the option to either carry over characters, equipment etc or to start the game at or near the previous episode's level cap with the equipment you would have ended with had you not done side quests. For example, Cloud might have the best weapon you could buy in a shop in the previous episode but not Ultima Weapon or Apocalypse. Does THAT make sense?

@dipset Did it not seem a bit much? Like, as if the loud ones were obviously planted to make it look like people are happy with these products so as to convince people watching that these games are accepted now?

NUMBER 1 - Consumption of Coffee

Have you ever been sitting around with a friend and said, "hey, wanna grab a coffee?" only to receive the reply, "I don't drink coffee"? If you're Finnish, probably not. Nothing crushes me more to hear somebody I thought I knew utter these words. Finns drink the most coffee per capita of any nation in the world! They drink, on average, 12 kg per capita per year, which is almost double the amount of the average Canadian at 6.5 kg. That's HALF the number of annoying responses from friends; AKA doing it better.

Oh, they also won the Winter War over the massive military super power Russia, which is super cool but I could find no record of Canada vs Russia wars.

@ezekiel I don't get it...

@binarymelon I am a VERY big fan of Sunshine but I do recall 3 major dislikes: blue coins, pachinko, poison river. You dig?

NUMBER 2 - Lohikeitto (so happy I only have to write these things and not say them)

A few years ago, my sister-in-law came to visit so I was trying to find some really authentic restaurants with food you can't find in Japan. I found a restaurant that focused on the foods of the indigenous people of Canada (it's called Salmon and Bannock, if you come to Vancouver, I highly recommend). They had this salmon soup that was phenomenal. Creamy, salty and packed to the brim with dill.

Flash forward to a few days ago and I buy me a piece of salmon with the intention of recreating that soup. I Google me some "salmon soup" and one of the options I see is this Finnish salmon soup that sound mysteriously similar to what I had eaten all those years ago. So I make it last night and OH MY GOD it is the best thing to happen to my taste buds in some time.

So now I'm in a conflict. Both countries have provided me with delicious salmon and dill soup. How do I separate them?...

Eureka!! I Google "origin of dill" and find that it's from Southern Europe, particularly the Mediterranean. Furthermore, the word "dill" apparently comes from the Norwegian word "dilla" which means "to soothe". So based on this research, I think it's fair to assume Finland had dill first considering its relative proximity to Southern Europe and its shared border with Norway. Finland is the OG, we're just imitators.

Lohikeitto, look it up. Easy to make and insanely delicious.
