I commute into San Francisco everyday, and whenever I'm wearing some EZA gear I look to see if anyone will show a glimmer of recognition. It's only happened once, but it was so magical! I was at a Starbucks getting some coffee and a lady knocked on the window, pointed to my shirt with excitement, and then gave me the thumbs up. It was awesome!
Anyhow, I'm interested in any other jolly stories of spotting fellow Allies while out in the world.
Finished Pokemon Y, now I'm capturing the post-game beasties. And collecting all the Eevolutions, of course.
@outtay I remember the first time I was truly hurt by the Allies -- they were discussing Skyrim and they said something like "anyone who is still playing Skyrim isn't part of our audience". I, as a person who loves and still plays Skyrim, started tearing up a little because it was just so ... brutal. I got upset and vented to my husband (bless his heart) and then I felt better.
All this to say --- we all have our buttons, and "L&R" acknowledges that fact. Negativity and snarkiness can live within L&R because it's a balanced deal. In that same stream, I think Kyle belly laughed and had this glowing goofy-ass smile because he was joyful about a licensed game. I'm sorry that you're feeling let down by Kyle and Damiani's comments, and perhaps (like with me) your disappointment is a direct correlation of how much you like these guys.
@sabotagethetruth I second this observation and would definitely urge everyone to listen to the most perfect piece of Kyle product premiered within the latest steam -- "Robot Party."
I want to boost this post because Morgan Mohalla on a recent Cup Of Jones asked if there was something like this -- a sort of history of fan engagement with EZA. That question was in turn inspired by the L&R comment a few weeks where Ryan F. (sp?) detailed his own journey with EZA. So, I'm guessing there's a desire to know others' histories with this group that we all dearly enjoy.
I'm very curious to read any updates to the entries that already exist and maybe see some new ones in this thread.
@mango said in The Uncomfortable Final Bosman Dilemma:
to put this another way, a wild Pokemon is beautiful in ways a caged one can never be
Yes.
Just finished Detective Pikachu. It was lovely and fun and now I want another big mystery to solve. <3!
@jesse-abraham So I've been playing Civ VI like a crazy person and just got Rise & Fall over the weekend. Personally, I really enjoy the addition of leaders and of governors. As @Sazime explained, we were both kinda surprised that the expansion cost extra, but for the amount of time I've already sunk into the game I'm okay with paying that extra. I'm sorry that your Civ experience has been soured. Maybe take a Civ break? Come back to it later with some fresh eyes?
@fridge-man Hey, man, he bought me fair and square. All it cost him was his freedom. ;)
