I used to interact with a guy who was like, “nah, breasts can never be too big”. I respect that cause I think after a certain point it definitely gets kinda gross! And perhaps these are already past that point for many people…!
I used a fork unless I was grabbing somehting with bread. sorry not eating it authentically
Some Indian food for lunch. Normally you’re supposed to eat your Indian curries with like garlic naan, but I prefer it with puri. I consulted an Indian friend of mine if it’s culturally acceptable to do so and it seems to be OK! God bless America
average is 20 hrs to completion so a little slow on the reading speed
Spent a few hours finishing this up today. I can’t go into details since it’s hard to get around spoilers… but I quite like it! I think developing the story was more interesting than the actual ending/climax though, as the build-up to the ending is somewhat rushed and perhaps a little too convenient. I was initially worried that introducing 13 characters off the bat might be a little too much to handle, but the game does well to distinguish them from each other. My favorite moments were the chapter 3 trial and the ending of chapter 6. If you were interested in it in passing, definitely check it out when the English translation when it’s ready!
how much roller coaster do you need
Brother didn’t get enough theme park. Gold Striker was running faster than what we were expecting, perhaps after being warmed up after running all day, so that was refreshing!
hooray new adults. I don’t have any other figgies that have plate armor, so I think Platea is a good addition! I don’t order food delivery myself cause it’s not affordable, but I wouldn’t mind my food being delivered by Aoi… hehe…
I gave out some free points… but luckily it wasn’t too many! I think there’s a few mistakes I could take back, but otherwise I think I did what I could. Looking at the nagger logs maybe I’m overcompensating trying to push for 1st since the ai is built on 4th avoidance… but we’ll just have to keep practicing. At least I can say I didn’t alt-tab for these matches! But other ranked matches.. well.. haha…
Finished chapter 7/9 of manosaba. The images for the in game items are too small on my screen deck, so I missed a few details for the clues. Probably would be fine if I played on PC, but luckily you can keep guessing choices until you pick the right one.
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i stayed up late playing my gaym so goodbye!!
mMmMm I have turned my brain into mushy pudding as I can’t work without checking my phone every 30 minutes! This is extremely unbefitting of a working professional so I better do something about it very soon! Ideas come to mind like writing down each time I grab it and what I check it for. That would be extremely embarassing to report and might make me reconsider checking it. aaaaaiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Talked to a former co-worker who wanted a refresher on ‘current topics’ for work for his interview, so I briefed him on topics I’d expect an ‘experienced hire’ to be proficient/knowledgeable in. Hope he gets the job?
why is my time zone in phoenix
I heard there’s gonna be free points tomorrow on table A! Hope I don’t lose too many…
uhh i went to work and caught up on e-mails and work and came home and cleaned my room up a bit (but not entirely) then watched some my teammate play in /mjg/ league 7 and then I got owned in tile game but notice how exercise is missing in those list of activities???? better fix it after eating so much on vacation!!!
I remember last time I came back from Japan I wish I could stay there forever. Luckily, I don’t feel the same way about Canada, so I had no problems wanting to come back home!
How have I been doing without logging into X for at least the last two weeks? I just check @avidseries because I’m racist, so doing pretty well. I’m finding politics and current events less interesting to check, so that’s a plus too! Now I just need to work on converting free time to useful activities…
i had a fantasy I’d do all of these waiting in line for roller coasters… haha…
Probably giving up IIDX for the short/medium term. Can’t fit in a few hours a week as I’m already behind on my other goals. ;_;
But it’s ok, I also didn’t do a lot of things in my life too! Like have a girlfriend or have 2277 skill level in runescape or complete a wow expansion with full pve epics or reach global elite in cs:go or reach master 1v1 in starcraft 2 or reach celestial in mahjong soul or reach 鳳凰 in 天鳳. but at least I have c*nny (:
ok early bird gets the worm! unless you don’t like worms. then you can stay up tonight.zzzzzzzzzz
Stopped by a Canadian grocery store. Not too much different, but I liked that they play sounds of chickens clucking near the eggs section. Very cute!
Here’s the re-assembled Leviathan train with test water dummies in it. Seat 1.4 (front row, seat 4) lap bar doesn’t lift all the way, so no humans allowed!
Last meal in Canadia. This french burger was fun with roast beef and brie added to it. Also, we noted that this Heinz ketchup was made in Canada instead of the USA. I couldn’t tell a difference though.
Going home… I read a chapter of manosaba on the plane and started crying at the end of it. It was messed up… I should finish the rest soon!
Thanks Daniel
home sweet home. it’s been 10 days of sleeping without a real daki ™. i have work tomorrow too. time to get back to real life. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Writing this on the morning of the 25th so I’m a little late. Oops
one last look from the expensive ass hotel room
how many pictures of niagara do you need?
Niagara Boat Cruise. A little cloudy and drizzly today, so visibility isn’t too good. When I came last time it was nice and sunny, so I could see a lot of rainbows against all of the water falling down. Still good to see it up close again.
mmm gimmicks
And we are back! The rain stopped a little bit after our cruise, and we noticed the roller coaster was testing as we were walking back to our car. The ride is entirely janky and rough with overly strong laterals on the turns, but you do get the illusion that you’ll fly off the building when the coaster rushes towards the edges.
A strawberry cheesecake beaver tail. I think it’s just ok, but my brother liked it more than I did as he likes how crunchy it is. I guess I like my things nice and soft.
A quick stop at Seabreeze Amusement Park. It’s a family oriented amusement park and the thirteenth oldest one in the world. The main highlight is their roller coaster Jack Rabbit, which is the oldest continuing operating roller coaster in the United States. For something built in 1920, it’s pretty good! While the park doesn’t have too much to offer in terms of overall thrills, it has a unique charm to it that I don’t feel at other parks, especially compared to…
Six Flags Darien Lake. This park is quite literally in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by mostly forests and farmland. Six Flags just operates the park on behalf of a separate REIT, so they don’t have any headliner roller coasters in their roster. That isn’t to say that they aren’t improving the park, but it’s somewhat backwater and rundown. We were able to get one ride on each roller coaster before the rain come in, so mission accomplished on our part.
The park has one joint offering Buffalo Wings, but since it’s really just a joint in a park, they’re just chicken wings and they were OK.
it’s ok, the place was named in the 1930s so Adolf is a-OK
We picked Adolf’s Old First Ward Tavern to get our taste of real Buffalo Wings and selected Salt and Vinegar and Smokey Mesquite for our flavors. We probably should have gotten one flavor as sauced wings as it ended up being quite dry, but the exterior wings are satisfyingly crispy. The blue cheese ‘dressing’ offered was extremely thick and had chunks of actual blue cheese in it, compared to a more liquid form of dressing that I’d normally expect, so eating that with the wings was really fun!
Time for one last rodeo at Canada’s Wonderland before we fly out. It was very cold and rainy on Saturday, so it ended up being that Leviathan and Behemoth, the parks two big coasters, had their cars valley and fail to make it through the course due to temperatures and wind. We were worried that the rides would be down for an extended period of time, but it looks like they were able to disassemble the trains to get them out of the way. let’s gooooooo
Hello I am writing from a fancy hotel at niagara falls past midnight!
it’s like mt. fuji: HoW mAnY pIcTuReS oF nIaGaRa FaLlS dO yOu NeEd
I would have balked at the price but my brother booked it without consulting me. I would definitely rather get a night of ryokan in Hakone over this. But, the view is nice, so maybe I can only say that after having seen it myself.
Anyway, let’s go back to the start of the day!
more breakfast slop. today we get these veggie egg things instead of just scrambled eggs
translation note: lait is french for milk
my brother cussed me out cause I told him these lights at night from our window weren’t from canada’s wonderland. now that the sun has risen… i lost
a peameal bacon sandwich from St. Lawrence Market. It’s a salty slice of pork with some additional breading. An interesting, salty taste but I don’t think I would need to have it again
oh noooooooooooo sportsball
A visit to the Hockey Hall of Fame! I started following the San Jose Sharks around the middle 2010s with my brother. Unfortunately, it has been mostly suffering, but our guy Joe Thornton was recently inducted. Also pictured are some decorative punch bowls, but I’ve seen those before.
umm…. we have japaneses steak at… Japan
A 5 oz steak at Kyoto Gyukatsudon! wait, you ate here… 5 months ago! idc dude. It’s yummy and it’d probably take me a very long time before I’d get sick of eating it. I wish we had one near my home instead of in Toronto. plz fix
(editor’s note: is switching between first person and whatever the fuck talking to myself is could be jarring to readers)
We were originally going to visit the local aquarium, but a Toronto BlueJays game was going on, so there was no chance of finding parking there! So we stopped by the mall instead and I picked up some Jinbei from the Muji there. Normally when you visit a Japanese hotel they’ll offer you these to wear as loungewear or within the hotel in place of you regular clothes, so now I can pretend to be a real 日本人 at home.
On the way to Niagara Falls we stopped by a Costco Wholesale. some things I noted:
Beef sold in the United States is listed by USDA grades, primarily prime for the highest cut and choice for the one below it. We don’t talk about anything below select. Here, we only get Canada AAA grade!
Rotisserie Chickens are $8.00 CAD, which, when translated back to USD, is about $5.00, which matches.
But the food court hot dog / POLISH SAUSAGEis only $1.50 CAD! which is $1.00 USD! bullshit man
Out of order chronologically, but the Montreal Smoked Meat Sandwich is pretty good. It’s like a roast beef sandich, but more peppery due to the montreal teak seasoning used to season the meat. At $5.00 USD, it’s better than the pastrami sandwich shit we have for sure. I would sleep on the chicken strips and fries though.
MILK COMES IN BAGS!!!! I WAS SO HAPPY TO SEE THIS I WAS GRINNING WALKING OUT HELL YEAH
They’re trying to pitch Mountain Dew as American Dew in the United States so it was jarring to see Mountain Dew in present day. I guess American Dew wouldn’t fly in Canada.
I would totally give these Maple Whiskey Ribbers a try.
what the fuck man this is not fair
its cute
Sodas don’t come with straws here! Just a sip lid.
Also, the deli ordering system works differently. In the United States, you order your item from the self-serve kiosk, then bring your receipt to the food court clerk to prepare and serve you your items. Instead, here you get a number assigned to your purchase receipt and then they yell out your number to pick up your order. Perhaps this way is more efficient.
While driving in the rainstorm we saw this Canadian flag ripped. pour one out for Canada, it’s over.
Here’s how the room looks like when I walked in. one whole ass chair just pointing out to the falls. nice
My brother is trying to get a ride on this frankencoaster on top of a Burger King. But it’s closed tonight due to rain, so we’ll try again tomorrow morning.
A carbonara pizza from Boston Pizza. Better than Pizza Pizza in quality and crisp bottom of the pizza, but it does cost more so it might be comparing the wrong thing here.
I think I’m uhh two days now without my own mahjong log review so oops bad habits die hard I guess
hotel breakfast slop. it’s nicer than the one in detroit, but this is a much bigger hotel
tipping on complimentary breakfast? these were left on every table
It’s an American tradition to play the Star-Spangled Banner at park opening, but they didn’t play O Canada for this park opening. How unpatriotic! EDIT 5/24/26: After internal discussion we noted that we were already in the park due to season passholder priveleges in advance of official opening at 10:00, so this is most likely incorrect as we would not have been able to hear the anthem at the opening gate because we were already deep in the park.
no, the white sauce is unfortunately not cinnamon roll frosting
Kebab with most likely yogurt sauce on it. Very middle-eastern-ey flavored. I’m a fan. Portion is a little small though.
couldn’t even print out a flavor sign for AlpenFury
Alpenfury flavored mini donuts. I’m not sure what raspberry has to do with AlpenFury though, since AlpenFury’s colors are like orange and blue.
Opted to have Manchurian Wok twice. Their Lo Mein noodles is better than their fried rice. I seem to be weak to “Chinese” breaded and fried shit tossed with sauce as I’m a sucker for Panda Express’s Orange Chicken. Their Honey Garlic Chicken is quite sweet and moist and can compare against Panda Express’s Orange Chicken. I’m a fan!
caught this guy redhanded shoplifting some noodles
the “daki” looks fine here… thank you jury rigging
Hotel pillows aren’t firm enough for my fat ass so I’ve settled on using my ‘head’ pillow as the actual head pillow and stuffing in two normal pillows as my daki. It ends up being disjointed anyway but I”m holding the first pillow with my arms and crossing my legs around the second pillow. so close enough. let’s fucking goooooooooooooo
i don’t normally eat potato chips on my own, but, when in Rome…
First stop today was this snack storefront for Better Made.. You can buy bags of chips for only $2! I think with shrinkflation these days an equivalent bag of Doritos or Lays or something would cost you like $4-5, so it’s good to shop local. I would note that the desk counter is heavily plexiglassed and the ‘clear box’ is for passing the purchased goods through from the cashier side to the customer, showing how rough Detroit is if a damn snack shop needs to fully seal off their store. Haven’t tried the chips yet so we’ll find out later! I picked our sour cream and onion, sweet bbq, and sweet maui onion.
how the hell do you come up with this shit
On the way in to Detroit we saw a billboard for Koegel’s and was wondering what it was. They make lunch meats! If I had to pick one to make a sandwich with, I’d pick Macaroni & Cheese Loaf. Olive Loaf will come in second.
cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms // hawaiian (cheese, ham, pineapple)
Our first Detroit pizza of the day is from Loui’s! It’s a more traditional take on Detroit Pizza. My frame of comparison is Slice House‘s Detroit style pizza, which I love for having a fluffy and pillowy pizza dough. I think the thing I like most about this pizza is that the cheese just keeps flowing out. Like, I’ll take a bite out of it and the cheese will ooze down out into the space created from me chewing off a piece from it.
For today’s activity, we visited the Henry Ford Museum of Innovation. It houses artifacts relating to American History, aviation, and cars. I don’t really know anything about aviation and cars, but as an American, I really like American History!
people had to draw the lines for your ruled paper! crazy!
hey bro
yeah, except my mahjong placement rate. jack that shit all the way up on the left side
weiners
the only dymaxion house. a really cool ‘tech bro’ concept but not at all practical
old school cute little girl
don’t let them tell you what the resolution is on those
shoulda handed translated copies of those out at hiroshima and nagasaki
yes, smoking is bad for you. choose a better vice instead, like cute anime girls
maybe one day my room will be in a museum too!
damn… i can’t use this either… tfw not white
lincoln’s chair when he got killed. I guess that’s his blood. but why isn’t this at the ford’s theater instead? they have a lincoln exhibit of their own. now I’m imaging fights between these museum societies arguing over who gets what artifact when something significant happens
please re-enact this. god bless america
real used bed by george washington!!!
old diner used as a present day diner.the old prices are cheaper on a nominal basis, but those price swings between each item are actually way bigger!
a replica of the first plane. thank you mr wright for now i can buy cunny goods because of your hard work
patron created cat quilt thing. i like it and honestly it is more artful than a lot of ‘modern art’
Second Detroit PIzza from Michigan and Trumbell. I seem to have not taken a picture of the second pizza we got. what the fuck. This one focuses on having a more ‘dense’ dough, rather than the fluffy and soft dough I’m looking for in a Detroit pizza, so not a big fan of it. It’s fine as a ‘normal’ pizza.
welcome to Canada
Technically there are Timmy Horton’s in the U.S. now. But it just seems wrong to go to one in the U.S. For me, it will always only be a Canada-only exclusive. It’s basically a dunkin donuts serving primarily pastries and coffee. But it looks like they also some some normal foods per the menu.
onroute, a portmanteau of ontario and enroute. probably.
These seem to be state sponsored rest stops along Ontario highways. They’re nice. My only complaint is…
99 cent bros…
You can’t sell cans of Arizona for that much! Even if you take it at USD, that’s $2.50 USD!!! It’s not allowed!!!
ok i goofed off a lot and i need to go to sleep bye
