That ever I logged on to poast them right!
#RandomGameSaturday Golf

There were golf games before this, but Nintendo's was the first one that played well. It helped define how all golf games should play going forward.

If you've ever played a golf video game made after 1984, you have HAL Labs, Satorou Iwata, and Nintendo's Golf to thank.

The Ontario Line construction building giving off real blockhouse vibes.

Imagine getting the judge to state this about you in the courtroom.

(For what it's worth, her legal team's strategy was also that she was too dumb to possibly be a part of a conspiracy.)

Amazing details in the Star article on Wedding's money man.

Because I never look at the system maps, I didn't even notice that Lines 5 & 6 are now marked on them.

Both Laurel & Hardy and Abbott & Costello are relegated to the blurb for Olsen & Johnson for some reason.

More famous than that pair, according to it, but apparently not enough to make the list.

If they're refusing to make the report public, I'm going to guess it did not recommend what they're contemplating.

My favourite Toronto parks rule is that it is a bylaw violation to even step foot into a city-owned park between midnight & 5:30 AM.

"No Winter Maintenance" is the city's true motto.

And Rich Johnston thought to ask O'Neil about all this, and he's mostly diplomatic while throwing some shade at Shooter with that final line.

Byrne, unsurprisingly, blames Shooter.
November 25, 2025 at 5:36 AM
I looked it up, because I was sure someone asked Shooter about it at some point, and he blames O'Neil for the state of Byrne's run.

Remember: when someone asks you if you're a god, say "I am from beyond."

There are very few films I've seen six times. By after like the 2nd or 3rd watch I start noticing all the little flaws & they start bothering me.

But, I guess these two probably are the answers.

"Diskette" was an IBM-originated term & referred to any floppy disk starting with the 8" ones in the early '70s.

It was meant to distinguish the smaller capacity floppies from larger disks.

This is either the last or 2nd to last Compile shoot 'em up released before they pivoted to seemingly nothing but Puyo Puyo & RPGs.

Of the 2 shooters they released for the Game Gear, it's the better one & is representative of their design philosophy for the genre.

That was a Sony ECM-51.

The best part about them is that they're telescoping, so you can adjust the ridiculousness as necessary.

Most of the pre-1900 entries look to be either mistakes (modern books with the wrong date, things like "the F.A.E.") or Scottish writers — suggesting it may have been a sometimes used variant in Scottish English, but not elsewhere.

e.g. Allan Ramsay's "The Gentle Shepherd" from 1725.

It looks bad, but you need to read the criteria to get a true sense of how bad the category is.

They hired a 3rd party to rank the top 25 US podcasts using criteria like "advertising revenue". This list was then put out as an invitation for those podcasts to submit entries to be one of the nominees

They have their own brewer.

The name for a little shop where you have a coffee & maybe a small bite to eat is literally just the French word for "coffee".
