I was always fascinated by Newgrounds the most. It had the niche variety and dark humor that I still to this day enjoy.
The golden days of Mario sprite getting high and murdered. Also becoming super saiyan.

I like them not only for the artistic expression they welcome, but also that they're the only ones who give a damn about flash game preservation.

I think stupids (like me) should die since all they do is harm the world
I think you have self-esteem issues.

Five Guys, although expensive, has better tasting food.
Barely even more expensive these days, a combo meal at McDonald's will run you $15 or more. Tons of better options for that same price.

It's fine to be online as long as you arent a pre-teen
I honestly don’t even think teens should be online. Zoomers and Gen A were directly raised online and both generations are completely fucked

Unlimited screen time turn kids into popsicles
Or worse, they are groomed into some bullshit. Politically active teens screaming talking about political issues they don’t understand. Teens who convinced themselves they have some mental disorder that they don’t understand. Not to mention the complete disconnection from reality. It’s fucking awful seeing some mentally unhinged statements and seeing them come from a teen or young adult, all groomed by online losers.

We millennials were fortunate enough to to live in a world without smartphones for a while, but it kind of became obvious this country would be headed downhill after 9/11. Which is to say: GWB set the education policy which had been in effect until 2015, and it shows. That much screen time is bad for developing minds, and it's not just that they consume content, but also the absolute shit quality of content that they consume.

I probably would too as a teen/kid growing up now, but callous as it may sound, the event itself didn't matter as much as the repercussions/fall out from it. The Patriot Act took away a number of freedoms, as example.

9/11 was the tip of the ice berg, that's when America started to crumble. Not only it affected the economy but it's the way that we forget to think and reflect our actions in response to what happens in our daily lives.

    The cartridge I pulled out was one of those Ace3DS+ clones that was one of the 208&423 in 1 deals.

    @SylverReZ Yeah, I've been aware of them. The $32 price tag was too good to pass up.

    I figured the only thing in memory would be the cartridge ID and the icon. I haven't loaded anything off it in a while.

    Though, that cartridge is what I learned to build Ace3DS stuff from.

    The funny thing is, I made my own icons for it too before I found a repository of icons for things that it didn't have within the kernal.
