you're a good bunch and I appreciate you all probably more than you think

Sometimes I like to appreciate that some of the things that seem pretty simple and straightforward are actually some of the biggest open problems in physics

like "how does gravity work", or "why does time go in a direction" or "why are there things that are so big", or "what the hell is going on with turbulence"

and then sometimes questions that seem very counterintuitive like "why does hot water freeze faster than cold water"

the situation in question was a random death when attempting to enter the castle; the cause is that a bit of floor collision got deleted or moved by the corruption just outside the door, but mario could still get close enough to the door to trigger the door opening animation, but said animation puts him over the missing floor, which causes death since it's out of bounds

you know you've watched a lot of pannenkoek videos when you can watch a vinesauce sm64 corruptions video and think "i know exactly what caused that random death"

question about meme origin 

what's the origin of the "i want a girl with a short skirt and a long X" meme? what was X in the original? what _was_ the original?
