imagine if competitive pokemon battles allowed items

the stall strategy would be unbeatable, and everything would end in a tie always

it occurs to me that at least one pokemon has a name that's just straight-up an english word entirely unrelated to the pokemon: slaking

Interesting statistics thing: as n increases, the chance of a 1-in-n chance failing n times in a row tends towards 1/e, which is more than 30%, and a far cry from the 0% that a lot of people seem to think it is

poll: Which eevee has the best shiny colors? 

I already know how at least one person is going to vote on this, if she does

what's the demonym for someone from Lesbos anyway? "lesbian" is kind of taken

"because we're out of the bounds of the demo, you're going to start seeing bosses that have moves that seemingly do nothing, and that's because they actually do do nothing"

this is also a speedrun of a demo version of an obscure rpg so there's the occasional "I'd explain why this trick works, but we just have no idea"

watching a speedrun where the commentator says that softlocks are more common than dying to random encounters

that's kind of interesting

(the game being run is specifically the demo version of wild arms, which actually contains a beta version of the full game and you can actually get to and beat the final boss if you skip the part where the demo's meant to end with a glitch. it's very unfinished and so crashes and softlocks aren't unexpected)

I always appreciate it, when watching speedruns, when someone says "the only thing that could possibly be a problem here is if this very specific sequence of things happens, and that's really unlikely", and then just watch the look on their face as that very specific sequence of unlikely things unfolds

why do people still do the (xxx) xxx-xxxx phone number format anyway

it's not like the area code has any special meaning anymore

i don't even know the person in question but now i have a notification from someone i have no reason to block or anything and there is no way to hide avatars
