    Me loading up A Link to the Past and still having a full memory of every palace, which areas are secrets, which walls make the satisfying clink clink clink, and how to get the Golden Master Sword without having to check GameFAQs:

    “Hell yeah. Zelda, go put on your green tunic and let’s go save Link.










  • It’s all good as it could’ve been worse - now it’s a cool memory, but certainly one I do not want to relive :)

    In my younger days I loved rollercoasters with brief moments you go upside down. Can’t do that stuff anymore. When I told people about my vertigo and how I couldn’t do those rides, they always just said “take a motion sickness pill, you’ll just be dizzy. Come on!”

    Heh. They never had vertigo. That’s like people thinking a migraine is the equivalent of “a really bad headache”.


  • My spouse and I were on the Universal Studios Escape from Gringotts 4-D ride. We got stuck, thankfully not upside down. But we were at an angle that had me leaning back, but at angled left (think of someone standing in front of you and pushing you to the 7 PM clock position - you’re falling backward at an angle, but not upside down). In theory, that would be fine for most people, but I recently finished a vertigo episode about two months before that left me still with lingering effects. I struggled really hard to do everything I could to not trigger it again or pile on anyone. Considering there was a massive 3-D screen in front of me as well, and just everything about that moment was so nauseating.

    It took maintenance almost 40 minutes to fix whatever problem it was and get the ride working. Decided from that point on to never go on that ride again.

    Haven’t been to a theme park since.

    Edit:

    Sorry if my language here is not articulate, I’ve not been awake for too long and pretty tired.

    Look, Mr. Trump, our Lord and Savior chosen by God, didn’t make any mistake here. He knows his doctor. How many of you know your doctor? You’re too stupid so you don’t know. But Mr. Trump said his doctor’s name, but was actually thinking of a different doctor of his while he has been busy championing for us all. He sees many doctors, not for his horrible shitty lifestyle, but each of his doctors are better than the previous doctor. Each one more cunning, more powerful, sexier, more religious, and did we mention better than the last? “Hyugest doctors of all, ever,” our Lord would say. And how many do the Dems see? Probably one, if even that. Mr. Trump needs those doctors because he’s working to improve his memory, make his brain more big, strengthen his recall so he gets less forgetful of his doctors, and increase the strengthening of his core so that he can empower his raptor-like heel-lift stance and ensure his accordion hands are properly motor-coordinated and stronger than any Democrat - ever. Trump likes doctors, but do you know what he hates? Fake news. And especially - let us be clear - he hates us, too. But we’ll blindly support him because God sent him to save America.



  • Laughs in almost 300 Trump golf days at the expense of taxpayer money, costing upwards of $142 million

    Trump:

    Those are rookie numbers. You have to - and I mean this, really I do - you have to pump those numbers up. This is what real Americans are all about, is the freedom for us to rest. Ben Gazi, Sleepy Joe, they don’t know that. It’s such a shame. Tragic, really. And I have to tell you fine folks, if you don’t pump those vacation numbers up, and I do just that, by the way. I was talking to my friend, let’s just call him Vlad, so I says - and you won’t believe this - I says, “What does it take to game better at golf?” And he turns to me and goes, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” And he didn’t know either! Hardly anyone knows how to vacation better than me, I guess I’ve just got a smart— * Gestures vaguely at head * — you know what. And see, this is what real Americans are all about. I golf. Don’t we all want beachfront property? Look, you can ask scientists and they’ll tell you, just as I’m telling you now, that the election was stolen. So I golfed? Who wouldn’t? It’s the only way to, and really I mean this - it’s just tragic. Sad day in America, real sad. But they don’t know that. We just have to take it all back, and stand up for our freedoms, isn’t that right? I’d think so. Make sure to vote them out, and on uh September Firth, make your voice heard. Sleepy Vlad? He’s fake news, always has been. Doesn’t know what’s golfing on, and no one - and I mean that - no one knows more about tennis than I do.
