I'll take sweet as fuck origami over impotent shouting any day. What was the next thing that happened in that movie cause I haven't seen it I've just heard that dull clip a billion times. Did they figure out what to do after their shouting (not protest or riot apparently) or did they just close the window again? Maybe they shouted at the depression some more

it was a shallow rig and they're not sure any oil spilled. There were lots of reports by the coast guard in the morning about a mile long oil sheen spotted by the explosion but now they say that there's no spill

good job BP helping us put one more foot in the grave.

As I was moving to my new place I found some old PSX games in a box that I can only assume hasn't been touched since the last time I moved. On a whim I decided to play through Chrono Cross again for nostalgia's sake.

Apparently I forgot how needlessly depressing and convoluted the story actually is.

I always thought Chrono Cross sucked. Not even 'disappointing in a way that feels more so because expecting to top Chrono Trigger is just asking to be disappointed' just like they're really fucking polar opposite games Chrono Trigger had an ECONOMY to it or something like it was short but felt epic because of the multiple time periods just felt like a lot of game packed into a shorter amount of time it felt pretty cinematic for its day and was probably pretty character-based I don't know? Chrono Cross had 247 characters with 3 minutes of screentime and had PSX Final Fantasy game sort of bloat with 2 minute summons (even if that didn't happen it still had elements of bloat to it) Chrono Trigger was sort of fantastical with the past future shit but it was also like walk around the present little 16-bit birds fly by world is small enough going to the next village is like approximately the same time as running to neighbor friend's house really gives a sense that the world is fragile and like you are just this kid who has all shit dropped on you. Probably imagining the game as much RICHER than it really was but Chrono Cross was the Star Wars Episode I-III of RPGs, seriously. Let me throw as much shit/playable characters as I can in every scene and make the game world overbearingly detached from reality and kind of childish despite supposed to have this deep story. Whoa you go from a jungle to a volcano to toxic waste dump to dinosaur tar pits to GHOST PIRATE SHIP within an hour of playing the game it's like they just threw random crap to see what would stick and didn't care about the cohesiveness/making it feel like Chrono Trigger at all. Well ok Chrono Trigger had dinosaurs and robots and overly childish stuff too but that was the reason it was GREAT ADVENTURE Chrono Cross you're just in this wacky detached world even before the alternate universe stuff happens

Edit: Really that Star Wars 60 minute review should be required viewing for everyone trying to make entertainment whether it's movies or games etc. this is the exact problem with Chrono Cross... Chrono Trigger was like Chrono was Luke Skywalker at a glance it seems like fantasy world but it's subtly relatable because Luke is like bored to death on this desert planet with nothing to do Chrono is in 1000 AD apparently most boring time period and he has was it 1 or 2 friends (no love interest because Lucca was lesbian or something (lol she does things with her hands/engineering that instantly makes her a lesbian)) then all of a sudden he is on wild adventure... meet new people see new places kill lots of dudes. Chrono Cross is like Episode I who is the main character supposed to be?? Is it Serge, Kid, uh one of the other 42 characters, Lynx is our bad guy but I don't know maybe he isn't maybe he is hiding secret agenda for good - can;t remember the game but it reeked of Episode I like if the story made no sense somewhere maybe it really did make no sense and why should the player be expected to follow what's going on follow all these random characters we don't see again and just because they are so fleshed out in the game designer's head doesn't mean we know who they are why we care they all reeked of cliche stock characters from other games anyway cyborg who can't feel love... or can he?? Old grizzled fart warrior mysterious gypsy woman (not sure if the last two even exist in Chrono Cross but they probably do!)

lol wall of text

might've just been compounded by playstation load times too. And I remembered even a simple TEXTBOX had massive slowdown there were nice touches with the accents on different characters I guess but I would've rather had readable text as I'm mashing the X button trying to make it go faster because any pacing there might've been is ruined (textboxes in games should always feel responsive/fast/natural like skimming through a book even if it's at the expense of your pimped-out spinning gold jewel-encrusted cursor graphic)

Edit: haha I am so bitter and stuff but I think I made a halfway good argument

awwww dude the tanker just ran aground a sandbar, its not that bad. Dudes should have seen that coming on the radar but you can pull a tanker off of a sandbar with two  or three tugs easy. And there won't be any damage unless they fuck up big time, sand can't cut open a steel double bottom hull. I thought it ran aground some rock faces up in canada or a reef or something. Sandbar ain't shit it'll be ok.

its a pretty big mistake for a mate and helmsman to make and kind of dangerous environmentally as in a tanker ran aground period but with it being a sandbar theres no real threat to the environment and they should be able to handle it just fine.

ran aground means they probably just hit a shallow spot of water too I don't think they actually ran ashore with it but I didn't read the whole article either

WOOOOOO!

yeah so why can't Firefox next generation advanced web browser like, keep the place when you zoom in on a large amount of text, like a blog that's many screens tall

also I have never used the zoom feature on an internet forum maybe there is some psychological basis for that i.e. nobody really wants to hear anybody else's opinions ever
