Ugh. As a Metroid fan, this makes me sick - Nintendo would do well to pretend this game never happened as much as possible.

ToV: Have the whole party back together, yaaay.

Went and took on the Gigantos BRUTAL, and kinda died horribly the first time.

Then I decided to control Rita instead of Yuri and haha wow.

That is absolutely the worst combination since I got wasted and decided that if I love Dr. Pepper and I love Wild Turkey I would love them combined.

If it's fizzy and sweet, I'll probably be able to drink it.

So that would work for me too.

I'm such a soda whore.

Shock and awe as someone in the DL finally realises that they have no taste at all.

This is one small step for a nerd, one giant leap for a forum full of them.

01. Starscream v Wario - Swimming Race

Buoyancy.

02. Dr. Emmitt Brown v James Bond - Talking to Fish

Even if he'd confuse the poor fish with his technobabble.

03. Goku v Odie - Pod Racing

They'd both crash and get DQd, except Goku just blows up anything he's about to hit.

04. Prinny v Aya Brea - American Gladiator

05. Samuel Vimes v Darkwing Duck - Questing for the Holy Grail

Gets dangerous.

06. Goddess Ashera v Lina Inverse - Applied Pyrotechnics

Creativity > raw power. Not that Lina's terribly creative, but Ashera.

07. Judge Doom v Igor, Persona - Win the Big Game

08. Pikachu, Anime v Lenneth Valkyrie - Poker

The hilarious part of statement is that the whole reason I ever became interested in Japan was because my best friend in elementary school was half-Japanese.

A better reason than Dragon Ball Z I suppose.

ToV - Poopin' around the Heracles. The Schwann fight was pretty cool, a little challenging but in the fun way. Heracles is also the first FUCK YOU TALES dungeon in the game and it's taken this long, so I'm pretty impressed - and it's still not nearly as bad as a lot of prior games' dungeons.

Rita is starting to get her really good skills like Magic Combo, now to figure out which Altered Artes to tag her with and see if controlling her kills shit faster.

And apparently, dropping Estelle and just having Karol and Raven using healing Strike Artes keeps you alive better later on, even if not having a healer feels like sacrilege to me in most RPGs. I like my traditional parties too much, I suppose.

Now, I'm at forty hours, and expecting a sixty hour game minimum... and since I don't know what the hell they're going to fill a whole ten to twenty hours more game with, I imagine this is the point where the pacing grinds to a complete halt.

The one that comes to mind is Mad Cow, which I know, does not actually live in muscle tissue.

Also: god, my delicate culinary sensibilities have been offended by Alex's parents. FUCK.

This one was my medical sensibilities being offended by, apparently, Boy Scouts.

Curse them and their lack of baked goods.

The guideline I grew up with was "it's done when there's no more pink.  If there's pink in the meat, that means it didn't cook all the way through, and you're apt to get E. coli and die if you eat it."

Hygenic commentary aside, I still very much prefer thoroughly cooked meat.  Hal's tried to get me to at least order medium sometimes but I remain unconvinced.  >_>

E. coli contaminates the outside of the steak due to unclean butchering procedures. As long as the outside is seared, you can't get it, even if the inside is raw and bloody. I... imagine there's something that can live in the muscle itself that might pass on to humans, but that'd be about a million times more rare than e. coli.

Ground beef, on the other hand, does need to be plenty hot the whole way through, because everything is being mashed together, so any contaminated surface can get the whole batch.

Depends on the cut, as Rob said. I responded Medium-rare though, because I will do some meh steaks medium, and I'm not too picky about food in general (as long as it's not like a well-done fillet mignon).
