A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
She sends it to me every time she has that conversation. It's how I know new girls have started working with her.
Asked a guy I was on a date with if he liked Lego, and he straight-up laughed in my face and said "No, I'm not 7."
There are no single openly nerdy dudes in my area. Makes me sad.
(well, it actually makes me happy that cool people have successfully escaped this hellhole of a town and are probably living much happier & more fulfilling life)
That sucks. Meanwhile as a guy, I haven’t found that nerdy girl yet either. But those matches do happen. My coworker is a giant nerd. LEGO, movies, gaming, the works. She just moved in with an equally nerdy guy. She gave him the LEGO LOTR Barad-dur for his birthday laat month and they built it together. He gives her LEGO botanical sets.
Gotta love LEGO couples :D
You'll find someone. Might require a bit of a car trip, but you'll find someone.
The hardest trouble in nerd dating is finding the nerd
That's because we hide in our pillowforts
So is your wife single?
So is your wife single?
I also choose this guy's wife.
I’ll get in line behind you.
There doesnt need to be a line for you to get behind me in that situation.
Afraid not.
Can you ask her just to be sure?
She says go poach your own unicorn.
Fack! Thanks for asking!
One can't judge a relationship on an image alone but… there's a few redflags on this one. I hope for you they're false alarms.
Those are the red flags I need.
In no way does anyone that must be dragged out of the house have "golden retriever energy"
But I'm still happy for them
I may not fit all aspects of the meme, but enough of it is on point that it's accurate for her.
Hollow Night
All credibility lost.
Nah. My wife also tries to remember the games I play and sometimes almost succeeds like this. This is close enough from a non-gamer wife
Also my wife didn't make the meme she just has the meme saved
You let "Legos" pass but this was the final straw?!?
Very sweet
What adult cares what another adults spouse does in their own free time? Why is someone’s wife having so many conversations they have to make a cringe “meme” to respond to these supposedly frequent conversations? Why is this persons wife straight up attacking other women and saying their spouse is unfaithful as if that is somehow the obvious outcome of thinking Lego is nerdy or whatever the point was
This is made up
If only.
Soo… Hollow Knight. I’ve been looking for a Metroidvania game and this popped up. How does it compare to Metroid? From the trailer footage and the reviews it looks more of a super-precise platformer like Celeste with lots of cruel boss fights.
Hollow Knight is great. The bosses are tough, but manageable. IIRC, the only really tough platforming section is optional. I've been picking Metroidvanias from this list lately and been pretty happy. He also has some good maps for them. https://demajen.co.uk/tierlist.html
i lean more towards the metroid side of the metroidvania genre and i spent around 15 or so hours in hollow knight. it has beautiful design and very deep lore. the map goes on forever. the platforming is tough, but not exceedingly difficult. what made me give up is partially that the combat is too fast and goes on for too long, and partially that it has a corpse run mechanic, which i despise.
at least for a while you can get away with exploring somewhere else when an area seems too daunting, but after a while you hit combat roadblocks which means every failure requires a dash back with half health.
Hollow knight is great, it's one of my favorites. However if you are looking for something to scratch a Metroid itch, I'd suggest looking into Axiom Verge.
Looks awesome, thanks for the tip!
It's a beautiful game. One of the best I've played. I just love the atmosphere, art style and music
It's more focused on combat than platforming (tip: you can bounce off some spikes with a well timed downward aerial attack) and the typical metroidvania exploration and backtracking. Except there's a brutal optional platforming section that I haven't had the courage to face yet 😅
The bosses are tough, but not unfair. Some of the optional ones and the (true) final battle can be a bit frustrating but that makes finally succeeding just all the more satisfying.
Given that it it's a couple of years old now it's cheap to buy even when not on sale, so do yourself the favor and give it a try!
As someone who's quite a ways through the map, what platforming section are you referring to? (Maybe spoiler tag it)
He's referring to the
Path of pain
which is in The White Palace
That's a little passive aggressive of your wife to send that.
Gotta stay sane somehow.
That and she gets tired of telling coworkers about what she did over the weekend and be told that her husband must have something wrong with him since he doesn't like sportsball or going clubbing.
