  • Might’ve just been the glass slipper my hands needed then. Felt like a peak optimization of the sony layout, least in my mitts.

    I know several folks who prefer the offset Xbox style, but I always appreciated the more symmetrical design of PlayStation. Thumbs were same height on controller for FPS or fighting genres, which I did a bunch of back then. Didn’t mind offset thumbs for other games like God of War. I think the designer in me also appreciated sony’s cleaner aesthetic as well.



  • Fully, a MASSIVE amount of what I’m into now came from Tony Hawk games and [adult swim] and the trajectory that put me on. [adult swim] was for sure the MTV of my generation.

    By the time I was watching MTV, it was still some TRL and music vids, but also a big dose of Room Raiders, etc… And it eventually fell out of fashion. [AS] definitely had their finger on the pulse of what the cool cats were to tho. Such a hip scene. I still vividly recall a bump for Boondocks featuring Flying Lotus’ song Massage Situation that felt mind blowing.

    Weird to think where I’d be without either.










  • I got into a fender bender with someone I knew from college. Spun out on ice so we meet front to front when we bumped. Once the cars stopped I swear we both practically did the cartoon eye rub of disbelief lolol.

    Not mine but old school crew story. Couple of lads bumped into each other in a bar in Europe - we from the States. Neither knew the other was traveling. Heard a distinct laugh across the pub and rest is history.



  • Oh, I hear ya, but I bet you’d be surprised by what you could endure on a long enough timeline (and a thicc enough jacket). Humans are surprisingly resilient when there’s enough time to adapt.

    Summer’s my favorite season by a mile. Even Fall is hard to enjoy cause the drops in temp feel terrible at first. 65° positively brisk. But every year, across the state, Spring will start thawing and soon as we above freezing dudes bust out the shorts & tee’s (usually one or other, ie: hood & shorts, jeans & tees). 50° suddenly picnic weather.

    But also shhh… we kind of a sleeper state. Don’t blow up my brunch joint 😂
