Honestly, one reason I'm having trouble with this one as a former educator is cause I feel there's already a little too much gamification. At a certain point, you need to learn to do boring shit or hard things you don't want to instead of expecting everyone to meet you where you are. That kind of defeats the purpose of self-growth. 

Having said that, I do think making things competitive helps engage students in a way that tests their abilities without simply giving them all the answers, but the fact I used a lot of Kahoot!s, scaffolding etc. per the requests of the Center for Teaching and Learning isn't the most creative answer to this question. Also, a lot of what I taught was using Adobe Suite programs and writing, which are things you learn through doing, getting feedback and critique, and doing some more. 

Still, I'll come up with something ...

Hey, I'm Joey! I need to buy candy, come to think of it. 

Oh I wouldn't buy it at full price when it's already a year or so old. Especially not now that I'm $26.08 behind in my Wants category on Goodbudget. At least I get paid soon and have healthy Needs and Savings/Loan accounts. lol

Twitter gets a lot more annoying if you follow this asshole by the handle @joemikestep.

I can't read this cause I don't want anything spoiled. Is there a fire level? An ice level? Does Mario eventually save Princess Peach and/or someone else it turns out was really the one in danger? I can't have the experience tainted! 

You're doing a vampire video the weekend Castlevania Season 2 is back on Netflix. Have you watched that? I kinda love it. I look forward to finally playing Symphony of the Night as well. 

I got a bit of a laugh from the Peter Blagoyavich (I'm not Googling the spelling) part of the vampire Top 5 video when I misheard people were "visited by pizza in the middle of the night." 

This is my favorite of the F-Zero games cause of the soundtrack. GX is probably better put together and that's what I own, but the EDM influence in those tracks just doesn't do it for me in a racer like metal can. 

I need to buy Rolling Stones stuff. There are certain songs of theirs I just love, like "Beast of Burden" and "Brown Sugar." Not so much "Satisfaction" or the more obvious hits save "Paint it Black."

Or just do both at the same time for a long time, like Trent Reznor. It does seem most successful entertainers have hidden talents and jobs most wouldn't know about. 

I can see that. It was a pretty creepy scene. My main issue with that movie is it reminded me too much of The Last Exorcism, which has you guessing "psychological or supernatural" throughout and gives you the answer in the last scene. Hereditary felt like that, but with the answer given in the middle of the movie. A friend's interpretation based on this short story The Yellow Wallpaper contended it was in fact all psychological and that made Hereditary more interesting to me as a possibly more layered movie than what's on screen.
