There was a factory level giving me trouble, if memory serves.

Infinite Spanish sounds similar to Duolingo. I remember that being fun.

I got a couple levels past the one WhatCulture kept complaining about (a bridge one), and I think I'm decently close to the end. "The High Road" was a couple levels or so ago for me I believe.

I can agree with the control being the issue to an extent, but ultimately the developer said they made the hit boxes a bit weird and I figured I could get used to that. I definitely used plenty of checkpoints though. I think the camera was a bigger issue for me in several cases.

Incredibles LEGO sounds pretty fun, especially if it has both movies in it. I get why you have to go through the sequel stuff first, since it's recent and the game is really aimed at kid being exposed to 2 first. Still, I get why you'd think that's a bit weird.

Well, if that's the case, I may actually go ahead and get back on. I'm pretty available these days, seeing how my job is now finding a job (and eventually, at some point, getting off my ass and signing up for this VIP KID thing someone was kind enough to give me a referral code for; you'd think $22/hour would motivate me more, but when you teach and expect a vacation ...). I just have enough tweets on there to wonder if I'll get "James Gunn"'d at some point, which freaks me out way more in the middle of job searching. Then again, I never made THOSE jokes, so I'm probably just paranoid.

I wasn't accusing you of spoiling anything, sorry. I just meant I was going to skip that part just in case. I ended up listening to it, but didn't comment on here cause I think we already discussed what you mentioned on Twitter.

I want to see how I do in Trivial Pursuit categories ...

I would love a video of your Bentley.

I did a ten album challenge and a seven book challenge. Guess I'll do the others as well.

I actually enjoyed what I played of Crash 1 and was welcoming the compact level design and super-precise platforming challenges to a point. Having said that, I think I may take your advice and work backwards in order to get more out of the experience. I think I need to finally abandon the shame associated with not wanting to continue games I find difficult or frustrating. There are just too many I want to see through to the end to adopt that mentality and I'm not sure the challenge is really adding anything to my experience after a point.

Having said that, I do want to feel the gratification of completing all three games and in the context of a platformer I'm in my element enough it's not a dealbreaker; but I think adult me needs to learn it's ok to take breathers from things that ultimately don't help the rest of my life.

Congratulations on all the exciting stuff you have going on, Patrick! Since I'm at a crossroads in my life, I think I'll take your advice and start blindly investing in BitCoin.

I didn't know about that Mortal Kombat movie involving James Wann (Hereditary director producing an MK flick? Yes, please) and Russo. Is that related to that short that came out on YouTube forever ago?

That was some uh ... interesting dead air at the end. That's not an editing suggestion; just what I'm telling myself I heard.
