Whatever Matt Feels Like Posting

Oh man!!! Could this be the day that Nintendo FINALLY brings back Mary O.?! It's probably too late to have her be part of the tutorial, but maybe there could be DLC jobs in the story mode and some of them could be by her?? Or at the very least, a Mary O. Mii costume as DLC??


Version 1.1.0

On October 1st, 2019, an update was made for playing online with friends, minor changes and bug fixes.[17]

Course World

Network Play
Added "Play with friends"
Added features to "Nearby Play"
Added "LAN Play"

Official Makers
Added a list of Official Makers in Leaderboards


...oh. I see Nintendo still doesn't care about the feelings of Mary O. fanboys like me. (Unless Mary O. is one of the "official makers" like she was in the first SMM, but I think we all know that won't be the case.) :(


( the more rant-y portion of this entry is cut for your convenience )

First of all, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY to Enya and/or Schrödinger's Enya!!! Hope it was a good one!

In otherelated news, I'm back from my trip to Puerto Rico! Overall, the trip was great, but it was also very tiring, so I'm also glad I'm finally home :)

¿Gafas?

Aw, gnat! LJ is down for maintenance, so I'm gonna type stuff to post in Notepad and post it once LJ is back.

Anyways, I accidentally fell asleep after school today. Again. This time, though, once I woke up, I went back to sleep on purpose.

I then played Dungeons & Dragons with pathvain_aelien and Stephen. This is the first time I've used my tiger Garfield in battle and the first time I leveled up in the game. There was also this funny part where Stephen asked P_A what her charisma modifier was, and she thought he said "Christmas modifier." I've gotta make that into a new profile name now. By the way, my new character is a druid named Juke; we abandoned the campaign that has Cranther. Poor Cranther.

Also, what's weirding me out is how much updates/maintenance is happening on the same day. First, my computer apparently messed up during updates and went into Startup Repair (which I cancelled and started normally, allowing my computer to finish the updates), then ICQ automatically updated, and now LiveJournal maintenance. Is today National Maintenance Day or something?

Aw, come on! I'm only 20% bored! How does that count as "BORED"?

Okay, now LJ is back. Time to post!

Repost (now with 20% more boredom)

There are several misheard SSBB theme lyric videos, but this is my favorite so far.

EDIT ON SEPTEMBER 17TH, 2017: Well, this particular video is down now, but search for "super smash bros. brawl misheard lyrics" and maybe you'll find the other ones I've seen. And I'm gonna try and recreate the lyrics from the one that's down now from memory:

I'll be the Darth [at this point, the video said "lolstarwars?"]
Eat a noob
So this is Yoshi's feet
If not here has a party
I'll be the Darth
Eat a noob
He's going through a bread [or maybe it was "pulling through a bread"]
You can't eat with a spoon :(
Why are there some videos?
Why, only throw them on Venus!
There's more people
He's porting
Huh? Are more people speaking?
WHAT, LINK?!
HE'S LAME?!
NOOOO! I'M STARVING!!
Hey...
Yes, more please
Oh, jeez, let me in
We only need for best people yes-men, yeah
There is a condo [or maybe it was "combo"]
You, yeah, don't expect congrats
WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Throw post on Venus

I forgot to post this yesterday, but I've recently noticed a new thing that bugs me: when adults don't play video games enough (if at all; in this case, they just don't play it enough) to know the names of most of the characters.

My reasoning is: At the autism intervention group I go to (which I am probably the highest functioning kid at, btw), one of my friends there tried to imitate a Goomba by sticking one row of teeth out (because Goombas do have two small fangs even though they've never sucked Mario's blood), putting his arms at his side, and sidestepping. He asked me if he was doing the fangs right, but was interrupted when one of the adults came and asked what he was doing. He explained it, but that led to the adults thinking it was "Ooma" or "Oomba". Once we corrected them, another of the adults mentioned that in the real world, Goomba is a derogatory word for Italian-Americans. I told her that that was "goombah", and she just said, "Just be careful."

Anyone know where there's a tape that says "Goomba" 285,194 times?

So I went to a belated birthday party for a friend of mine at an autism intervention group I go to. At one point, some of us were playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was playing as Mr. Game & Watch for one match, and whenever I used his Final Smash (turning into an octopus for those who don't know), the friend that the party was for, being a fan of the Lazer Collection videos, said "DR. OCTAGONAPUS!!" At one point, I said "DR. OCTAGONAPUS & WATCH!!" when using the Final Smash. Guess what he thought I said?

...

"Pucker up because we're about to have some lunch."

...Yeah. Well, that's what I have as my "real" name on my profile now. Yay!

The funniest three things I ever heard today:

So, I have a project in reading class where I have to pick four quotes in Night that have to do with one of the symbols in the book and explain each quote. I picked fire as the symbol, and had asked pathvain_aelien if she could help me with it, and she agreed, but then she said she doesn't remember any instances of fire in Night. Then this happened:

ME: (something about the part where Mrs. Schächter says, "Fire! I see a fire! I see a fire!")
PATHVAIN_AELIEN: Wait, what?
ME: You know, that woman on the bus who--
PATHVAIN_AELIEN: Did you just call her Trogdor?

Later on, when pathvain_aelien was getting something:

PATHVAIN_AELIEN'S BOYFRIEND: Come on, Trogdor!

Even later, when we were talking about the project again:

PATHVAIN_AELIEN'S BOYFRIEND: Is Trogdor a symbol?

Sure, the Trogdor comes in the night, but not the one by Elie Wiesel.
