Whatever Matt Feels Like Posting

If you're not into Super Smash Bros. or Super Mario Maker... and maybe even if you ARE into those games but aren't as obsessed with Mary O. as I am... then this entry will probably be of no interest to you and you should probably skip it unless you REALLY want to know what goes on inside my head. :P


Being the Nintendo nerd I am, ever since the first Super Smash Bros. I sometimes tried to imagine what it would be like if various characters (video game or otherwise) that weren't playable in any SSB games yet were.

But I don't think I've ever come up with a complete moveset for one until now. Usually all I think of is:
- "What would Kirby look like if he copied this character?"
- "What would this character's alternate costumes be?"
- (for characters who aren't from a series that's already in the game) "What would this character's series symbol be?"
- MAYBE a game mechanic that would be unique to that one character
- MAYBE taunts and MAYBE special moves and a Final Smash.

And usually I don't write about or draw any of these ideas either - just think about it.


But lately, due to my constantly being obsessed with Mary O. (who unfortunately is still obscure enough that I feel like I have to link to that article again), I've been thinking more and more about what it'd be like if she and Yamamura were playable in Super Smash Bros. as a 2-in-1 character similar to Duck Hunt.

In fact I first thought of this idea at some point before April Fools' Day 2017 (see the music tag for that entry), but lately I've been thinking more and more about how this could work, enough that I think I have ideas for their entire hypothetical moveset by now.

And I keep thinking about said moveset so much that writing an entry about it is probably the only way I'm ever going to stop being so distracted thinking about it, even though I doubt it'd be interesting to anyone here (none of you are as obsessed with Mary O. as I am, and a lot of you probably aren't even into Super Smash Bros. enough for this to be of interest to you). So I'll LJ-cut it so I won't bore you. :)


( Blah blah blah Mary O. moving sideways )

It feels so weird that I've put all this thought into making an entire moveset and such for Mary O. & Yamamura for literally no reason since I doubt I'd be making a Super Smash Bros. fangame or hack anytime soon... and it feels especially weird to actually be typing out this ridiculous idea after spending so much time only thinking about it...

Well, now you know what goes on inside my head! :P

You know Super Smash Bros., right? That fighting game starring such iconic video game all-stars as Larry, Mario, Princess Twinkie, Yogi, Kong 1, Zelda, The Beautiful Woman Interviewing Me, Shamu, Pudgy Airplane, Donald Duck's Offspring, Wombat?, Crash Bandicoot, Yellow Man, Charlie Brown, King Arthur, Knights of the Crooked Sword, Pegasus Dude, The Princess of Something, Triangle-Nosed Boy, The Unknown Yoga Person, Kid With a Crazy Sword Thing, Garfield and Friends, Something the Hedgehog, a LEGO, Happy, and more? ;)

Yeah, apparently, at some point around the time the 3DS and Wii U versions were released, there was a trend of people on YouTube showing their relatives (or, in at least one case, random people) all the playable characters' artwork and asking them to try to guess their names.

These are all of the videos of this sort that I've found so far*, and most of them are just so funny that even if you have no interest in video games whatsoever, I recommend that you watch at least one! :D (I highly recommend not reading the comments on certain ones, though...)




( Cut because I included 12 more, but they're great! )

*Except for one that's in Spanish and doesn't have enough subtitles for me to understand anything besides the characters' actual names. Also, eventually I found that there were so many that I decided to narrow it down by just watching ones that had at least a thousand views for now (though that was after I watched a couple that had less).

Offer up this entry to Some Goddess Person

This past week has been pretty stressful, because even with pathvain_aelien's help, both my Computer Science essay and my career portfolio took all weekend because I kept procrastinating throughout the week. But at least it's over now and there's much less homework this week!

Remember those unusual online clocks I found? I found another one, which was part of the reason I was procrastinating so much:

http://base36.org/

This one doesn't seem to have as much potential as the rest, though; it's only synchronized to seconds, thus causing the other units to be "36 seconds", "about one third of an hour", "about 13 hours", "about 19½ days", and "about 23 months", which don't correlate very well to the normal clock or calendar system. Still interesting, though!

Two more world domination quizzes:





And another completely random quiz:



I find it depressingly ironic that the one person on here that I've actually thought was dead (several times) ended up being the squirrel that died... I'M SORRY FOR NOT PICKING "AWWW, HOW SAD"! :( :( :(

*This date and time in the Base 36 clock is actually not too far off; it's on September 23, 2012. Hmm...

Fall victim to my mind control-- *cough* I mean repost this entry

Since I included ᔕჷ :ʇᴉɯᴉƮ pǝǝdS in my userpic polls even though I had already made it (I just forgot to move it to the "recently made but not uploaded to LJ" list), and since I'm going to make some of these userpics whenever I have free time but don't feel like working on Moya's Space Log, I might as well include the already made userpics in the polls. The rest are still here and here.

Descriptions of new ideas:

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP - From the X-Files episode "Three of a Kind": Scully, drugged up, says, "My medical opinion: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!" and claps
Conga of the Apocalypse - From the Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People episode Homestar Ruiner: the Drive-Thru Whale says, "When the End Times come, we will all dance the Conga of the Apocalypse."
Dead Cows are Boring - From the X-Files episode "Bad Blood": Scully is not paying attention to Mulder's slides and says, "Dead cows are SOOOOO boring!"
Doubting Luma - a lemon yellow Luma says to Mario, "We have faith that you'll beat that monster, Mario! Uh, you will, right?!"
Green Pipe - Bowser says, "Why don't you just run off and go find some green pipe to hide in?!"
He Comes at You With a Knife and--BANANA CREAM! - Clyde Bruckman predicting how Mulder will die in the X-Files episode "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose"
If You Drink This, You Will Vomit a Wedding - From the advertisement for Powerthirst
No, YOU'RE Infected! - From the X-Files episode "Ice": Mulder & Scully hold each other at gunpoint, alternating saying, "No, YOU'RE infected!"
Xhoe-Files - Another one from Bad Blood: Mulder points to a guy's shoes and says, "THIS MAN'S SHOES ARE UNTIED!"
ΔΧΧΔΔΧ?! - the first thing Master Luma says in Super Mario Galaxy 2

Not be sick of these

For my 200th LJ entry (my profile will say 201, but that's because I haven't deleted the welcome entry that's automatically made for new users), I decided to do something completely pointless: take the first word from my first post, the second word from my second post, the third word from my third post, and so on, all the way up to this one. (If post #X has Y words, and Y is less than X, then the remainder of X ÷ Y is Z, and I use the Zth word instead, or the last if Z is zero.) And yes, this is a ripoff of 160 Seconds.

( So here goes )

( Context )

While doing this, I've noticed that I have quite a few posts that are exactly 48 words long, by the way. Coincidence?

On a less pointless note, I had to get my braces tightened again today. And this time, there are rubber bands holding the top and bottom braces together (which have to be changed every time I eat or brush my teeth, and also before I go to bed), so it probably won't pull a my wisdom teeth this time. :(

Well, due to some hole in the fabric of space and time, I passed the essay portion of the COMPASS. Hole in the fabric of space and time, you and I are gonna get along just fine!
