Hi, my name is Jason Scott.

7 of my relatives died in the holocaust so abruptly and extensively that their names are blank in the family tree because everyone who knew their names was also killed.

I am not a Nazi Sympathizer.

I mean, congratulations. You found a way to infuriate me.

That thing you see otherwise that you don't like is not me being furious.
Days since the Internet has driven me to take a walk outside to work off red-vision levels of anger Image

So, back when the Charlesgate and Fensgate dorms were a thing at Emerson College, there was one specific bridge viewable from the dorms that was between where Interstate 90 dumped you and getting into Boston University, and BU students smashing their U-Haul trucks into it.
I've actually believed for some time that the greatest thing is how bright rental trucks are and it should almost be a law they're incredibly bright, because "HELLO, THE DRIVER OF THIS TRUCK NEVER DRIVES TRUCKS"
BONK! Stay on the left side, families driving your BU students in!

You can't really comprehend the full depth of this until you visit the Doyle Estate site
Imagine you control a file folder and you tell the photographer to style your family as if you run an international spy network

This is not a good deal at all, but I feel it's fair to people who paid me money a few years back for a remaining run of BBS Documentary.

I found a very small pile of original BBS Documentary packages. I'm selling them for $500. DM me if you want to pay that ridiculous amount.
Remember, you can download all the ISOs of these DVDs for free here:

archive.org/details/bbsdoc…

And watch it here:

I get asked all the time if I have any left. Now you know: I do but you don't want to pay this for them.

Played 25 minutes of NARITA BOY which was enough to remind me why, even though you think they're designed for people like me, I don't play games like NARITA BOY
From the garbage-truck level of dumping of backstory on your head, followed by slippery platforming, requirement to find zelda-level enemies without zelda-level avoidance, and a sense that THIS is a platform or door NO WAIT JUST DECORATION wait THIS is a platform endlessly.
It's 2021. You can't just pixel-art your way out of this. Make a patreon and send me screensavers. nice big complicated ones.
