I have somehow reached the point where I have ordered something specifically for one YouTube video. This is a troubling trend
@mwl Wikipedia confirms my suspicion that Elmer is the bull on the glue logo. But it also claims that Elmer is the mate of Elsie the Cow, who is the mascot for Borden Dairy

@Edmonds_Scanner honestly, that would be a step up from my current neighbors
I had nothing better to do last night, so I recorded myself playing Popeye for #NES, and then I posted it to YouTube

I think my copy of The Goonies II for #NES might need to be cleaned
King's Knight for #nes is a lousy game, but it has one of the most refreshingly-direct game over screens I've ever seen

@LucyWinter I actually tracked down a copy of Slalom for the NES so I'd have an excuse to say the word more often
I wasn't sure if I could make a #playthrough of Spot: The Videogame for #nes seem interesting. You can see my attempt here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HTCCcwQ-4E
I'm definitely not spending my evening cheating at old 'athletic competition' #nes games by using a turbo controller
If you ever wanted to watch me attempt to play a #nes game intended for small children, then I have some good news

You ever do that thing where you log in to a server for some reason and you discover that you forgot to stop that ping you started last week?

@lilithsaintcrow Knowing would spoil the magic
Oh the things that can be found at the used #book store

@lilithsaintcrow @sjgochenour Like anything it depends on... a lot (usually the higher up, the better), but if you have an old set of rabbit ears hanging around, it's worth a shot. If you get really ambitious a site like https://www.antennaweb.org/ can help you figure out which direction to aim your receiver
@lilithsaintcrow @sjgochenour Shooting television programs through the air is still a thing, I make my living doing it. With the digital explosion a few years ago, there's a lot of stuff out there now (like everything, most of it is trash, but it's still out there). You just need an antenna.
