So if you're a veteran gamer ( up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start) then this is a must. Granted, each game on this disc has a beginning and end, but the replay value of each is out the roof! The graphics are NOT state of the art and the soundtrack isn't something you'd want in your car audio system but that's okay because you're still going to be seeing it in your sleep (Tetris anyone?) and hearing it in your head. ![]() In many games in the series, the player controls a ship known as the Vic Viper. Gradius Collections is a step in that direction if you're looking for a little gaming nostalgia. Gradius (, Guradiusu, / rd.i.s / GRAD-ee-ss) is a series of shooter video games, introduced in 1985, developed and published by Konami for a variety of portable, console and arcade platforms.

It is the first Gradius-named title to incorporate 3D graphics. Remember when video games were good? Remember when it took a little more skill and a few less buttons to play? Remember when they were a little less sophisticated but a lot more fun? Pac Man? Space Invaders? Defender? They didn't have "final bosses" but you were still driven to play until your arms cramped and your hands were numb.

![]() ![]() Some were ‘garage’, but with a little more attention to detail others shifted to ‘bedroom’ in the sense of that particular room’s increased role as the home of creating and listening to music compared to more communal household spaces. Artists like Wilco, Neutral Milk Hotel, The Microphones and The Strokes were all leading the ‘indie’ scene, and had all mastered the homemade sound. This album endures as maybe the first example of ‘indie-net’. This is Vespertine at its most sublime, with no detail lost even as you drift to sleep. Why travel to a loud, corporate music store, when you could just download and silently listen to Vespertine without leaving your bedroom? I often listen to it resting in bed, with headphones on and the volume turned down as low as possible. The result is quiet, experimental, and comfortable with a kind of alien but intimate feel of file sharing built into the sound. ![]() She composed and mastered the sound of her album Vespertine, with the headphone listening Napster user in mind, meticulously designing softer, already compressed sounds that she thought would be minimally impacted by the file sharing process. Aside from the technical details, this consideration also came to affect the music on an artistic level Björk being one of the first artists to embrace it. ![]() Digital music was already well established in the form of CDs, and their formatting crossed over to file sharing relatively well but with increased frequency of conversion, compression, uploading and downloading, it didn’t take long for artists to have to take this into account in producing and mastering music. digital debate was relatively young, and commonly thought that digital ‘handling’ of the music files shared on the platform compromised audio quality. Launched in 1999, Napster was the first peer-to-peer online file sharing platform, it was huge, and deeply changed the way we share music.Īs well as putting pressure on major music labels to protect their sales, the culture surrounding the use of Napster was influential in and of itself. It wasn’t until widespread piracy that the internet was established as the global music distribution platform we know today. There was no MTV, it wasn’t sort of wall to wall blanket music.Īs early as 1993 you could buy and download music files online, but like most of the pre-Google internet, this was just a new gimmicky proof of concept for a computer network. It was very hard to hear music when I was younger, you know? When I was really young, you had to tune into AFM radio to hear the American records. I wanted to be a musician because it seemed rebellious, it seemed subversive, it felt like one could affect change to a form. You could theoretically run an entire career through only the internet so no wonder we are now at the stage of fictional TikTok influencer personalities that are in fact scripted, employed characters.

Stay away from poison ivyĪ now-deleted Reddit account posted (Opens in a new tab) this nightmare of a masturbation story: Tl Dr: was masturbating in dark room when my sociopathic grandma walks in with a knife, makes a circle in my room then walks out. I just stay still and she leaves the same way she came but holy shit it was weird. I realize what is happening and I stop, only to look closer at the figure and she is HOLDING A FUCKING KNIFE. Well, I keep doing the deed and someone shuffles in and slowly is walking around my room. I thought I saw a figure but I thought it was my imagination. Well, my door creaks open, but for some reason I didn't think anything of it. I had no lights on or anything (this was before I discovered porn) and I was doing the deed. My room is upstairs and the first one at the top of the stairs. One time was staying at my house in the downstairs bedroom. Redditor Fapfapthrowaway5573 shared (Opens in a new tab) a horrifying tale featuring a grandma and a knife: TL DR: I masturbated with a condom-covered hot dog and nearly died. I wake up in the hospital to: my father (can't look at me), my mother (can't stop laughing), Hillary (in the corner, beet red), and a doctor explaining that I have a latex allergy and had broke my hyman, causing anaphylactic shock. My mom started ranting about drugs and Hillary panicked and told them what was going on. They called an ambulance and the EMT was grilling Hillary about what we were doing. Hillary says I passed out and she got my mother. Hillary hands me hers and I go to throw them in the wastebasket. I finally convince her to leave and remove the sausage. At that moment my mother BURSTS in (drunk) and starts screaming at us! She insists we're doing drugs and questions the blanket over us. IT HURTS! And it's like burning and I feel weird. I remember thinking, "Am I sure I want to do this?", but I hear her, like, moaning so I.plunge ahead. We sit on my futon, slide our pants/undies down, throw a blanket over our laps. She comes over, I go to the fridge and find we only have SPICY KIELBASA! I show her and we decide to still try but cover them in condoms. We (mind you, we are VERY experimental 16 year old girls) decide to try it with hot-dogs that night at my house. We decide it needs to be stimulated with something more penis-like. We read the article and she tells me she had tried with her fingers to no avail. I told her my technique (rub it 'til it feels good, don't stop) and she showed me that month's Cosmo. ![]() I was the expert on sex, as I had a bf and had gone down on him 1.5 times.

Scott: It was amazing when the film came out. What changed for you personally after the success of the film? Q: What were your feelings about it when the film was released in 1982? You were only 14 years old at that time. Gleason about episodes of The Honeymooners, singing the Superman theme with Richard Donner (he begged me not to jump off the roof of the house into the pool and told me, "You may sound good, but you can't fly"). &Too many stories really: going to see Poltergiest at the movies with Richard Pryor, sharing laughs with Mr. To this day that still applies as I have run into people from the film, cast and crew and we still have good words and share time talking about the filming. The cast, the crew, everyone really treated me well and most of the time went above and beyond to show they cared. Scott: The Toy was four months of shooting that, of course, I'll never forget. Q: How do you recall your overall experience making The Toy back then? Any other interesting stories or memories about making The Toy that you can share with us? His "eye" for scenes and set-ups was amazing he could just see things before they happened. I tried to watch him as much as I could to see how a director works, but I ended up laughing as much as I did learning things. He'd be laughing and joking quite a bit during filming. His charm and sense of humor was really unexpected as normally a director is very serious during filming and he wasn't that way at all. What do you remember about your experience working with him? What did you learn from that experience? Q: The film was directed by the great Richard Donner. Off screen he was pretty quiet, basically saving the energy he had for his onscreen time, but we had a LOT of conversations during down-time. Gleason taught me how to shoot pool, told me all kinds of stories about his life. He and I got along really better than most people expected as I showed him very early on I wasn't out to steal scenes, I knew WHO he was and appreciated his work. At the core, though, are lessons for the characters in friendship, love and respect. The boy, who can pick out anything he wants at the toy store, is really desperate for somebody to play with and demands that he wants the actual cleaning guy (Pryor) instead of a toy (cue the slavery comparisons). It is about a spoiled boy (Schwartz) who does not get the love and attention he desires from his wealthy father (Gleason). I loved this film when I saw it as a kid, but looking at it now there are some racist undertones that can be interpreted many of which are due to the storyline. ![]() ![]() It was the 14th highest grossing film of that year. The Toy is a 1982 comedy directed by Richard Donner and starring the legendary Richard Pryor and Jackie Gleason alongside Scott Schwartz. It took 8 auditions, several screen-tests. Scott: I auditioned for it, like everyone else, over 5,000 real actors tried out and another 5,000+ went to their local Toys-R-Us store where they had a contest for a "Jackie Gleason" look-a-like. Q: How did the role of "Master Eric Bates" in 1982's The Toy come your way? From commercials to Off-Broadway to Broadway, 150+ commercials later.

Originally built in seven days by Redefinition Games, The Very Organized Thief has been released for public consumption following the application of a spot of polish. Why not see if you can be a better thief than me? The owner of the house had arrived home while I was performing my pilfering, you see, and I was trapped upstairs, cut off from the exit. As it happens, it was in the kitchen and I had already collected it but I was in a blind panic and had forgotten where toasters normally live. I just spent several frantic minutes running from room to room, leaving scattered pillows and cushions behind me, as I tried to find a toaster. The house is the same on every playthrough but the list of objects on the thief's checklist aren't always found in the same place.
