These are all from #asianskincare and #skincarecollection

I know that some girls really do have unfortunate skin, but half the time I feel like these tiktok and asian girls have to use all this crap is because they cake themselves in makeup and don't let themselves naturally breathe. Maybe it's because I've always found vanity to be stupid, but no amount of coverup and foundation will change that you're going to get old. Yes, you can stave off those wrinkles for a while and it's good to use sunscreen and moisturizers, but smearing placenta and coconut baboa oil on your face because "Korean Skincare Routine!!" is the stupidest shit on the planet.

This is totally CCP propaganda, right?

All that shit on the bathrooms walls is unnecessary. The covers on your toothbrush are fine, but you could also just stick it in a drawer. The facemask warmer made me laugh, though. That is so needless.

Other than the basics, regular cosmetic skincare is a scam at making the skin nice. It's skincare that's regulated as medicine such a tretinoin that does the drastic stuff.

As much as I despise Logan Paul, the retro fags replying to one of his videos pouring risen on 15 GameBoy Colors (oh the horrrrooor!) into a frame reminded me as to why I like this thread. Shit’s hilarious.


I’m not sure how to insert Twitter vids on here sorry.

Broken GBC are like $50, these people getting angry over this but not the scalpers who basically purchase out the entire retro gaming market and over inflate the value.

Meh, I don't believe it's all complete bullshit but certainly a lot of it is. Different formulations of benzoyl peroxide seem to affect my skin in wildly different ways.
 

I know we talked about this ad nauseum, but India has some very unique video game collectors. He managed to collect the same video game multiple times while having the same multiple amount of Game & Watch handheld consoles that have never been released to North America,

I don’t know if it was @Pissmaster or @NoReturn that said it, but I think videos like these are the reason why scalpers are getting away with setting up prices in high range all because these collectors don’t seem to understand the idea that “less is more”. Most of the games are stocked and shelved neatly in places where the plastic is still on there and rubber bands connect the games so they won’t be mismanaged when trying to search from them.

It’s interesting, but it’s also ridiculous.

Also what kind of person collects multiple amounts of Metroid Prime and Final Fantasy X-2 In their collection? :stress:
 
Defunctland made a extremely well put-together video detailing how the revamp of the Fastpass system at Disney parks has created alot of problems- but it did strike me as odd that not only does there exist a number of people who make multiple trips to a Disney park a year, but apparently had become such reliable "whales" that Disney could cater several different services to them.

I only ever went to Disneyworld once in my life when I was four years old and I barely remember any of it because I was so young- and even then it was a big undertaking for my parents because we had to travel halfway down the East Coast of the US. As of writing it's been about 10 years since the last vacation I took. If I could afford to travel multiple times in a single year without it interfering with my job I would be using that time to go different places for either business, pilgrimages, or the rare vacation. It's especially jarring to see Millennials or Gen Xers go to Disney multiple times in a year- especially if they don't have children of their own. "Disney Trips" are supposed to be for the kids- more or less (unless you're an executive, engineer, or actor of some kind hoping to get sloshed at Club 38

Consoomers are currently losing their minds on twitter as Logan Paul RUTHLESSLY DESTROYS 15 gameboys, CREULLY TEARING THEM FROM THE HANDS OF CHILDREN WHO COULD HAVE PLAYED WITH THEM :mad:




Don't you know that Gameboys are actually really rare and hard to get? Logan Paul is single handedly RUNING the economy by driving up prices. Destroying hardware is not only wasteful, it's morally wrong!

Logan Paul is TEARING HAPPINESS FROM THE HANDS OF CHILDREN. He is BURYING their dreams in a tomb of EPOXY RESIN.

Owning private property is okay when you do it in a way I approve of :mad:

Destroying gameboys is basically murder and anyone who does this kind of thing is both stupid and morally bankrupt. I am very smart.

Who even gives a shit about destroying a gameboy? It's literally one of the most popular concoles ever, if you go on ebay right now you can get one in good condition for anywhere from £30-£70. The people acting like this is a crime tantamount to taking a dump on the Mona Lisa are all absolute mongoloids.

I'm happy that Logan Paul made something out of them. He looks genuinely pleased at the end and you can tell he had fun making it and took a great deal or care over it. He's a millionaire, he could have just bought a table or got someone to make him one, but he did it himself with his friends and to me that's way more valuable than a bunch of ancient consoles which would probably have just sat on a shelf in some consoomer's hoard acquiring dust. Logan's really grown up and chilled out over the past couple of years, and he seems a lot happier for it. I suspect the suicide forest thing shocked some kind of sense into him.
 
That game boy table actually looks rather cool and would certainly be a conversation piece for years to come. Not ot mention, you can still play Game Boy games on a Game Boy advanced and Game Boy and game boy replacement parts are easy to come by.

This is a question for this thread in general which I have a tough one to answer. If someone buys lots of lego sets and actually plays with him and puts them in rather fun diorama sets they change every now and again, are they a consoomer or just a massive autist?

A massive autist, but that's way better then being a consoomer. You are actualy using the "collection"

Holy shit. Who needs more than 3 copies of any game. One for collecting. One for playing. One for selling. I speak as a faggot who owns over 1000+ games myself, but the difference between me and a lot of people? I've played every single one of them and I only keep the ones I like. In fact, the only games I have doubles of are Digital Devil Saga and Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and that's due to wearing the fucking games out.

I treat my video games like how people used to treat their book collections. Fond memories. Recollections and if you feel like it, just open it up and play it again.
On that note : fuck Sony. The Magic gate fell apart on one of my Ps2s and I can't harass my friends and family anymore with Karoke

Honestly, Disneyland is the pinnacle of the problems with money in our country.
Like you said, people take MULTIPLE trips a year, at yet at the same time - are unable to afford a home. People pay upwards to a million a dollars a trip to flex on other people paying slightly less.
Imagine spending anywhere between 400 hundred and one thousand dollars a day to stand in line.


Money has no real value to these people. My wife and I recently had this discussion about our possible trip to disneyland. It's just out of the question, the amount of money you have to hemmorage, the amount of planning you have to do just for the chance to ride a theme park ride? Christ, I'd rather buy lottery tickets.

I don’t blame that poor kid. Funko Pop faces look like alíen bugs, and she’s suddenly in a room with hundreds of them just staring at her. At that age, I’d be terrified too

Never mind "at that age", I'm fucking terrified right now just seeing it on my screen lol.

Agree with both of you, that table came out very cool, and I love that he made it himself. One of my friends is into "retro-gaming" and has some memorabilia, he would love something like that. Like you said, definitely a conversation piece!

Manchildren, that's about it. No kid wants a GBC in 2021, the only people who do are a nostalgic 90s kids and even that's a small market.

Every single gameboy game can be experienced better via an emulator on a smartphone, the old hardware is irrelevant.
