Rated the #1 pizza in Onoway!
An Iconic Burger Chain founded in Edmonton, Alberta…is one claim among many!
When you’re done shitposting, cram a glorious burger down your gob in the most run down shit hole you can find.
If it’s last renovated in the 70’s and you wonder if it’s a front for the mob, you’re in a proper Burger Baron!

  • Only once when I was young and it only lasted 4 hours.

    I was at a LAN party and slept in as you do on the floor of my friend’s basement. I had forgotten entirely about an opening shift I had taken that Sunday morning at the pizza joint I worked at.

    I woke up to multiple missed calls and a voicemail saying if I didn’t show up in a couple hours, don’t bother showing up again.

    I showed up anyways and apologised. Got my job back and boss clearly felt bad for firing me for a single fuckup in the heat of the moment. So he also gave me a raise instead of firing me for “having the balls to show up again” as he put it.

    ¯\(ツ)/¯ A whole 25 cents!! Nice.



  • over two decades of development

    Jeez that long? I remember testing out games and being excited to see Medal of Honor Rising Sun get in-game at 1-5 FPS. Can’t remember if that was on an Athlon XP 2500+ or Core 2 Duo Q6600. It was entirely out of curiosity since I had a Swap Magic modified PS2.

    no per-game configurations, no automatic configurations

    Those were dark days. Nobody used PCSX2 wiki because nobody (besides us nerds) thought to look for one or knew about it, so emulator reputation was worse than it could’ve been.

    Still, it was very annoying having to reference the wiki every time I changed what game I was playing.









  • I still have stuff as far back as DOS and Win9x titles on my shelves. Sure I have to use virtual machines and emulators these days since I’m not willing to buy or hold onto old hardware but I’m still able to do this on modern PC which is the main point: freedom.

    I only care about exclusives anymore which is an artificial value yep.

    There are some exceptions like PS2 was my DVD movje player and PS3 was Bluray movie player and what I used Universal Media Server with back then streaming from my PC. Not just the games, but there were games too. Plus weird stuff on PSN like Trash Panic or Tokyo Jungle.

    Also I refuse to pay for online play and I stuck to it.
