Yeah. Not everyone who grew up in that generation turned out to be a broke brains moron deadset on making sure everyone suffers after they die. poo poo, I was going to say that Bernie Sanders is from the boomer generation but it looks like he's about 5 years too old to be a boomer.

I also thought Bill Watterson did artwork for The Rembrandts but I must be batting .000 today. Here's some of his pre-Calvin art for his brother's band, The Rels. https://www.reddit.com/r/newspapercomics/comments/qdngl/could_this_possibly_be_new_bill_watterson_artwork/

He also, within the last... Maybe four or five years did some strips for Steven Pastis' Pearls Before Swine.

It is a combination of the "Every day my dog does this face" meme and a reference to the game Disco Elysium where the main character is shocked and disgusted to learn that that is what he looks like and that that expression seems stuck on his face.

He does, he just keeps the silver one on his horse because he doesn't need it all the time.

EDIT: Also upkeep on a silver sword is very expensive so he wants to use it as least as possible.

quote:

Regardless of what today’s new images might imply, the Geralt of Netflix’s The Witcher probably isn’t going to be a one-sword guy. The Witcher showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich hinted strongly that Geralt will pull that second sword out at the right time on the Netflix series. Here’s what Hissrich said on Twitter earlier today:

One of my hopes for that show is that it's just a constant running tease of him pulling out things that look to be a second sword but aren't, then he finally pulls it out in the finale but doesn't use it.

This is book accurate. He doesnt walk around with the 2. He pulls silver out if needed for a particular monster (which is not all monsters).

Theres a lot more planning on hunts of anything in the books. Which I totally understand doesnt translate perfectly to a game where you need some mooks to hack on occasionally.

Additionally:

* The main character is a complete trainwreck who nontheless maintains a cocky, indefatigable sense of self-assurance even in the face of his utter worthlessness, much like the dog in the original meme.
* The game features a scene where the main character is called a human being (repeatedly) by a vile mouthy kid; the game censors it to "f*****t" in the same way as the original meme was later censored to "f*****t" by its creator.
* The text is written from the point of view of the main character's unwilling partner, who is forced into cooperating with this awful trainwreck of a human being who physically can't stop grinning;
* The partner is throughout the game portrayed as professional, stoic, enlightened, and unrelentingly patient with the main character's RPG Protagonist-esque antics (while still acknowledging how ridiculous they are), making the mental image of him finishing his day job and coming home to vent by screaming incoherent homophobic slurs on the internet all the more incongruous.

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.

It's good, but it really should've been "pissf****t" instead (There's in-game context for this, for those that haven't played Disco Elysium. Also go play Disco Elysium, it's really loving good.)

I think a Skyrim show should be played completely straight, except for just one episode where (without openly stating as much) it is just "the one where Skyrim glitches out on everything". Villagers are walking into walls, props are juddering wildly on tables against eachother. Someone gets launched into orbit by a giant's club. Progression glitches out because a door won't open when a load-bearing boss dies...
