Firefly was canceled and there will never be anything with the exact same amazing feel to it.

Jason Statham will probably never be in the MCU.

The FFVII remake has a high probability of sucking.


I'll address the last part.

The game won't be the same, obviously, and even if it were, the greatest thing about ff7 was that it was totally new stuff, and very original at the time. I can't think of any other game at the time that made you be a cross-dresser as a major plot point, or made you work for hours just to get out and into the world, or had a kind of political/environmentalist message, or even played out like an unfolding mystery.

Major characters betrayed you. You had to do some serious James Bond shit now and then. The plot just felt balls out wild 90's "extreme!" the whole time.

With the remake, they're just retreading old ground with new graphics, maybe shuffling a few events around, and probably popping in a few odd cameo characters from the retcon games, but the game won't have anything like the sense of awe and wonder that the original had, no matter how shiny they make it look.

What would make it great, in my opinion:

- some new minigames
- bigger Gold Saucer and more stuff to do there
- new sidequests
- a New Game + option
- an online multiplayer arena type deal
- better Chocobo racing, more kinds of chocobos to breed
- airship customization options
- more Weapons, new ways to fight them
- a couple new secret characters, just because it's a remake
- a way to bring back whatsherface

What we'll probably get:

- Gambit system
- materia system overhaul

How about a way to skip the summon cutscenes? That was my favorite new feature of FFVIII.

Don't even get me started on ff8.

If you knew what you were doing in ff8, though, you never had to summon anything at all. You were better off never summoning anything ever, because your normal attacks could potentially do more damage, and you had to run away from almost all the random encounters to keep your levels low so bosses wouldn't get too tough.

I hate that game to this day.

The "Cash Me Ousside" girl is getting her own reality TV show, meaning she will potentially earn more money than you ever will in your empty, miserable lives.

Now there's a claim from the internet that I am reluctant to take at face value.

When you die, everyone else who was there will keep living, and their lives will go on without you. Everyone you know will go home, and their lives will continue as normal, without you. Your most-loved ones will be sad, because you will have hurt them by dying like that, and the absolute best-case scenario you can hope for is that they forget you as quickly as possible.

Also, Miley Cyrus will probably outlive you. Rich people live longer on average, and women tend to outlive men, and I for one am five years older than she is, so I stand almost no chance of not being outlived by Miley Cyrus.

On the other hand, Miley Cyrus should be turning 27 in 2019...

Idk I feel like a person who is over 10 years younger than me like Ms. Cyrus doesn't keep her odds too high versus my own when she's living a lifestyle that is high in travel and strenuous performance. I'm not going to bother stupid google with my query of do pop singers live longer lives than the average person because I don't think anyone is keeping stats on that. But each time she steps on a plane her odds of dying are increased far above what I do on a daily basis.

Plus yeah the 27 thing.

20 years. That is the decrease in a musician's life simply for being an artist or musician.

With a devilish twinkle in his eye.
With his hand-picked flowers,
And his feel-good powers,
He made all the girls blush and sigh.

Why does it matter if Miley Cyrus is alive by the time I die? Unless I'm named in her will, I couldn't give a fuck which of us croaks first.

Well, I know that I'm in her will. But don't tell anyone, it's a secret.
