OK. I have to admit, Breath of the Wild is doing some really interesting stuff with graphics.
At first when Impus Minor was playing it, the graphics were... er... um... "primitive".
As he's gone up in levels and abilities, or maybe as he's gone into other regions, the graphics have gotten crisper and crisper. He's definitely now rivaling PS2 games most of the time, and there was at least one vista that was even PS3-worthy.
So still nothing to write home about, but the crude graphics at the start of the game were clearly a design decision. And whether or not I like it, I always respect people for trying something different.

I might have torn my clothes in anger...
It was quite warm today, but I have cough now (probably because of agitated angry screaming at my father on phone).

The HR manager is in charge tonight. Apparently her first time, because all the other managers told me so, even asking me if I'm okay with that.

You Tube system of showing me videos I watched instead of videos related to the one I am watching now is beyond stupid... I don't need to see what I saw, I want to have a chance of discovering things I haven't heard yet :/

I think you there's a bar you can click to minimize the just watched stuff so you can see the recommendations.

No, I meant that the default recommendation system is crap.
Pausing search history helps a bit.

Found out after work that my entire family is coming for the opening performance of Pea Bear's play tomorrow.

I hope that those two things remain unrelated facts.

The joke turned out to be much more mundane. Due to an irregularity in one eye, they won't perform the surgery on me. I'm disappointed, but all in all it's a first-world problem, and I'd rather they told me than go through with a potentially blinding procedure.

I just heard a joke on a YouTube video with a rather specific target audience. It goes like this:
What did the pirate say to the prostitute?
Yaar, Bend O'er Again.

That somehow felt vaguely masturbatory. Which, if pronounced "mas-TER-ba-tor-y" sounds like a room designed for self-pleasure. As in, "I shall now retire to the masturbatory for a while before I go to work".

Every day is better when a week previous you were pretty sure you wouldn't see another.

I've decided to market a dishwasher. Instead of the standard buttons, it will just have three:
"Shit, I don't know."
"IDGAF, just make them clean."
"Whatever. I'm too tired to care."

That's a lot more clear than anything else on the market now, and looks about as effective: I'm in! They will sell like gangbusters! Especially once they become a short-lived meme on the Internet, shortly after the meme is over slightly-over-middle-age stay-at-home parental figures will hop on and we'll see a second resurgence! It's basically like getting paid twice!

That awkward awesome moment where you're startled into making a weird "woop!" noise in front of your neighbor by a harmless beagle who sneaks up behind you and polls over for cuddles... XD

You forgot the "Oh! You... you didn't expect me to wash dishes! No, no, no, I'm not that kind of dishwasher!" setting.

That's very funny. It made me laugh. After this past weekend, I needed that. Thank you. :)

Hee.
Something that I've repeatedly been told: the first area of the game (the great plateau) looks the worst/least interesting, and has the most issues.
Of course, I'm still in awe of PS3 or even PS2 graphics (sometimes; heck, some old PS/SNES graphics look better than some modern takes, though it's usually about art style rather than actual graphical ability), so...
:D

The only possible upgrade to lisamarlene's dishwasher I could recommend would be:
Rantraptor's Atomic Dish Disintegrator
Low setting: Burn them all!
Medium setting: Feast of Ashes
High setting: Collateral Damage Guaranteed

I think washing machines need a single button (preferably large and red) which just says MAIK CLOTHE NISE CLEAN CLEAN NOE MOAR DIRTEY. I only use one of the 8-10 settings anyway, and nothing has ever exploded or turned the wrong colour.
Except me, but that's a completely different story.
Woo! Good luck, er, I mean, "Break a leg!" (but not really)!
