if they make a kotor movie im gonna kill mickey mouse myself
My Fallout OC Lodi
so i've got family in nyc and i visit every so often and i like to just wander around the city. so i go to FAO Schwarz the big toy store just to look around right when the new star wars movie was coming out (i don't remember which one but one of the new sequel ones that wasn't rogue one) and just as you would expect, there are a million star wars toys but my eye catches on one particular set of shelves where they have these little dolls
and there are a few general huxes and a few reys and a few finns but then there's a shelf and a half of LOBOT (seen above).
Now, if you didn't grow up with an unhealthy obsession of original trilogy star wars lore between the ages of 12-14 you might not understand who this figure is. he is this guy
and gets flashed once on screen with this shot as a kind of jumpscare which I think was kind of mean to the actor that they just used his face with a head massager as a jumpscare. anyway, i'm getting carried away, but the point is he only shows up in the background of a few moments in the movie after that. in the credits he is even listed as "lando's aide" and he acquired the name lobot because he ended up having no lines in the movie and people suggested that he was lobotomized and his brain was replaced with those metal things seen above. anyway, the fandom went wild with it and came up with all kinds of stories but none of this explains why, in one of the most famous toy stores in the usa, in the middle of a star wars craze, i found nearly 200 lobot dolls on racks and only a handful of other star wars characters. i tried explaining how weird this is to my partners and family members and friends and everyone just looks at me with this blank robotic stare.
now, i just occasionally spend a moment or two every day thinking about whoever it was that decided to overproduce an insane quantity of lobot toys and what they're up to these days
hey bro can i ask you a question that will reveal a deep and fundamental gap in my knowledge of the world
confession: i know everyone hates it, i still want to play starfield whenever it next goes on sale.
boring sci-fi nasa aesthetic.... i love it
The amount of hate for the Fallout show is wild?? Especially for most people who are spewing it having not watched it.. at all, and are just going off of what others say on social media.
Like the amount of vitriol and toxicity being thrown to anyone who even LIKES a Bethesda Fallout game or the show on Tumblr is crazy?
Please just let people like what they like. It's not that deep.
it's always sunny in new vegas

[image ID: 4 images, fallout new vegas redraws of episode stills from the tv series "it's always sunny in philadelphia". all dialogue is in the form of captions typical of tv shows, with a white font on a black subtitle box.
eli, lelelego's courier, and rose of sharon cassidy (cass) are standing in a dirty public bathroom. cass is lighting a very short cigarette. eli is standing a few paces away, looking weirded out. cass says "so, uh, you're gay, huh?
cass, standing in front of a cubicle. she's still lighting the cigarette. she asks, "for pay or for free?"
eli, looking to the side like he's confused by the question, says "uh, for free, I guess."
cass, now putting the cigarette to her mouth, smiles and says, "chump." /end ID]
also, the pics were from alwaysshoutyinphiladelphia :>
Sometimes I say something stupid to people and I just want to go, "DISREGARD PREVIOUS COMMUNICATION" so we can just move on instead of me quickly trying to come up with an innocuous explanation for what I just said that doesn't make me sound insane or like I just made a massive social blunder
No I will not be giving you the chip, Mr. House.
