I’ve had to kill three vipers in my backyard this year, and while I feel I’ve gained enough XP on these low-level RPG enemies to level up, not one of them has dropped any GP. As a result, I still have to fight with random garden tools...

But did any of them kick you?

Raspberry Pi Zero specs is 1Ghz CPU and 512MB RAM is sold for $5 and is treated like an electronic module. IIRC we used to do photoshop, Office, run great games like Red Alert, and build websites on much less powerful machines. My PC that had the cost of like $2000 in early 2000 shipped with 256MB RAM and it could do video editing and DVD burning. Am I missing something?

My brain can not processes so much advancement in technology, it hurts.

I ran to a bus stop. A woman was walking there too. She then turns around towards me and takes off her pants. I then looked away cause I had no clue what to do. I've never been so confused. She didn't get on the bus either

I got on the bus. It's just this is one of the strangest encounters I've had. I'm still dumbfounded.

Yeah, that sounds pretty bizarre. I hope that person gets the help she probably needs, cause that seems a little cry-for-help-y.

Mortal Kombat Kollection has the arcade versions; so, you should be good there. Puzzle Bobble was outclassed by its sequels. If you must play the original game, I recommend the SNES port.

HOLD THE PHONE! An arcade perfect version of the original game is available for the Switch. It’s ACA Neo Geo Puzzle Bobble. I should have known it’d be there.
