I don't know how to switch accounts and fucked up my wife's entire persona she was building by commenting under her account. Instead of deleting the comments when I realised my mistake, I instead just switched accounts and left those comments there for her to find when she woke up. I claim to have planned to go back to delete them, but instead I was just gonna completely forget about them.

I am so smart 🤓

Did they use the guy who actually played Kano in the game?

I did some digging, and yes, that is Richard Divizio, the original motion capture actor for Kano and Baraka!

I fucking loved the OG Mortal Kombat console. I could play Sub-Zero thru Shang Tsung on one quarter. Of course, it took so many quarters to get that good. I would buy one of those consoles for home in a heartbeat.

OG MK hits different - its early jank somehow enhances the game experience.

It only hurts children if you have the blood turned on.

Got any cash, lil'punk? Sure send your kiddos to that poorly lit loud stained floor arcade with a gazillion of quarters! True kombat awaits!
