No no Rez, the format of the joke implies MMM is the brand name product that consumers know and love. MMHP is the knockoff product. Falls apart instantly and contains cadmium.

We've got The Megaman Matrix at home.

Mega Man Matrix at Home = MMHP

Video is always implied to preceed every instance of the word game unless specified by a lesser qualifier such as "board".

I agree with Rez. Shame on you.

Balatro.

I see cards in my minds eye, I see cards in my sleep

I think the old site did have some fan art on it. Xitena, do you remember if it was on the forum or the actual Mega Man Matrix website?

That's right! You can't ban us all! *stands on desk* O CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN

Snare, question about the cheetos: Did the AI tell you to buy the sunflower oil directly or do you blend the seeds yourself or, just, like, how do you even feel about that?

I tried a bing search of "bathtub cheetos" but it... it didn't help.

Let's just ask my favorite text completion thingy...

(bold is my prompt, the rest is the output)

Here's a step by step guide how to make a giant bag of Cheetos in your bathtub:

1. Clean your bathtub and drain it.

2. Pour a little water in the tub.  You don't want the tub to be too wet because it's easier to scoop it out with a measuring cup.

3. Dump some salt in the bathtub.

4. Sprinkle some baking soda over the salt.

5. Finally, add in some dishwashing soap.  The dish washing soap will turn the salt and baking soda into an awesome bubbling mess.

6. Next, spray some food coloring into the tub until the salt mixture looks like orange Cheetos.

7. Pour some vegetable oil into the tub until it looks like a bowl of Cheetos.

8. Take a look at your giant Cheetos!

I'm an agoraphobic shut in with autistic qualities but I'm also still very cute and handsome. Seriously, I make it sound like a joke but humor is obviously how I deal with everything.

I'm currently just working part time at a flower/plant shop. There's a lot I do like about it but at the same time, I'm definitely not being paid what I'm worth or rewarded much for my knowledge and skills. Working with clients who are mostly plant beginners is draining lol. I also sell handmade crafts on the side, I'm slowly expanding that as a business.

I have a sore stomach atm

Yeah I used Dall-e to expand the scenery of a few water color backgrounds.

Besides that, I only like AI for comedic purposes. Like making Peter Griffin sing songs, generating impossible Marge Simpsons, and printing instructions on making homemade cheetos in the bathtub

I dunno why but I find it entertaining that I'm the only one so far that remained in pixel form in Hell.

Yeah! I made you the manic pixie dream robot of the bunch.

speaking of skinning, how's (one of?) Nibbles's demonic form?

Let's get in touch with some more MMM denizens and how they're dealing with the situation!!



But yeah, for those interested, this is how I use that kind of uh... assistance. The top image is what I painted and the bottom is sort of an extended version of it. It's to get more mileage out of scenery. Why am I even being contrite it's not like I get paid. I'm so sorry. I can stop. I'll change.

We love you. Please hold us like you used to.

You can always try your hand as a YouTube creator.  I don't think there are many Plant based channel hosts so you'd have a niche already carved out.

You jest but there is a fella who goes all around the world and talks endlessly about the plants he comes across. He's incredibly vulgar and is very quick to point out which plant structures resemble a human prepuce. Then there are countless "Plant Dad" videos. Maybe I'd focus on plant creatures across video games, it would be an endless catalog. Brings me back to when I'd scour rpgclassics to try and find every single botanical monster out there.

Okay that might be a thing that will happen.

Holy #####, these are beautiful!

Thanks, some of it is older stuff from years ago that I had lying in a drawer. I just photographed them and played around with em. Unfortunately, I used dall-e to expand the range of some of the originals. For example, the bottom quarter of the field where Snare is standing was partly generated by dall-e. I am a fraud.

Just noticed the capitalized bobcat and also realizing I haven't heard anything from the comedian of the same name in ages. Is he worm food? Tell us John.

He's directing and writing mostly. He is 61 years old, and his only product of note for 2023 was being a guest voice on 'The Patrick Star Show", which I didn't know existed and upsets me. Why do spinoffs have to be 'The (insert character's name) Show'? They could have called it Star Power, or Star Power Hour.

Also hey I'm between jobs right now. Working sucks.

The creator of SpongeBob was very adamant about no spin-offs so the millisecond he croaks they went and made SpongeBob spinoffs.

61 year old Bobcat is a solemn thought.

Also yeah, I don't know if I can work a traditional job that requires an inflexible schedule. I have medical conditions and stuff. Disability covers rent at least!

Helps that I'm laid off from work. Which works out great because I hate working.

I apply myself when it comes to my paper and floral crafts. See, what I should be doing is working on getting myself set up for selling my pieces properly on a proper website with shipping and stuff all figured out. But I'm doing this instead.

Not my Bobcat skins!

imagine if this is the last episode

Thanks! It's like a weird pastel underworld. I'm always thinking of weird landscapes and alternate worlds but I'm also trying to maintain my mantra of being as lazy as possible when making this. Why yes, I am afraid of effort and applying myself earnestly!!

And why should it ever end? That's like asking Garfield to end.

Oh, hello Abe. I'm doing okay. Remember when I was ten years old? That was wacky. I'm thirty-three now. We're all currently embarking on a journey to hell in order to find you.

Oh good, you hadn't posted in a while and I was getting legitimately concerned.

Merry Happymas everyone and don't forget, X landed on spikes and turned into bubbles for YOU.

i have a bile-soaked broken down poang chair

We all have the same evil in the pit of our hearts. We all love sitting. I assume. Now I'm scared it's just me.

*yawn*

I'm still using my busted laptop its just plugged into a TV. Give me money

until I forget I exist again

Yeah, I know, you were also a top graduate or something too right? Like I was saying. Total nerd. Dorking up the room in here, poindextron

just tying loose ends for a part of that quest for whatever it is the guys and now gal are doing

yeah well.

good to know actually. hate to see that you've become a nerd though

I mean, do we even NEED spoiler tags these days?

yeah so no one is forced to see pictures of YOUR BUTT. Hahaha.

Where do you think those pictures come from John? Thin air? The internet? Some sort of "EH AYE" nonsensory? No. These are real people and they will not stop having a pillow fight.

Yeah it's because each time you click, one of them spawns in my apartment and I don't have enough hors d'oeuvres for everyone. Stressful situation all around.

this is a very interesting error message

Yeah well, my avatar is still perfect so this is a you problem Nova. Sorry. Ticket closed.

Thanks! Does that mean I can have some money?

We're back, baby!  Glad to see you have risen from your grave, Snare!  Or at least your laptop did.

my laptop is certainly NOT back from the dead. That was more of a pity post because I didn't know like most of a year just went by. I hate the passing of time.
