LMAO I bought Factorio a few years ago, fully intending to play it, after multiple people said “it is right up your alley”
Your comment, and the replies are to it, have made me very happy I never got around to it. I probably would have loved/hated it. For like 5 years of my life.
OMG. I remember that fucking treadmill. That must’ve been the game. Brb, gonna do something I could never do as a kid (or be humiliated trying)
You’ve just unlocked a core memory for me. Idk if it was Digimon World 2 specifically, but one of the World games had your Digimon pooping as a core mechanic, and I thought that was about the funniest thing that had ever been conceived. And, obviously, I also never got remotely close to beating it.
I might have to download it and see if: A) my humor has evolved at all beyond “lol poop” (probably not) and B) I can maybe beat it now (probably not)
Since my comment was removed, I’ll just state objective facts: there was never any evidence to support the conspiracy posted by this 4Chan commentor. The hysteria around it eventually died out.
Obviously people do believe in that shit. That was not the impression I got from OP’s post or the replies I’ve gotten, but maybe I read them wrong. I’ll freely admit that I could be wrong.
I also think I addressed why we’ve stopped talking about it: people realized there were no facts behind it and moved on.
Pokémon Go was a global phenomenon. It made exactly as many correct claims as your internet troll.
Of course. There was never any evidence to suggest that anything that random 4Channer said was true, but it sparked controversy and made for a good headline, so people who can’t bother to think for themselves ate it up, until the more intelligent of them realized there wasn’t actually anything to back it up, and presumably moved on to the next click bait headline that grabbed their attention.
Which only leaves you.

That’s pretty funny to me. I read the start of a King novel when I was probably too young for it (pretty sure it was It?), and just got bored with it. Never tried reading another for years. A decade or two later I tried the Dark Tower series and ended up binge-reading the first 5 books.
I really love those books, although I absolutely see their flaws and understand why people wouldn’t like them.
Either way, I definitely don’t think you need to be a Stephen King fan to enjoy them. I mean, I’m certainly not and I certainly did. Still haven’t read any of his other works…
