I don’t know if that’s actually a thing or just his own personal rubric, but I won’t add his explanation just in case it spoils anything. I was happily buzzed from the soju I had smuggled in, so I just replied a bit patronisingly, “Awwww, well I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it!” 6.8K views · 187 likes · 0 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

We waiting for a friend who’d gone to the bathroom and he walked past and asked if we’d seen/liked the movie. We all said yes, and he told us he liked it up until the last 10 mins - blamed American directors & said it broke the “golden rule of all mainline RE games”. 8.6K views · 185 likes · 0 reposts · 4 replies Open on X →

A lot of people think I’m making this up which is a valid response, but I really must stress that it did happen. It was like seeing a snow leopard in the wild, I couldn’t believe I got a glimpse of this type of guy. He also spoke to us in the lobby after! 8.2K views · 331 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →
