The Queue: Tempered expectations

Hey, remember a few weeks back when I asked you to list some songs that sounded happy but had not-happy lyrics? I finally got around to making your suggestions into a playlist. Check it out sometime. And let me know if I happened to miss anything — “Don’t Burn the Day” and this fight music were the only two that I couldn’t find.

Oh yeah, some songs have NSFW lyrics. Listen with headphones or at your own discretion or something.

Give that a listen (or don’t, I can’t tell you what to do) while you read this edition of… THE QUEUE!!!!


The Queue: Modern beats Retro… but at what cost?

This month’s Splatfest was a bit of a different one. Not only did it use a revamped system to determine the winner (Clout instead of matches won), it also resulted in the first win for Marina in a long time. Unfortunately, it also happened to be the Splatfest where I’ve been the most genuinely angry at the game.

When 11:00 p.m. rolled around, I had an hour left to get in just a couple wins. I figured I’d be done in 20-30 minutes tops. So, naturally, I wound up going on a 7-game losing streak where the matchmaking consistently placed me against teams that were rated higher. I don’t know why, but it frustrated me to no end. I finally hit Queen (the max Splatfest rank) at 11:57 p.m.. I was not a happy camper.

Anyhow, that’s literally all for any Nintendo-related anything that we’ll be discussing today. Let’s Queue.
