Welp! Pizza Hut ia also mostly gone

 Encanto Restaurants has fucked up beyond any recognition. 50 out of 56 Pizza Huts in Puerto Rico have shut down. That is seriously fucked up about 700 people now without a job. Combined with the KFC and Taco Bell layoffs, that's over 2000 employees now unemployed... with skyrocketing utilites (power and water) costs... my condolences to those who lost their jobs.


How long until the IHOP folks get screwed over? Seeing that Encanto Restaurants manages the IHOP franchises here.

Damn: Puerto Rico just lost KFC and Taco Bell

 What the actual Fuck? I mean, their quality had been in decline for a bit... but apparently, the Franchise Operator in PR was not up to snuff with Yum! Brands standards. Pizza Hut remains in the island as, they split from Yum early 2026.

Yum! Claims it's a small hiatus until they find a replacement for Encanto Restaurants... but this could be another Gamestop situation. My condolences to the employees affected by this disaster.

Figures Toy Company's made a Trump variant

 It looks like the previous Trump but woth a blue tie. For $70, you get variant Trump, extra head, hands, Podium, Mic, and...

JD Vance with extra head and hands... He talks too.

There is also a single boxed JD Vance, which I bought to review at a much later date.

I just realized the single card Vance is in a blue suit while the 2 pack is in black... Fuckdammit!

Target, what the hell!?

 Target, who used to be super woke, has now this:


What in Mr. Popo and Jinx's name is this thing!?

But part of me, the one wearing tinfoil hats is all like:
This is a message to MAGA showing that they're not woke and to please return to their stores.

Betcha they'll put the costume back but with a white kid...

April 8, 27: FFVII:R:3 kinda physical

 Squareenix confuses me.

They have a preorder on their site.



Only the collector's edition mentions having the full game physically... so what's the deal? Is it a digital key or do we get a partial install requiring a digital download, which is kinda a dick move when the collector's edition is sold out. Shitty move by SE if so... I'll probably preorder the day one edition.

Elon Musk won't play GTA6

 Elon Musk says he won't play GTA6 Because he doesn't like to kill NPCs, much less the police.

This is just as stupid as the women Claiming GTA6 = adultery. Seriously, is there something in the water that is making people absolute morons... playing a crime simulator game and getting mad at the game having the player commit crimes...

I can't even...

Stupidest thing ever: playing GTA6 = Cheating on youe partner.

 I don't know if this is ragebait or if this is women being stupid... not all women.

But this has caught IGN's attention, which in turn caught mine. 

Seriously, what the actual fuck? Women are jealous of polygons, pixels. Zeroes and ones...

What's worse is that to look for that clip, Blogger ignored my query and looked for other stuff... when I went to YouTube it put me on a suicide help screen that wouldn't go away despite me clicking the Show anyway button.

So

Capcom will celebrate Resident Evil's 30th with life sized statues of characters.

 Among them are Albert Wesker and Ara ara Dommy Mommy Dimitrescu. That is all. At least they aren't doing life sized sex dolls or anything.




Yeah, there are Resident Evil sex dolls... No Claire, Sheva, Rebecca, or Grace dolls so far...

But look who made it to the Sex doll list... there's also one from Death Stranding... but forgot to take a screenshot.
Shit, Shenmue has gotten big enough to get a sex doll.

It finally happened


 Remember my Sephiroth review? Well...



Final Fantasy VII has finally made it to Hot Topic... The Nomura fashion has come full circle.


Also there is a Rumor that Hasbro is doing Final Fantasy VII Figures...

Temu European President, Temu Trump is banning people

 If they talk shit about Argentina. Yeah, he's deporting immigrants for talking smack about the 2026 FIFA World Cup losers. BTW, Falklands are British. Che, boludo, aprendé, Las Malvinas NO SON ARGENTINAS. Hasta los mismos habitantes votaron para permanecer como colonia Inglesa. And just like that, I got banned from Argentina.

Then they womder why Latin America hates them. Then there's the whole Housing Nazis, like Mengele.

All this because they are sore losers at soccer.
Am I banned from Argentina now?

Argentina lost the world cup and they're crying more than Deku and LeBum James

 Spain beat Argentina at the world cup and Argentina is hella mad that Latinos were supporting Spain over them.

Trigger warning: Not all Argentinian people are racist, but a sizeable population is.

You've spent years calling yourselves Europeans, not Latinos and you complain that you aren't getting any support?

Even IShowSpeed got shat on by Argentine racists.

Samuel L. Jackson called out the Racism in Argentina. Argentinian folks kindly replied that they weren't racist, that he should point out US racism before calling out Argentina. Some used the hard R and said SLJ was a Motherfucking monkey... to point out that they weren't racist.

It's not like Argentina didn't bring as many Nazis as they could... but not racist.

Now Duolingo has pissed off Argentina.

Amd apparently the Brazilian Duolingo team is having fun with Argentina too.



Who would've expect a Saiyan revolution after Frieza called them Monkeys for years.

But seriously they have a bunch of conspiracy theories that go crazier... careful with that rabbit hole.

Again: Not all Argentinian people are racist... sadly for them, the racists have gained the spotlight for decades.

Filipinos are looking into banning videogames

 Apparently there was a shooting incident in Philippines and government is moving towards better gun regulations... nothing strange there.


This is the knee jerk reaction of pretending to do something and do nothing. Then again, can't expect much of any governments... won't make a joke about this increasing the number of Pro-LeBum bot farms.

Rockstar is getting mocked with the GTA6 Bullshit.

 First we have Insomniac Games throwing shade at Rockstar by replying to a User that Wolverine will come with a physical disc.

Twitter users had a holiday bashing Rockstar under that reply.

Then there's Domino's...

Allegedly, there may be a physical copy woth discs after December... But I'll probably buy the game around 2028.

Hell, I haven't gotten Ghost of Yotei... not because of "wokeness" but more of I refuse to pay $70 for it

Donald Trump has sicced the Secret Service on GWAR

 I'll be honest... I don't give a shit anout GWAR. I know them from the Beavis and Butt-head game... I believe they showed in an AVGN episode...

But Trump is butthurt that GWAR killed an effigy of him. Because GWAR has never done that to any other presidents, only Trump.




Three Democrat Presidents and Dubya, but not a peep.bit Mr. "Fuck your feelings" is being an even bigger bitch than LeBron James.


Seriously, I never thought I'd see GWAR in the house of rants.

The ghost who walks will now be black

 Since Reginal Hudlin is at the helm. Having a black guy be the Phantom feels odd. Especially since he's the embodiment of the "white Savior" trope. 

Well yes, the original Phantom was saved by the African tribe as a child. But when he grew, he became the protector of the tribe, the protector of the jungle and basically their savior... because he literally saved the tribe from a different trine who had enslaved them. Blackwashing The Phantom defeats the whole purpose of the character... Especially when he had Access to Lothar, The Strongest man on Earth... Lothar was the closest thing to a Black Superman. Super strong, invulnerable... Hudlin could've easily made a Lothar series where he and Mandrake did their hero thing with Lothar having a more protagonist role.

Because it's netter to elevate the black heroes than blackwashing whites. 


I won't live to see 2099, but I've a Phantom and a Bubblegum Crisis to see...

I just saw the Jesus Trump pic... I have issues.

 Let me preface that I'm neither a fan of Trump nor the most religious person... Last year's Jesus review could be considered blasphemous... but damn... Donald Trump got me beat.


Eagles, fighting jets, The paramedic that says "No" to people brave enough who want to make unusual dildos, is that Rachel McAdams' character from Doctor Strange? Why is he touching John Stewart while Holding Okarun's missing testicle. Is that Shredder and the Foot Clan on top?


Also, he had a stunt with an old lady who does doordash because she needs the money for her husband's cancer treatments...

Oof! The guy who is gutting cancer research funding is calling the whole thing tacky.

Dude... your people staged this to make you look good. Especially after the Jesus bullshit. 


Did the ad imply Trump is a dumbass?



No, seriously, the Domino's ads make Trump seem like a total dumbass...
Dude... your photo ops are hilariously tacky. From these to buying a Tesla at the White House!?
It's like I'm watching Zucker Brothers movies from the 80s... but it's real.

Seriously dude, stop digging your own grave:
It isn't  too hard to say. "Saw a funny meme and I shared it!" 
Now the Gavin Newsom pic from a while back makes sense...

Apparently the MOTU Popcorn buckets and drink holders are off the wall.

 And most definitely won't be available in my neck of the woods:



Yeah... I fucking hate that I can't have these...

But month and a half... Shame that Mom isn't here to see this... the Power Sword drink holder... By the Power of Grey Goose, I have Cirrhosis!!

 Mattel is cooking with that promotion in Brazil.


This is the kind of shit I'd do with Powerball money.

Chuck Norris: Hospitalized

 Chuck Norris... Is currently in the hospital. Chuck Norris was hospitalized. Chuck Norris had a Medical Emergency. Chuck Norris is 86 years old. Chuck Norris, star of Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos had a medical emergency in Hawaii. Chuck Norris... 


All jokes aside, this is worrisome... Chuck Norris might leave us one day and it kinda scares me knowing that I may live in a world without Chuck Norris.

What the Hell? A Stewie Spin-off?

 Does this mean Stewie is out of regular Family Guy?

The premise of the show, which you can read at IGN, makes it seem like it's going to poke fun at the Magic School Bus.

I honestly don't know if that will be enough to last 2 seasons. Feels more like a single episode thing rather than a new show.
