Masochist's Meal | |
Syd Lexia (Website) / int_1bfe5406 | comment |
Masochist's Meal: Several articles on the site have Syd attempting to eat food which is many years out of date, such as Cabbage Patch Kids cereal from 1985 or Star Wars cookies from 1983. | |

Indestructible Edible | |
Syd Lexia (Website) / int_40a447c3 | comment |
Indestructible Edible: Discussed in Syd's article on Cabbage Patch Kids cereal. He mentions that the cereals that contain more artificial flavours tend to hold up better over time... and unfortunately for him, Cabbage Patch Kids cereal was an outright healthy cereal, and he could only handle about four spoonfuls before getting sick. For the other cereals, it's downplayed; most of the expired ones remain barely edible, but have clearly degraded over time, and the marshmallows tend to shrivel up faster than the rest of the cereal. | |

Syd Lexia (Website) / int_48081842 | comment |
The Stinger: Every article has a final line of all-caps text, usually either one final joke or a phrase from earlier in the article, which links you back to the main page. | |

Bait-and-Switch | |
Syd Lexia (Website) / int_8797239c | comment |
Bait-and-Switch: "Mega Man 3: A Stinking Pile Of Crap" looks like it's going to be talking about the beloved NES game at first... only to reveal that it's actually a review of the far worse, far more obscure DOS version of the game. | |

You Can't Get Ye Flask | |
Syd Lexia (Website) / int_8c83208f | comment |
You Can't Get Ye Flask: Syd has to grapple with the text parser in Mystery House in his review of the game, and quickly grows frustrated. He even provides the page quote. | |

And That's Terrible | |
Syd Lexia (Website) / int_a1b74f5d | comment |
And That's Terrible: In the article Pac-Man: An Accurate Simulation of Your Meaningless Life, one parallel Syd draws between Pac-Man and real life is the fact that keys are valuable. He provides a scoring guide for the different types of keys you can own in real life. Keys to "The Shackles of Your Slaves" are worth the most, but this qualifier is included below: | |

Jobber | |
Syd Lexia (Website) / int_a505fdd7 | comment |
Jobber: "Jobbers of the NES" goes over a list of 10 of the weakest characters in NES games, characterizing them as jobbers and listing their "Deadliest Move" and threat rating. Naturally, Glass Joe is at a high position on the list. | |

Insane Troll Logic | |
Syd Lexia (Website) / int_c5f0119c | comment |
Insane Troll Logic: "DuckTales Is Impossible And Reality As We Know It Is A Giant Fucking Lie" has Syd use a variation of Zeno's Paradox to "prove" that the NES DuckTales is unbeatable... and that the reality we inhabit is not the true reality. Along the way, he also briefly convinces himself that he is a god through similar means. "Pong: Violent, Sexist, and Vile" has Syd attempt to convince the reader that Pong is a violent game that contributes to male power fantasies and objectifies women. It's even lampshaded at the end of the article. | |
