Thinking of other things other than other ladies 7


I'm back once more with yet another comic about my OCs in a lawyer-friendly version of the "Thinking about other women" meme.

It's good that Ferrari finally decided to jump on the Electric Vehicle bandwagon. The big problem, however, is that the Ferrari Luce is so expensive that you could buy two, or possibly three, Porsche Taycans, depending on which version of the Ferrari Luce you are thinking of purchasing.

Back in 2009, Alfa Romeo had a Space Invaders-themed commercial for the Alfa Romeo Mito. What role Taito played in the making of this commercial directed by Alex & Steffen, remains unknown, however.

I'm hoping that Capcom brings back the Car Breaker bonus level from Street Fighter 2 in a future Street Fighter 6 update, and when they do, I'm hoping that either the Pontiac Aztek or the Jaguar Type 00 becomes the target vehicle in Street Fighter 6's version of the Car Breaker bonus level because the Pontiac Aztek was indirectly responsible for the demise of Pontiac, and the Jaguar Type 00 is the product of Jaguar's dismal rebranding that result from their controversial "Copy Nothing" advertisement.

While Alfa Romeo's automobiles are more stylish, Opel's automobiles are superior due to their good quality reliability.

Even before the infamous "Copy Nothing" advertisement that tarnished Jaguar's reputation, Volvo was already far better than Jaguar due to Volvo having better quality reliability and safety standards.

Arcades of Yesteryear


Do you remember the glory days of the video game arcades? Well, I do. That's why this comic focuses on remembering the days of growing up with Street Fighter, The King of Fighters, Metal Slug, Raiden, Dance Dance Revolution, Pop'n Music, Bishi Bashi, and Puzzle Bobble. but these were the more well-known ones. There might be more arcade obscurities out there, waiting for recognition.

Back in the late 1990s, video game arcades were still alive and well. In fact, some of the best arcade titles such as Puzzle Bobble, Street Fighter, Raiden, and Metal Slug to name a few were brought over to the PlayStation, and these arcade conversions did well. But now, a large number of arcade titles have fallen by the wayside, and of those that have continued to hold out, very few of them aged well. Even the video game arcades have seen the number of good arcade video games dwindle, and they continue to dwindle to this day.

And yes, the "Oh, to be young again..." quote became a popular topic in poetry that it became an actual quote in Miitopia, where Miis afflicted with aging often complain about what they have to do to be young again. Man, I really miss the times when arcades were at their prime...
