Whose job is it to go around burying dead Marios?
Probably the same ridiculously optimistic Toad from the Mario movie.
The piranha plants probably.
Oh, sure, make the guys with no hands or feet do it!
Sounds like DEI, so I think it's not going to fly in the current political climate.
does Lemmy have an imsorryjon community?
Wtf did I just read
Art my friend, art
Aaaaannnnd subbed, I need to dig up that SpongeBob horror comic and post it there lol
Oh, the Bikini Bottom Horror? It's great, the ending especially is surprisingly amazing!
Don't forget BertStrips!
Heh, thanks. Subbed.
….and BLOCKED!!!
The fact that I already knew the answer to this embarrasses me
Why? I see it on my main feed all the time, it's just osmosis.
It means I don't touch grass nearly as often as I pretend to
Leave the grass alone, it's got dead Marios under it.
Oh no!
XD
Unpleasant is not a word I would have used for this information. Informative is the word I would have used
Does it explain how or why there are so many Marios?
You ever watch Orphan Black? Based on a true story.
Mario is a special breed of mushroom given false memories and a backstory so that they will grow to have a hero complex and protect the mushroom kingdom. Only one sprouts from the mother mycelium at a time.
"We still talk about you"
"We-a still talkabout-a you, woohoo!"
that means whenever the 1up falls down the pit of death because it went the wrong way out of it's block it's just going back to where it came from
Hmm. That doesn't very neatly explain the ones that pop up in places where it's impossible to die.
Migratory
Are you suggesting 1-up mushrooms migrate?
You've never had to chase down a 1up mushroom?
I'll admit, I was fooled by the lack of a husk, but yes, I see it now.
Perhaps they're carried. It would be pretty easy to grip them by the husk.
It’s not a question of where he grips it
Look up ant cordyceps, learn how some fungus can move around, and then have trouble sleeping for a few days.
Proof that zombies do exist
tell me the name of god you fungal piece of shit
So the only wasted lives are the ones you have left when you complete the game...
“what did you do to my brother?!“ (pulls out 9mm)
@The_Picard_Maneuver This... actually kind of makes sense......
Also, reminds me of Super Meat Boy. 😁
