Side view of four IGN journalists in the audience at E3 2003, watching the reveal of Pac-Man VS. They are sitting very rigidly and look unfathomably bored.
Me with my parting shifted further to the left. The hair in the middle of my head looks flatter but there is still a bit of a flick to it.
Me with my new haircut. It's shoulder-length, with heart-shaped parting on the left and a little flick over the forehead on the right. It's got little wavy bits on the ends. It's nice!
Comic #1: Everett True - a stout, bald man with a near-permanent grimace - is stood between two people having a conversation. To the left is a man with a moustache, who is labelled as an "Italian trying very hard to tell something in English". To the right is a man in a bowler cap, who is giggling: "Tee-Hee!". In the second panel, Everett suddenly turns to the man in a bowler cap and curtly asks "CAN YOU TALK ITALIAN?", to which the man responds "No". In the third panel, the man's bowler cap has crumpled over his eyes, and he is shuddering as if he were hit on the head. Everett bellows: "WELL I CAN'T SEE WHAT YOU'VE GOT ON THIS FELLOW THEN!!!"

Wikipedia excerpt: "Development began in early 2014. The game was directed by Metroid Prime trilogy game director Mark Pacini, written by Joseph Staten and conceptualized by Keiji Inafune. The Legend of Zelda, Mega Man and Metroid series were significant influences in its creation. The development was divided between Armature Studio and Comcept into their own distinctive proficiencies, with Armature taking the main primarily role, while Comcept helped with story and world-building. Asobo Studio assisted the development, supporting both studios. The game was released for Windows and Xbox One worldwide in September 2016, making it the first Xbox Play Anywhere program title."

"I’m early in the game, but there’s a point where he’s like, “We can team up if you want?” and I really thought it was a point where the developers were about to give you a choice to tell him to leave you alone. Instead, Samus nods and forces you to work together. Oh well, he’s not great, but not as bad as some reviewers have said."

Screenshot of a written interview: Speaker: There’s a lot of really charming enemies in Super Mario Land 2. I especially liked the “Be” flies from Tree Zone and Mario Zone. Where did they come from? Hosokawa: They’re impossible to step on. We call them “the flies that do nothing”! Kiyotake: I love useless characters that do nothing in games, so the first time I saw the Be fly I burst out laughing. I said, I know there will be people who hate this, but let’s leave it in anyway! Totaka: I loved that character too. I put extra effort into his sound effects. (laughs) Kiyotake: If we had had more time, I would have liked to program in some way for the player to be able to stomp on them. Totaka: No way, it’s better to leave it this way!!! [attached is an image of The Be Fly, captioned "the flies that do nothing"]

Three search suggestions for Cliff Richard. Two of them (the first one from Wikipedia!!) are sporting very obvious AI summaries that the search engine has presumably injected. Both summaries sport a very slight variation on the same core statements. #1: "Learn about the life and career of Cliff Richard, a British singer and actor who has sold over 250 million records worldwide. Find out his achievements, awards, controversies, and personal details from his birth in India to his current residence in New York." #2: "Learn about the life and achievements of Sir Cliff Richard, one of the most successful British artists of all time. Find out his real name, his famous songs, his relationship status and his net worth."

Screenshot of two posts from the "Mario's face" discussion page on Mario Wiki. Text reads: [Topic] "A couple things" "1. As discussed years ago, shouldn't we mention the face's appearance in the Super Mario Bros Super Show's opening? 2. Shouldn't we mention other characters' heads here as well like add the images of characters heads such as the file icons from Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 and the face lift images from Mario Party 1 & 2's Face Lift minigame in the image section?" --TheGreenBeetle (23:05, December 4, 2019) [no replies] [Topic] "Mario's head appears in every game." "Mario's head appears in every game. Whenever there is a icon of Mario, it means that it is Mario's head. That also applies to other characters too. Because of that, there should be articles like Luigi's head, Peach's head, Toad's head, Link's head, etc. That is the thing." - [anon IP address] (18:12, August 5, 2021) [Reply #1] "This article is specifically about Mario's face as an interactable thing like in Super Mario 64, it does not cover any instant where Mario's head is just a menu icon. Articles for the other character's heads would just be repetative and redundant." - Nightwicked Bowser (18:26, August 5, 2021) [Reply #2] "OK." - [anon IP address] (18:27, August 5, 2021)
