Pokemon Pikachu hors d'oeuvres

I still don't understand Pokemon, but I know good cheese and deep-fried Pikachu hors d'oeuvres when I see them. If you've ever wanted to make Pokemon cheesballs, follow these recommendations: "After testing an assortment of soft cheeses... brie still remains the best Pikachu molding foodstuff. The Laughing Cow didn't conform to the mold well, the port wine spread didn't release from the mold well no matter how well the mold was oiled, the rindless brie molded well, but sagged after a few minutes. The Velveeta molded well and held its shape, but, well, it's Velveeta."

Millions of games sold, confusing adults left and right, and now deep-fried Pikachus. Is there anything Pokemon can't do?

I love brie. I love the idea of eating that damn little yellow squirrel thing and not getting electrocuted.

I approve.

'the laughing cow' just sounds incredibly fun

I'm used to the name 'La Vache qui rit'

Which means teh same, but in French ofcourse...
I wonder, is that cheese originated from france? Because my native language isn't french, although it still got that name...

Pokemon (Red and Blue) were good games. If you can get over your macho image and like tile based RPGs and collecting stuff, then they're really neat games. And it's the first RPG that let you play against a human, which is no small feat considering the traditional mechanics of RPG fighting would never work in a player vs. player battle.

All the kids that took to Pokemon really messed it up. Once they figured out that their target audience was six year old retards, they just made fifty sequels exactly like the first game and marketed dumb shit like it was more important than the actual game.
