Woo the way the mom came sliding in gave me flashbacks to when I would get gripped up by my ma for doing something stupid.

Zelda timeline is worthless.
It'll work best if the new game just doesn't fit in at all. Start fresh.
I know next to nothing about that game's story but based on what I've seen of the setting, it's probably in an Era where the hero of time isn't a thing, so either before the split (like Skyward Sword) or in the "hero is defeated" timeline with the original LoZ. It's probably not Windows Waker timeline because they freakin love Hero of Time. My money's on "hero is defeated" because Ganon wasn't a thing before the split and the Master Sword rarely gets use in the defeated timeline as far as I know so it would explain why it looks abandoned in the trailers
I can't post this in there because I don't want to be spoiled

The Zelda timeline is like what happens when you put a whole bunch of conspiracy theorists together and tell them to create something.
Also, what up BCT?
Pretty early on in the game I knew that would happen

Nintendo very obviously doesn't give a shit about a timeline idk why other people do.

Was your Africa tour that damn long? Been a minute
Timeline folk are in desperate need of closure

Weren't they the first ones to make one anyway?

Because people wouldn't stop screaming for one. The games arebt sequels or interconnected, they have the same premise and start point but only the direct sequels have anything to do with any timeline.
When it comes to timeline discussions, the search is more fun than the answers. That's how it was back in the day around the time of Ocarina when you had a relatively small number of games that didn't have a lot of up-front plot exposition, so you had to read between the lines to get more out of the games.
The Team Ico games actually leverage this thirst for knowledge from players and do so to great effect. More importantly, Ueda knew players ultimately didn't want closure (no matter how much they said they did), they always want another mystery to track down.
Nerd masturbation at best. Nintendo doesn't care or will attempt to care. Who's to say all the zelda games don't happen in alternative universes?

No I said weren't the fans the first ones to make one back in the day?
People like closure and things "making sense."
As far as the Zelda timeline goes, the games reference each other all the time. Of course with a franchise as popular as Zelda, you're gonna have folks who obsess over the canon.
Me personally, I think all the references and nods to other games in the franchise is a cute touch.

Can't they just think it's fun?
When they constantly having for real arguments about this shit...I dunno if they have fun with it anymore
Sometimes they seem like Charlie from Always Sunny with a conspiracy theory
You're always going to have people that take things very seriously. Just a fact of life. I'm sure there's folks out there who obsess over the canon of Tetris.
Most people enjoy the Zelda franchise in a more casual way.

That's actually a good guess since my skin tone makes me fit right in with DeBarge. But I'm just rocking the blasian all natural, about to cut it into a nice caesar though

SO.
My mousepad is an utter piece of shit and since I'm less busy today than on average, I decide that it's time to replace it.
Awful, right? I decide to head to Office Depot to get a replacement, cause sure, why not? Better than fighting the Wal-Mart crowds in any case. Now, I want something bigger than a normal pad, cause I do design work. That's what my degree is in. I go. They have two sizes: the aforementioned normal and good lord that thing is massive. It's like a foot and a half by three feet. WAAY too big (and way too expensive). So I decide to check the Walmart App to see if I can find something more reasonable. Low and behold I find this:
Fantastic! And it's about a foot by about a foot, exactly the size I want. Bonus! It's available at the Neighborhood Market Wal-Mart on aisle L2, meaning I don't gotta deal with the supercenter crowd. I go. I find some apple juice on sale. I get it. I find a sourdough boule on sale. I get it. I do *not* find an aisle L2 with my mousepad. I don't find aisle L2 or my mousepad. Or any mousepads. So I pop open the app again and "Not available in this store". "Available in the Wal-Mart Supercenter".
T___T
So I buy my bread and juice (both delish BTW), and I head to the supercenter. I go in and head to electronics. I find the normal size mousepads... and... that's it. I wander around. Can't find it. I look at the price for Animal Crossing 3DS. I laugh 'cause they're still charging $30 for it (though Nintendo just dropped the price). Still can't find it. I pop open the app and "Not available in this store or any other store in a 50 mile radius."
T__________T
So I'm about halfway out the store and I unlocking my phone to look at a different app, but the Wal-Mart app is still open and it refreshes and "In stock at this store on Aisle L2".
...
So I go to the cashier and I ask "Where is Aisle L2?" She asks "What are you looking for?" I show her and she takes me to it.
This is what it looks like on the shelf:
BRUH.
Anyway, I got a new mousepad now and it's pretty fucking sweet.
is a stealth remake of the first game, meaning they could very well be rebooting the timeline.

I just about beat up an old man today.
Old fart I never seen before looked me in the face and went, "UGH!"
I guess he hates sexy bitches.

I experienced a miracle, woman at a diner asked to get a portrait done and gave me the money and photo upfront. I wonder why it took so long for this to happen.
Hillary won by 3 million more votes but posters continue to act like it was the reverse.
Congrats!
