Unplug the HDMI cable.

Unplug the HDMI cable.
Unplug the HDMI cable on a Friday night and use an RCA connector instead, then off-handedly mention the picture quality throughout the weekend. Replace HDMI on Sunday night. Then switch back to RCA on Wednesday, but then back to HDMI Friday afternoon. Then switch to RCA Sunday night. "Honey, have you noticed the TV acting strange over the past few weeks?" Do this for two more weeks BUT DO NOT use the same schedule any particular week so that it appears to be erratic. You will get a new TV within a month.

It's getting ported to the PS4 next year, and I'd like to give it a shot, too.

For the record, I only take my cavalier "throw it on top of the protein" approach for meat/bun sandwiches, like a hamburger or pulled pork. For a square sandwich, I do take your "butter both sides" approach, like the rule-adhering sheep you want me to be.
you are such a rebel

I've never played a Pokemon game before. Should I check out Sword or Shield? I'm curious!

Can't tell if this is a well crafted Pokemon joke or just a coincidence?

No joke, I want to play one, but I'm not sure it is for me.
