Waching daily Dec 23 2017

We've all imagined stumbling upon treasures of unimaginable value.

But while it seems like just a fantastic daydream, it turns out there some very real are lost

fortunes lurking out there for some lucky soul to rediscover.

Here's a look at some very real hidden treasures still waiting to be found.

Forrest Fenn's treasure

In 2010, art collector Forrest Fenn allegedly buried a chest containing millions of dollars

worth of treasure, and then published a 24-line poem containing clues to the location.

So far, Fenn estimates over 65,000 people have tried and failed to find the treasure,

which is somewhere in the Rocky Mountains.

After three people lost their lives trying to find it, though, the police issued a warning

telling people to stay away.

With the treasure still undiscovered, Fenn occasionally surfaces to give out more hints.

"The treasure is not in a graveyard."

"You call that a clue?"

Lost at sea

Perhaps the greatest source of lost treasure is shipwrecks.

Over the centuries, numerous vessels have sunk with billions of dollars worth of gold,

silver, and other valuables.

For example, the legendary pirate Captain Kidd supposedly sunk his treasure ship The

Adventure off the coast of Madagascar some time before 1701, but so far, despite claims

to the contrary, nobody has actually found it.

The same is true of the San Miguel, the flagship of a Spanish fleet laden with loot from the

new world that went down in a hurricane in 1715.

And then there's the SS Islander, which sank in 1901 carrying an estimated $265 million

worth of gold.

The ship has been found, but so far, most of the gold is still missing.

Perhaps the most famous fortune lost at sea, though, belongs to the Atocha, which sank

in 1622.

In 1985, most of the ship was located, boasting a treasure worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, part of the ship that housed the captain's quarters, where the most valuable

artifacts are presumed to have been stored, has never been found, meaning the Atocha may

still have even more booty to give up if only it can be located.

The Amber Room

Once known as the Eighth Wonder of the World, the Amber Room of St. Petersburg's Catherine

Palace was an entire room made of amber.

During World War II, though, the Nazis dismantled it, packed it into 27 crates, and sent it...

somewhere.

So far, nobody knows exactly what happened to it, though one panel from the room actually

surfaced in Germany in 1997 and was used to help create a full scale reproduction.

But was the rest of the original room destroyed during the war?

Or is still out there somewhere waiting to be found?

Only time will tell!

The Irish Crown Jewels

Back in 1907, the Irish Crown Jewels were kept inside a safe in the library of the Bedford

Tower of Dublin Castle.

And then one day, they weren't.

On the morning of July 6, it was discovered that the keys to the library were missing,

and after an investigation it turned out the Crown Jewels had vanished as well.

The fact that there was no sign of forced entry pointed to an inside job, with most

people suspecting Francis Shackleton, second in command to the Officer of Arms.

However, after completing a prison sentence for bank fraud, he went missing too and was

never seen again.

Coincidence?

King John's Crown Jewels

England's King John just can't catch a break.

He's immortalized as the king that gave away the power of the monarchy when he signed the

Magna Carta, and he's the bad guy in every Robin Hood movie ever made.

He also managed to lose not just the country's Crown Jewels, but a massive amount of treasure,

too.

Exactly what happened is a mystery, but sometime around 1216, it seems King John and his retinue

were transporting a treasure that included the Crown Jewels when they were caught in

a flooded swamp near Long Sutton.

The Crown Jewels and the rest of the treasure was swept away to a watery grave, and despite

over eight centuries of searching, nobody has managed to find them yet.

Treasure of John Dillinger

During the early 1930s, the American midwest was gripped by the terror of Public Enemy

No. 1...

"And your name?

John.

John Dillinger.

Alright, everybody hold right where you are this is a robbery."

Three weeks prior to his death, Dillinger and his gang of bank robbers were nearly caught

by the FBI near the Bohemia roadhouse outside of Mercer, Wisconsin.

According to a legend published in a sensational 1950s adventure book, just before the chapter

on "The G-String Buccaneer", there's buried treasure in those hills.

Escaping through the woods after a shootout, Dillinger stopped and supposedly buried a

suitcase containing $200,000.

He got plastic surgery and planned retrieve the money and flee to South America, but he

was gunned down before he could pull off his big escape.

Presumably, it's still out there somewhere waiting to be dug up.

Maybe.

What Things Do People Actually Buy With Food Stamps? - Duration: 6:35.

The foundation for food stamps goes back to the early 30s and The Great Depression, but

it wasn't until 1939 when Secretary of Agriculture, Henry Wallace, created the 'Food Stamps

Plan' that the initiative was formalized.

Iterations of that act would follow, each with rules on what you could and couldn't

do with those stamps.

Right now, the newest legislation regarding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program,

or SNAP, doesn't allow the purchase of booze, cigarettes, or food sold for in-store eating.

It's thought 42.6 million Americans are receiving SNAP benefits, and even though this

should be easing the weight of the yoke of the poor, a lot of Americans are unhappy about

food stamps.

Today we'll look at why that is, in this episode of the Infographics Show, Top 10 things

people buy with food stamps.

Don't forget to subscribe and click the bell button so that you can be part of our

Notification Squad.

As we said, people cannot buy tobacco and alcohol with their food stamps, or even a

taco from 7-Eleven, but some people fret that the average recipient of the stamps who gets

$125.51 per month is filling up their cart with luxury items or junk food.

Just so you know, the government also does not allow the purchase of pet foods, soaps,

other cosmetics, paper products, vitamins and medicine, household supplies, seeds, or

plants.

Now we'll tell you what they can, and do, buy.

We will also tell you what the top 10 items are for households not receiving food stamps.

Number 10.

Lunchmeat Lunchmeat comes in at number 10, and for households

not getting any SNAP, number 10 is ice cream.

This data by the way comes from a study by the U.S. Department of Agriculture that actually

runs the SNAP program.

Lunchmeat was number 17 on the list for most bought commodity items of non-SNAP households.

If you are not from America and wondering what lunchmeat is, it's just cooked, processed

meat such as sliced ham.

It could also mean sausage.

Is it good for you?

Many health gurus say certainly not.

Let's just say number 10 might not be the right choice, but with little cash to spare,

it might also be one of the only choices.

About 1.5 cents from every dollar for commodities went on these meats.

Number 9.

Frozen handhelds and snacks What is a frozen handheld you might ask?

An example would be a Hot Pocket, something you can cook easily, as its ready-made, and

eat like a sandwich.

Are they good for you?

Apparently not.

These fast-food, microwaveable snacks according to some media don't really join the class

of "real food."

Frozen handhelds and snacks didn't make the top 20 for non-SNAP households.

Number 8.

Fresh Chicken Here's where non-SNAP and SNAP households

are very similar.

Fresh chicken is number 11 on the list for most bought commodities on the non-SNAP list.

Can chicken be bad for you?

That's also a matter of controversy.

According to the documentary, Food Matters, the answer is yes, but for the most part fresh

chicken is a good thing on your shopping list.

It's full of protein and minerals, and depending on how you stand on the subject, may have

been farmed ethically or unethically.

Number 7.

Cold cereal Who doesn't enjoy a good bowl of frosted

flakes?

Cold cereal is both number seven on the most bought commodity item for SNAP households

and non-SNAP households.

According to the report, most of this is spent on kids cereal, which is usually the very

sugary stuff and so not exactly full of health benefits.

The study also said, "All family cereal was ranked first for non-SNAP households and

fifth for SNAP households."

Number 6.

Baked Breads Bread, an old saying goes, is "the staff

of life".

That's because at some points in history, people haven't had much else to eat.

It's demonized a little these days as being the reason people are growing in size, but

who doesn't eat bread?

For typical households, bread is the fourth most purchased commodity.

According to LiveStrong, bread is just fine, and contains iron, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin

and folate.

The site just warns about eating sweetened bread.

Number 5.

Cheese If you saw any number of articles on America's

excess cheese, you'll know why cheese is being put into virtually everything.

The country just produces way too much of the stuff, but the cheese wheels of business

just have to keep turning.

Bloomberg reports that right now, America has 1.2 billion pounds of surplus cheese.

It's not surprising then that regular households have it as the number three commodity.

It makes you fat if you eat a lot of it, we all know that, but it tastes damn fine.

Number 4.

Bag snacks Another thing high on the list for SNAP households

and maybe one of the things here that really can't be said to be good for you at all,

unless all you buy in a bag is roasted almonds.

It's number five on non-SNAP households, so there isn't really any difference.

Most of what is purchased are chips and pretzels, and just about anywhere you read, you'll

find these things are almost empty in nutritional value.

They are highly fattening, full of salts and other chemicals, and being this high on both

lists, we could hypothesize that chips addiction is one of the reasons for the American obesity

epidemic and consequent high rates of heart disease, among other diseases.

Number 3.

Ground Beef If you've seen our shows featuring burgers,

you'll know that Americans are the masters of burgers.

On average, it's said that people in the U.S. eat three burgers a week, and judging

by ground beef coming so high, you'd think some of those burgers are made at home.

Ground beef is number six for regular households.

Is the stuff good for you?

Most health experts agree it's ok in small amounts, but it seems that's not how it's

being consumed.

The quality of beef is also a factor, but most nutritionists do say go easy on the red

meat.

Number 2.

Milk There have been arguments for and against

milk going on for a long time, and they are still going on today.

Some advocates of milk consumption say it makes us grow big and strong, and those against

it say we are not cows, and if we don't want to grow fat and unhealthy, we should

not consume milk in large amounts.

Well, it's the number one purchase for regular households, so whatever the experts say, people

are just going to drink it.

Number 1.

Soft Drinks This takes the number two spot for regular

households, and so you could say Americans love these sugary drinks whether rich, poor

or in the middle.

In fact, studies revealed that one third of U.S. citizens drink these sugar-laden drinks

every day, which is actually quite a lot less than a few years ago.

No one has ever doubted that they are entirely bad for you, and numerous studies have shown

how they are a major factor in the American fatness, and the attendant illness, problem.

In conclusion, we could say the American diet is pretty bad for both SNAP recipients and

non-SNAP households.

Of course, many nutritional foods are not on this list, but there is still a lot of

junk food here.

What is perhaps also important to see is that those people that criticize SNAP families

for wasting their money on junk food buy almost the same as they do.

As Quartz said in an article after reviewing the study, "The reality is that most Americans

consistently use their grocery money to buy unhealthy items, and food stamp beneficiaries

are no different in this regard."

So, what do you think about food stamps?

A worthwhile handout or a waste of money?

Raise the Staff of Authority - Duration: 1:24.

If you're not very mature, if you're a child of God, if you're born again, you

have this authority. If you don't know how to use it, you have this authority.

But listen, God will not do for us what he's given us the ability to do for

ourselves. Moses led the children of Israel out of Egypt. He gets to the Red

Sea, Pharaoh's coming behind him. Remember, Charlton Heston coming behind him or

Yul Brynner. Charlton Heston was there. Yul Brynner is coming behind him.

This is for the old people. And Moses cries out to God and said, "God save us!" You know God

said to Moses? "Take the staff that I have given you and wave it over the sea." He's

calling out to God saying, "God Pharaoh's about to kill us come and help us." God

said, "I put the authority in that rod. Don't sit here cry out to me. I gave you

the authority to deliver the people." We sit down here crying out to God saying, "Oh

Lord, the devil's against us help us, help us, help us Jesus." And Jesus is saying, "I

can't help you anymore than I've already helped you. I gave you all authority over

the enemy so that nothing could by any means harm you if you would use the

authority."

crowd afterward.

They constantly require time to recharge their batteries.

#11 - INFJs normally have a small circle of friends and favor to function alone.

Therefore, they do well with various other a lot more grounded kinds that advise them

to live in the moment.

An "Advocate" is a good fixer-upper.

With his or her capacity to see an additional individual's true motives as well as intentions,

7 Unnecessarily Horrifying Characters in Kid-Friendly Games (N64) - Duration: 16:36.

Sometimes the best scares come from the most unexpected places.

When we're playing a horror game like Resident Evil, we're always on edge, expecting something

spooky to come out at any moment.

While they definitely do scare the hell out of us, we already know they're coming.

Now, when they come from a cute and cuddly "kids" game, well that's a different story.

So today, we're gonna take a look at some of the characters that brought out these moments

in N64 games.

And we're going to talk about one game per entry, because that's more fun.

These are 7 unnecessarily horrifying characters in kid-friendly games.

The Ghost of Wrinkly Kong from Donkey Kong 64

Wrinkly Kong is a kindly old gorilla who appeared throughout the Donkey Kong Country series.

Unlike her husband, Cranky Kong, she actually tries to help the Kongs by offering them advice

about the games items and objects.

Through her life she was very caring and intelligent, being a faithful wife to Cranky and a possible

grandmother or mother to Donkey Kong.

That's still a bit up in the air.

Unfortunately she passed away after the events of Donkey Kong Country 3.

Throughout Donkey Kong 64, we are left with sad reminders of her life through these Wrinkly Doors that--

Holy shit!

Alright, so Wrinkly Kong does make a posthumous appearance in Donkey Kong 64 as a ghost.

While she assures you that she is not there to harm you and you shouldn't be afraid,

those bone-chilling sounds of her spirit coming forward were enough to make any child actively

avoid every single Wrinkly Door they came across, no matter how helpful her advice was.

It's almost a shame how freaky she is in this game, as she is still just as sweet as

she was in life, even being the only Kong in the game to offer her help for free.

Despite being dead, Wrinkly Kong continues to make appearances in Donkey Kong games,

even being featured as a playable character in DK: King of Swing, DK: Jungle Climber and

Donkey Kong Barrel Blast.

Thankfully without that hellish ghostly shriek.

Clanker from Banjo Kazooie

Back in 1998, an instant classic was released in the form of Banjo-Kazooie.

The worlds were fairly small, contained and cute, as seen in the first two worlds 'Mumbo's

Mountain' and 'Treasure Trove Cove'.

When entering the third world for the first time, it seems to be the same case.

You enter a small sewer system with some ugly crabs walking about, when suddenly you find

yourself in an enormous body of water… and you clearly aren't alone.

You're greeted by a pair of big of creepy eyes, and an even bigger set of sharp teeth.

This is Clanker, Gruntilda the Witch's garbage disposal system.

Clanker is a tragic character that only becomes terrifying when you begin to realize what

he truly is.

While he may seem to be a completely mechanical fish-shark thing, when you enter his body

you find organic organs and bones inside.

Just what exactly was Clanker before Gruntilda found him?

He is completely submerged under sewer water when you first meet him, despite him having

to breath through a blowhole, so it's clear that he is not being treated well.

After helping Banjo find the rest of the jigsaw pieces in the area, he is never seen again…

until ten years later in the 2008 title Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.

In the level 'Banjoland', which is a museum of every Banjo level from the first two games.

Clanker makes an appearance here… cut up into many, many pieces and scattered throughout

the level.

Taking his organic-interior into account, this becomes incredibly gruesome.

He's still alive too, meaning that he has to live with this horror now.

In some pre-release footage of the original Banjo-Kazooie, Clanker appears to be a fully

organic shark.

So what happened to him that turned him into this monstrosity?

The god of this world is truly cruel to Clanker.

Brain Andross from Star Fox 64

At the beginning of the Star Fox series, Dr. Andross was a simple well-intentioned and

respected scientist.

However, his lust for power turned him insane, and was eventually banished to the planet

Venom, where he began his conquest for the entire galaxy.

Andross is the final boss of Star Fox 64, and playing through a normal route has you

face his monstrous creepy monkey face in some drug-induced nightmare arena.

Making it to the end of Venom has you facing Andross as normal, until you obliterate his

face, revealing… this disgusting abomination.

The true final fight is with Andross' disembodied floating brain and retinas.

It's one of the most disgusting final bosses in a Nintendo game, and is incredibly unnerving

seeing it move around… especially those retinas.

It's sad just how far Andross has fallen from grace, going from a respected scientist

to an eldritch abomination.

And if that wasn't enough, they managed to make him look even more grotesque in the

3DS remake, Star Fox 64 3D.

Luckily, Brain Andross is absent from the second remake, Star Fox Zero, instead being

replaced by a metallic robot Andross.

Although it feels a bit wrong to not have him around anymore, but perhaps it's for the

The Killer Piano in Super Mario 64

Sometimes our assumptions can get the best of us.

For example, assuming that there won't be anything horrifying in a series as playful

and wholesome as Super Mario.

We were all guilty of this before playing Super Mario 64.

Never again now.

When entering the level "Big Boo's Haunt", the atmosphere feels .. incredibly uneasy,

one that feels almost out of place in a Mario game.

But whatever, it's probably just the standard Mario ghosts, like Boos and Dry Bones, right?

Well…

Meet the Killer Piano, infamous for making a generation of kids shit their pants collectively.

This seemingly normal piano becomes a musical greeting card from hell the second you get

too close to it.

Horrible jagged teeth protrude from it as it stomps towards you, while making sounds

that sound like someone is smashing all of its keys at once.

It's impossible to kill this piano as well, despite the official Nintendo Power Player's

Guide stating that it was possible.

That was a lie.

Maybe it was a typo, or maybe it was meant to instill false security.

Who knows.

Perhaps it's the latter, because the developers had the nerve to place a red coin behind this thing.

Thankfully, the Killer Piano has only appeared in Super Mario 64 and its DS remake.

While it did make cameos in both Mario Party 2 and Mario Party 8, it was luckily detained

behind the invisible walls of the game boards.

Dead Hand from Ocarina of Time

Unlike the Mario series, The Legend of Zelda is a bit more realistic… well, as realistic

a Nintendo game can be.

Having said that, scary moments were a bit more commonplace in the series by the time

that Ocarina of Time was released, such as the Wallmasters from A Link to the Past.

However, no amount of creepy pixelated hands could prepare you for this disgusting mess

of polygons.

In the second half of the game, Link must venture through the sewer system beneath Kakariko Village.

This sewer system is full of corpses and enormous spiders, which really gets even worse when

you realize that the entire town has been drinking corpse water this entire time.

But anyways, towards the end of this mini-dungeon, you enter a small room with what appears to

be long, bloody pale arms sticking out of the ground.

Getting too close to investigate causes them to grab you by the head, revealing the horrifying

Dead Hand to rise from the ground!

Dead Hand is hands-down one of the most disturbing enemies in the entire Zelda series.

It appears to be a mass of flabby flesh covered in patches of dried blood, slowly crawling

towards you as it's horrendously long hands, complete with overgrown red fingernails, pins

you down so it can gnaw at you with its gaping large mouth.

Eventually, Link is able to overcome the abomination and gains the Lens of Truth.

However, even after it is killed, its body does not disappear like most other enemies

in the game.

Instead, its body lays there, convulsing as if rigor mortis is setting in.

It's insane how much they went out of their way to make this one enemy so goddamn horrifying.

It appears that Dead Hand was somewhat censored in the 3DS remake, having less bloody patches

on its body.

However, now it just looks like a big blob of flabby skin.

You either need to go all the way with this guy, or not at all.

There's no in-between for Dead Hand.

O2 from Kirby 64

Despite its cute and cuddly exterior, the Kirby series has some seriously fucked up enemies.

From Marx Soul in Kirby Super Star to Star Dream in Kirby Planet Robobot, it seems they

try to outdo themselves in every game by having the most unexpectedly terrifying final boss

to appear in a game about a cute pink marshmallow.

Today, however, we'll be looking at perhaps the most well-known final boss of the Kirby

series, and possibly the creepiest.

Zero first appeared in the Super Nintendo title 'Kirby's Dreamland 3' as the true

final boss.

Virtually nothing was known about him at the time other than the fact that he is the creator

of Dark Matter, the final boss from Kirby's Dreamland 2.

He is destroyed at the end of the game, likely to never be seen again.

Except he is seen again, in the form of 02, the final boss of Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards.

It's unknown how exactly Zero was reincarnated, but two things are certain; he's back and

he is pissed.

Taking on the appearance of a fallen angel, complete with a halo and red wings, 02 actually

cries blood in his concept art, and small splotches of what appears to be blood come

out of his eye with every hit it takes.

This is the first and only appearance of blood in a Kirby game, and it definitely gets the

impact it was looking for.

After his defeat, 02 and the Dark Matter deteriorate into nothing, and are finally vanquished for good.

However, Dark Matter recently starting seeping back into the games in Planet Robobot…

Perhaps Zero will return as 03 someday…?

The Zombies from Conker's Bad Fur Day

While not exactly what you'd call a "kids" game,

Conker's Bad Fur Day is still not the kind of game where you'd expect to be legitimately scared.

It's a mostly raunchy and comedic adventure, taking jabs at Rare's usual cutesy gameworlds

as seen in Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong 64, complete with googly eyes on damn near everything.

However, things get a little spooky whenever you enter the aptly named "spooky" chapter.

In this chapter, Conker travels to his great-great-great-great-great grandfather, Count Batula's mansion.

An angry village mob soon arrives at the front door, revealing that Count Batula is a vampire.

Shocker.

Conker and Batula team up, and put the villagers into a grinder, killing them and feeding their blood directly to the Count.

Eventually the Count becomes so overweight, and ends up falling into the grinder himself, killing him.

Afterwards, Conker is left alone in the mansion, when suddenly the dead rise to attack.

These Zombies are presumably the remains of the villagers from earlier in the night, and are actually quite frightening.

They have unpleasant gurgling moaning noises, and feature bloody and decaying flesh all over their bodies,

in addition to a rotting eyeball hanging from their eye socket.

Soon enough, the mansion is full of them and the only way out is through them.

Like many Zombies throughout different forms of media, these Zombies can only be killed with a shot to the head

The gameplay switches to a third-person shooter for this segment, completing the whole 'Resident Evil' feeling this chapter oozes.

Again, while not a children's game, let's not pretend like we didn't all play, or at least try to play this game when we were younger.

I guess this level put us back in our places, running back to our Super Mario 64s and Banjo-Kazooies.

Although they had their fair share of scares too, so it looks like nowhere is safe.

The Moon From Majora's Mask

Honestly, we could fill an entire list of entries just from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.

The game has no shortage of absolutely horrifying characters, from the Skull Kid, to the Happy

Mask Salesman to the Majora's Mask itself.

But for now, we're going to be looking at the one character who is with you for your

entire journey.

The constant reminder that looms over your head to make sure you know that time is running

out, and everyone you know will be dead soon.

The Moon from Majora's Mask makes sure you feel rushed and panicked everytime you look

up in the sky as he gets closer and closer with each passing day.

Visible from just about every outdoor area in the game, the Moon slowly creeps down towards

Termina until the third and final day where it makes impact with the ground and kills everyone.

Furthermore, the Moon has a constant look of pure anger as it stares down at you.

It's unclear if this is the actual moon from the sky, or an original creation made by the Majora's Mask.

It is rather strange how small it is compared to the actual moon in other Zelda games, but

this could be explained by Termina being a in different dimension from Hyrule.

There is no mention of the Triforce or Zelda in Termina afterall.

Towards the beginning of the game, a gem falls from the Moon, called the Moon's Tear.

Did this thing cry? Could it be possible that the Moon doesn't want this?

Is it being forced down to the ground against its will?

Is it even sentient?

These are all questions that have no answers, and perhaps its best that they remain unanswered.

Despite its obvious rocky exterior, the final area of the game takes place on the surface

of the Moon, depicted as a sunny meadow with a single large tree in the middle.

Butterflies float about as four masked children run around the tree, with a lone child wearing

the Majora's Mask sitting underneath the tree.

The Moon is truly an enigma in the world of Termina.

Early screenshots of the game show a faceless moon, with the ugly face we've come to fear

being added in later.

Well, it certainly made those short three days feel a lot shorter, so I guess the face

got the job done.

Let's be thankful that the Moon doesn't have a face in any other Zelda game.

Or in real life for that matter.

The True Meaning of Christmas - Duration: 4:53.

(gentle piano)

- [Narrator] As the night drew to a close

Grant was very, very down.

Jack Frost was closing in

and he had yet to crack the Christmas code.

- Whoa! Whoa!

Too much nog!

Ugh! Grant, what's wrong?

- I've been trying all day and I still haven't

figured out the true meaning of Christmas.

- I have a tip for you.

Christmas starts with a C, right?

So does the word, corporation.

- Ugh. Exhausting.

Grant, it's simple.

We're spending time together

taking time for other people.

That's what Christmas is all about.

- Really?

I guess you're right.

Thanks, Trap.

- Any time, Grant.

Now, let's figure out how to pay

for this bar we reserved, right?

There's only six of us

so it's gonna be pretty expensive.

- Aww, dang! I got a flight to catch!

- You going back to Chicago, Raph?

- Yeah, the whole family is headed back home.

- Wow. You know, families coming together

from wherever they are.

That's the true meaning of Christmas.

- [Raph] Yeah! - Families.

- What?

- Hmm? Family, Grant. Family.

This isn't hard.

It's when people come together no matter--

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

A second ago you said that telling people you love them

was the true meaning of Christmas.

- Families come in all shapes and sizes, Grant.

- Totally.

- I think that might be the true meaning of Christmas.

- Yes! - Yeah.

- I couldn't agree more.

- In what sense?

How is "families come in all shapes and sizes"

the true meaning of Christmas?

- Christmas is about

love, and giving, and family, and hope.

- That's just a list of nice things.

Not every nice thing is a Christmas thing.

- Well, Grant, if you think about it,

aren't lists the true meaning of Christmas?

- Yes!

- All different things coming together

onto one page.

- Trap, I swear to God.

- The Twelve Days of Christmas, checking it twice.

- Stop it!

- Grant, calm down, have some hot cocoa

or a mint or some turkey or a cookie.

- Oh! All my Christmas favorites!

- Cookies?

Just vaguely cookies are your Christmas favorite?

- It doesn't matter what people eat on Christmas.

What's important is that they get full.

- Yes!

- Like a hug from the inside.

God, that's what Christmas is all about, isn't it?

- Is it just that winter sucks?

Like, you're cold so you have to dress things up

in Christmas colors?

- Red! - Green!

- Green! - Red!

- It's about giving.

- That's the true meaning.

- And family.

- That's the true-- - And hope.

- That's-- - And love.

- That's the true meaning of Christmas.

- But most of all

it's about the big guy.

- Santa! - Jesus!

- Right!

- Jesus! - Santa!

- Oh!

- Santa! - Jesus!

- This is exactly what I'm talking about!

Frosted Flakes has one mascot!

Christmas has bad branding!

- You're telling me.

- Jesus?

- That's right!

I'm Jesus Christ.

- Wow.

Why would Jesus Christ bartend a holiday party

with a bunch of comedy writers?

- Tips, baby.

- Oh.

- Grant, a lot of people are confused

about the true meaning of Christmas.

- Really?

- Really.

But the truth is, it's all about the story of one man.

Jack Frost.

- What?

- Jack Frost.

He covers the world with snow

and brings the smell of wood smoke

to one and all.

- You mean like, that Old Man Winter guy?

- No. Old Man Winter is someone else.

Jack Frost is his own man.

- Huh.

- Huh. That's--

- What?

- That's dumb.

- I think we're just a little surprised.

Jack Frost is like a minor character

in the Christmas pantheon.

- Yes.

Why would a character that I've barely

fucking heard of be the true meaning of Christmas?

It's fucking bananas!

- Is it?

A moment ago you were fighting with everyone.

Now look. Perfect agreement.

- Huh.

- That's Jack Frost

working his wintry magic to bring people closer together.

- Wow. I guess you're right.

- Hey, Grant.

Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas, Jesus.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

- Merry Christmas! - Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas. - Merry Christmas!

- [Narrator] From all of us here at College Humor,

Happy Holidays!

And remember what I always say...

Keep it cold.

(maniacal laughter)

That's right! It was me, Jack Frost,

the whole series!

2017 Snoglobes - Video Game Awards - Duration: 16:39.

2017 has been the best year for Snoman Gaming yet, and thanks to your help we hit 100,000

subscribers, in fact, actually, Youtube sent me the 100k plaque, but they made it out of

snow, so uhh...it's melted...but it's also been a phenomenal year for gaming, perhaps

the best in recent memory.

It's been hit after hit every single month and I've had such a hard time narrowing

down my choices for the Snoglobes this year, which are my video game awards in case you

didn't know, that's what I'm kinda getting to.

Things are going to look a little different this time around, instead of having 3 nominees

and a winner for every category, I'm going to quickly get to the victor of the awards

and spend a little more time talking about each one.

The Game of the Year will still have 5 nominees like normal, however.

It's probably also important to remind you that I haven't played every game out there,

and this is a personal list of what stood out to me the most, so don't get super mad

if your favorite didn't make the cut.

There's a lot to cover so let's dive right in.

The first award we'll be giving away is for this year's Cutest Game.

There were a lot of charming & adorable stories told in 2017, most of which seemed to come

out of nowhere and surprise me with how good they were, but I think without a doubt the

one that captured my heart the most was A Hat In Time.

In my Good Game Design on this title, I talked a lot about its creation and how it was developed,

but I didn't get a chance to just gush about all the things I loved about it.

I've heard complaints regarding Mario Odyssey, saying people missed the lengthier star missions

from previous games, since now it's a much faster paced treasure hunt, so if I hear these

concerns, I try to direct them to A Hat in Time.

Every single act has so much personality bursting at the seams, and it never feels repetitive

or like it ran out of ideas.

It keeps getting wackier and more ambitious with every mission, and each one can take

anywhere from 10 minutes to half an hour!

But no matter where Hat Girl travels to, from a terrifying haunted manor to the sky-high

peaks of the Alpine, it always made me smile and was cute as heck from start to finish.

Hat Girl herself is delightful with all the different outfits she can wear and how she

sees the world through a child's eyes.

The way she interacts with the different characters were the highlights of the game for me, and

the supporting cast did nothing but emphasize the theming Gears for Breakfast was going for.

A Hat in Time threw caution to the wind and strived to be extraordinary, and I don't

think I've ever seen an indie studio give so much love and attention to how the game

played as well as how the world would appear.

It exudes polish, and after waiting years for its release, I can finally say that it's

exactly what I was hoping it would be.

Next up, we have the "It's Like Dark Souls" award.

This phrase has gotten a lot of use this year, mostly in a tongue in cheek way to simply

describe when a game is really difficult, but there have been a few titles that lived

up to this comparison.

While I wish it hadn't become such a meme, I can't help but think that the best title

that actually exemplifies the Dark Souls experience is Hollow Knight.

Yes of course it's a 2D Metroidvania, but the tone and atmosphere of the Souls series

is absolutely present in this fascinating adventure.

Hollow Knight has a strong focus on combat, and many of the boss battles exhibit the same

tense moments that reminded me of why I loved Dark Souls so much.

You have to learn patterns and become a better player in order to succeed - you will die

many times and have to pick yourself back up to try again, all while losing your sou-

I mean Geo - in the process.

But even further, the expansive world and hidden backstory drew me in and made me question

what happened here ages ago.

Hollow Knight just keeps on giving and when you think it's nearing the end, you aren't

even close.

It ramps up as you gain more abilities and challenges you in many different ways, from

learning the locations because of a limited map, to platforming gauntlets to test your

endurance, to balancing health as you slaughter your way through waves of enemies.

This is the first game produced by Team Cherry, which was a development team of 4 people,

and this blows my mind considering the full-scale quality release that is the final product.

If you're interested in compelling Souls-like stories, or the challenge that comes along

with them, with a base price of $15, you cannot go wrong with Hollow Knight, and it has quickly

become one of my favorite campaigns of this year.

Unfortunately, amidst all of the fantastic titles in 2017, there were some disappointments

as well, and now we're going to award the biggest one.

Of course there was AAA drama with games like Battlefront 2's lootboxes or Destiny 2's

locking of previously available content behind new DLC, but I didn't play those titles,

for good reason.

Instead I want to talk about the game that let me down the most: Yooka-Laylee.

I described at length my issues in my Banjo vs. Yooka video back in May, but supposedly

they've fixed some of these problems in recent patches, such as being able to skip

cutscenes and adjusting the slippery controls of the snow plow, but the sad truth for me

is that it simply is too late for that.

I've said from the start that if Yooka-Laylee had been given an extra 6 months to a year

of development it would have gone a long way in creating a fuller, more enjoyable experience

overall.

Instead what we're left with is a skeleton of a collectathon, a blueprint of what it

could have been.

There's references to past games and cheeky banter abounding but the core gameplay and

content feels lackluster compared to its history of great 3D Platformers.

Even if they continue to make small revisions, I don't think it would fix my main issue,

which has always been the lack of meaningful secrets in Yooka, especially after teasing

some big reveals, and to this day we still have nothing of value or wonder, but instead

what feels like a hastily completed project trying to be the first one out of the gate

for the 2017 collectathon rare-vival.

I can certainly still hope for a more thought out sequel in Playtonic's future and am

interested to see where they go from here, but for now, we've gotten 2 other 3D platformers

this year that are better in almost every aspect.

This brings us to the "What time is it?" award, and this one goes to the game that

was so enthralling that I just couldn't put the controller down and then eventually

realize that hours have gone by without even noticing.

It's hard to find a game that can draw you in without a care in the world these days,

but a few titles had me pining to play more while I fulfilled my other obligations.

And the one that captivated me the most was Breath of the Wild.

This game was truly a magical affair, and something I'd never seen from the Zelda

franchise before.

It emphasized discovery and exploration in ways I've only seen other open world games

dream of doing, by simply letting you free to wander the plains of Hyrule and reveal

everything hiding in its world.

When it first came out, people were already claiming it to be their Game of the Year,

but now that the dust has settled some quickly point out its flaws like the lack of enemy

variety or the annoyance of weapon durability, but I can't shake from my mind how engaging

my first playthrough was.

Breath of the Wild is sort of a unique case where playing through it again won't have

nearly the same impact that it did on your initial pilgrimage, but the secrets you'll

discover and the people you'll meet on that first runthrough are unforgettable.

The world is littered with such a vast amount of shrines, korok seeds, enemy camps, minibosses

and memories that no matter how you get from point A to point B, you're going to find

something along the way, and more often than not, a distraction so tantalizing, you'll

spend an extra several hours on a side-excursion before heading back to your original plan.

Zelda is normally a pretty linear series, but Breath of the Wild left me with such a

satisfied journey that I couldn't take my eyes off of it until I had finished,

many, many hours later.

Our last award before Game of the Year is for Best Art Direction.

There was a plethora of beautiful games this year, from hi-bit sensations to jaw dropping

masterpieces in both visuals and sound, but I think this Snoglobe has to go to Cuphead.

Despite my opinions on my how it handled difficulty some of the time, I still enjoyed it quite

a bit, and there's no doubt that Cuphead is absolutely gorgeous - I think this is what

drew most people in when it first came onto the scene.

I remember seeing it briefly during an Xbox E3 indie showcase and everyone saying, "Woah,

wait, go back!

What was that game that looked like 1930's cartoons?!"

It caught my eye to say the least, and now that it has come to fruition, I can definitely

say that it was a passion project that perfectly captures the style it's trying to emulate.

Not just in boss animation, but the overworld, the characters, and especially the music as

well.

What I didn't expect was that it brought all of the imperfections of the era with it,

like how Cuphead's clothes don't match on certain screens, or how the objects in

the foreground wiggle around and are much brighter than the hand-painted backgrounds,

making them stick out like a sore thumb.

Yet all of this is endearing, it's reminiscent of all the cartoons we grew up watching - gambling,

deals with the devil and cigar smoking are par for the course here.

But perhaps what is most impressive is the bar that this sets for art in games in the

future.

Not only is the loopy, unrealistic animations wonderful homage, but it's also clearly

well done and full of little details you probably won't even notice because you're focusing

on all the mayhem coming at you.

This combined with the challenge of each battle made sure you'll never forget the faces

of those that decimated you over and over.

And honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way...

Alright, the time has come - let's get to the Game of the Year award!

As I said earlier, it was painful trying to cut the list of awesome games that I've

played this year down to 5, but the nominees on this list not only were fantastic voyages

on their own, they also left a monumental impression on me that made me sit back in

awe of what I'd just played.

We probably won't have a year quite like 2017 in a long time to come, so let's celebrate

some of the best titles it had to offer.

Breath of the Wild - From the moment King Rhoam told me to go and...roam (oh wow, I

get it) Hyrule in an effort to figure out how to defeat Ganon, I was hooked and realized

this was going to be one crazy adventure.

The simple fact that you CAN go and confront Ganon from the very start is enough to make

this an unparalleled experience, and each decision I made felt like I was carving my

own path, and every other person's journey was going to look drastically different from

mine.

It felt rewarding to gain strength as I discovered shrines, uncovered hidden fairy fountains

and collected magical powers from guardians of legend.

And then, once I'd completed all the main dungeons, I didn't want it to end because

there was still so much to explore.

From shield surfing, to tower climbing, to the trials of Eventide Island, Breath of the

Wild is jam packed with the joy of an adventurer's heart.

A Hat In Time - Do you like pretty hats, booping noses and riding scooters?

I do...that's like my favorite things.

Then A Hat in Time is perfect for you.

I love that I can still remember every chapter of this game because each one is unique and

full of precious little momentos.

So yeah, it's cute, but it also controls really well and feels awesome to move around

the different worlds, which is very important for a 3D platformer to succeed today.

The base game is almost flawless, but what's even better is that free DLC is coming with

entirely new locations, and until then we have full mod support, so the community can

come up with some ridiculously wacky scenarios to place Hat Kid into.

I don't know if another game has made me so happy from start to finish like A Hat in

Time did.

Super Mario Odyssey - I think I purposefully kept expectations low for Mario Odyssey because

it had a lot to live up to.

I didn't think it could possibly be up to par with the likes of Mario 64 and Sunshine,

especially with his recent forays into more linear games.

But WOW YEAH I was totally wrong!

Odyssey is exactly what I wanted out of a new Mario game, big open worlds to explore,

tons and tons of collectibles to find, and somehow EVEN BETTER movement mechanics than

in previous installments.

Seriously, of all the take aways, the fact that Mario now controls better than 64 is

downright unbelievable, but here we are.

Though it didn't stop there!

We've now seen Mario in huge metropolises, taking over old & new enemies for tons of

variety, and beating up Bowser in the most anime way possible.

I love it so much.

Hollow Knight - Hollow Knight was my Hyper Light Drifter of this year.

What I mean by that is I originally tried it out, but quit after a few hours because

I got lost or didn't really understand it.

But luckily I gave it another shot later this year and as soon as I past where I had left

off, the game soared beyond my wildest expectations and became something remarkable.

I'm so glad I gave Hollow Knight a 2nd chance because now I understand what everyone had

been speaking so highly of.

It may have a slower start, but when you discover exactly how huge the world is and the potential

your character holds for combat and platforming, it turns into a quest unlike any other Metroidvania.

From the cryptic story to the variety of locations and enemies, to the novel bug-based art style,

Hollow Knight was intriguing, mesmerizing and weird, but in the best way possible.

Golf Story - I did not expect to love Golf Story as much as I did, but it must've hit

a hole-in-one in my heart to satisfy what I've been missing in my life because it

was so good you guys!

It made me remember loving the simplicity of games like Mario Golf, but also the silly

yet adorable storytelling of Stardew Valley, and combines them flawlessly.

Golf Story is a lot longer than I thought it was going to be, and it stays engaging

the entire time, which I mean, makes sense when you're going from hitting golf balls

into the eye sockets of skeletons to rap battling against elderly people.

While it does feel like you hardly ever play a round of golf, it does actually blend the

matches and other quests together quite well, and tells a charming tale of an optimistic

boy's rise to pro golfer, with a little bit of hijinks along the way.

And the game of the year is:

Super Mario Odyssey!

The hardest decision I had to make for this list was deciding between Mario or Zelda for

my game of the year.

They both were such fresh expeditions for their series that at the very least I think

we can all agree that Nintendo has had a sensational year - I don't want to hear anyone complain

about ol' Ninty for at least another 3.

But seriously, both Breath of the Wild and Odyssey are once-in-a-decade type games and

yet we got both of them 6 months apart.

I think it will come down to what type of game you enjoy more personally, and for myself,

that's platformers.

Mario has never looked better, and gave me exactly what I was yearning for, while also

taking our favorite plumber into new waters (much like what they did for Link as well).

Cappy changes the gameplay in so many different aspects, from captures to movement, but what

I didn't expect was how much the endgame content added to the experience.

Not only was it packed with loads of nostalgia, but also more than doubled the base package.

Not to mention that replayability and speedrunning felt great because of how fluidly Mario can

glide around stages thanks to his new abilities.

Sometimes I'll just boot the game up to simply jump around skyscrapers or find new

ways to climb mountains.

While there were so many adventures that took my breath away this year, I think Super Mario

Odyssey takes the cake for me because it was everything I was hoping Mario's newest outing

would look like in 2017.

So there you have it, that's my list of the best games of the year, but I would love

to hear from you!

What were your favorite titles of 2017, either for these categories I came up with, or some

of your own?

Tell me in the comments below and let's talk about it!

As we enter a new year I wanted to make sure you were aware that I stream

This is How Souls Choose Their Parents and Families

Years before my baby girl was born, I had a dream that I had a daughter.

She came to me and gave me a hug, told me I was her mother, and told me her name was

Evelyn.

That dream imprinted on my memory and my heart.

So much so that when I found out I was pregnant, I knew I was carrying a girl, and she had

already told me her name: Evelyn.

Meaning wished for child, which couldn�t be more true!

In order to evolve, our souls come to Earth more than once.

I know that as I�ve grown and changed and learned about soul contracts and reincarnation,

my thoughts and beliefs have gravitated to this notion.

For those of you who are on the fence about reincarnation, I invite to you to explore

the idea that a soul is born into a (different) body for many lifetimes.

It is my belief that once a soul has made the decision to have (another) earthly incarnation,

the first step is to decide on what kind of life they want.

This is contingent upon what lessons they wish to learn.

This involves being matched with a parent or set of parents.

This process really depends on the soul�s purpose and desire for specific lessons and

lifestyle.

For example, if two souls had been together before perhaps as a mother and daughter set,

then they might wish to relive that experience again or perhaps relive it in reverse, so

the daughter becomes the mother in the new lifetime.

Sometimes the soul wishes to incarnate in a particular part of the world, and the choice

will be less specific to the individual parent.

As diverse as people are, so are our souls and what we wish to create and experience

in our lifetime(s).

Once this connection to a potential parent is made, the soul then creates a connection

to that person and is present around their energy, waiting to be born at the right time.

When I do intuitive readings for clients, I often see the souls of their unborn children

waiting for them.

I can usually tell if the child is a boy or a girl, and may also get a sense of what they

are meant to experience together in this lifetime.

The book Spirit Babies: How to Communicate with the Child You�re Meant to Have is a

collection of stories from an intuitive gentleman who spent decades connecting parents with

their unborn children.

When I do a reading, I cannot guarantee I�ll pick up information about potential unborn

children, but more often than not, I do �see� them if they are with you and going to be

joining your family in the future.

Of course, parents also have significant influence as to which soul joins their family through

conception.

Our daily thoughts, desires and purposes create a beacon for souls who respond to these energies.

This is particularly true of the mother.

According to the Edgar Cayce readings, a woman�s daily activities and inner thoughts during

the gestation period create a field much like a magnet would, attracting souls to the field

of opportunity life as her child would offer.

As far as families with more than one child, souls also make soul contract/agreements with

potential siblings.

The energy field and desire of the mother and the souls wanting to incarnate combine

to make the decision as to who is born first.

I like to imagine my sisters and I floating in the Ether on the �Other Side� deciding

to go first, and I in my oldest child splendor and glory pushed through and said, �Me first,

of course!

� In the case of miscarriage, I�ve noticed that particular soul often comes in through

a later pregnancy if the opportunity is presented.

I�ve also seen one instance where the miscarried child from a woman went on to be born into

her best friend�s family.

I�ve done readings for folks who have shared a myriad of past lives with the same group

of souls � soul groups � all taking turns being siblings, parents and children.

One thing I�m certain after doing hundreds of readings is�we certainly do choose our

family members, the location we will incarnate, and the different life events that will take

place.

It is empowering and so very touching for me to know my family members and I chose each

other.

I feel especially honored that my daughter chose me.

What a gift she has given me in this lifetime.
