Dead Monster washes ashore

How weird is it that I’ve been playing Final Fantasy a lot, and all of a sudden when I reach the Phon Coast, a dead monster washes ashore in real life?

There has to be a name for that kind of thing… when something you were just talking about happens immediately thereafter…

Some great comments already on that page:

“I heard something similar washed up on Fire Island, but it was wearing a feather boa. The plot thickens.”

“Throw that thing on the spit. Jurassic pork.”

Hahahaha, if this were the 1950s we’d all be freaking the hell out. But now, we’re so disillusioned that we just make jokes about it.

On that note, the thing has a killer neck beard.

I believe the term is “nerdery + hey look, actual real world events”

is it possible that the photo or monster is fake from neck beard to face?

also, i played about 13 hours of twelve and only made it to somewhere in the desert after your done in your home town, so most of my 13 hours was spent just doing the monster hunts.

some day i will return. but first i am trying to beat the metal gear series. i started with 1 a few weeks ago and now im already a decent amount into 2.

I’m like 64 hours in, and I just completed another Mark Hunt that seriously wasn’t challenging. My tank is just so great. I think I only had to heal her from afar twice, and the Beast was a pretty mean one.

Last night I just ran around a new area so that I could get a lay of the land, plus map information. I have a feeling the part I’m coming up on is well above my characters… I mean, they actually almost die every once in a while now, even with a pretty dedicated healer. I hate not being invincible anymore.

Hutch: I’ve almost maxed out everyone’s license boards, at least the top half… not so much with the equipment/weapons portion. Slaughtering animals is profitable.

Just for that mark… I used Balthier and Fran as ranged damage-inflicters while Penelo danced around his attacks.

I don’t care what anyone says – it’s an eagle-dog that Jesus put there to prove to all of us that the earth is flat.
