The Residents

The greatest band no one has ever heard.
Four consistent decades of high rated albums and short films really speaks for itself.
Seriously, go listen to The Residents.
Sure, their albums are harder to find than Jimmy Hoffa's first lay, but that's no excuse!

Resilience

Resilience is that word used in many magazines, it means never giving up or not breaking down.
And example of this word could be people in Paradise, California.

Resident Whale

Extremely obese person that happens to be in a position of slight authority and is generally irritating as shit because they feel the need to constantly remind you of their miniscule amount of power. The Resident Whale usually wears loose, unflattering clothing paired with black Velcro sneakers and has made zero attempt to be stylish in any way. May smell. Always has snacks on hand. Derives pleasure from wasting other people's time.
Bert: Hey what took you so long to get groceries?

Earl: The Resident Whale at the store stopped me as I was leaving. Told me she was "loss prevention". She went down my entire receipt taking out every item I had in my cart to make sure I wasn't stealing anything. That was an hour of my life I'll never get back from that whale.

Bert: What about my oreos?

Earl: She needed a snack while she was fucking me over.

Bert: I'll get the harpoons.

faux resident

when a tourist poses as a resident of the country they're visiting, because they don't like people to know they're tourist or just because they're pretentious.

They tend to act casual, don't ask for directions and try not to be seen with maps, guides, cameras, gift shop bags or any other item that can reveal they're on vacation.
"Every time I go to New York, I become a faux resident. I hate when people know I'm a tourist."

Hey Kim, I think that guy is trying to glance at his city guide without getting caught. He's definitely a faux resident.

resident evil 4

The best resident evil game ever. Your weapons have lasers for u to aim and blow guys' heads off. The AI is smarter than some slow dumass zombie. There are also tight unlockable weapon as well as 2 minigames after beating the game. Takes about 20 hours to beat and has great replay value. It is worth the money.
Resident evil 4 has no zombies this doesn't look scary...ahh shit a chainsaw whore just chopped my head off. DAYUM!

Resident Evil 2

A game released by Capcom in 1998. The sequel to the first resident evil game and considered by many to be the high point of the series. You play as Leon Kennedy, a rookie police officer. He drives into Racoon city(where the game is set) for his first day on the job and finds the city infested with zombies, and all other officers dead.

Resident Evil

A great PSone game which is still great to play today. Involves a special unit called the S.T.A.R.S. team being sent to the Racoon forests to investigate what happened to a Bravo team who were investigating a series of bizarre murders (done by zombies). They find a downed helicopter with all the equipment inside, but none of the members. When they search for clues, a certain individual named Joseph Frost finds A SEVERED HAND(!). He then gets chewed to bits by a pretty nasty dog. They then all run for a scary looking mansion (bad move) and hide inside it.

What follows is a 10 year old game (at time of print) still going pretty damn strong. Even though the notoriously bad dialogue is even worse today, and even though some of it isn't as scary, some parts are still very, very creepy. The music in the hall still sends shivers down my spine. And when you discover the first zombie? A classic sequence.

Graphically, Resident Evil is relatively still extremely good. Considerung this game is 10 YEARS OLD, it looks pretty fine.

If you do see an old copy of Resi going for cheap, do not hesitate to pick it up. It is a genuinely brilliant game. It may have lost a lot of the sparkle it had in 1996, it's still has the elements which made it so great in the first place. Even though this game has had several sequels, to my mind, the original PSone game is the best. The claustrophobic, trapped feel of the mansion hasn't really been done again in the whole seires since, as it moved on to bigger, more epic locations.

A great game.
'You go check for clues, Jill. I'll be here examining this (a pool of blood)'

'Barry, thank you for saving my life.'

Classic.
