*emerges from hole* Ugh, winter is the worst...
Hm? No, he hasn't put out a new Irate Gamer video. I think he quit again. Nothing in four months.
Puppet Steve has been the same shit. Algorithm chasing with Squid Game (again, not suitable for kids), along with Roblox and Sonic. Meh...
Instead, I'll bring up something that was shown to me last week. Chris has a new book!
No, it's not the long awaited sequel to Ghost Hunting 2.0 (would that make it Ghost Hunting 3.0?)
Instead it's a photo book about the Sandusky Ohio mall. ... Huh.
I mean, it's pretty harmless. Just pictures of an old mall from Chris' home city. The reviews on Amazon seem to like it. Though I have to wonder where they came from as Chris hasn't promoted the book on any of his main social feeds (according to my informant at least). Maybe he has a private account?
The Amazon page says it was published November 2021, so somehow he managed to avoid promoting it.
Otherwise, there isn't much to say without reading it, and no way in hell am I going to pay $21 to get it.
However, Chris just can't help himself in the description.
The first paragraph is just Bores waxing nostalgic about various shops in the mall.
The second though, this one is a doozy.
Gathering more than 200 images, the original floor map, and the
history of every store at every location, author Chris Bores delivers a
trip down memory lane as well as never-before-told stories of the
scandals and struggles--and the triumphs--that made the Sandusky Mall
the place to be.
Scandals?! What scandals?
I actually tried searching "Sandusky Mall scandals", and all I got was articles about Jerry Sandusky (the Penn State football coach that sexually assaulted a multitude of young boys throughout the 90's and 00's), and... links directly to Chris' book.
So either these aren't really scandals, or Chris' idea of a scandal is really minute and pointless. Then again, you could have figured that out when he called Super Mario Bros 2 a "scandal".
But hey, I'm sure this book appeals to the 75k people that live in Erie County. Maybe the people in the surrounding ones too.
... Yep. That's about it.
