The fact that different games have different terminology is of course something completely obvious, and often it can be downright difficult to keep up when people in the know are talking about the game they are currently most into. There are plenty of actual game terms and of course also Swedishizations.

During this weekend's Borderlands 4 game, a group of good friends and I laughed as I walked around cursing over my bulky packing that meant I couldn't pick up all the loot I walked past. I also want things, just to be able to sell if nothing else. A gentleman we usually play with suddenly asked if I had "loot anxiety"... And I did. I understood exactly what he meant.

Since I think this with languages is very nice, I was curious to hear what your favorite terms are when you play whatever it is you play in the company of happy friends? Is it perhaps W-rushes, construction spins, enpuffs, ganka, smurfs or something completely different? The more personal and incomprehensible - the better.

You can get loot anxiety for less...

Of course, there are all kinds of gadgets for the kitchen, from hand blenders to air fryers and egg cookers. Most are completely unnecessary for most people - but then there are also the things you can't do without.

For my own part, I mourned when our rice cooker for two decades recently collapsed, but thought nothing more about it. Now we boil manually, my partner and I reasoned. It lasted about a week. To get absolutely perfect rice without effort that is also kept warm so you don't have to try to time the other food, turned out to be worth more than I thought.

Despite the fact that there are plenty of food influencers who are trying to make rice cooking a bigger art form than it actually is, it is basically impossible to do more better results than what a simple rice cooker for 500-1000 SEK is capable of, And now a new one has been ordered. It had to be the successor to the Tefal we had before (NB, no advertising, there are probably 100 better models, do your own research), this also lasts 20 years so it must be considered good value.

So... That said, what single kitchen gadget (in addition to the standard stuff) would you not have been able to do without?

There are always complaints about the single-player campaigns with every new Call of Duty (extremely few exceptions in the last 15 years) and Battlefield (with the exception of Bad Company). For good reason. They are not up to scratch.

Treyarch had a fun thing going on with Black Ops, but it got way too dizzy and fuzzy after a couple of games, and today feels like wandering time travel without a lot of well-written putty that holds everything together nicely without flaws. And I can't help but think that this is a great shame.

Of course, I understand why. It's hard to sell microtransactions for a single-player game, and when you're done with it, you're done with it. The result is that they only dutifully develop the campaigns, which are a few hours long and, as I said, not very well done. People want them even though they are mediocre. It kind of belongs.

Activision and EA have a job to do here. The graphics engines are there and are absolutely top class. Instead of promptly releasing these almost puerila action adventures, let a separate team make a real game. Activision should bring in someone who can really tell a military story (why not Kathryn Bigelow?) and create a 20-hour campaign with a really good story that keeps us spellbound, where we don't have to be thrown on with massive set pieces just to get everything done in the course of a few measly hours.

EA and its side have a somewhat simpler mission, namely they only need to revive Bad Company. Come up with a rich story and let the boys go on an adventure again. Fuck the multiplayer.

Then you can advantageously let the same squad play the lead role in two smaller expansions of five hours each (still more than Call of Duty and Battlefield usually offer) in order to sell season passes. I am absolutely convinced that there is a market for this. Even oft-criticized games like Halo 4 and Halo 5: Guardians have each sold over ten million copies. People want military campaigns - and lavish ones are a wide-open market that no one right now seems to want to take in with pliers.

If there had been a well-written and lavish military thriller campaign, completely without multiplayer - would you have been interested?

Almost a year ago I wrote a blog about I would like to have the dinosaurs rebooted in Jurassic Park. Like scrapping the whole story and starting over. And go more on the latest scientific findings that show that many of the giant creatures were covered in feather-like skin.

Several of you were anti the idea, which would challenge the fantasy many have of what a dinosaur looked like, but the fact is that it would be at least as scary, if not more scary - and also feel fresh because it won't just be the same old horror lizards we've seen so many times sooner.

After looking at Scarlet's escapades in Jurassic World Rebirth, I also have one more wish... stop believing in the idea that it will be scarier because you have mutated dinosaurs. It just gets dumber and sillier, i.e. some kind of opposite of scary. It wasn't because the T-Rex or the velociraptors (yes, I know they're partly figments of the imagination here) that the original was so exciting, it was because we believed in what was happening.

If you lose it, you lose everything. Less is more. Check out Spielberg's classic Jaws. A great white shark can be scary enough under the right circumstances and Hollywood just messes it up for itself. If you have something so wonderful, it just can't be as bad as the Jurassic series has been after Jurassic Park 2.

The Jurassic series is not likely to rest, but Hollywood really needs to understand that it is not bigger and more spectacular lizards that the brand needs.

For those who want to cook good food, it has never been easier to find inspiration and good recipes with step-by-step instructions. Youtube is absolutely teeming with hobby chefs and I often let myself be inspired and try something new based on the selection, where Joshua Weissman, Nicole Nelson McLaughlin and Sip & Feast are among the favorites.

But... Even though I think Markus Aujalay may have lost a little inspiration at the end and seems to have a hard time coming up with new dishes, he remains superb at guiding through dishes and explaining why he does things a certain way. Perhaps my biggest favorite lately, however, is Filip Poon, the former contestant from Sweden's Master Chef.

He has recently gone more and more in an Asian focus, and is very good at delivering fun recipes that often need botanizing in Asian stores. And... On Sunday, my partner and I cooked his latest dish, namely Fried Bao Buns - which is the absolute best I've cooked from any TV chef.

It's a dish that takes some time and includes things like Chinkiang/Zhenjiang, Lao Gan Ma, Five Spices, Sichuan pepper and Hoisin - which maybe not everyone has at home. However, it is not overly difficult to get hold of (if it is in a store in Östersund, it is available at your place) and I cannot recommend enough that you give it a chance.

It's really Chinese home cooking at its best. Real comfort food and I could have eaten as many dumplings as I wanted, as well as drink the dipping sauce with a straw. In short, many thanks Poon for this gem that will henceforth be cooked at least a couple of times a year - and definitely try to make it yourself. Absolutely incomparably good.

Doesn't look much from the world, but is the best I've ever tasted from any TV chef.
