If you’re not shitting then you need to see a doctor, friend.
Otherwise, if it’s not your jam there’s nothing wrong with sitting it out. In fact I don’t recommend drinking as heavily as I have or take as many fun drugs as I used to (I can still do them but I choose to heavily limit myself) because there are long term consequences.
- Comment on It's bad man 13 hours ago:
For me it’s the knees. I can still shit and bang and drink and do all the same fun drugs I did at 25. But I miss my cartilage.
- Comment on 7 for me 1 day ago:
I wear boots and hold a bottle of whisky. I don’t know why they wouldn’t include that on the list.
- Comment on What was she thinking when she did this? 6 days ago:
How dare anyone enjoy anything that I wouldn’t or couldn’t do myself!

There’s 7 of them. Maybe she should have swallowed a few.

By the time they’re finished either there will be no more radiation or we’ll be living in that world.
- Comment on Ye song glorifying Hitler gets millions of views on X while other platforms struggle to remove it 1 week ago:
What in the actual fuck? I went and looked up the lyrics. I went and looked at some of the things people were saying on xcancel. I haven’t looked at the service formerly known as Twitter in years.
So I repeat, what in the actual fuck? The very loud unveiled racism, the calling a black preacher “more like rabbi” for calling out hate, the glorifying Nazis by saying they drug Germany and the world into the modern age…like not dog whistles. Out and out fucking craziness.
I mean, I knew these people existed. I know some in real life. I grew up near a whole town built on white supremacy and dated a woman whose incarcerated brother was in the Aryan Brotherhood (she cut off contact but her mom gave out her address…I got to read the letters from him and they were disturbing). Hell, a MUD I played had a front end called Stormfront so I ended up in a very bad Internet forum looking for info and even it was tame comparatively. I’ve never seen so many gathered in one place using such uncoded and terrible language.
Jesus tapdancing Christ. It’s a different thing knowing something this horrible exists and seeing this bullshit go down.
- Comment on How can you tell 23 subgenres of equally shitty growls and screams apart, but not see the most Metal basics? 1 week ago:
Like Violent Femmes. It’s punk played on acoustic instruments.

Some of us live in BJ deserts where you can’t get good, quality BJs from home.

That’s not really extra. It’s like food. Absolute necessity.
- Comment on I don't know who The Rizzler is and Im not interested. 2 weeks ago:
It’s appt plus. I have no idea how any of their stuff is because it’s the only service I haven’t tried. But I’ve heard good things about their sci fi offerings.
- Comment on I don't know who The Rizzler is and Im not interested. 2 weeks ago:
It was phat. Raise the roof. You’re bodacious.
Otherwise, gag me with a spoon because I’m grody.
- Comment on I don't know who The Rizzler is and Im not interested. 2 weeks ago:
But you’re not jamming with the console cowboys there, as much as I wish that happened.
On an entirely related note, theoretically there will be a Neuromancer TV show next year.
- Comment on I don't know who The Rizzler is and Im not interested. 2 weeks ago:
We definitely had ridiculous slang in the 89s and 90s, but the truth is I always felt like the media over-played it trying to sound cool. And when we’d over-play it amongst ourselves it was as a way to laugh at adults.
Can you jam with the console cowboys in cyberspace? Cowabunga. Some of my favorite stuff had excessive references to skateboarding, roller blading, or other Xtreme sports (Hackers, anyone?) and that’s coming from a guy who used to be a part of that scene.
Maybe I’m wrong. If I am that wouldn’t be fetch.
- Comment on bruh 2 weeks ago:
Not op, but the only place I go anymore is bars. I can’t find a nice place to change my baby at 1am after killing an entire bottle of Old Grandad.

Some folks call it a Sling Blade, I call it a Kaiser Blade.
- Comment on Has anyone told MAGA they are free to shut themselves off from the rest of the world all on their own. Honestly they do a pretty good job of it already. 4 weeks ago:
Get in the truck, we’re headed out. I guess you can bring the fam but they might have to sit in the bed because I’m not putting my electronics back there.
- Comment on What else are they hiding from us? 4 weeks ago:
You’ve got to route it through the deflector dish.
- Comment on women are the devil 4 weeks ago:
Someone watched too much GI Joe. Cobra had their branding everywhere.
- Comment on Cox charges you $25 if your credit card is declined 4 weeks ago:
That’s fucking wild. I have two cards that are occasionally declined because they want to make sure I’m making the transaction. I can afford it but I’d be pissed paying a fee because my credit card company suspected I might not be the one wanting to upgrade to a second phone or whatever.

Kaos was great. I was surprised.
- Comment on nature is beautiful 2 months ago:
Yeah, when I first started growing peppers I did this and nearly killed a bunch of plants because I used too much.
It only takes a tiny bit and works wonders.

Same in the 00s. Everyone knew and no one gave a shit.
Side note: I love how “fuckin business” works a couple of ways.
- Comment on Pete Hegseth Fires Adm. Lisa Franchetti, Navy’s Top Officer 2 months ago:
We were in the same carrier group a lifetime ago. I didn’t know her well but she was pretty cool to the NCOs. This is fucking sad.
- Comment on Anon shares his taste in music 2 months ago:
Same. Plus I rarely clarified. Back in the day if someone zinged me anyway I’d generally make a joke about their mom or intelligence using the most hurtful language I could. I do not recommend the last part.
I don’t really do it anymore because I’m a middle aged dude who can’t give a shit about anyone else’s opinion. But I remember what it was like being a teenager who was weird even by teenager standards at a time when being different was not celebrated. I recommend against doing everything I did to protect myself but euphemisms for my hobbies are one I can absolutely recommend.
- Comment on Anon shares his taste in music 2 months ago:
A lot of games have great music. Instead of calling it video game music, which absolutely invites people to say stupid shit, just say you generally listen to atmospheric soundtracks.
Growing up in small town east Texas taught me to create euphemisms for all kinds of fun shit.
- Comment on my version is better 2 months ago:
It’s not like the old days, but you can still find high energy local acts out at places like BFE. Just keep an eye on their roster. I’ll likely see you there someday!
