Whew. Looks like the feds didn’t find the colony of buzzy buddies I’ve been nurturing in the suburbs.
Can’t wait for spring!
- Comment on I'm pretty sure all of us have given up on any boomer giving us anything anyway 12 hours ago:
Somehow, I grew up in the one neighborhood in the city that hasn’t had a spike in value in the last couple of decades. My mom refuses to move out to a retirement community (at this point she would need assisted living). She likes to talk about improving the property and what color she should paint the upstairs. Watches flipper shows all day.
I don’t have the heart to tell her that I have no interest in inheriting the property and that it will be a huge burden to liquidate all of the ‘antiques’ she has gathered over the last 80 years that now stink of cat piss and many colors of mold.
She’s always been there for me in my darkest hours, though, and so has that shit mid century ranch.
I’ll still let her win at Wheel of Fortune, as long as she can remember my name.

I went for a whole month drying my hands with only independent research and the results were similar to using paper towels.

I can’t think of any examples of the top of my head, but aren’t there some games that should have thrived but we’re heals back by launching as Epic exclusives?

- Comment on Good to see AAFES looking out for my health 2 weeks ago:
I miss the clutches of people that would congregate in smoking areas on breaks at work, kinda forced to socialize but all walks of life would be tied together by their shared vice.
Now the smoking area at work has dwindled so I feel like a pariah sucking on my electric nicotine pacifier for a couple minutes, staring at my phone and ignoring the other pariahs that come outside.
Hell, I think I met the larger part of my 2000s friend group striking up conversations outside of bars when you could no longer smoke inside.
Sorry I’m romanticizing am unhealthy dirty habit, but I do think that we, in the US at least, have vilified one more means of social connection.

There is a video I will not point you to, because a hundred vegans probably have already, that show how sad and disgusting factory farming in the US is. I wouldn’t drink anything that came out of one of those depressing animal factories unless it had been processed to hell and back.
There are better options on the market, but the average American is going to pay a buck or two less for a gallon from the milk factory. Same thing with eggs, meat.
Conscious food choices are a luxury, here.
- Comment on ugh i wish 3 weeks ago:
People like my boomer mother will buy a gallon of milk and expect it to be good for 2+weeks.
She is part of the reason I do a small shopping every couple days and only but what I need for the foreseeable future. An entire generation of Americans that are used to everything being so pumped with preservatives that we can eat a Twinkie that rolled under the couch last presidential election.
Yet, we have to scrub eggs of their natural coating at the farm, requiring them to be refrigerated.
Food regulation in the US hasn’t moved very far from the 60s.

Another point that conspiracy bros will bring up is that fluoride is a toxic byproduct of aluminum manufacture and dumping it into the water supply is a cheap way for Alcoa to dispose of it benevolently.
- Comment on Why do the majority of women still take their partner's last name? 4 weeks ago:
I can’t say for sure why. When I got married she just wanted to take one of my names (I have two last names). I’m not famous or anything, so it doesn’t carry any clout. Maybe she wanted a fancy sounding hyphenated name too, because she added one of mine to her current one.

Late 90s Chicago, I don’t recall this happening much, but I did have a social studies teacher in 7th grade that let kids take their lunch period in her classroom and the AV cart would usually be tuned in to the Maury Provich show.

I watched a VHS dupe my father had made of this so many times. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the proper cover art of it.

Taxi Driver resonates much more powerfully when you or someone close to you has suffered from delusions.
To the perfectly sane mind Travis is being insane without reason, and in a boring way.
I imagine the high score TD had gathered over the years is because there are many people that sympathize with Travis, and maybe see him as an anti hero.

Was a junior/senior in high school when that came out. Me and my dudes definitely wanted to be that guy that never graduated and lived on school grounds forever, without realizing how pathetic that life would be .

We are probably a decade apart, but sucker punch made me walk away. All of the anime CGI faces and action scenes just had me bored. Maybe I wasted all of my Suspension Of Disbelief on pulp sci Fi novels back in the 90s.

Now I will fall asleep thinking of a crack head rat dry humping a hippo. Truly the Real Garbage Pail Kids gross out movie, but it was too grown up for children and to basic for grown ups.
