Had to have been 35 years ago. I vaguelly remember what he looked like and what park it was. We banded together and recruited a bunch of other kids to play hide and go seek tag.
Shout out to you homie, wherever you are.

John Daly
Because while I don’t think he has the best mullet specifically, he’s combining his mullet with a bowl cut and that’s savage.
Joe Dirt was eliminated cuz it isn’t a real mullet. Mel Gibson was eliminated cuz he doesn’t look redneck enough. And the rest just didn’t have the balls to do the bowl cut.
Hats off to you John Daly for your committment.
- Comment on Do people really give a shit on what a US President wear? I just see from time to time that they bring up the Tan Suit Incident with Obama. What is or was the big deal? I slept since then. 1 week ago:
American “conservatives” don’t have any actual policies/plans. So they have to complain about things that don’t matter so intensely that they trick themselves and others into thinking they matter so they have something to work with.
Yes, it’s pathetic. Yes, everyone with a functional brain knows it’s pathetic. Problem is, there are so many of these low IQ “conservatives” that we can’t just ignore them and focus on things that do matter because we have to keep paying attention to these idiot bulls in the china shop and focus all our energy on protecting as much of the china as possible.

You probably have ADHD.
The difference between reading posts on the internet and AI slop compared to a book is the book requires you to pay attention longer to digest the story arc.
As someone that’s been making their way through a book at all times since I could learn to read, it’s worth it. Books have more impact than random internet blurbs. But you have to find stories that you like and you have to reprogram your brain from being hooked on quick internet endorphin hits.

I was a nerd in high school with no friends and all I wanted as midnight approached was for Y2K to not interrupt my Team Fortress Classic match.
It didn’t. And I laid waste to my digital foes.
- Comment on If Osama Bin Laden was given the option: commit terror acts against the US; or install trump as president. With full knowledge of the results of multiple trump presidencys which would he chose? 1 week ago:
If his goal is to kill as many Americans as possible, then he’s gonna go with Trump.
3,000 dead on 9/11 is nothing compared to Trump’s tally already due to war in Iran and trash policies that eliminate safety nets. Not to mention completely and utterly fucking up a pandemic response.

- Comment on California voters 1 week ago:
I can’t believe so many people voted for the billionaire.
A lot of people, including myself, waited to the last minute to vote and realized Becerra was locked in and it was actually smart to vote for Steyer to try to lock out the traitor Republican so we’d have two Dems in November instead of a Dem vs a traitor.
I had to stop calling them conservatives since they don’t conserve anything, so I’m going with traitors instead.

Tried it on a free weekend just last year and it was awful. UI was awful. Performance was bad. Ran into various bugs. Clipping through floors. Every single thing, and I mean everything, is tedious to the point of comedy. No guidance whatsoever for how to do anything. Had to endlessly hop between the game and a browser to figure out how to do anything at all.
For the numbers of years (decades?) it’s been in development, the thing was a joke.
The scope was impressive and everything looked really pretty. But I couldn’t find a way to actually enjoy any of it.

Literally nothing is permanent. From the smallest to the largest. The most notable figures in human history will be forgotten one day. The planet I’m typing this on won’t exist one day.
- Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 2 weeks ago:
I keep hearing about the combat “clicking”. I played 1 and am mostly done with 2 and it’s still never “clicked”. I think the combat is awful and severely degrades the quality of the game and I’m kind of shocked they didn’t put more work into making it more accessible to more players, especially in the second game after all the players complaining about it in the first.
I’ve done the same thing with 2 that I did with 1. Mod the everloving shit out of it until I got it to a state that I could actually enjoy it. Without the mods, other than the combat, I find the game extremely tedious in various other survival/crafting/stealth ways.
But the world is so unbelievably well made and realistic that I’m willing to do all this extra work just to play it and experience the locations, characters, and story. It’s probably the most immersive gaming experience I’ve ever had outside of VR. Why the hell doesn’t it have VR?

I had a lot more fun with Starfield once I stopped forcing myself to try to explore all planets. Once I realized they were all copy/paste with the same copy/paste bases I just started ignoring them. Game was more than long enough without them anyway.
- Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t want to go back into the depths of time to try to remember an obscure game I played decades ago. So I’ll do a recent one that people didn’t necessarily hate, but didn’t like as much as it’s predecessor and were pretty open about it.
Doom: The Dark Ages
I ended up liking it more than Eternal. It wasn’t as fast paced, even though it was still fast, but you could FEEL the combat more in Dark Ages. The devs made the movement and hits FEEL more substantial. I was skeptical about the shield, but ended up loving it. Chaining together the shield attack, melee attack, and gunplay felt great. I liked the levels more than Eternal too. And they added a lot of lore to deepen the Doom universe. Main story was whatever, but that’s typical for the Doom franchise.

$950 handheld gaming device that I’d only ever use on a plane or long ass road trip in which I’m not driving.
Or, play games on my phone.
OR, gasps read a goddamn book.
- Comment on GOAT 2 weeks ago:
It’s wild that, among other things, the sitting president of the United States fucked children.
This is conservative reality. If that isn’t enough to get you to the polls to vote in whatever manner is most likely to end that reality, then you don’t deserve to live in a democracy.
- Comment on What does everyone think of the economic outlook for the next year? 3 weeks ago:
and a slow grinding recovery.
Which will most likely happen during the next Dem presidency. But not fast enough so everyone will lose faith again and gamble with another Republican felon (maybe rapist too) and rinse and repeat.
As soon as we squeeze out of the clown car we pile right back in.

Just here to point out that it’s not normal for a military response to some rando calling in a hit on someone’s house.
A normal response is a check by a single police car with two officers. One to knock on the door and ask questions. The other to remain with the vehicle to call in any issues.
This is a police state.
