Bathroom? I'm pissing in the kitchen sink. Saves a trip upstairs.

how gigantic are your window frames where you can safely sit an airconditioner without additional support

I think a better question would be how big of an air conditioner are you trying to put in a window? Most units built for a single smaller room, like a bedroom, weigh 40-80 pounds. Most standard size windows can support that with ease.

Close the window so it catches the top lip of the ac, then slide out the plastic sides. My parents do that with two of their windows and I've done it at three other places I've lived. Now I do remember being a kid and having to help my dad install some behemoth of an ac on some support beam outside of the kitchen window every summer. Thing was probably near 200 pounds

A little but mostly the ferrets.

That'll do it. I've always heard they stink.

I opened my door and have the fan in the doorway blowing family room air in now.

Does that blow the smell of the family into your room?

I wasnt even aware there was a 3rd season. Oh wow gotta check it out. Originally it had gotten cancelled just when something interesting was happening to dale.

Make sure you watch Fire Walk With Me first.

Not quite: The original plan was that real Coop would switch places with Evil Coop, who would get dragged back into the Lodge. Evil Coop attempted to circumvent this by creating a tulpa (Dougie), and having the Arm's Doppleganger interfere with the original switch, which was supposed to happen when Evil Coop got sick driving on the highway. Instead real Coop got sent flying through space/the glass box/the power outlet and ended up switching places with Dougie.

Also doppelgangers and tulpas are not the same thing. Tulpas are created/manufactured copies of people, doppelgangers are naturally existing shadow versions of the self which occupy the Black Lodge.

Ah thanks for the memory refresh. Man I need to rewatch S3 soon.

Need to remove flyscreen. Need to put something back where the flyscreen was except the air conditioner now blocks it
need something for the air conditioner to sit on
shit is hard work if youre not a handyman

Sorry let me update my instructions.

Kick flyscreen to detach from window, sit AC on window frame, close window on top of AC.
Tools required: Hands, feet

SalsOwnAccount posted...

And I dont know how to use tools to install it.

Put AC in window, close window on top of AC.
Tools required: Hands

Thanks for the reminder.

Yeah that's the thing that sucks about office work. At the last job I had like that, my second monitor was tilted so no one who walked up could see it. I used that monitor to youtube, gfaqs, etc while my first monitor had work on it. Thankfully, my current job doesn't care as long as we get our work done.

The Black Lodge is a Labyrinth.

S3 shows this.

Also different planes of existence happening at once or going into the other in the real world.

Yup just like the Dutchman's Lodge or the motel where they are keeping tea kettle Jeffries.

TC will really be confused at the end regarding the pocket dimension with Carrie and Judy.

Im conflicted on season 3 so far. On one hand, Lynchs direction is mesmerizing and the deadpan humor is great.

On the other hand, I have no idea what the fuck is happening. Did Coops mind finally break from seeing all this weird shit?

Yeah S3 is very different. If you're sitting there every episode waiting for Twin Peaks to be like the first two seasons, you'll be disappointed. The town of Twin Peaks is just one of the locations in this season but never the main location.

Sorta. He has been stuck in that other dimension for 20 years after all. Also like the other person said, both evil Coop and Dougie are tulpas/doppelgangers. Dougie was just an imperfect one that iirc was created by the arm as a vessel for the real Coop to come back to the real world.

Happy birthday! What are you and Corn doing to celebrate?

Everyone fucked off to Discord.

I'm gonna have to drink by myself now.

Once Smackems is back on gfaqs, everyone will migrate back. This is why the discord server is a great backup space for us.

i've successful kept my drinking to weekends only for 2 weeks now. Can't lie I was craving that first beer getting home

Johnny_Nutcase posted...

I haven't mastered it yet but im gettin better about not drinking during the week. Thursdays don't count because im off on Fridays.

What made you guys decide to ease up on the drinking? Soon enough the drinking general will only have sober people...and a-c-a-b. Lol

Job gave us today off so we have a four day weekend. Had four pto days to burn before the end of the fiscal year so I took them this week. Worked out perfectly. Just been drinking and chilling all week.

au_gold posted...

Season 3 is off to a great start. That sequence where that thing appears in the box and then tears their faces apart was creepy as fuck.

Waiting to see what you think of episode 8. It's the weirdest episode in the entire show.

Also keep an eye out for cameos of famous musicians at the end of each episode playing in fictional bands.

MrToothHasYou posted...

I would say the entire Phillip Jeffries plot from FWWM was pretty central to The Return, having introduced the Convenience Store, the Woodsmen, and Phillip himself.

Yeah the convenience store and the woodmen are a big part of the story.

au_gold posted...

I liked Fire Walk with Me a lot. It was more outright disturbing than anything on the show I think. It also seems like something Id appreciate more with repeated viewings.

It was originally suppose to be two movies but the studios only let Lynch do one. That's why the Missing Pieces exist.

MrToothHasYou posted...

Fire Walk With Me next, then if you want to The Missing Pieces, then The Return/Season 3

This. The Missing Pieces are deleted scenes from the movie. While they aren't some story revelation, they help piece some stuff together. I wouldn't consider them essential.

Love it. It's the only type of food other than Thai that can match the spice level I like.

Alright. Yesterday was two full weeks without alcohol. Not sure if I feel that much different. Maybe slightly more motivation to get stuff done and not put them off. Less brain fog but that could also be the supplements my wife bought me for that. Hard to say.

@MabusIncarnate do you feel any different since quitting and how long before you felt the difference?

Anyway. I'm off this entire week and decided to casually drink throughout it. Probably look to continue drinking but ease up on it a lot. If I can't manage to do that, I might just quit altogether.

I saw the first 4 episodes or so, and I just can't see this getting all that weird. Been about as straightforward as possible so far. Its still engaging though.

It starts off as a soap opera parody and quickly goes into the supernatural.

CanuckCowboy posted...

3 was eh.

I liked it more than the previous sequel but it in no way lived up to the greatness of 2.

What made 3 worse than 2? From what I could tell, all of the Borderlands games look kinda the same.

Johnny_Nutcase posted...

That's about what I got out of it. I'd rather play Minecraft.

There's a lot of games that I just want to play for a bit and get a feel for. I check out the free games on the Epic Game Store every week for that purpose. This is why game rental places still need to exist.

Played the first one way back when. I liked it but I know I was missing out on a lot playing it alone.
Saw the B3 news and downloaded it yesterday. Next week is rumored to be No Man's Sky which would be really cool. I've been wanting to put an hour into that game and never play it again for ages.

I'm still waiting on PowerWash Simulator to go on sale. $20 is a bit much for a joke simulator game.

My dad by 2 weeks.

Their newest one, Doom Crew is right up there with BHR and Mafia.

@DirkDiggles Listening through it now and it's a real solid album. Couple meh songs but the rest are great. Zakk's pinch harmonics are toned down but still present which is refreshing. Thanks for the rec.

Giant_Aspirin posted...

i think most people dislike the taste of alcohol when they first try it. but since it 'feels good man', people learn to associate the taste with that good feeling and eventually come to enjoy it.

This. You're mouth will get used to the alcohol burn soon enough and no longer burn. Similar to people that eat spicy stuff. The more you try it, the less it'll burn. After that, you'll just taste the other flavors. I didn't start drinking until I was ~22 and wanted to see what all the fuss as about. Started off with goldschlager cause the alcohol burn was hidden under the cinnamon burn. lol

Not that I'm trying to convince TC to keep drinking. Just making them aware that their one sip of a random drink should carry zero weight in there opinion on alcohol.

au_gold posted...

That makes a lot of sense actually. Youd think theyd save the reveal for the end of the season then.

Yeah I feel like knowing that bit of info helps give it a pass.

Eh. He was probably so pissed that he wrote a couple episodes to quickly make the reveal make sense then gtfo. Then the studio convinced him to return for the last couple episodes.

If you want to see Lynch fully unchained, just wait for The Return\S3. Watch the movie first though.

au_gold posted...

Apparently David Lynch directed the finale, so Im going to power through. His episodes are usually my favorites.

Also, Im really curious how bad it gets.

Good on you man. While some of the story threads are a mess in the later half of that season there are some interesting ideas.

Also just in case you haven't already heard, Lynch never intended for the murderer to be revealed. The studio forced him to reveal it. Then he got pissed and quit. That's the reason behind the drop in quality after it's revealed. Then just as they were getting their footing back near the end of the season, the show was cancelled for low ratings. Gee...I wonder why? Lol

DirkDiggles posted...

Their newest one, Doom Crew is right up there with BHR and Mafia.

Hmm. That's good to know. I'll probably give it listen tomorrow.

Blessed Hellride is great album from beginning to end. Mafia had some good tunes but a step down from BH. I haven't given much of their stuff a listen outside of those two albums. Need to dig deeper.

There's workarounds for that. I used to buy HP refurb carts sold by a third party for 1/3rd of the normal price at my first IT position back in 2010.

The guy in the black jacket is Dennis Leary I'm pretty sure. That's a crazy talented cast for some wacky ass MTV shit. This must have been early in all their careers.

Oh well the black jacket makes sense then. I just couldn't make out the face cause of the video quality and he didn't speak much.

Noumas posted...

Is that Janeane Garofalo?

Yup. Also Jon Stewart and Chris Kattan. Not sure who the guy in the black jacket is.

Isn't ebamsworld a porn site or what am I thinking of?

It's a gag/flash game/image/video site that was really popular back in the early '00. Some of the flash games were porn based.

I played the first world. Despite the jump from 2D to 3D, it just felt like more of the same.

That said I've been on a Kirby binge lately so I'll get back to it at some point.

The first world really bored me and almost made me question if I wanted to continue. Starting on world two the game picks up.

Happy Birthday ahead of time in case I forget. Any plans?

Congrats. Good dude that's been here for a long time.

Add to the fact that I've literally seen people act that way in real life is just icing on the cake

That's what made them so great. My wife worked at Target for a couple years and those customer transitions were so relatable to her.

Beat Mocap Boxing with around 4-5 continues. Hardest thing about that game is getting exhausted from all the "Hit the stunned boxer 50 times in 25 seconds" sections.

I feel the same way. While I don't think it'll be remembered as one of the greats like The Office or Scrubs, it's a solid comfortable show with the occasional big laugh.

I think they did the best they could with Season 6 considering the Ferrera leaving/Covid one two punch.

au_gold posted...

Does David Lynch purposely pick bad takes of scenes? One of the guys was giving a sad speech about his wife and the FBI agent started chuckling. It didnt feel like it was scripted.

Either way, it made me laugh.

Kinda sorta. There's a scene within the first couple episodes where they are all in the morgue looking at a body. The light flickers, they look up at it, then continue on. The light flickering wasn't intentional. The actors just rolled with it and Lynch enjoyed it so he kept that scene.

Fire Walk with Me is amazing. It really shows you a different side to Laura. Then S3 is off the rails weird. Only thing I disliked about S3/The Return is that the soap opera aspect of S1 and 2 is gone.

This. Still trying to figure that one out.

Maybe as long as I don't let my eating get out of control. I honestly don't weigh that much to begin with. 6'0 at 178. There's probably about 15-20 pounds that I can shed.
