I keep track of the books I read, games I play, and TV shows I watch.
I don't really care enough about movies to do the same thing.

When my friends are hanging out they always say something like "show up between 1 and 2."
If I show up at 1, I'm usually there by myself for an hour. If I show up at 2 I'm inevitably the last one there and everyone else is waiting on me.

Yeah, I remember it.
Though it is funny nowadays going into an electric substation and seeing signs stating that the facility is Y2K ready, since no-one has bothered to take them down in the last 20 years.

I'm nearly 34, am married with 3 kids, have a steady job, and own a house.
I'll get back to you when I actually start feeling like an adult though...

I did it to avoid inflicting the image of my face upon my unwitting co-workers, not out of paranoia.

It might be kind of boring not being able to go on a vacation out of the state for 10 years, but I think I could manage to be that lazy.

It isn't some super important high stakes gambling where it will matter if the dice are not 100% fair.

Just get something you think looks cool.

Or get dice there are hard to read from a distance so you can lie to the DM.

I don't particularly need either, though I'd choose the length vs. the height since I would rather not be freakishly tall.

Can we please get a goddamned Balanced Budget Amendment.

The problem is that deficit spending is an important tool for the government under certain situations, so you wouldn't want to outlaw it entirely. However, having deficit spending every year, even when the economy is booming, should not be allowed.

Lies!

Planet earth explodes. Everyone is dead.

I'm taking 2 weeks off of work around Christmas. I'll probably spend most of it playing video games, reading, and spending time with the family.

Definitely:
Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Ori and the Will of the Wisps
Psychonauts 2
Bayonetta 3

Possibly:
Marvel's Avengers
Ghost of Tsushima
The Last of Us Part II

10.5 hours of sleep is way too much.

Also, I live close to work so I don't have to waste 2 hours in a car every day. Though I would recommend getting some audio books so you can "read" while commuting to work.

That post starts with the false premise that I wouldn't do that to a sandwich.

Chex mix for my side of the family and salad for my wife's.

I'm a vegetarian so my family is making me bring my own food.

My wife is a vegetarian and gets super annoyed and her family because they put meat in everything (her grandma even uses chicken broth in the mashed potatoes). My family on the other hand actually has multiple vegetarians so she has plenty to eat.

How about the Republicans run a candidate that doesn't put their own self interest above that of the country? The democrats are putting so much effort into countering trump that they probably wouldn't do well against a more sane Republican candidate.

To annoy people who are overly critical of grammar.

My co-worker had a baby born about 2 months early. By the time they were able to bring it home the hospital bill was over a quarter of a million dollars before insurance.

Yes.

If you're that offended, just go to a different store that doesn't treat you like a criminal for shopping there.

Make sure to charge your USB battery charger regularly. If you just charge it and forget it in your kit for a year it might not have much charge left by the time you need it.

Luckily it is supposed to warm up after today.

I usually go out too eat with my family. I also take the day off of work, but that is more because I have off between Christmas and New Year's, not specifically because of my birthday.

I've seen to compared to good fallout games, but comparing it to fallout 76 is petty stupid.

The only purpose of "ok boomer" is to troll people.

I manage to get through about 3 or so a week during my commute.

Comedy/satire like P.G. Wodehouse, Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Catch 22.

I read plenty of other types of books, but those are usually my favorites.

I feel like the reason most people who win the lottery end up broke is because they are so bad with money that they actually buy lottery tickets.

Masquerade a couple weeks ago (It's more of a card game, but there is technically a board involved).

Of course. It's not poison or gonna choke you

No, I just thought that adding meat, sausages, and other ingredients to the sauce was required for it to be called spaghetti.

No... Spaghetti noodles are all that is required for it to be spaghetti.

Assuming America is still around, there will probably be some pretty big celebrations for the Semiquincentennial in 2026.

A couple times:
I ordered pizza at a restaurant once without onions and it came out with onions on it.
And one time I ordered a chicken sandwich that came out with hamburger on it rather than chicken, since I don't like hamburger I wasn't going to eat it.

Wherever you want.

Why would I change your mind when you're correct?

The Outer Worlds and Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair

While it is pretty much guaranteed that Cyberpunk will be a better game, The Outer Worlds is fantastic so far.

The Entertainment Weekly review where they game the movie an F was the first time I remember realizing that critics can be horribly wrong.

I'm fine with that since "Xbox exclusive" means that it can be played on Windows too.

I think you're forgetting about GameFAQs.

New varieties of apples are created by making hybrids of existing varieties of apples. There is no such thing as "overhybridizing" them.

If they are replacing red delicious apples it shouldn't matter for recipes. Since specifically calling for a red delicious apple would be a pretty good indication that a recipe shouldn't be used.

Yes.
I always liked it when I was growing up because I got all the recessive genes from my parents, with both of them and my brother having brown hair and brown eyes.

53. Though I've played pokemon red, but not yellow.

I'm wondering if the game's association with Fallout isn't going to hurt it more than help it.
I was talking to a co-worker (who actually follows video game news pretty closely), and they basically said that they thought the game looks good, but that after Fallout 76 they don't want to support Bethesda.
After I pointed out that Bethesda had nothing to do with this game they were much more interested.

Just Detective Pikachu with my kids.

I've also seen Endgame and Spiderman, just not in theaters.

Some Lego Minecraft sets with my kids last weekend.

One of my co-workers caught a ball with his face at a minor league game.
