Topic | best lego game on sale? |
googs19 04/01/21 11:34:48 PM #4 | They are all very similar, so it is probably best to just pick the one from your favorite IP and get that. Though I think my personal favorite Lego games have been the Harry Potter ones. |
Topic | Best April Fools jokes you've seen? |
googs19 04/01/21 11:10:01 PM #7 | I still miss Think Geek's April Fools products. |
Topic | Are you getting vaccinated? |
googs19 04/01/21 5:13:52 PM #40 | I just got back from getting my first dose and have the 2nd scheduled for the 22nd. Now just 2 more people in my D&D group need to find vaccines and we can actually get together in person! |
Topic | President Biden says 90% of adults will be vaccine eligible in three weeks |
googs19 03/29/21 5:30:57 PM #3 | Unfortunately "vaccine eligible" doesn't mean they have enough vaccine for everyone. |
Topic | What horror books have you read lately? |
googs19 03/29/21 5:18:55 PM #9 | I'm not usually too into horror, though I am currently reading dome HP Lovecraft. |
Topic | Girl of your dreams is really tall, 2inches taller than you! |
googs19 03/29/21 3:19:58 PM #5 | Not necessarily, but a 6'5" girl would be pretty tall. |
Topic | Do you still use an alarm clock? |
googs19 03/29/21 3:04:07 PM #29 | I use an alarm clock, though on most days I wake up before it goes off. |
Topic | Have you got your COVID vaccine yet? |
googs19 03/28/21 1:46:53 PM #4 | No, but I'll get it the second I'm able to after becoming eligible. |
Topic | Do you prefer the streaming binge model or by-week release model? |
googs19 03/28/21 9:41:12 AM #17 | Doom_Art posted... Also I can't tell if people ITT saying "you have no self control" or "just space it out on your own then" are deliberately being dense or just seriously misunderstanding things lol I'm sure with the people here they simply don't understand how having a social interaction would be considered desirable. |
Topic | Do you prefer the streaming binge model or by-week release model? |
googs19 03/28/21 9:12:38 AM #10 | specialkid8 posted... If you don't have the self control to pace your own media consumption I don't know what to tell you. My problem isn't self control, I can easily space out watching episodes. The issue I have is that I enjoy actually discussing episodes with people. If they release it all at once it is difficult to talk about it with anyone because they are either at way different places in the show or have forgotten half of it it by the time I've finished. On the other hand with weekly releases it is easy to find people to talk to who are caught up. Like with Game of Thrones it was great coming in to work on Monday morning and spending like half an hour talking about the latest episode, but with something like Stranger Things the conversations never really went deeper than "I enjoyed it" before someone complained that the were only on episode X and not to talk about any spoilers. |
Topic | Getting crap for getting vaccinated on Monday |
googs19 03/27/21 3:16:08 PM #14 | Turbam posted... Tell them they aren't allowed to see your child until they get vaccinated My wife's friend did that to her mother-in-law and was not happy when she drove hundreds of miles to try and guilt them into letting her see the baby. |
Topic | This chip shortage means no PS5 until 2022 |
googs19 03/27/21 9:57:27 AM #18 | Dat_Cracka_Jax posted... Why is there a shortage? Is it China? I guess you could blame China in that if they could actually manufacture advanced computer chips there might not be a shortage. |
Topic | How big is every tv in your house? |
googs19 03/27/21 8:58:35 AM #5 | We have a single 65" TV currently hooked up. Though we have countless computer monitors and other devices with screens. |
Topic | What is something that Albert Einstein was wrong about? |
googs19 03/21/21 8:33:50 PM #6 | Lukey_Bug posted... Helping make the atomic bomb He wasn't really involved with the development of the atomic bomb, other than coming up with e=mc^2. |
Topic | Immortals: Fenyx Rising is one of the best games ever. |
googs19 03/21/21 12:14:18 PM #3 | I enjoyed it quite a bit, but it was hardly the best game of the year, let alone ever. |
Topic | The GameStop that I first heard about GameFAQs in, is no more |
googs19 03/19/21 4:23:53 PM #22 | Probably through some search engine that pre-dated google. |
Topic | What is your worst cooking mishap? |
googs19 03/18/21 3:58:32 PM #25 | I made a pumpkin pie and forgot to put the eggs in it. One time I was making an angle food cake and waffles at the same time, and accidentally got the cake flour and all-purpose flour mixed up. As an honorable mention from my mom, one time when she was making a cheesecake the eggshells made it into the cake along with the rest of the egg. That still gets brought up every time she makes cheesecake. |
Topic | What's your favorite hot sauce? |
googs19 03/16/21 4:10:05 PM #6 | Ketchup. Mostly kidding, but I pretty much can't stand any food that could potentially be described as "spicy". |
Topic | Pineapple on pizza.....yea or nay |
googs19 03/16/21 3:13:55 PM #12 | I'm fine with pineapple on pizza. I'm not s big fan of Hawaiian pizza though since I don't like Canadian bacon. The local pizza shop has a BBQ chicken pizza with pineapple that is pretty good. |
Topic | So what are you doing for Mothers Day CE? |
googs19 03/14/21 4:49:38 PM #9 | I picked up a Lego flower bouquet for the kids to put together for my wife. We'll probably also go pick up doughnuts or something too on mother's day. Luckily May will still be a bit too early to have a big family get together since not everyone will be vaccinated yet. |
Topic | Are you older now, than your mother was when she birthed you? |
googs19 03/14/21 10:23:50 AM #31 | Only about a year older than my parents were when I was born. They had kids pretty late due to complications conceiving. |
Topic | Has your teacher ever cried during class? >_> |
googs19 03/14/21 10:20:07 AM #5 | One of my elementary school teachers was crying too hard at the end of a book (Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes) to finish it and had one off the students read the ending to the class. |
Topic | Imagine putting the year first, THEN the month and day. |
googs19 03/13/21 11:05:23 AM #4 | I usually use year/month/day when naming files on a computer since they will stay in chronological order when sorted by name. |
Topic | How many movies have you watched this year? |
googs19 03/12/21 11:14:24 AM #19 | I saw the first half hour of Raya and the Last Dragon with the kids. That's about it so far for movies this year. |
Topic | Can you afford a Peloton machine? |
googs19 03/11/21 4:02:03 PM #29 | I could afford one, but I don't see why I would spend that kind of money when I already have my parent's old stationary bike from 20 years ago. I also messed up my hip back in highschool, which isn't normally much of a problem, but if I bike every day or run too much it starts to hurt pretty badly. So spending that kind of money on something I can't use all the time probably isn't worthwhile. |
Topic | How much soda do you drink per day? |
googs19 03/10/21 1:55:31 PM #61 | I'll usually have a couple cans a month on average. Though even that has gone down since the pandemic started since I mostly drink it while playing D&D. |
Topic | Are you getting a $1400 check? |
googs19 03/08/21 8:50:42 AM #2 | Yes, but only because my wife doesn't work. |
Topic | Do you use turbo tax? |
googs19 03/07/21 6:48:33 PM #9 | Yes. Though my dad buys an actual copy of turbo tax every year and I go to my parents house and use it to fill out my taxes. |
Topic | What should your net worth be at age 30? |
googs19 02/22/21 2:12:21 PM #44 | I had about $150k in my retirement accounts when I was 30. |
Topic | Started playing Valheim this weekend, anyone else? |
googs19 02/22/21 10:29:25 AM #3 | My friend set up a server last night and I played for a bit. It seems fun so far, though if my friends weren't playing it I would probably move on to something else pretty quickly. |
Topic | Frozen chicken nuggets: |
googs19 02/20/21 8:51:47 PM #10 | My kids eat a ton of them, but since I'm an adult I would never degrade myself by eating frozen chicken nuggets. |
Topic | What's the most amount of hours you've worked in a single week? |
googs19 02/19/21 11:03:26 AM #21 | Somewhere between 70 and 80. But when it gets they long it is usually because there is travel going on, so it is usually not that bad. |
