Dad didn't really buy stuff or support any particular racers. He just liked the spectacle mainly. He stopped watching it like 15 years ago said it lost its outlaw edge. --- You know how fads are.

| furb 01/08/22 1:30:34 AM #221  | My father loved NASCAR. Growing up. We had a ton of at home VHS tapes. My family was a really early adopter of satellite TV in the 80. So we had HBO and junk like that. The family recorded movies like crazy. Dad would record wrecks. But he would just grab the nearest tape. So you would be sitting there watching Goonies and bam, Bobby Alison into the wall at Charlotte. Then back to the movie seconds later. We still laugh about this as a family. I think Blue Oyster Cult really gets shafted. Yes everybody loves Don't Fear the Reaper. Which is fair, but their catalog is great and Dharma is an amazing guitarist.

I had an essay test in a world history course. I had to show. The professor had this thing where you got to write your thoughts about the questions, whether you thought they were fair, and how you think you did. I remember writing something like. I am sick. I am hungover. I am just glad I showed up. Now, I had done the reading for the course so I wasn't boned from the start. But my answers were not great. Prof gave me a B. And wrote something back like yeah I could tell. Thanks for showing up and trying. I think he did me a solid. Got an A in the course at the end. Ended up drinking with that prof at a bar with a few others a year later. I was technically underage at the time too! --- You know how fads are. Today it's brains, tomorrow, pierced tongues.

| furb 01/08/22 12:01:02 AM #130  | Around 4 to 6 beers is my max nowadays. At my peak Lush. College days in a fraternity. I weighed like 146 pounds. What I considered adequately drunk was around a six pack. I would routinely drink around 10 beers on a drinking night. I would usually have a shot or two of liquor in there too. I weigh almost 80 pounds more now and I can't imagine drinking 10 or more beers without being a mess. I was also in undergrad almost 20 years ago. That plays a role too lol. Tolerance is a hell of a drug. Note. Adequately drunk is a tern of art. It is well past safe driving. I know it when I reach it. --- You know how fads are.

| Topic | I've lived rural and in big cities | 
| furb 01/04/22 10:27:32 PM #19  | My hot-take is suburbs seem like the worst. Carbon copy developments with houses too big for their yards. HOAs and weird community dynamics. You don't get the cosmopolitan perks of living in the city or the perks of rural/small town life. The only plus I see is you own the house and you're on real-estate sales ladder. I was a teen in the late 90s and early 2000s. So much of the youth culture was about the ennui of the suburbs and kids coping with it. It always seemed sort of lame to me. That's my bias though so I don't think preferring the suburbs is inherently wrong. I just have a hard time seeing the upsides I guess. --- You know how fads are.

| Topic | I've lived rural and in big cities | 
| furb 01/04/22 10:20:00 PM #16  | I disagree. I prefer my provincial experiences to the big city. I've lived in both too. I'm in my thirties. I'm a professional. I've lived in the middle of nowhere and in Northern VA in the capital sprawl. I'm from the country, and I hated it at many points. Yet, I've really come to appreciate after a few years in a mega city. I will move back to the country eventually I think. Rural life has its own set of headaches much like living the city. Yet my rural life I could get peace and quite around the house. I could do what I wanted on the property and so on. Traffic had a different set of annoyances but it wasn't screaming morons on a the six lane. It was following old people to town or hitting a deer. I recognize the economic and cultural limitations of the rural life. It's a great gig if you have one of the few decent or high paying jobs though. You can bank money and easily travel to cities or hop a plane ticket with the cash you save to large destinations. My biggest critique of rural life is it can be tough to find companionship or camaraderie if your different. Not always a great place to be if you're young either since rural areas skew older. Yet, I find city life grinding. No peace. Crush of people always and everywhere. Cars and traffic, asinine cost of living. I honest see the appeal though. Cultural vivacity and high-culture available with ease. Yet, the cost of everything drags is annoying. If feel like the ideal is 20 or 30 minutes away from a mid-size city where costs are still reasonable but the homestead is out in the hills or a real small town. That's my take though. Your opinions may vary and I respect them because they're not wrong. Unless your view is the country offers nothing of value. --- You know how fads are. Today it's brains, tomorrow, pierced tongues.

Even the worst guys are like 50 percent. Extra point kicking is a very specialized skill. They are only gimmies at the pro level -- not so much now they moved them back.
