The GC was a piece of crap. In fact, in my opinion, Nintendo dropped the ball when they decided to keep the N64 cart based when CD consoles debuted and Nintendo went from being on top of the videogame industry to 3rd place and Sega bowed out altogether and those two were the numbers 1 and 2 video game companies in regards to consoles during the 1980s until the late 1990s early 2000s.

I make coffee at home and drink it from my own cup.

I always find it odd that the so called Jewish state Israel never existed until 1948 so where was it before 1948.

The internet especially social media gave people who otherwise had dull lives a platform to express themselves and some of it is good and some of it is not.

I've had bad luck with earbuds period. I had a pair of SkullCandy wired buds that lasted me about 2 years.

pretty much everything on your list i buy in bulk, especially if its on sale or something. like meats i'll buy a ton of it on sale, and just freeze it to use for the next year. i even have one of those vacuum sealers to make sure that my meats and stuff don't get freezer-burnt.

the only things i don't buy bulk are things that go bad quickly, so like fruits/veggies, yogurt, and stuff like that. i'm also that person at the store who has dozens of coupons every time, because i was raised to be super frugal and always live way below my means, so bulk shopping + coupons seems like the way to go.

Me too when I catch a sale or have coupons which is rare for me LOL

62% of Americans do not have $400 in savings in case of an emergency.

61% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck

67% of Americans spend roughly 43% of their income on rent/mortgage

68% of Americans are not saving enough for their retirement

44% of Americans claim they have had no significant pay raise over the past 3-5 years

63% of Americans are without health insurance and those who do have it are being bombarded with co-pays, deductibles etc etc and dictated to in terms of which doctors we can see or hospital ERs we can visit which to me is socialized fascist medicine,

71% of Americans think things will get worse economically before they get better.

67% of Americans owe $20,000 or more in terms of debt i.e. CC, Medical or Student Loans

51% of Americans claim they use payday loan places between paychecks

This is not a recipe for a stable balanced country and we can and have to do better overall across the board.

That border will never close because employers want cheap labor and people who won't cause a fuss i.e. join unions so that eliminates hiring Americans.

When Reagan took office in 1980, America had 3 to 4M undocumented people here and people told Reagan to send them back and he said wait let me make a call.

Reagan called his good pal JR Simplot who back then was the number one grower and supplier of potatoes for the grocery and fast food industries but he could never keep workers working his farms so Reagan devised a plan to allow those people to stay if they agreed to harvest potatoes and they did for pennies per day because Simplot didn't pay by the hour he paid by the quota meaning you had to pick a certain amount per day to reach max pay which rarely happened because Simplot set the quota amount to a level you would never reach keeping the pay low.

That's why employers love immigrants illegal or not because they can abuse them and get away with it.

I have not!

275 for 2/3 hours and just use whatever dry rub you like and whatever sauce you like and they'll turn out great.

I use Killer Hogs dry rub.and Stubbs sauce.

Mortgage for me!

Ironic thing being Charter pays about $2.2 billion a year for the Disney suite of programming, according to Charter's website, but only 25% of Charter video subscribers "regularly engage" with Disney content.

So it seems not a lot of viewers are watching Disney channels.

So I was gonna watch Florida and Utah football game last night and the screen goes dark so I thought it was a glitch then a few moments go by and there's a message on the screen saying that all Disney owned networks on Charter/Spectrum were off air.

Everybody in this country wants to nickel and dime people to death and it's a shame.

About 88% of the time they're not in my opinion and the entire government and the Courts have all been bought and paid for by the elites and are compromised.

My all time favorite is Milky Way

I usually go with Red Baron.

My name is what? My name is what? Slim Shady LOL

I read that on another site. I loved "King Of The Hill".

For some reason Hollywood did not want this movie to be marketed or released in theaters and I have no idea why and I have not seen it.

Well back in the day you had to actually go out to a club or bar or some other public gathering and actually meet people in person and have a conversation (I know what a novel idea) but then something called the internet came along that allowed people to meet and connect in chat rooms and then social media sites like myspace, facebook,instagram etc.

Nope like most people now my pay goes to my account via direct deposit. They're controlling the money now LOL Push a button and they can immediately stop payment if they choose to.

Everyone keeps freaking out about this, I've never heard of Rao's until this news came out the other day.

Are you serious? Rao's is a very popular Italian restaurant in East Harlem NY and they stay so booked that you have to make reservations weeks sometimes months ahead of time to get a table and their pasta sauce is really really good. They have been in business since 1896.

It's a family owned business and the last owner, the late Frank Pellegrino Sr was also an actor. He played on "The Soprano's" and "Law and Order."

His son runs it now.

Tropico is good, Fallout 4, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Far Cry 4, Hogwarts Legacy to name the ones I know of.

They will.

It seems simple enough. Cambells buys Rao's, uses their power and influence to take that same Rao's and put it in every home like Ragu, but what really is going to happen is the recipe is going to get cheaper and shittier.

That's it.

That's what I am afraid of. They'll start using cheaper ingredients and raise the price on consumers to recoup what they spent to buy it.

The people that took over Hostess did the same thing and those cupcakes are not the ones I remember as a kid.

Why do you have trouble eating chicken? It it a dental issue?

I am no fan of anything Apple period.

If you go back and check Dubya had all of the key players that were connected to his daddy's administration, the same people who started the Gulf War and then Dubya comes in and whammo 911 happens then the Iraqi war etc so in essence Reagan and Bush Sr were responsible for the creation of the so called Muslim terrorists.

This is one of the best jar sauces out there so I hope Campbell's doesn't mess this up.

Wow! I hope dad is doing OK! Workplace related injuries have been on the rise across the board across the country and they especially tick up in Right To Work states so well when you deregulate workplaces injuries tend to increase sadly.

Good job of fucking up the poll so much that you failed to even include the highlighted as an option that you can choose in the poll itself. And that's ignoring the fact that the final poll option has nothing to do with the poll question.

Others got it.

I think I'm eating out a little less than before the pandemic.

People need to stop being led astray by demagogues and fear mongers and look at the bigger picture.

I haven't owned a Nintendo console since the N64! As a kid Nintendo was best thing but as I got older, I went to Playstation. I wish Mario were on other consoles LOL

Good for you because most working people hate their job LOL

Inventor Nikola Tesla claimed he found a way to tap into the earth's natural power i.e. IONOSPHERE to provide FREE WIRELESS ENERGY to power homes, cars etc and this technology has been hidden from the public for over 100 years. When Tesla died in 1943, all of his research papers etc disappeared and have not been seen since.

When Tesla made his claims, J.P. Morgan and Thomas Edison quickly moved to dismiss Tesla and to smear him as being a whack so they buried his theory because needless to say Edison had a huge stake in the conventional wired method of electrical power and Morgan had huge investments in copper mines which back then were used to make copper wiring to wire homes etc for power.

There's claims that there have been tech discoveries that can cure diseases, end hunger, world strife, the need for dependency on fossil fuels etc but as you can imagine there's a very deep dark secretive group that operates outside of the norm that has kept this tech hidden for over the past 70 years or so.

According to the documentary most of this tech came from Roswell NM captured alien craft in 1947 and was discovered in secret underground off the book facilities that are ran by some of America's biggest tech and defense contractor companies and it's all been off book and off radar and kept hidden from the elected US Constitutional Government, POTUS etc and the American people.

Claims have been made suggesting that the tech we now have today (lasers, cell phones, pc chips, etc came out of some of those R&D facilities when they reversed engineered materials and rare non earth metals from those alien crafts.

I mean if just 1% of this is true, that's mind boggling.

I'll be honest with you, I bought mine back in December and to be truthful, I have not been impressed and that $69 price tag isn't appealing to me either but as I said that's my opinion.

I'll say this the best thing I found was being able to download games designated PS4/PS5 so that to me a nice asset but outside of that I don't think I have but two PS5 games.

I liked the SNES version back in the day but haven't played the latest games.

I don't but I see their ads pop up regularly.

Wow I always restaurants did some horrible things but man oh man.
