i was randomly thinking about FRIENDS just the other day.
specifically how much i disliked that one episode that's basically just a 20 minute long commercial for Pottery Barn

Was that the one where one of the girls furnished their apartment on noticed that someone else's was entirely decorated like the Pottery Barn window display? Or that someone had the cabinet or something from the display?
Or was that Seinfeld?

Nope. At least nothing I ever came across.

The weapon/shield breakage is the biggest reason (but there's others) the game hovers in the 6-7/10 range instead of what could have been like a 9.
It's a massively bad mechanic that really ruins things.

I am of the mind that anything and everything is on the table when it comes to jokes. And people who get offended need to pull the stick out of their ass.

But this thing with Gunn. These whiney leftists are the ones that created this new age of puritan Motion Picture Production Code esq nonsense. So by their own standards they can't have Roseanne punished but Gunn not. I don't agree with either but they wanted this so it needs to be equal.

I won't say exactly what I'm thinking about that woman and her supporters.
Just that they're a whole lot nastier than what that San Bernardino prosecutor said about her.

Just so everybody is clear, EternalDivide's thoughts on Maxine Waters are "a whole lot nastier" than "being a loudmouthed [c-word] in the ghetto you'd think someone would have shot this bitch by now."

Yup. Thought I was being crystal clear when I said it.

As much as I love VIII. Rinoa and Squall's sudden 180 into unjustifiable obsession with her are the worst parts. And I'm including the orphanage twist. And it's not like the plot was written as if his obsession with her could be chalked up to be 'because the power of boners' because at least that would have been excusable as they're teenagers. Instead it's written as this actual deep non sexual love between the two that's all based out of what? She's annoying and needs attention?

She is just the worst. Her character is an idiot brat with daddy issues. After that she's just a literal vessel for the plot to hang around.

You do realize that the attitude expressed by TC is exactly why liberal costal elitists, no matter how many millions of them there are shouldn't have a strong say in parts of the country (90% of it) where they look down on everyone from there and couldn't begin to give a damn about either.

So when people, and I'm sure TC is one of them, cry about the EC come election time. This attitude. This exact thing is why it's there and never going anywhere.

I wouldn't give money to people just because if I had billions to throw around. In very specific cases yes. But I mean specific like a family in the church needs donations to help bury someone. A kid died. Their house burned down. All cases that have actually happened.
But outside of that I would be inclined to donate to something like cancer research, buying coastal land in middle/north CA and replanting redwoods and then leave it to the state park system when I die. And to cat care. No kill shelters for cats.
And if we're talking billions with most of it to throw around I would fund all that to an extreme.

Not to people though. People are shitty. But that's just my view.

I never knew what I wanted to be. I had no strong pull towards anything really.
I didn't know as a kid.
I didn't know in high school when everyone is pressuring you to decide at 15 what you want to do with the rest of your life.
I didn't know in my 20s when people said take out a loan and go to college as if money grows on trees and debt you can't pay back is nothing.
I don't now at 36.

You just end up in something you never thought you would be in. Usually it sucks but that's reality. That seems to be everyone I know including those that told me to take out those loans.

My cat is the most affectionate animal I've ever had. Very very chatty, always rubbing against me and always wants to be close. Even if she's outside on a nice day she usually sits or sleeps under the closest window she can hear me through.
Other cats can be real jerks you don't dare pick up though.

Either way. Cats at least don't eat actual shit the way dogs do. Which is all I can think of every time I see someone smooching their dog or letting it lick them.

Magazines at friends house. The internet didn't exist the way it does now in 1996. Most people didn't even have a PC in their home at that time. I was only the second out of anyone I knew that got it and a PC and that was the spring of 1999.

These although idk what the BBQ place is. And imho skip SeaWorld. It's a shell of it's former self.

It's somewhat of a tourist trap but go to Old Town. Park on one side and just walk it in the evening. It's so relaxing and nice. Lots of shops and great places to eat. There's a big white building near the Old Town square that's a restaurant called the Continental or Centennial or Cosmopolitan I think (it's something like that). It was delicious. I've always loved going to Old Town since I was a kid.

I think technically I'm overweight. I'm 5'7" and fluctuate between 160 and 165. But those same charts say I should be around 135 and I'm sorry but that's way too low. The lowest I've been was 143 the summer my dad was dying and idk stress, not sleeping, not eating, etc. did that. I looked like hell.
I would like to get back to my teen weight of 150 but it seems like it's impossible to get there. Plus it's 20 years later so it is what it is.

Montgomery Ward. Now that was a store that always felt depressing to be in. Like you could just feel the subpar-ness everywhere.
I got dragged to the malls by my grandparents every single Sunday of my life from when I was a month old (with pictures to prove it) to when she died and still went after because that was the only place to shop for a while.
So 1 of every 7 days in my life more or less was spent at malls from 1982 to 1995.

Montgomery Ward, Harris', Gottschalk's, then Harris Gottschalk's. The May Co. then Robinsons May, Macys, The Broadway. Woolworth, Mervyn's, Newberry's. Then there was Cornet, Fedco, Best (not to be confused with Best Buy).
And of all that only Macys is still around. I think they absorbed half of those other mall stores.

Home Depot and Lowe's are basically immune to Amazon. Home repair items go into the thousands of specific items, many of which you need to see in person or take samples in. Plants, lumber, concrete, framing, doors, etc. Amazon is never taking that.

Poor selection and bad prices. Messy stores too. Sort of like the Sears of the electronic stores.

Of course Sears is currently being operated as some sort of money laundering scheme by it's majority owner. It's over my head. But essentially he's intentionally investing money in it even though the writing's on the wall that it's going under completely. He sells off assets like Craftsman from it. And once Sears goes bankrupt he remains principal owner as it's creditor even though he loses his equity stake.
It's all highly scummy.

I keep hoping my bullies from high school all die from crotch rot. I always read the local obituaries to see if anyone I want to see in there is in there.

I have my own horror story about one and his father that involved blackmail and revenge over my mother turning down his father when they were in high school. Unbeknownst to me at the time. Long story I don't want to get into. But it was bad and goes far beyond that. And all of that did effect me and made me into the person I am now. I recognize that. But there's no escaping that reality. I can't and won't trust people. In fact I hate most people. Always be on the defensive. People are always looking to hurt you.

So I promised myself nearly 20 years ago. My little revenge because it's all I have. I will piss on those two's graves. I will outlive them both. Out of sheer hate I will outlive them. That's my goal. They're an old time family in town so I'll hear through the grapevine when they kick off even if they're living elsewhere. And if I have to drive 1000 miles to do it I will.

I'm leaving the senator part blank in Nov. These liberal fucks out here rigged the system so they'll only be two Dems on the ballot for senator anyway. I'd rather walk on glass barefoot than vote for a Dem for senate. And they like to whine about the GOP ballot shenanigans.

I'll sure as hell be voting to repeal the gas tax though. It'll put a stop to Sacramento from ever being able to raise new gas and car taxes without a public vote ever again too. So good, fuck those pos liberals who think everyone in the state has a disposable income to pay for all their bs like they do.

We made it. The big event story it's all been building to is concluded. Assumedly most of the original cast will be leaving and I have no interest in seeing boring ass Black Panther leading the team. Or Captain Marvel and whatever unearned deus ex machina they're going to pull with her that'll ruin Avengers 4. Adam Warlock. Eternals. I just don't care. I feel exhausted by the thought of more after next year.

Didn't California just spend the last few weeks having meltdowns over putting children in detention centers?

A common misconception is that all of CA is the same liberal hive mind that infects the LA and Bay areas. A large chunk is conservative.
I'm in Riverside county. I work in a school district. Not Moreno Valley thank god. While in one hand I agree since some pain in the ass kids are obviously headed in the wrong direction and this may seem extreme but some need this. But on the other, not for something like kicking an orange near a cop. Ridiculous levels of security (which I have harped on about on here before) in schools and the unbelievable overreaction by law enforcement is nauseating though. Chill the fuck out.

My biggest is a hernia surgery scar I got when I was like 5. It's a few inches across. Below my waistline but above my crotch. Can't see it too well anymore unless I trim.
But I have about a dozen other small scars on my legs and arms. All from scratches and bumping into things over the years. Nothing major that caused them. In fact it's kind of odd to me that such little injuries leave the scars that they have.

Pretty little tuxedo kitten.
I've dealt with lots of cats over the years. They're not at all as helpless as some think. Even ones younger than that.
It's old enough to eat can food. Kitten dry food too if you add milk to it. Take it to a vet to get it checked out and cleaned up. Shots. Yeah you're looking at a hundred bucks but it's worth it.
Get a litter box and hopefully it'll figure it out. I've never had a cat that didn't figure the litter box out immediately so long as they can get inside it. And I raised two from a few days old when the worthless mother cat wouldn't take care of them.
If it's already taken to you then hopefully you have a nice little lap cat for years to come. Just fatten it up. Filled out tuxedo cats are beautiful.

He saves what others throw away
He says that he'll be rich some day
