Can Catdog theme song be substituted for other Nick show themes (Rugrats, Pete & Pete, Clarissa, etc)

Yes

Those are good examples for sure. I know people today who are into house/techno/edm/whatever, and I know they really appreciate 90s electonica, especially euroelectronica. If I was a better friend Id know who some of their favs are haha.

Funny how grunge was so huge, but its the more subdued rock that had staying power. Im talking RHCP, Green Day, Beck

I included electronic because I think it was big in Europe and probably other countries and even in certain places in the US, but damned if I can give any examples.

Genres are blurry. Vote what you feel then explain in the comments why my genre choices and examples are wrong.

Kinda weird to reference one of the most revered shows of all time that just recently got a prequel movie?

I mean theres a lot of other franchises to reference that are a fresher and more audience-appealing part of the zeitgeist. How many do you know that went to see The Many Saints? I thought it was neat but I didnt exactly notice any huge buzz about it.

Kinda weird to reference a show that ended ten years ago but I enjoyed it.

1-2 times a week, on the weekends. I dont wake up early enough to eat on the weekdays.

Currently in the middle of a winter storm, like a lot of people. Im an essential worker, so I had to go into work this morning. My boss called me before I left to ask how far I live from work, and whether it would be too dangerous for me to come in. I only live 12-15 mins away, but he offered to get me a room at a four-star hotel that is 5 minutes away, so that I wouldnt have to drive all the way home.

so I got to work at 9, worked 2 hours until everyone decided it was getting too rough out to stay any longer. I called the hotel and they said they could check me in early. So my girlfriend and I drove to the hotel, checked in, and have been watching movies in our fancy bathrobes all day.

anyway, I just found out that my work will pay for food, so Im gonna go down to the restaurant and buy a $40 burger with a $25 salad, and follow it up with a $20 lava cake. Ill leave a good tip, too.

GBA feels like 20 years ago for sure

.22 cents or .22 dollars? If you bought like 2300 dogecoin Ill sent you five dollars for them.

While I understand what you mean, I still have to laugh at the idea of states that are further north being considered "deeper south."

Sorta like the Midwest being the north-center

I think the average age is already over 30 here, chief. I'm a few months away from being 30 and I'm one of the youngest people here.

Yup. Im 26 and I remember being one of the youngest regulars like four years ago. Not a lot of young new people since then

i've only seen a shiny wurmple so far. honestly though, it's a standalone game with no trade economy so who cares?

Eventually youll be able to go from PLA to Home, and presumably to SwSh for some Pokmon.

A mainline game is defined as a new generation.

Source?

PLA and Lets Go are mainline games because theyre marketed that way. Thats really all there is to it. TPC decides whats mainline, and decidedly these two (three) are part of Gen 7 and 8

Is that how battles look like now!?
No more actually entering battles like in every game so far?
That hurts...

Dude what. Thats one of the greatest features

also, this game is a mainline Pokmon game

Buncha nerds

Another topic of discussion: Do you know anyone who has been in a harmful parasocial relationship? Were they able to see how damaging it was?

wikipedia:

Parasocial interaction refers to a kind of psychological relationship experienced by an audience in their mediated encounters with performers in the mass media, particularly on television and on online platforms.

find a psychologist dot org:

Parasocial relationships are one-sided relationships, where one person extends emotional energy, interest and time, and the other party, the persona, is completely unaware of the others existence. Parasocial relationships are most common with celebrities, organizations (such as sports teams) or television stars. In the past, parasocial relationships occurred predominantly with television personas. Now, these relationships also occur between individuals and their favorite bloggers, social media users, and gamers. The nature and intimacy of parasocial relationships has also matured. Reality television allows viewers to share the most intimate and personal lives of television personas, and celebrities openly share their opinions and activities through various social media outlets such as twitter and Facebook.

This can be a relationship with a vlogger, blogger, celebrity, artist, content creator, radio host, onlyfans girl, etc etc.

It also (imo) doesn't have to necessarily be a bad thing. Or, at the very least, you can acknowledge that it's a relationship where you trade attention/money/whatev for comfort and interaction. As long as it doesn't consume your life, bleed your bank account, or ruin irl relationships, I don't think it has to be a negative relationship in your life.

what do masons even do these days

So things are heating up over there aye?

work is over. Going there now. Whoo

How dare you post this on the day where I said I'd start working out again but didn't.

Im just trying to walk a couple of miles lol. I wouldnt say its a workout.

CoorsLight posted...

I don't understand why people go to a gym just to do cardio, but then again some people don't understand why I'd want to go to a gym than lift weights. But it's much easier to buy a cheap exercise bike than to buy a bunch of dumbbells, a bench, etc. I guess that's besides the point so long as you can afford it and actually use your membership, even if it's just to walk on the treadmill.

well for one thing, my neighborhood and city arent very pedestrian friendly, so if I went out to walk or jog a few miles it would be on road shared with bikes and cars. On top of that, its more embarrassing to be a fat guy running on the street than a fat guy running on a treadmill - at least thats what I think others think. I dont have room in my apt for a treadmill or bike, so thatsout. I could do some cardio without a machine, but paying for the membership and knowing theresa place I can go to get my steps in gives me more motivation and less distraction. Or at least, thats the hope.

At every gym I've been to, it has never taken me long to find out that I'm not the most out of shape person there, which is more or less all I need to not feel self conscious about lifting. And I get self conscious about everything, trust me.

Ill see it when I believe it haha

You should try lifting a bit, it's good for everyone, contrary to a popular belief that weight loss should be strict cardio. And you're not gonna turn into some "muscle man" by accident, trust me. That takes a lot of dedication

I just meant I dont want to waste my time doing exercises that are meant for building muscle when I could be doing something more geared towards shedding pounds. Like I said, I need to read more up about it. But yeah obvs any excessive is going to be better than none and Im not going to accidentally be a bodybuilder lol

The machines have instructions on them

If you use free weights then look up proper form first

Like I said, maybe in a couple of weeks Ill give it a go.

free weights are a definite no-no though. Just thinking about it gives me anxiety

Maybe in a week or two, after watching other people do it plus I should do more research about what kinds of exercises I should be doing to help with the goals I have. Its not like Im trying to become a muscle man dude.

tbh I mostly want to start getting more steps in, and figured I could maybe do 5-10k steps at the gym every day. Im a mix of too scared and too embarrassed to do anything but basic cardio machines <_<

anyway this is my next step on my path to weight loss and junk. As of this morning Ive lost 5.7 pounds since New Years.

hell yes brother

aww man :( his Bat Out of Hell trilogy went way harder than it has any right to be.

Wait so is it empty or is it filled with bread

if being a mans so easy why dont they do it? I realized male was a life shortcut so I decided to be a man before I was born. Why didnt they?

seems like another example of woke americans not pulling themselves by their bootstraps tbh

I havent used messenger regularly since high school I thought it was phased out in favor of WhatsApp a few years ago?

I learned how to ride a bike in college. I havent ridden in 2 years now but Im sure I could
