Topic | Having Wednesdays off work is a serious game changer |
PsychicHippo 04/25/23 12:11:41 AM #6 | I also four 10's with Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays off and absolutely love it. It's so nice to go to the store or an appointment midweek, and traffic is much better going to work on the weekends --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Yay or nay: Corn |
PsychicHippo 04/23/23 5:20:48 PM #10 | Years ago I threw up after eating corn - not because of it - but I have forever after associated it with that moment and haven't been able to eat it since. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | have you evolved into a cranky old person |
PsychicHippo 04/19/23 7:18:01 PM #3 | I think my first words out of the womb were "Get off my lawn," but having just turned 40 last year it's definitely justified. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Do you listen to/like Bad Bunny? |
PsychicHippo 04/17/23 11:59:33 PM #12 | I see the name in headlines but don't know who it is or what they do. But going by this topic I'm gathering singer. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Does anyone else get jesse eisenberg michael cera confused ? |
PsychicHippo 04/14/23 11:06:21 PM #10 | As in literally mistaken for one another? No. But they're definitely the same 'type." --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Are you unintelligent if you don't believe in evolution? |
PsychicHippo 04/13/23 12:43:13 PM #32 | I mean, I'd say they're willfully blocking some key piece of information from their brain, or at the very least having trouble reconciling it with whatever beliefs they had previously ingrained. But to say they are actually dumb or unintelligent might not be totally fair. It just depends. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | When it comes to the Harry Potter, can you separate the art from the artist? |
PsychicHippo 04/12/23 5:37:15 PM #5 | Yes. For context I'm gay and have several trans coworkers and acquaintances. But here's my thing - if you look deep enough into any business you're going to find money coming from or going to somebody you don't like, so just enjoy what you enjoy. All these people thinking they're sticking it to her by burning her books or boycotting the Hogwarts Legacy game and whatever are really just punishing themselves. Now, I'm not saying I'd sit down and have dinner with the woman, but objectively she is creative and brilliant and I enjoy spending time in the fictional universe she has created. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Do you generally wish the weather were warmer, by where you live? |
PsychicHippo 04/12/23 5:31:06 PM #22 | As an Arizonan...no. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Would you rather go to a Taylor Swift or Bruce Springsteen concert |
PsychicHippo 04/10/23 12:04:01 AM #11 | I've already seen Bruce Springsteen a couple times. I like a lot of Taylor's songs but wouldn't go out of my way to see her live. My only absolutley "must see" is Madonna. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | If you do at least 100 wall push-ups a day you will be absolutely shredded |
PsychicHippo 04/06/23 10:12:34 PM #6 | A decade of dancing has left me very slim - I lost about 60 pounds my first year taking it up - but I kind of gave up on muscle definition. My thousand situps a day routine only left me with two hernias, lol. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | How do you pronounce "Geoff" |
PsychicHippo 04/06/23 12:03:54 AM #27 | My first thought would be "Jeff" but I did have a boss once who pronounced it "Jee-off," so now I kinda hesitate before I assume. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | is there any restaurant as overrated as Chick Fil A |
PsychicHippo 04/04/23 10:57:11 PM #20 | I'd say In & Out. It's not that it's bad, I just don't see why people think it's SO good. Chik-fil-a is ok too it's just crazy expensive. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Is Gotham Knights with it at 30 bucks? |
PsychicHippo 04/04/23 12:09:42 AM #8 | Talk2DaHand posted... Good for single player?Very much so. I paid full price and don't regret it; I went through it three times in a row. It's true it's not an Arkham game but if you like those you'll still probably like this. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Favorite thing to put in a grilled cheese? |
PsychicHippo 04/04/23 12:05:57 AM #42 | Honestly, nothing. Bread and cheese is all I need. Sometimes I'll dip it in tomato soup or something, but the sandwich itself is pretty bare bones. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Do any of you like del taco more than taco bell? |
PsychicHippo 04/02/23 11:59:00 PM #14 | I haven't had either one in probably ten years, but I do remember Del Taco being somewhat better. I feel like they had better deals and more variety, too. Also somewhat healthier, as fast food goes anyway. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Do you think that working for Uber or DoorDash seems like a bad job to have? |
PsychicHippo 03/30/23 10:25:59 AM #14 | It just doesn't seem like a viable fulltime, "real" job. It's more like what you'd do to earn a few bucks for Christmas presents or something. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | How often do you laugh out loud when you watch a movie or tv show? |
PsychicHippo 03/20/23 10:21:33 PM #5 | Never. I might let a little snicker slipout every once in a while but that's all. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Remember that game Hogwarts Legacy? |
PsychicHippo 03/18/23 8:52:50 PM #66 | awsomemanspiff posted... I got it! I loved it! Plan on getting the platinum soon!I got my platinum last week after the patch fixed the glitch that was holding me back. There were definitely things I didn't like about it, but overall it was a really great, immersive experience. Clocked about 80 hours total. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | How much would you spend to attend a concert by your favorite living artist? |
PsychicHippo 03/18/23 8:50:15 PM #7 | I have paid up to 300ish to see Madonna in the past, but for her tour coming up in July I opted for the 140 seat. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Is it rational to own a gun as a self defense weapon against a home invasion? |
PsychicHippo 03/16/23 10:55:10 PM #105 | It's not irrational to keep a weapon in the home for safety. What doesn't make sense is the need to let everyone know what a big, brave boy you are by walking around the grocery store with your holster on full display. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | is there a place with a better quesadilla than chipotle |
PsychicHippo 03/13/23 11:12:41 AM #8 | Literally anywhere, probably. It's actually funny to see this post today because my husband brought one home recently and I was like, how the hell did they screw THIS up? But by George, they found a way. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Brendan Fraser |
PsychicHippo 03/13/23 12:08:33 AM #13 | Seems like a nice, humble guy but I'd be lying if I said I've seen any of work besides Mummy Returns. (Which I love, for what it's worth.) --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | I watched Everything Everywhere All At Once. I'll be honest. I didn't get it. |
PsychicHippo 03/13/23 12:05:42 AM #26 | It just struck me as weird for weird's sake, which is totally fine, but don't pretend it's this deep, intellectual, profound thing, because it's really not. That said, I do like a lot of the people involved with it and was happy to see them shine anyway tonight. Plus it's about the first Oscar nominated movie I'd heard of, much less actually seen, in like seven years, lol. Go Jamie Lee! --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Losing weight is so hard |
PsychicHippo 03/01/23 8:37:29 PM #24 | I lost 70 pounds playing Just Dance on the Wii, and now the Switch. Thinking of exercise like a game helps it seem less like a chore. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Chelsea Handler |
PsychicHippo 02/26/23 1:20:20 PM #14 | I've always loved her. You should read some of her books if you haven't. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Is it Pop or Soda? |
PsychicHippo 02/19/23 11:14:39 PM #9 | I was born in Iowa so I have always said pop, and also supper. I try to edit depending who I'm around, but "soda" has never felt natural to me. However, I'm not as bad as my mom who says catsup. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Who would you rather see do stand-up: Biden or Trump |
PsychicHippo 02/18/23 4:33:43 PM #4 | Trump's not self-aware enough to be genuinely funny, which is a shame since he'd have a lot of jackassery to draw from. Biden would obliterate him...as usual. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | is ps5 worth it? |
PsychicHippo 02/18/23 4:30:19 PM #10 | Lost_All_Senses posted... I just watched a video yesterday saying the Gotham Knights hate was exaggerated and was just people bandwagoning instead of giving it a solid chance. He still said it was a 7/10, but he said he had fun once he got into it. I think it's really easy to sway public opinion on an average game. Because if it's average and someone goes in wanting to hate it, they'll see every little thing as a major problem. I constantly see reviews where people bitch about stuff that Im like "....wait. That's how it is in that other game everyone considers a classic too".Yeah I did, it was a little wordy, lol. But since you mention it anyway Gotham Knights was definitely an incentive, and as it turned out I loved it quite a lot. Not Arkham level amazing, but a similar vibe, and fun enough to play through three times on a row. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | is ps5 worth it? |
PsychicHippo 02/17/23 11:13:07 PM #8 | It was for me, making me regret dilly-dallying for so long. And I say this as someone who doesn't usually care much about technical stuff like framerate and loading screens, but the improvement is noticeable. Plus a lot of the games I was interested in were not coming out for ps4, so it seemed like a good investment right now. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Name a part from one of your favorite games that you really don't like |
PsychicHippo 01/31/23 8:39:26 PM #13 | Batmobile and Riddler races in Arkham Knight. Ugh. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Rate this series: Married with Children |
PsychicHippo 01/29/23 11:30:17 PM #7 | I loved it at the time but recently watched the entire series on DVD and it's a little rougher than I remember. Still love it for how much it pushed things but not every episode is a winner, the earlier seasons especially.. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Is there a movie you wanted to UNSEE? |
PsychicHippo 01/22/23 11:08:47 PM #184 | Mr_hulk88 posted... Why did you not like it?Well I didn't think it was actually bad. It just struck me as very run of the mill and something I'd already seen a hundred times before. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Is there a movie you wanted to UNSEE? |
PsychicHippo 01/22/23 1:03:44 PM #167 | The list of "unsee" movies that I actually HATE is pretty small. If anything, I see a lot of movies late and feel they're a bit overrated by all the hype I've heard going into it. (Hereditary, ahem.) But to answer the original question, the last movie I felt truly wasted my time was Mandy. (And I will defend Nicolas Cage a lot, lol.) --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Why do people find it worth it to commute far from home to work? |
PsychicHippo 01/21/23 7:36:04 PM #3 | I have a 35 mile commute that I guess some people would call far. But I got a hell of a deal on my house in 2010 at the bottom of the crash in a nice, clean, smaller city. My job also suits me; I'm an introvert with a lot of anxiety issues and I live fairly nicely on my salary. All these things combined make me happy with the status quo. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | The 90s really were the best time to be a kid. I do not envy future generations. |
PsychicHippo 01/18/23 8:43:02 PM #24 | I agree and think about this quite often, actually., how I was a kid at just the perfect time. I know people say it's just nostalgia, but I truly do believe that music, movies, TV, toys, and pop culture in general were all at their peak in the 90s. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Would you vote for Trump in 2024 if his victory cured cancer |
PsychicHippo 01/14/23 11:13:07 PM #18 | As someone who's had cancer twice, no. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | In-N-Out fries are only good with their spread |
PsychicHippo 01/08/23 11:12:08 PM #33 | Yeah their fries are really bland, but the burgers are tops. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Were you alive for the Y2K chaos? |
PsychicHippo 12/31/22 2:08:57 PM #14 | Yes, I was a senior in high school. I didn't really fret over the whole Y2K thing, though. I think by then it was already quashed as much ado about nothing. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | People who wear clothing with USA flags are likely racist. |
PsychicHippo 12/29/22 11:59:04 AM #12 | Well, I don't know if I'd go THAT far, but the American flag has definitely taken on new connotations over the last few years. The far right seems to have hijacked it as a symbol of their beliefs, which yes, does sometimes include racism, I suppose. I actually wouldn't be surprised if in the not too distant future this country either creates a while flag due to our current one being soiled so much, or at the very least adopts a second one with America splitting into two different factions. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Everything Everywhere All At Once was not that good. |
PsychicHippo 12/21/22 3:29:11 PM #57 | I didn't really care for it, either. I mean it was ok, but really more "look at me and how weird I am" rather than actually about anything. I'm fine with weird for weird's sake, but don't pretend it's not. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | There's only reason left to even own an android in 2022 |
PsychicHippo 12/19/22 11:36:54 AM #90 | I have an android and I don't even know what that means. But that said, I don't run my life from my phone; when I buy a new one just say to give me something I can make a call on. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | ''In-N-Out is overrated'' |
PsychicHippo 12/14/22 6:27:23 PM #56 | It is, but that's not to say it isn't still delicious. Well, their burgers are. Their fries tend to be completely flavorless. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | How is New Girl? |
PsychicHippo 12/14/22 10:52:50 AM #9 | I only saw the first three seasons because they stopped putting it out on dvd, which is how I get my media. But it's brilliant, is all I can say. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Have you ever liked Ellen Degeneres? |
PsychicHippo 12/14/22 10:51:27 AM #7 | She's ok in small doses. I liked her sitcom more than her talk show. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | What's everyone's favourite album of the year? |
PsychicHippo 12/12/22 9:14:24 PM #22 | I didn't actually buy a lot of new music this year, but I am getting a lot of mileage out of Harry's House. Or, Madonna's Finally Enough Love is up there even though it's a compilation. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Who is the most famous musician you've ever seen live? |
PsychicHippo 12/11/22 11:14:06 PM #13 | Madonna, on every tour since 2001. Her stage shows are an assault of the senses. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
Topic | Apparently Kristie Alley died? |
PsychicHippo 12/05/22 9:17:54 PM #28 | She was nuts, but I love her work. I rewatch Fat Actress pretty regularly, but am sad Veronica's Closet was never released on disc. --- Psychic medium, paranormal enthusiast, author. Not a new age hipster, just a normal guy who sees stuff. |
