Growing up for the final 6 months of the 90s, you mean? Napster launched June 1, 1999…

If there’s one play this season that needed the Benny Hill theme song treatment, it’s this one.

Scarecrow Video begs to differ! A Seattle movie rental store since the early 80s, now transitioned to a non-profit “museum” (can still rent video) with 147,000+ titles.

Doesn’t have the nostalgia, but I enjoyed “How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe” by Charles Yu in the same general zone as Ready Player One. It’s playful yet dips toes into the serious or heartfelt at times. About a time mechanic who lives in his time machine with his dog, employed to traverse time and fix time machines of others.

It is a stupid problem, you’re right. So how would you fix it? It’s lazy to call out an entire country, including those who actively work against him, as if they all voted in unison for the same thing. As long as you’re willing to sit on the outside slinging mud at many people who don’t deserve it, people will continue to do the same in return. Grow up.

Or electing your own leaders who are willing to stand up to him on a global stage. Half the country did not elect him. There are protests, there are grassroots movements. What else do you recommend? Pretty easy to sit outside and call millions of people morons, including all those who agree with you. Pretty small-minded if you ask me.

Weird how the rest of the world hasn’t stopped him. Almost as if there are idiots and inaction everywhere.

Completely agree on going with the original source. But to be fair, sites like Yahoo and MSN syndicate the vast majority of their content from other news sources like The New Republic, BBC, ABC, etc., meaning they pay to host it on their pages with a wrapper/credit. They’re not linkjacking or stealing it in cases like this.

Once upon a time I ran a clan in a popular PvE/PvP co-op FPS alien shooter (still going, but has lost its magic). We had a few kinda well-known actors in the group. Shooting aliens one day and bullshitting with one when he gets a call that his best friend and fellow actor/writer OD’ed last night. He didn’t leave, and there wasn’t anything I could say. We shot aliens in silence for quite a while.

Yup that could be. I’m not expecting anything of them.

I read 7 minutes, but nonetheless, I just found that recording odd. If you were a tourist there with your phone, you’d be recording the guy you assume to be doing maintenance on a case? I’m not suggesting some plot or conspiracy theory or batshit stuff like that. They stole the stuff and got away with it. I just found that video odd. Regardless, we weren’t there and can’t know all the ins and outs.

True, but that still begs the question, why were they filming that person if they didn’t think something was going on? Not that I’d expect a bystander to throw themselves upon a thief, but interesting they still got away after being noticed and filmed during.

And someone was just standing there, recording it on their phone? Something not adding up.

Questions that only Tucker Carlson would know.

Nearly all NFL players try to taunt each other. When it’s a business and that much money is involved, it’s a WWE show and they know it. Spitting at the ground says, “I don’t respect you and I’m daring you to come after me.” Spitting in someone’s face says, “You are subhuman.” That is the line in the sand. I support any and all punishment for that fragile-ego coward. What a snowflake.

Is that not completely shut down as of this week?

As great as the improvements have been, I’ve still not seen an alternative that can compete with gas when it comes to tilting a pan or wok. Losing heat every time you lose direct, flat contact is so frustrating for certain cooking styles. Also being able to roast (and not fully bake) a pepper over the flames is so helpful. If an alternative could do those two things, I’d be very excited.

Dig her up in 4 years.

Can’t be a coincidence with Jakobi requesting a trade, right?

Long f*cking live AMD.
