    Do you ever eavesdrop on a conversation, and its complete gibberish nonsense, and you think to yourself: "The computer simulation I live in is saving resources by not fully rendering the surrounding world."

    • Just overheard two women discussing their friend couple, who are trying to make a baby, but one of them is not allowed to sleep in beddrgs

    So I was at this listening party (ya it's a thing people do) where everyone share drinks and music. Also it's important to note that I was the only not musician in the room. Ya seriously everyone plays, performs and records. I made them listen to the entirety of free bird.
    Very proud of my self. So proud.
    Pat my self on the back.

    Just spent 3 hours making a playing card box for my in-laws — laser cut stained wood, double thickness with hidden details, lid with the name of their game etched into it as a pattern, the stained over for depth relief rather than contrast - bottom and inside bottom are covered in dark felt and the lid inserts with a plug like thing tha also has a felt rim.

    It might have had a chance at being wonderful had I not about 2 hours ago slightly over-tightened one of the clamps when I was setting the adhesive for the main walls, so now it's ever so slightly pissed.

    Too late, I'm flying in the morning. Another grand waste of time/ overwrought confirmation of failure.

    Also, I've assumed a certain card-size - if their cards are different, it's going to be doubly shit. HAHAHAHA.

    Nnngh.

    Ways to make extra cash during the holidays?

    Aquaman is worse than Venom. Characters you never relate to. Poor comedic efforts and timing. The entire time I was wondering who this woman they got to act in this that looks like Nicole Kidman, are they related? Then holy shit, that plastic surgery abomination I think they’re trying to make look like Nicole Kidman is actually Nicole Kidman! Plus, the other big name actors they hired barely did anything but float in the water and talk. Visual masturbation with no substance. Do not see.

    • modern mainstream cinema?mugwart
    • these are my words from that night:

    • hotroddy, the problem is the writing and reliance on computer graphics. One could argue that these are some of the most technically advanced movies andfreedom

    • Truly bad film. Eye vomit.RumperChunk
    • This has nothing to do with content and everything to do with delivery. DC is flailing looking for the Marvel formula.imbecile
    • Of course it's extra cheesy and not great, it's a DC superhero movie. It's "better" than Justice League, tho.Maaku

    I went on my first date after being newly single. It was a really strange experience -- my friend pressured me into going. But, I feel a little better just knowing men out there still think I'm hot. It was a nice holiday ego boost because I was SO down going into it.

    Get Hagerty insurance if you own a classic or collectible vehicle. They've been letting me tow my FJ from inspection to home then to another inspection from which it will be towed home again, all in an effort to assist in getting it registered; using their roadside assistance plan that I purchased along with my insurance. Highly recommended.

    Holy shit
    remember that new girl at work I talked about?
    She bought me a shirt from A/E. It's 5 or 6 times more expensive then any gift I've ever got from any coworker.
    Now I feel bad I didn't buy anything for her ... And or anyone.
    It an alright shirt. I kinda question her taste now but really impressed she fork out that much money to buy me that.
    She's is either trying really hard to kiss ass or a real senpai notice me vibe.
    I'm giggling here. Lol

    • First!! Is she hot?OBBTKN
