  1. "Monday you're new and Friday you're through; in Butt Town."
  2. Yeah, that's basically what Troy was trying to do. Unfortunately no one cares about Xennials these days (unless it's tech related like Louis Rossmann or something completely off the rails like Rogan or Jones, and even then it's only a meager following.)
  3. Mini fridge with a freezer compartment, either that or servant with feet. ... Now I wonder how hard it would be to hook up a fridge inside a dumbwaiter. But first I'd need to build a dumbwaiter.
  4. Ironically I'm sure (though they do live in Canada, I think they just give them away.) Fun fact, if I'm ever invited over there to DJ my first/last track will be "God Save the Queen" by The Sex Pistols or something equally as offensive. Abolish the Monarchy! I had a friend with Mao as a fridge magnet.
  5. Small is great though, even if you do pay slightly more. Meijer might be local, but that doesn't mean they're small though, if anything they're medium. Even small isn't great sometimes though. Family run is fine, but that usually means no union or HR department (even though HR is never your friend, sometimes it is necessary.) I'm certainly not a fan of Wallmart either even though I have a Sam's Club membership that I hardly use (because of my father.) I'll probably just let that expire when it comes around again. Also Walmart has good prices on ammo, which is the only thing I ever go there to shop for. Really mostly we just do Kroger because it's the closest to us. Either way though consumption is still consumption and everything ends up in a landfill eventually. Either you get tired of it, it gets broken, you move and it gets forgotten, it gets stolen/misplaced, or you die and it either goes directly to the trash or an estate sale and then eventually the trash. Because in the end everything is attrition. Other than the food waste that I produce I personally try to reuse/recycle as much as I can. Which is pretty sad considering my philosophical views, and wile I'm not great I'm still doing better than a lot of people out there. I've also written a bit more on this here and here. Also I may have repeated myself here and if so I am sorry. I'm not necessarily saying not to consume things, as we should enjoy life as much as we can. I just bought some new fitted sheets for my mattress with a deeper pocket since the memory foam topper that my friend gave me increased the total height to 40cm. That said if anyone wants some good used black queen sized sheets LMK.
  6. I got to meet them once when they did a show and they were very nice people. I was very sad to hear that news and I'll definitely have to grab that album.
  7. ADHD? Kidding, sorta. I just forget to hang out with people, or even ask. You get shot down enough and you just stop trying, and it's really their loss anyway (or my gain since they probably aren't worth hanging out with to begin with.) The problem is ADHD, so I forget that I should stop caring and so I try again later. Sure everyone deserves a second chance but I really need to try to remember the limit is two and that if they want to they can contact me. However my birthday party is seven days away now, so I'll still contact the really old friends that I actually liked whom I've fallen out of contact with and then invite them out of some sense of nostalgia and trying to hang onto the past so I can at least say that I tried and made the effort.
  8. So there is this theory that it costs more to be poor/frugal. For example, in this case a doctor's visit or hospital bill costs more than just going out and buying new mix. Sometimes I can taste when the milk starts to turn before the date. As soon as that date hits it's gone whether I can or not. Is it food waste? Yes. Do I care? Not at all. Food waste doesn't exist as at the very least it can probably be composted, it's the waste from the packaging that is the real problem.
  9. I don't get this. If I know I'm dying like in the next day or so I want literally all of the drugs and alcohol. I want to not be anywhere near reality when it happens. Maybe even something that can be injected into my brain to destroy the cluster responsible for pain reception. I want to not exist before I cease to exist. CONS00ME (they are cute though)
  10. We make certain mental devices to protect ourselves sometimes. For example I could see you thinking that you are too intense for people. Therefore it is logical for you to distance yourself/limit interaction to want to annoy them less. Not that you are necessarily, I mean I'm never annoyed at least and if anyone is that would be their loss.
  11. Depends on how it's expired. If it's really expired it's a for certain do not use. However if it's labeled "best if used by" then you should be fairly okay. There was a website that had a guide on things like this but my internet search skills are failing me at the moment. I bookmarked it but I have about 900 of those now and most of that isn't sorted/labeled because a lot of those are ancient.
  12. Holy shit, that's cool. Though I'd prefer live action set 20 years on I'll take whatever I can get. That series was good and..... Oh shit oh fuck.... those bastards are going to pull a Star Wars Trek aren't they? Milk the franchise for all it's worth and completely fuck up the story in the process. At least "NuTrek" is somewhat good if you consider it's set in an alternate universe. Disney completely fucked Star Wars though and I am saltier than Crait about it. I'll give it a shot, but I don't hold high hopes for it. Been burned too many times now and I am so very tired.
  13. This should really be the new DGN night, even if it isn't in Detroit or even the country. I got back like two hours ago but I saw SO many people including but not limited to: @Serxera (he drove) @Raev @*Siren* @Msterbeau Okay that's like four confirmed anyway. There are a few others that I'm not sure whether or not they have accounts, and if they do then they haven't used them in forever, and if they don't then they need them. Even the people I didn't really know were pretty nice. Which brings me to also we need business cards to hand out to people and maybe stickers to put around places too. Finally the tunnel was pretty easy other than needing to pay the toll with credit. I'll definitely try to go back, even if I have to leave my firearms at home :( I need to invest in a hook cane or umbrella.
  14. You know I only complain because I care. :P (Also still not perfect, but much better.)
  15. This link is three months out of date. Please use this link instead, thanks. I will be there as usual running the awesome slideshow, hopefully without issues this time as it failed to work last time.
  16. It's great to see the event back here. Unfortunately I'm not making it this month due to my birthday thing being the same day. I was going to have it the next day but this is an easier day for @Serxera who is ever so gracious to host my shenanigans. The event will be running late though so y'all are welcome to show up after this too. Bobbi said she'll try if she feels up to it but I doubt it since it's a long drive back to Ohio.
  17. I do not, or at least not the way it's scaling. Though it might look good on a portrait oriented phone. As it it though it zooms in to fill the screen resulting in it looking too pixelated/blurry. It's exceptionally bad on my 4K monitor too. I (and I'm sure @TronRP) could tile it horizontally, but then the site would have to be set so it doesn't zoom the background.
  18. No, you should absolutely come back. We need people to tell the assholes when we're being assholes rather than just running away.
  19. I feel a little bad because they're saying he had another stroke. No one should have to suffer like that. It should have just killed him as fast as possible so he could be done with it and us with him.
