  1. Best arcade game?  I am torn but I think Mortal Kombat beats out Gauntlet and Cyberball.

      TMNT was my all-time favorite, but in the early 90s, my local arcade replaced the TMNT cabinet with a badass X-Men game, six players could play at once, each with a different mutant. That game was awesome.

  2. Just put in my notice at my job a month in advance. Told by my boss that I should have trusted them more and told them sooner. Also told by my boss I might lose my benefits because I'm only part time during the summer. Take home message: Don't notify employer in advance that you're leaving, just stop showing up. What BS.

      Hmph...should have trusted them more? Sounds like they proved that you shouldn't trust anybody.

  3. Frost starts off with a movie reference...what movie did he reference???  Anyone?

  4. Not exactly the kind of thing Zac Taylor wants for his first season... https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27053888/bengals-top-pick-williams-likely-season

  5. Over/Under 8.5 regular season win total?

  6. Do you ever notice when you're reaching a new posting milestone and you get kind of excited and start paying attention to your post count only to then totally forget and realize you surpassed the milestone without acknowledging it in any way?

    Me either. #13000posts

  7. How many of you work at a place where you and co-workers hit up happy hour on Friday after work?

      The firm I worked for in my mid-20s had a few other people in the same age group as me in my mid-20. Happy Hours were regular, and a lot of fun. A few years later, tied down with kids' and busy family schedules, those sorts of events don't happen. Most social events now are late nights at a friend's house (no more bars, we outgrew that scene), after kids are put to bed of course, or weekend family barbecues. Happy Hours are but a memory of yesteryear.

      I bet George Lucas wishes he still owned Star Wars so he could edit a force ghost of Chewie into the end of Return of the Jedi.

  8. What is a realistic time frame for movie spoilers? How long after a movie is released is it OK to talk openly about specific plot points without being a jerk?

  9. Anyone use Dollar Shave Club?

      I use the 4-blade and it works great. I tried the 6 blade cartridge for a while, which also has a single blade on the other side for precision trimming, but I kept cutting myself with the damn thing, and the six blades were a bit much for my delicate, sensitive baby-soft skin.

      I use it: the razors are a good deal. They keep trying to sell other overpriced hygiene/bathroom items but I only stick to the razors.

  11. #TriggeredTuesday having a tire fixed/replaced this morning. There are six chairs in the lobby, separated 3 and 3. The two people who were here before me took the middle chairs.

  12. I'm making pancakes,  just so I have a reason to put syrup in a empty wine bottle.

      You know what, Tony? Being a loser doesn't automatically make one sad. So there! Now have a glass of wine and relax. (and can I have the bottle when you are done?)

      This is all my fault, but at least I can now build a new deck from recycled wine bottles.

  14. It's a #TriggeredTuesday: I hate when people in my building get off on the second floor, instead of the first, to go outside through the rear entrance. Most of them do it to smoke. If you get off on the second floor, you have to walk down 10 steps. If you get off on the first floor, you have to walk up 10 steps. Stop being an inconvenience and just get off on the first floor with the rest of us, jerks.

  15. How many junk emails do you average at your primary email address on a daily basis?

      If you try the CBD gummies and the keto diet for a while, you might feel better and lose some weight. Then more people will be interested in your naked photos. Then you will have more sexual opportunities, so the enhancement/performance supps will come in handy. There is a lot of progress to be made here, and it sounds like you are blatantly disregarding these wonderful opportunities. I'll be happy to tell you some more if you send some bitcoin to me in Nigeria.

  16. How do you like your eggs?

    1. Ulty

      Ulty

      Most mornings, I'll make some fried eggs for myself: put them in a hot pan with some S&P, put a lid on it so the tops get steamed. No flipping necessary. Done in a couple minutes, super easy. I fold a pretty good omelet as well, but on the weekends when I have more time.

  18. Why is everyone so damn pissy today, yeesh.  Take a few days away from the board and yall are a bunch of uptight negative Nancy's.

  19. Would any one of you buy a Tesla? They look intriguing but I think they’re overpriced

    1. Ulty

      Ulty

      @Red Five I thought that was a requirement? Every Tesla I've ever seen has some sort of vanity plate of that sort. It is a very douchey habit.

  20. So, Weezer dropped an album full of covers, and I don't hate it? Start here:

      That's not bad at all, BB, thanks for exposing me to this. Reminds me somewhat of the rock covers that Johnny Cash released near the end of his life.

      @B.B. Hemingway Never heard of Sturgill Simpson so looked him up. Not a fan of country but the way he did "The Promise" is really well done, and I agree that is a great way to put your own twist on a cover.

      You want a good cover of Billie Jean in a different style? Check out Chris Cornell's version.

      Ugh. Used to be a huuuuge Weezer fan back in the day, but this rendition of No Scrubs is awful. I haven't heard anything from them that is really worthwhile in more than a decade. I'll give these covers a chance but do not have high hopes.
