  • Dude is such a fucking kook. I'm so sick of this guy. He really is the worst product of reality TV.

  • Learn something. Anything. Learn to juggle. Get pretty good at yo-yo. Solve a Rubik's cube. By a random RPG and play it solo if you can't convince others to play with you. Learn math better than you know. Pick an instrument at random and learn that.

    And after you learn about whatever you choose, learn something else. Collect skills and knowledge.

  • Mine says it doesn't accept messages and to please text me if its important.

    I had one client that caused that. He'd call after work hours and leave seemingly endless messages about nothing almost daily. So I let my mailbox fill up and changed my outgoing message. Its been close to 4 years and my mailbox is still full of his rambling.

  • I'm that neighbor thats really, really into Halloween. My whole family is. We do a pretty big yard thing every year and this year we had the scene change every week to tell a bigger story. On Halloween handing out candy and goodies, everyone was stoked and wanted to stop and say how rad it was and how much fun it was to watch over the course of the month. Except one person. She just kept on going about how I should charge people to see it. Dude, first and foremost, I'm not going to make one of the few things I find true joy in doing another goddamned chore. Also, how the fuck would I keep people from just looking at my front yard? How do you expect me to manage that?

    One good thing came of it though, after her insistence again and again I told her the only practical way to charge admition would be to do an actual walk through haunted house in my back yard. So the neighbors and fam and I are going to do just that. But for free because fuck that. I might charge her a dollar though because I'm super petty.

  • You Don't Mess Around With Jim by Jim Croce isn't directly about him but does give good advice on treating this wardrobe with respect.

  • Kristofferson was saying it about Kieth but his quote (reportedly) was

    “You know what Waylon Jennings said about guys like him?” he whispered.

    I shook my head.

    “They’re doin’ to country music what pantyhose did to finger-fuckin’.”

    Jennings was (reportedly) talking about Brooks.

  • That's a tough call but probably Wierd Sisters slightly more. I do like the Watch books a lot, especially the later ones, but the Witches are something special. The three of them together just work on another level.

  • Meh. I didnt hate it but it kinda felt like this was just a bunch of rich kids trying to buy their way out and I couldn't root for any of them, there was no connection for me. It had some fun bits but it read like the author was writing a really descriptive summery of a movie he saw.

    Actually, the next book on my list is The Relic. I read that a million years ago and it left the same impression. If you dug Ruins, you might like that. It'll help if you're into the X Files.

  • I do a crappy little podcast with a cousin and some friends. Its like a book club really, but its fun. We take turns picking books. I mark them down on my list so I can keep track of them better and its easier to go back to find authors.

  • What didn't you like about it? I read it like 20years ago and remember basically liking it. This go around it didn't go as well. I wouldn't say I didnt like but, but I won't reread it again in 20 more years.

    Interesting recommendation. We did Under the Skin a few years ago and we all really enjoyed that.

  • Checking in here. I'm 53 and I can still do this. Quake too. Getting old doesn't mean the fun stops.

  • Love your name. Buddy of mine said if I was ever a magician my name would be The Great Sarcasmo.

  • Yeah, the holidays bring it out in me.

  • Oh dude, yes! And stabbed to death by a little girl at the end.

  • I helped win that.

  • About drinking- If you think you're talking normal, you're sluring. If you think you're sluring, you're not speaking human.

    From a keyboardist in a band- have a good time, all the time

    From Billy Idol - Too much is never enough (though I did have to unlearn this latter in life and get into treatment. Still, fun while it lasted)

  • Don't write anything down you don't want everyone to read.

  • Yeah, for movies its the Muppets no question. We're lucky enough to live near a movie theater that shows it every year. we all go on Xmas eve.

    There is a community theater near me that has a one man show of it. Its been done by the same guy for over a decade. He fell ill last year so his understudy is doing it now. Its fucking phenomenal. Just one dude in a black box theater. He does every line in the story with voices, minimal props, a few sound cues, and its simply magic.

    Me, my wife, and kids go every year to see both. I cry at each but in different places.
