| Topic | Would Carlito spit in US President Big Donald Trump's face? |
| ArchiePeck 01/02/20 5:13:42 AM #11 | I feel like Donald Trump desperately wants to be cool. So much of what he does and says is to win the approval of his peers. I'd still like to see Carlito do the apple gimmick though. |
| Topic | I saw The Irishman a few days ago. |
| ArchiePeck 01/02/20 5:11:36 AM #10 | Phantom_Nook posted... I need to get on that. That 3.5 hours is intimidating. There was a viral method of splitting into a miniseries when it came out. I watched it this way and it was perfect! https://twitter.com/dunerfors/status/1200058032958459906?s=09 |
| Topic | Ever sleep with white noise? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 5:51:06 PM #19 | Relaxio is a really nice phone app that lets you blend a large variety of noises from wind to water to a crackling camp fire. |
| Topic | You dudes have to work today? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 5:11:28 PM #8 | First and second tend to be a holiday here in Scotland for most workers, though retail workers and other service staff (fast food etc) quite often work the second. |
| Topic | How did Harry Potter get his glasses? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 4:45:16 PM #2 | Why can't Professor Xavier use telekinesis to power his legs? |
| Topic | Without looking it up, do you know who won the Hundred Year's War? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 4:35:04 PM #4 | It wasn't the apostrophe police, anyway... |
| Topic | It's illegal to deny The Holocaust in the UK? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 4:34:25 PM #53 | TC quite rightfully getting pwned left, right and center here LMAO Like, if you're going to try and troll at least get your base information right... |
| Topic | It doesn't feel or look that different in 2020 than it did in 2005 or 6 |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 4:25:38 PM #10 | Smartphones, media streaming, hairstyles, facial hair (like, no-one had a beard when I was at college), like even just our games consoles being connected online or most people not actually using HDTV by default yet... |
| Topic | This year I plan to grab life by the pussy |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 3:52:14 PM #5 | Purely posted... I'm due it, believe me. All the health problems I've been dealing with, you have no idea. You're not. No-one is. I hope you get one, but YOU need to make it happen. If it hasn't been happening yet for you then you've got to identify what you need to change and put in the hard work. The universe won't "do you a favor". |
| Topic | glassdoor website (job search) is a joke, right? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 3:44:11 PM #2 | I thought it was a site for reviews of workplaces, isn't it? |
| Topic | This year I plan to grab life by the pussy |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 3:42:19 PM #2 | You're not "due" a good year. You have to go and make it happen! Life doesn't meet anyone halfway. |
| Topic | Would you ever spend $1,000+ on a phone? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 1:59:32 PM #15 | I never pay money upfront for my phone it's just financed into an 18 month plan (this is quite common in the UK). That said, my S10 has the power of a decent PC (it can run Gamecube games perfectly fine, I'm playing Paper Mario just now) and is a high definition video camera and a GPS for my car and countless other things so the upfront value is hardly ridiculous when you think about it... |
| Topic | Unsolved disappearances creep me out. |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 1:49:47 PM #11 | Unresolved Mysteries on reddit is a fantastic group for in-depth writeups of historical missing person cases and unsolved murderers etc. |
| Topic | Mods have this thing about Greta Thunberg. They really do. |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 1:48:42 PM #3 | YOU really have some sort of triggered issue about her. That is all that is happening here. |
| Topic | I feel like Serena Williams doesn't get enough recognition |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 1:24:39 PM #5 | Hot white girl with charisma and star power in "more bankable to western sponsors" shocker! Anna Kournikova made MILLIONS in the early 00s, even having her own PlayStation tennis game, despite never being a top tier player. Star power > achievements if we're talking overall money making possibilities. |
| Topic | 1st time I made a girl's legs shake from an orgasm O_o |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 12:59:22 PM #6 | That can often be accompanied by a tiny little squirt into your mouth, if it's from oral. They never teach that in school either! |
| Topic | Every 10/10 Game In GameSpot's History, how many of dese have you played? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 12:43:59 PM #10 | Almost all of them, pleasingly. Only missing three and Disco Elysium is on my to do list! |
| Topic | First video game that you will play in 2020? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 6:30:56 AM #13 | I'm strongly tempted to put one of the Paper Mario games on my phone to play through over the next week or two. |
| Topic | Pope slaps overzealous woman's hand |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 6:07:16 AM #28 | brestugo posted... Black Pope Iseem would have been rougher with her. Oh man, he'd have left a crime scene behind... |
| Topic | Do you guys usually play your Switches via handheld or TV? |
| ArchiePeck 01/01/20 5:25:34 AM #5 | On a related note, what's the current situation with the drifting issue. Is it still affecting new models or do Nintendo seem to have fixed it? |
| Topic | This RAW has got to be the lowest rated RAW of all time. |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 4:11:17 PM #17 | The soap opera stuff is what draws today. Not manlet main event wrestlers LOL |
| Topic | Are any of you going to a new year's eve party? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 3:35:28 PM #8 | Yeah but just a small house party with friends, not an actual ticketed nightclub event or anything. |
| Topic | Why is Reddit a juggernaut online but virtually unknown outside the internet? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 3:34:22 PM #6 | I think most people consider it by far the biggest message board site. Even people that only use social media like Facebook or Instagram still know they would use reddit to get discussion on a specific or specialist thing. |
| Topic | Do you slap your wife's/gf's ass? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 3:09:51 PM #23 | Mike Xtreme posted... All the time |
| Topic | What video games could be made into a good flim? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 3:04:28 PM #18 | Metroid Prime? |
| Topic | Is it weird and unusual to not have any social media? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 3:03:47 PM #9 | Most people have at least one. But if you don't, then you don't! A guy in my basketball team just isn't interested in it, he stays in touch with old school friends through his wife's Facebook if he needs to. |
| Topic | US Embassy in Iraq under attack by rioting mob |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 7:53:55 AM #13 | I mean, it's not like we completely fucked up their lives nearly twenty years ago based on a lie and then largely left them at the mercy of Islamic State as a replacement. What could they be angry at America about? |
| Topic | Is the thousand year door much better then 64? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 6:32:41 AM #17 | I honestly have them about equal. TYD probably is technically the better game but 64 has the nostalgia for me. |
| Topic | Archie, is there some reason you troll me so often? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 6:24:18 AM #2 | Sometimes people need put in their place when they try and act superior to others ;-) You'll always get a high five for your love of the Pikmin games, though! |
| Topic | Hilter, Jeff Bezos, Putin, Kruschev, and Nixon have been Time Person of the Year |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 6:13:12 AM #3 | If you had better reading comprehension you'd understand, like everyone else, that it's about the most noteworthy people - not necessarily the "best" in a moral sense. |
| Topic | Do you feel bad for people who can't have fun without drinking alcohol? |
| ArchiePeck 12/31/19 6:10:09 AM #2 | Eh, not really. As long as they ARE having fun then they're probably doing better than people that spend their time judging others lives LOL |
| Topic | Do you think you'll have sex this week |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 5:17:18 PM #12 | Yes. With my wife. |
| Topic | Playing through DK64 |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 5:16:50 PM #11 | It becomes a hateful slog that is devoid of entertainment and instead more of a burden. |
| Topic | Why is it okay to make fun of short people? |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 5:15:50 PM #4 | Because they can't reach the slot in the box to post a complaint letter back. |
| Topic | In Baltimore, MD for a wedding. It's dirty. |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 4:11:41 PM #3 | Lot of drug problems... |
| Topic | In your opinion, are you "good with money?" |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 3:52:42 PM #7 | MC_BatCommander posted... Yep. My wife and I live well within our means. We can afford nice vacations and our only debt is the mortgage. We both have a lot of disposable income and are paying extra on our mortgage towards the principal. This is exactly my wife and I also. Just don't buy things you don't have the money for! |
| Topic | UK school forces 6 year olds to write gay love letters |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 3:14:06 PM #22 | LiteCoin posted... I didnt have a creative writing course until college, my public schooling was pretty awful lolHuh, oh well. We were encouraged in English classes to do things like write diary entries as if we were the opposite sex and things like that. Good for the imagination and learning different writing skills I think. |
| Topic | 1st female LCS player Maria "Remilia" Creveling dies at 24 |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 3:10:38 PM #8 | WrkHrdPlayHrdr posted... 24 year olds very very very very very rarely just die while sleeping. Unfortunately it can also happen. Guy I went to college with just randomly had a brain aneurysm in his sleep. Was completely healthy, clean living guy other than a social drinker at occasions. His fiancee thought he had turned the alarm off to get extra sleep, she went upstairs to tell him he was going to be late for work and realised he had gone. |
| Topic | If you ever wanted to become a manager at your work, how did you go about it? |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 3:08:18 PM #6 | Eventually an opening came up and I felt I had enough experience and knowledge to apply for it. Thankfully, they agreed! |
| Topic | UK school forces 6 year olds to write gay love letters |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 2:39:11 PM #9 | Did none of you do creative writing exercises at school? |
| Topic | Do americans reallly bring guns to church |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 2:32:08 PM #5 | Evidently some do, yes. |
| Topic | I am a white heterosexual cisgender male |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 2:28:32 PM #19 | You should be aware of your privilege when considering the problems of others. |
| Topic | Did you ever use the steering wheel for video games? |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 2:00:24 PM #3 | I had the Sega Saturn one and it was legit great for Daytona and Sega Rally. Couldn't replicate the analogue input on the digital controllers that were standard at the time. |
| Topic | 'Gonna try online dating, but I have to work out and become more attractive. ... |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 1:52:23 PM #5 | Just go outside and do things that involve socialising FFS. |
| Topic | I forgot how everyone in Paper Mario wants to fuck him >_> |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 12:31:30 PM #10 | Dreepapult posted... On a phone? Holy crap. Yeah. I like to play through old GBA/N64/DS rpgs and strategy games on my phone as well. I wouldn't want to play an action game on a touchscreen virtual controller but it's absolutely fine for those sort of games. Playing the DS Advance Wars games just now. |
| Topic | 2020 will be a good year for books,movies,TV Shows ect. |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 12:08:26 PM #2 | Every year is a good year. There is always talented people out there making great stuff. |
| Topic | Remember VR? ...in the 90s! |
| ArchiePeck 12/30/19 11:42:03 AM #3 | I think the people that still shit on VR today because they are afraid of change still assume it's like this. |
