Topic | How do you determine a career to seek if you've lost interest in everything |
kukukupo 11/26/20 4:56:13 PM #17 | If you have a math degree (did you finish?) look into a LAMP program (Licensure and Masters Program). Usually they are 1 year or 1 1/2 year degrees for people who want to teach but don't have a teaching degree. Teaching doesn't pay the greatest - but a math teacher can find work ANYWHERE they live, and you get all the holidays off. |
Topic | quitting a job without another one lined up |
kukukupo 11/24/20 7:03:23 AM #14 | Yes, a couple of times. It didn't work out very well at all the first time I did it. The last couple were no big deal, I had another job lined up quickly. Keep in mind, my field is in high demand. |

Topic | JRPGs were a mistake |
kukukupo 11/20/20 6:16:22 PM #25 | zebatov posted... Do they still make proper JRPGs, or are they all action/adventure with RPG elements (Ie: levelling)? Octopath has been the only great one apart from Dragon Quest in the last decade or so. |
Topic | Scienists and Astromoners may have found 'Planet X' past Pluto... |
kukukupo 11/20/20 6:14:56 PM #20 | Planet X as in planet 10 as in PLUTO IS STILL A PLANET. |
Topic | Who is the better president? Trump or Bush |
kukukupo 11/18/20 2:44:24 PM #36 | I love George bush man, he's a good man, decent. He's not a liar, crook, murderer or anything like that. It was good to get the homicide out of the Whitehouse and get a fresh start. |
Topic | Philly shutting down again. |
kukukupo 11/18/20 2:40:12 PM #11 | JOExHIGASHI posted... Masks shouldn't be controversial. Surgeons wear masks all the time so it should pretty apparent they are useful. And when did going around spreading disease become so acceptable? People used to excuse themselves from events and refuse to share food when they had a slight cold. The problem was early on the CDC (I think CDC - can't remember which exact organization) said the masks were useless and didn't provide protection. I think what they meant to say was that the masks don't protect YOU, they protect others from getting the infection. Then they came back a month later and said masks should be mandatory. Anyone with any reading comprehension shouldn't have an issue with what was originally said - but you know how it is these days. |
Topic | recommend me a good ass movie |
kukukupo 11/17/20 8:25:27 PM #5 | Hubie Halloween (just kidding - that movie sucks) |
Topic | Anyone quit their job due to rona stress? |
kukukupo 11/17/20 10:46:23 AM #3 | I'm close. I've actually been on leave for a while, but I have to go back full time in a few weeks. I was in the office the other day to pick something up and there was zero social distancing, no one wearing masks, etc. If they don't let me continue to work from home, I'll probably walk. |
Topic | Pizza hut is disgusting |
kukukupo 11/16/20 2:54:57 PM #27 | I used to absolutely love Pizza Hut, but they just aren't what they used to be. My general observation on Pizza hut has been this: If they have the stand-alone store, still shaped like Pizza hut that offers dine in (probably not anymore due to covid) and a pizza buffet - their pan pizza is still great. If it is a pickup/delivery only store in a strip mall, it is awful (even the pan pizza!) |
Topic | What are some good single player RPGs on the Switch? |
kukukupo 11/16/20 12:53:47 PM #11 | Octopath traveer is the best one. Dragon Quest XI is a close second. |
Topic | Pizza hut is disgusting |
kukukupo 11/16/20 7:32:53 AM #17 | Metalsonic66 posted... Pizza Hut is way better than Domino's and Papa John's I used to agree. But it isn't anymore. I won't buy pizza hut anymore at all. |

kukukupo 11/07/20 7:37:17 PM #4 | I did years ago. Haven't in 10 years or so. |

kukukupo 11/07/20 5:35:36 PM #4 | The exact opposite is true in my experience. |

kukukupo 11/06/20 5:41:34 PM #12 | All you have to do is understand history to see why it is better than any other form of government so far. |
Topic | Biden won |
kukukupo 11/04/20 10:45:40 AM #13 | This isn't going to be over for weeks or possibly months yet. It will be 2000 all over again - but probably worse. |
Topic | Does anyone remember the GBC game Magi-Nation? |
kukukupo 11/03/20 8:36:39 PM #22 | Yep, I owned it. I don't remember much about it - but I think it was a chrono-trigger clone? (EDIT: Nope - not the game I was thinking of) |
Topic | What are you (stress) eating tonight? |
kukukupo 11/03/20 8:16:11 PM #17 | Zangulus posted... I dont even fucking know. I just drove 5 hours back home to take my wife to the doctor and Im currently annoyed outside in the cold because they wont let visitors in the building. Im not a fucking visitor. My wife literally cant talk and has a hard time remembering some things. Im her fucking medical advocate. My wife just went through this with me several months ago. For several days, she just had to sit at home and wait. Fortunately, I had my phone and we could text/talk back and forth. |

Topic | Working from home or an office |
kukukupo 11/03/20 3:52:38 PM #10 | Working from home is ok. I'm really breaking the rules, because the computer they gave me for my job is total garbage. I only use it to transfer files via the office VPN and I use my own PC for work-related things because it is 20x's better. I like not having the commute. |
Topic | Arvs not voting Arv isn't apart of the system |
kukukupo 11/03/20 3:43:54 PM #2 | I vote mostly for local issues. When it comes to national politics, I almost always vote 3rd party because the main two choices are garbage. |
Topic | Election Night in America |
kukukupo 11/03/20 3:39:55 PM #13 | This election won't be done for another few months, unfortunately. |
Topic | Who is a television/movie star that you find attractive? |
kukukupo 11/03/20 1:12:32 PM #21 | There aren't any. I can't separate physical beauty from personality. I don't know any of them, so I don't really find any of them attractive. And before anyone asks, I have only dated one woman I didn't know in my life and it didn't work out well. I'm also super fun at parties. |
Topic | Today we find out how smart and informed Americans are. |
kukukupo 11/03/20 12:00:29 PM #5 | So, let me guess. Smart if your team wins, dumb if the other team wins. |
Topic | Thank god |
kukukupo 11/02/20 10:44:48 AM #6 | Far-Queue posted... FYI regardless of the outcome we're gonna be hearing about this shit all the way through the inauguration Yes, I realize it will be a LONG winter between COVID and both sides will be unwilling to concede the election. At this point, I just want to stop receiving 20 adds in my mailbox and seeing the political ads plastered everywhere. |
Topic | Remember when you thought the N64 was getting an awesome RPG.. |
kukukupo 11/02/20 10:21:49 AM #18 | N64 was pretty disappointing for RPGS. Unfortunately, so was the Playstation. The biggest bomb I can recall was Chrono Cross. What an utter disappointment. |
Topic | I've never heard a good argument for the electoral college. |
kukukupo 11/02/20 10:18:34 AM #142 | adjl posted... Why should someone in Montana decide how someone in NY/LA lives? That's not an invalid point, but it goes both ways, and in fact makes even less sense this way because you can no longer justify it by saying you're making more people happy than the alternative. The electoral college does not and cannot solve that issue, it can only make it so you get a roughly 50/50 split in which way it goes so that each camp gets a "fair" turn. That is how things already happen. You literally just described the US government system. The electoral college ensures that 2 cities don't dictate the federal government. I don't get why this is so hard for people to understand. |
Topic | Thank god |
kukukupo 11/02/20 10:16:09 AM #1 | Thank God tomorrow is election day. I'm sick of the ads, I'm sick of Trump supporters and I'm sick of Biden supporters. Fuck you all. |
Topic | Can any "real" pianists check this song I wrote out? |
kukukupo 11/02/20 8:37:32 AM #3 | Sounds a little 'busy' to me personally. The hardest part about piano is that it can do everything, and it doesn't need to. It has to play with whatever is with it. No bass guitar? Play the bass notes. No horn section? Play the horn section's parts. No drums? Play more rhythmically. I'd try seeing if you can sustain some chords in the right hand if you want to keep the moving bass or add some more half/whole notes in the bass line. Without drums, I think it would work as written, but with the beat driving, I don't think you need all of the movement. |
Topic | I've never heard a good argument for the electoral college. |
kukukupo 11/02/20 7:45:44 AM #126 | Clench281 posted... I'm sure the two previous posters, being champions of giving a voice of representation to small areas, would strongly support the addition of DC and Puerto Rico as US sates, complete with electoral college and senate representation. I have no issue with Puerto Rico. I honestly thought it would be a state by this point, but if my memory serves, they voted to not be a state. Has something hanged recently? |
Topic | I've never heard a good argument for the electoral college. |
kukukupo 11/02/20 7:33:36 AM #123 | SkynyrdRocker posted... It's not. Why should someone's vote cost less because they live in LA or NY. Why should someone who lives in NY/LA decide how someone in Montana lives? The two aren't comparable. The EC works just fine. |
Topic | Voting |
kukukupo 10/28/20 12:47:42 PM #10 | In person. Not sure if I will vote for president or not - I don't really see a difference between the two candidates - but I'm definitely voting local. |
Topic | Amy Coney Barrett got confirmed |
kukukupo 10/27/20 2:59:09 PM #120 | BlackScythe0 posted... Then you're not going to complain about what democrats do if they get the numbers with the justification republicans just game them? If they get the numbers in the senate and congress to be able to add to the court, then no, I wouldn't have a problem with it. There were enough people elected to make that happen. That is how government works. |
Topic | Amy Coney Barrett got confirmed |
kukukupo 10/27/20 1:47:22 PM #84 | No real issue here to me. The government is working as it should. Republicans had the power to prevent the nomination of Merrick. If Democrats had the same numbers this time to stop Barrett, I'd be ok with it. |
Topic | Efficient unethical ways to save money |
kukukupo 10/27/20 12:33:22 PM #14 | I don't think I've paid for any video service for the last few years but I still watch everything if you catch my drift. . . |
Topic | Do you get annual flu vaccinations to protect your community? |
kukukupo 10/27/20 12:27:58 PM #85 | I got the flu shot once in the last 20 years. That year I had the flu. It is the only time I've had the flu in over 20 years. I know - blah blah anecdotal evidence blah blah - but I will never get the flu shot again. |
