So when the economy took a shit, school shootings ramped up, and media really started to learn that divisive stories brought them more money....nah.

Things started going down hill after 9/11 and I feel like somewhere around 2010ish is when it started getting worse exponentially.

I'm just glad I'm not a Kyle. Monster tastes like garbage and I hate patching drywall.

I tried trading my entire collection for one and the other kid said no :(

I've had bird dog peanut butter whiskey and enjoyed it. Not much of a whiskey drinker but I keep a bottle around for the occasional shot.

3-5 per year seems pretty average for me. Usually to visit family. Only one planned "actual" vacation that isn't focused around going to see family.

Leave your retirement account in safe index funds and just set it up for recurring consistent payments. Set it and forget it.

Then have a separate account if you want to gamble on riskier stuff. But for your own sanity and stability, I still like having my "play" account about 50/50 split between index funds and individual investments. Just helps to add some stability.

It'd be hypocritical not to since Ukraine got rid of its nuclear weapons on the condition that we'd always defend their sovereignty. If we fail to its just another obvious red flag to weaker nations that they need nuclear programs.

No one actually expects NATO to follow through on their promises. They sit back and do nothing, hoping the US will take action and all the blame when the fallout comes.

I bought the first xbox exclusively for halo. Realized I liked the controller way more than PS and I wasn't that concerned about most PS exclusives so I've only bought xbox since then.

We don't admit to listening to PKA in public. You trying to get canceled or something?

Desk Duty for trying to prevent a cop from hurting a minority. However, if this cop had killed that minority hed be getting a parade. This is the country we live in.

You may need to read the story again....

Never tested. I have to assume I've had it and was just asymptomatic because I'm constantly around different people for my job. I think almost everyone in my company has had it at one point. I don't think I've taken a single sick day since covid started either.

It's their job to argue on behalf of the player in basically every scenario. No different than a defense lawyer.

Home Improvement

I just bought a gaming laptop about a month ago, still getting used to M&K. I've found that exploring different genres is pretty vital. I'd say single player RPG's or things where you can turn down the difficulty and just get used to moving and finding keys will help. I've also been playing a lot of valorant and seen my aim get a lot better pretty quickly. I still struggle with finding the keys on games that have a ton of bindings....escape from tarkov is like torture.

For me so far, I've been playing new world, valorant, dota 2, and a random assorment of free to play games just to try new stuff.

I live out in the middle of nowhere. The other day I heard some loud noises and was initially concerned because I didn't know what it was. Once I went outside and realized it was just someone shooting, I felt more comfortable. Nothing wrong with someone just doing a little target shooting or sighting in their gun.

I really enjoy it. PVP can be frustrating because of lag and shitty servers, but PVE and exploration are still great. Considering how often it goes on sale, its undeniably worth it if you're even remotely a fan of the elder scrolls. Even if you're not a huge fan of TES, I still think its worth trying out for anyone looking for a new MMO to play.

Great grandfather was 96 when he passed. My great grandmother is either 96 or 97 now, I honestly don't know.

I'm curious to see which set of genetics win out because my mom's side almost all lives to 85+ where as my dad's side, all the men seem to drop by 72, even if they seem healthy and active.

Coffee with a couple shots of whiskey in it.

in no particular order. Tried to grab a bit from different eras/platforms

I'm having Irish coffee because I'm an old man and can't hardly stay up till midnight anymore....also Tarkov.

Near the border so you can leave....

Also Indianapolis actually isn't that bad.

I live in a more rural area where the only thing in that price range is a plot of 100 acres of farm land/woods. About 45 minutes away there's a nice 2500 sqft house sitting on 60 acres with a private pond, and enormous pole barn set up for horse stables. Looks like it could easily be turned into a nice garage/workshop if you're not into horses.

Also about 45 minutes away is a nice looking Mcmansion, 6,000 sqft, 7 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 3 car garage, pool, etc. on 6 acres

I dont consider it cheese.

and neither do they. Kraft litterally isnt allowed to call their slices cheese, its cheese product.

I know the feeling. When I started at this company we had 7-8 service techs who knew what they were doing, then a couple of young guys as helpers or could at least run basic service calls on their own. Now 3/4 of the company is tied up in new construction only leaving 4 of us to run service calls and last week two of the guys tested positive for Covid so its been a week straight of me and one other guy running non stop.

First job was Burger King. It kind of sucked but its not the worst thing in the world. My next job was sit down restaurant and I wouldnt say the work was any better, I was still grilling food in a kitchen. However, a few of my friends from school also worked there so it made things much more enjoyable.plus flirting with the waitresses was a nice bonus I hadnt considered before I started there.

I think the other people you work with really make or break just how enjoyable/hateful those jobs are.
