Lurker > BLeeD90s

I appreciate all the responses! Most likely will get the LG one, but I want to look at Samsung before making my final decision. I do plan on using it for gaming and streaming movies/shows.

Idk about TVs or the hertz or anything like that. I just know I want an OLED. Ive never owned an OLED, so a budget one would be good to start out with. I was looking at reviews online and saw the LG B3/C3? series is good. Does anyone have recommendations on what they own?

I have 2. One older one younger. The older one is a bad person. I was an extremely shy, timid and calm kid growing up. Hed shove me into snow during the winter. When parents went out, hed use this creepy doll my mom owned to terrorize me. I was always scared and alert when my parents had to step out and it was just me and him. We got into a fight once and I locked myself in a bathroom to get away and hed be stomping every step pretending he was possessed claiming here comes Fortress in his possessed voice. I was scared shitless telling him to please stop and hed continue the act like see what you did to your brother.

Time skip to the early teen years and we grew apart. I never grew out of my super shy phase until I was about 18-19. Early high school years he pretended not to know me. I acknowledged him, but he never acknowledged me. Like I didnt exist. Eventually kids/teachers start asking if he/me have a brother in the school cuz theres another kid who looks just like you. He denied it and claimed I was his cousin and he told me to go along with that lie, so I did. I didnt have friends and I didnt have a brother. Im failing high school. No friends, no family, no one to talk to. I start skipping classes, too much that I get dropped from them. Come October my junior year and I drop out completely. There was nothing there for me or no one there for me.

Currently, as adults weve stopped talking. Hes done a hit and run and wanted me to take blame for it (I wasnt even in the car lol). We took in a small old corgi my uncle owned, but became physically unfit to care for him. He did NOT treat him well. Man, thinking on it nowwe had a dog named Yoshi as a kid and he wrapped his hands in towels and started BOXING her cuz she did diarrhea all over the floor. Fuck that guy for real. I wasnt expecting to type all of this shit, but hes such a piece of shit and always threatened if word got out that he was such a piece of shit, maybe thats why I typed it. Hes an alcoholic who emotionally abuses my mom now and thats a whole ass story I dont have time to type.

My younger brother I got along with until he became older and started living his own personal life (job, girlfriend, etc). Theres no beef between him and I.

I love it.

Chicken & Broccoli w/ white rice.
Sesame Chicken w/ Shrimp fried rice.
Sweet & Sour Chicken w/ Pork fried rice.

Those are my go tos. Whenever I feel special and that isnt often, Ill get chicken egg foo young.

Awesome! Is there any reputable stores that are taking preorders? Also! Are there any sites to see more pictures of the cards? Im interested in any FF7/8/9/10/10-2. I dont play mtg, but Im a huge FF fan and would love to have some of those cards.

Is there a release date?

Spontaneous snow day today! No work, so Ill get through a lot of these today.

Some of my personal favorites when I was first digging into the 70s/80s (maybe a little heavy on the 80s here)

Im currently up to here. I like a lot of what you posted btw! Anyone that recommended full albums, Im gonna have to wait on those til I have time. Thank you everyone that had recommendations so far. Ive been vibing to a lot of these and showing my gf and shes also been liking some lol. Good shit!

Bump to continue for the weekend!

So Im going to separate songs into 3 categories:

Song not listed = Not my taste/vibe
Song listed = Overall liked
Song listed w/ *** = Added to playlist

Tears for Fears - EWTRTW. Been knowing this song as a kid and been having it on my playlist! Its one of the very few songs I know of Tears for Fears, so Ill definitely check out that album when I have more time.
Blue Oyster Cult
Flying Nun Records. Got a couple songs or an album to start?
New Order Blue Monday Reminds me of the You Spin Me Round song lol.
Re-flex Politics of Dancing
Nena 99 Luftballoons ***
Alphaville Forever Young *** Think I heard this song in Napoleon Dynamite, but always liked it.
Eurythmics Sweet Dreams Another song I already had on my playlist. A banger.
Stevie Nicks & Don Henley Leather & Lace ***
Gordon Lightfoot Sundown
Nick Drake Pink Moon
Corey Hart Sunglasses At Night ***
Yellow Magic Orchestra Tong Poo *** The first instrumental song! I love this! For something that came out in 1978, this had to have sounded ahead of its time. Its nearing 50 years and sounds fresh.
Tower of Power So Very Hard to Go ***
The Isley Brothers For the Love of You *** Funk and Soul is just as good. I listen to a lot of hip hop so if something is sampled I always love going back to listen to the og.
Maze & Frankie Beverly Before I Let Go
The Gap Band Outstanding
Trio "Da Da Da" *** I was not expecting to like this, but once that guitar kicks in it sounds so good lol, mad catchy.

Im gonna end it here for now. I had to relisten to everything again to know which ones I liked lol. Regardless if your song isnt on here, I really appreciate your recommendations. Still got a lot to go. Its very fun for me to listen to and discover new music, so thanks!

Shotgunnova posted...

You should say which artists you (dis)liked so we can refine our suggestions.

Youre right, I just didnt wanna hurt anyones feelings if I disliked their suggestion lol. I guess Ill make a list of the songs I do like and go from there.

CE_gonna_CE posted...

Gonna go ahead and get some 70s YMO out there
https://youtu.be/2T7TXVtGGFc?si=VCvoqKziOVnPqlBu

Im just quoting this to keep tabs where Im at. Been very busy, but Im off today so going through a lot of these songs today! Some interesting and unique songs so far lol. Ive definitely heard of some of these before, just never knew the name of the artist/band. ^^This YMO joint is so good too.

Bump.

Ignore the bump, just dont want this getting purged.

Keeping this bumped for the weekend. Idk how long it takes before a topic purges.

Jeff_AKA_Snoopy posted...

What sort of education are you looking for? Just good songs from those decades? What the general sort of popular genres were? Themes, that sort of thing?

Just curious. ^_^

Hey! Just general bands/albums from those decades. Ive kinda been going back in time listening to music and watching movies from the past. Ill probably make another topic for the movies, cuz I know Im slacking hard lol. Recently watched the video for Staying Alive by the Beegees. Been loving it.

Thank you to everyone else with the recommendations! Im going to listen to all these, I really appreciate it. To show my lack of knowledge from the past, I only just listened to Purple Rain by Prince for the first time about a week ago.

Ive been going down the illest rabbit hole. You know that song Back in Black? Heard it all my life and only NOW I find out its AC/DC. What bands, albums, songs do I start with? Been listening to some Queen and Janis Joplin lately. Main genre I listen to is hip hop, but I love all types of music, just been really vibing out to 80s as of late.

I had this happen to me a few months back. Someone decided to treat themselves to lunch and dinner from Milwaukee lol. I called my bank for fraud, got my money back and a new card sent to me. I got this card memorized so hopefully nothing bad happens <.>

So I found out that One Piece cards are cheaper in Japanese, Ill buy those for the artwork/collection and if I ever decide to play I can just buy singles, win-win!

https://www.tcgplayer.com/ is what I used for MtG and almost never had problems using it for years(I think I've been using it since 2016?). The only bad experience I've had was exactly one seller in all that time sending me either a wrong card or one card from an order was missing, which they promptly fixed with no extra charge so I wouldn't leave a bad review. Just stick to reputable sellers with a shitton of good reviews/activity, or local one's if you recognize a LGS from your city/town.

TCGplayer is like eBay, but strictly cards? I dont mind buying a bit above MSRP, I just want to make sure I get nothing tampered with. Ill definitely check it out. Thank you!

Check their websites, its sports for me, but Target Walmart GameStop Scheels 5 Below Barnes and Noble Books a Million Best Buy Ace Hardware CVS Walgreens Hot Topic . to name a few, all have all types of cards. Check online, check stores.

GameStop only seems to sell individual graded cards, at least for One Piece. Walmart/Target doesnt have it in person and online its random sellers, not directly from the store. My local CVS/Walgreens dont carry them, but Best Buy and hot topic Ill have to scope out, thanks!

I want to collect One Piece cards, I gave up on Pokemon. I watched One Piece all of last year and became a huge fan. Target, Walmart or GameStop dont seem to carry them. Im kinda new to buying cards online and have heard of stories where people receive resealed product, itd be cool if that didnt happen to me lol.

Yep. Im paranoid so I thought I wouldnt wake up. Next thing you know, I wake up lol.

I couldve sworn they tried this recently and it never got passed. Id personally love it, I hope it goes through.

WingsOfGood posted...

Did your gamestop run out of pre-orders?
Or you meant you only want the set everyone wants which is Prismatic Evolutions?

Im honestly not sure. They only allow in person pre orders? I started collecting again around the pandemic. I was collecting sets, but then decided to just buy everything sealed. At least a booster box, ETB, the lane packs, etc. Basically I was trying to get 1 of everything for whatever set was out at the time. Id like to do it again, but not sure if its possible.

Aww man, that sucks. I was hoping I can start collecting again, I guess not.

Ive starved recently the past couple years. Was so hungry at times and was losing weight. Im in a better position now though, only hungry once in a while lol.

Good luck TC. I was unemployed for a very long time and was finally able to get work in September at a school doing kitchen work. I was also ubering and grubhubbing trying to get by. Theres always a light at the end of the tunnel, I wish you the best!

Idk if Im remembering correctly, but I couldve sworn I first knew him as Bsquare? Or something like that? Can anyone that knows confirm for me or am I tripping?

My bad, it was CSI lol

This was at the height of everyone online hating on Bieber so it got a lot meme usage >_> People made like 1 hour loops of him getting shot lol

Lmao, shitI forgot this existed.

Its so funny this topic was made cuz I was always wondering why we dont see exploding babies in movies. Is there a law that prevents this?

Yes! Im extremely lucid in my dream. When I have nightmares, my dream self starts yelling, which makes my real self wake up yelling from that bad dream.

Oh! Ive also been aware like hey Im dreaming now, and Ill start flying like Peter Pan just entering peoples houses from the second floor windows lol, its awesome!

If I was guaranteed the money, sure, but I dont trust the police to keep their word so no.

The delivery person couldve been banned for *insert reason here* and he created a new account with other info, using their siblings account, renting an account or what others have saidsafety.

Idc. Im just glad Tyson came out of it healthy.

It is a thing. Id report it if you care enough.

Bump so I can note some of this stuff later.

Ive read all comments and sorry I cant respond to you individually. If a higher deposit is required due to my credit I have no problem with that. I feel like my credit is the biggest hindrance now, my background check and all else will be good. Are sites like Zillow or apartments.com good to search? I feel like going around the neighborhood looking for for rent days are over.

I was always the I have the money, you do the lease guy cuz anxiety I guess. Instead of living with others, I wanna move out to an apartment with just me and my gf. Idk how to start though. We both work mornings/afternoons, so were not even home most of the day.

I know I gotta apply, but does it cost money to apply? To all of them?

My credit is shot, would anyone even take me?

I have money, more than enough for whatever security deposit and 1st month rent, can I offer an extra month rent or something to show Im good for it?

I notice a lot of places ask for the money I make to be 30x their rent or something like that, wtf?

Can anyone give me any advice at all? Its not my first time moving out, but my first time moving out with just me and my gf. Im mad stressed out lol I have til the end of December, time is moving pretty quick.

Can someone explain whats going on in basketball terms?

Alright! Just got a FG from the Eagles. The Watson bet is lost, but still an ok day overall. Now on to Sunday!

I like Kathy Bates, Misery is such a good movie lol.

theAteam posted...

That long pass put him right at 225

Just saw it, yes! Alright! Need Watson for 12 more yards. If each team could get a FG, itll be a decent day.

theAteam posted...

Love just needs like 32 yards. Think you want Eagles to score again so he has to air it out

Yep! Was just about to post. If Love could pass it to Watson, thatll help another bet of mine. Just need 25 total yards for Watson, he only has 7 now. Who are the WRs for the Packers? I thought Watson was top dog, hes barely seeing the ball.

Krojen posted...

2 bad teams on a bad field.

2 bad teams or is the defense non existent?

Damn 26-24 with still 9 minutes left in the 3rd? Might have to catch the 4th quarter.

Just need each team to score a FG and another bet hits. Up to Saquon and Love for my previous bet, Im confident it hits though.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/3/343c8bb3.png

This hitting?

Awesome! GB TD! Just need a FG from the Eagles to keep the bet alive. I keep seeing shit talked about the field. How bad is it?

Not watching the game, but scoping out my bets. Saquon with a TD! Need him for 50 rushing yards. Need each team to get a TD and FG each half as well, so far its looking ok.
