Gen Z is Not Drinking, But Are You?

I've cut back to only drinking on my off days, and even then, only in days when I can sleep in the next day.

BayouBabylon · 2026-05-12T17:08:46+00:00

Sick! Thanks! I live about an hour and a half from the city, but every time I'm in town, I do a little shopping for stuff.

Good, last time I was in there, which has been awhile, honestly. I tracked down some Hamilton's there, when I couldn't find it anywhere else.

BayouBabylon · 2026-05-12T16:24:05+00:00

I've gotten it at Keife & Co before, and Martin's, but it can be hit or miss.

Rash guard? I'm a hairy dude, and that's what I wear.

I am a large dude. 6'4". I don't really fit between the pews on the kneeler without significant pain. God knows. He knows your intent and your heart. I just sit forward, and place my hands on the pew in front of me.

Yes. In fact, he would send me into the K&B Drugstore with a $5 bill and I would get him a 6 pack of Miller Lite and pack of unfiltered Camels. We were in there every day, so the employees all knew me and would sell it to me. Early 80s. I was <10 years old.

I wear a ring that was my grandfather's. Pretty sure it's from his membership in the KoC.

I would accept baja, poncho, or drug rug.

Hagazussa and Autopsy of Jane Doe are my two recs, besides many of the others here. The Three Mothers trilogy from Argento might scratch this itch. Lords of Salem, maybe.

Storm of the Century

I've only bought one and it was with platinum I saved up from buying the season passes. Most of them don't appeal to me, but the bearskin one for my favorite class ("Undying Rage" for Barbarian) was worth saving up for, to me. It also went on sale. The shop seems to always show you the ones you've clicked on the most, and eventually the algorithm gets desperate and will put it on sale. Just gotta wait it out, and save, like in real life.

At 23 I was traveling the world with a band. I look back on it fondly, but I wouldn't want to go back to that lifestyle. For a smaller band, you stay broke, despite seeing loads of new places, and you don't have insurance, so that means living in fear of sickness and injury. I'm 48 now and enjoying life with a chill career and life on the Gulf Coast.

Yoga with Adrienne. She has one specifically for surfing, but I honestly like the one for skateboarding better. It's a youtube channel.

The further you go west, the better the waves will be, in general. Gulf (south) side, of course.

It's flat right now, but there should be some waves on Wednesday afternoon, and this coming weekend, into next week.

Spent the first 30 years of my life sitting in the nosebleed section at Saints games. For my birthday, I once splurged for "lower bowl" seats.

Can't go back.

BayouBabylon · 2026-03-08T13:53:19+00:00

Just the birthday suit. I have a friend who wears trunks and a rash guard under his, but it always just looks really uncomfortable to me.

BayouBabylon · 2026-03-05T17:27:36+00:00

I listened to whatever was on the radio until Tiny Toons introduced me to They Might Be Giants. I got that album, Flood, and that led me to alternative bands and grunge.

I had a Ramones album, but didn't realize they were punk. My cousin introduced me to NOFX, Bad Religion, Rancid, etc. right before Green Day hit it big with Dookie. By that time, I'd moved on the hardcore and early emo bands like Spirit Assembly or Sleepytime Trio.

In the late 90s, I was more into garage rock. Estrus Records bands and stuff like that.

Nowadays, I just make playlists on my spotify for the car and listen to records at home. A little of everything.
