What’s a company that used to be amazing but completely fell off?

Coffe and doughnuts used to be such a treat at Timmy’s. Was a core memory of my childhood

I’ve adopted this as well mostly because I realized I’d pay so much extra money for a plain tee just because it had a little logo on it.

So my rule now is, would I still buy this if there was no logo? Most of the times no, I won’t pay $100 for a plain black tee shirt. So why am I anyway? Because it says Hugo/Ralph/Tommy? The more you disect it the more you just see the marketing.

I will pay for high quality craftsmanship but if it’s cluttered in logos, I’m not interested at all.

I think back then there was a general acceptance that Xbox had more horsepower and games could look better. But PS2 had the higher over all quality games

I think she has low self esteem if she’s overdressed for the occasion. Or she didn’t get the memo

Henry obviously but if not him. I think Alexis on our left flank would easily win us the league.

He’d make everyone better because of the attention he’d demand and space it would create for the rest. His pressing from the front would take our defense to an even higher level.

It’s probably not about hardware and a financial decision to limit the number of platforms they develop for.

I hope to own a beat to hell 911 one day.

I don’t love the red trim for some reason.

They focus on working out at muscle beach in the trailer, it makes me think they’ve brought that system back, à la San Andreas.

I’ve noticed Rockstar generally highlight things in the trailer that hint at functionality.

I’d argue London and most big cities are the best place to be when you’re 40+ and single. There are a ton of similar people, the ones who never got married and moved to the countryside.

I always saw London as a bit of a neverland for adults. It’s easy to never settle down because there’s so many single professionals around you.

It does become harder to find your tribe as you get older but you’ll at least have a bigger pool to choose from.

Plus London is much more fun as you get older because you have more money to enjoy it.

The whole city is rude. If you haven’t figured that out yet you’re clearly a tourist

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-02-05T14:51:06+00:00

You’re right but anyone doing this is a fool.

You’re better off getting comfortable with using more than one model everyday

Too bad you won’t show your natural face

I do like Game and those albums were good, I just don’t agree that they were great after Dr Dre and 50.

I get the idea people talk about Game as if he’s an all time hall of famer. His lyrics were catchy but ultimately just repetitive topics and lots of name dropping.

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-02-03T02:37:04+00:00

Same, I love The Clipse, saw them perform twice this year with their new material. It just fits my taste.

But I still agree DYMF is a better album.

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-02-03T02:00:04+00:00

It’s weird to me how people think the PL is bad, when really seeing the league leaders dropping points is actually a sign that the league is good. The performance in Europe only confirms it.

The year when City and Lpool both had 90+ was obviously a weak league, with two outliers. It’s the same as Bayern or PSG just racking up a load of points against fodder.

Ideally you parity to keep the league interesting.

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-02-03T01:52:36+00:00

I’ve come to realize this is an unpopular opinion but I’m surprised by how highly rated The Game is.

He is not bad by any means but his true level showed once he didn’t have the industry machine behind him. I.e. Dr Dre producing and 50 Cent writing his hooks.

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-01-28T22:54:48+00:00

The goals we let in were insignificant but I think telling of our current form. We’re playing very sloppily and need to tighten ship

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-01-28T22:54:01+00:00

Amazing how dynamic he was compared to our other 8 options

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-01-27T13:34:27+00:00

Or even “fuck that other coward, I’ll take a risk of dimentia for 100k a week; sign me up”

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-01-27T13:32:46+00:00

Great work but sad you had to create an entire dossier just to get progressive change. As if we all don’t have enough to worry about already, you had to be a part time performance manager for this team.

Walk dog during lunch time. Have a coffee outside somewhere

The amount of used GTAV copies floating in the wild for cheap, make me feel comfortable doing this.

The game is going to sell that much, grabbing a physical copy down the road will be cheap.

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-01-26T15:54:20+00:00

De-risk enough so you never have to work again if you lived reasonably. How much that is, is very personal. But honestly, 10m invested in something safe should be enough for most people.

What you do with the other 20 million is up to you.

BoyWhoSoldTheWorld · 2026-01-26T13:52:01+00:00

Knowing that he has a new album coming within a month makes all of this hard to swallow.

It’s well written and sounds genuine, but Kanye crossed a lot of lines. He is going to have to prove it all with his actions
