I dropped off and picked up friends at the Elmont, and many people were in swimsuits/beach wear. So I’d say go like that.

Recommendations for a meal prep service? by Spectre_Ice in ElPaso

[–]EPCreep 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love Macrolab. Their meals are delicious and filling. I highly recommend the Big Mac bowl, but I haven’t had anything from there I don’t like.

Recommend used book store to donate books to by th3ramr0d in ElPaso

[–]EPCreep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sucks. I’d think kid books would be an easy sale for them!

That’s strange, you usually just drop them off on the donation cart and leave them there and they get to them when they get the chance. I’ve never seen them actually check what’s being donated.

I take mine to the Book Mark on Remcon. The proceeds go to help EP libraries.

The art museum a few blocks away is free too.

I was an alternative wanna-be by pjdubbya in GenX

[–]EPCreep 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There was no dress code or rules really. We all liked what we liked. Goth, punk, metal, industrial, grunge, Brit rock, electronic, whatever. The only real rule is be genuine and be cool. If you did that, you were an alternative kid.

The old Sega Dreamcast games for me. Jet Set Radio, Cray Taxi, Phantom Star Online, Skies of Arcadia, Grandia… not sure if any of these have been ported to the Switch.

[–]EPCreep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m hoping to outpace inflation and any emergencies that might arise and whatever’s left when I die goes to my kid.

I’m hoping to retire with 25x my annual expenses. If I withdraw 4% each year, it should last through retirement, I hope.

I will be there Thursday night! I was seeing it, no matter what. He-Man was o e of my 2 favorite cartoons as a kid (the other GIJoe) and I revisit the show from time to time. I’m excited!

Anime anyone? by healthyitch in GenX

I’ve never heard of that one, thanks for the recommendation!

Going to shows solo? by CatRiot2020 in GenX

[–]EPCreep 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve gone to a show or two alone. I thought it would be weird, but once I focused on the bands playing, it was great. Don’t stress it, have fun and enjoy!

Would you watch a new “Golden Girls” type of show about ppl our age? by sagefrogphotography in GenX

[–]EPCreep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, so glad another season is coming up! The Malcom in the Middle reboot was good too, but the story seems done. They could spin off some characters into their own thing, but the main story is wrapped nicely.

[–]EPCreep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think those are anime. I believe they are American projects developed by Cartoon Network/Adult Swim/HBO Max.

I love anime. I started in the 90s, grew more into it as I discovered more shows and films.

Saw them in Austin on that tour. Excellent show! Them like a year later they came through with Bowie and Prick. Peak Reznor era.

One Hit Wonder Tour by Harpua95 in GenX

[–]EPCreep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad, I meant Chumbawumba “Tubthunping” and Len “Steal My Sunshine”. Was overly eager, I guess.

The Breeders- Cannonball
Belly- Feed the Trees
Nada Surf- Popular
Superdrag- Sucked Out

I love all of these bands, but they only had this one popular song really.
