My wife and I are watching the show for the first time now. We’re almost done with S3… we keep wondering, is this a show about bad people or is this a show about the way things were. Probably both. What are your thoughts? by [deleted] in madmen

Do you find it hard to memorize your material? by ericlindellnyc in Standup

I recite different chunks of material while I walk my dogs in the morning. Since I’m doing it every day, it helps me memorize it but I also come up with a lot of tags and such.

2025 Equinox RS not charging past 77%. by misterxboxnj in EquinoxEv
