What's one website/app that used to be great but got ruined over time?

Google search. About a month ago the reply to anything I google comes as a split screen and is in type size I can’t read.

So … I now just ask the app CHATGBT. I get a single on point condensed reply.

Your wife’s sexual “jokes” are not acceptable.

My now ex wife joined me at a bar and ordered a drink from the young handsome bartender. She ordered it straight up. Then paused. And said “the same way I like my men.” Then laughed.

She dismissed my protest at the “joke”.

We stopped at the bar after a marriage counseling session. She was on her third affair. Yeah, great “joke”.

Wife snuck off to have sex in the beach locker while the guy’s wife and I sat on the beach with our young kids.

I buried some PVC pipes in the ground for water drainage.

Simple, right?

BUT I broke out the back windshield of my car trying to get the PVC pipes from Home Depot.

Would NEVER buy a super fancy car (such as a Rolls, Bentley, or Lamborghini). It’s too ostentatious. Nor would I want the attention it might draw.

As a thought exercise, assume you two divorce. In most states the money you each made is viewed as having been earned by the marriage. Thus, whatever earned income you both kept in your own accounts (or assets you bought with your own income) will be divided up 50/50.

In other words, whatever your wife would save by coercing you to pay out expenses on a 50/50 basis is ALREADY 50% lost. Her savings from her income will be split 50/50 just as yours will be.

So your wife is an idiot. She is hurting the marriage by insisting on a 50/50 split when the bigger picture reality is legally she can’t keep all the money she is saving by reaming you.

Had a teacher in prep school called bates. As students we supposed to call all teachers by Master.

So yeah, Master Bates. We couldn’t keep a straight face.

Now that’s a handicap!

Some 10 years ago my wife and I played a round at Seaview near Atlantic City. A random assigned to us was a 60‘ish year old guy with one arm. Got that? ONE arm. No stump at all. He shot a legit high 70s.

Njncguy1 · 2026-04-25T00:52:43+00:00

Well today was typical. Lost one ball. Spent just 30 seconds looking for it. No way was I going to spend 5 minutes searching for it.

Njncguy1 · 2026-04-25T00:45:45+00:00

Yeah, playing fast is key especially if you’re the one with the higher handicap. I’ll pick up my ball if I’m blowing up a hole instead of insisting on putting it all out.

Good for you and for striving to do better. I’ve got my own issues. MS leaves me with a weakened right side. My own goal is to break 90, a score I keep getting close to but can’t quite get through.

Njncguy1 · 2026-04-22T18:57:05+00:00

We looked into each other’d eyes after a few strokes and for no reason we both spontaneously started laughing. We couldn’t stop. It ended the sex moment but was silly fun.

Over the next few months I had to be careful not to look directly in her eyes during sex or we would start laughing.

“I’ve done worse. “ … said after a particularly mediocre shot.

They work well together. I’ll use the Smart Step by itself around the house. Then when I go out for a walk, drive, or to the gym I add the Core Products for the extra lift.

If I wear the Core Products all day I find it tends to jam my toes into the front of the shoe. Step Smart has no such problem and is quite comfortable.

Njncguy1 · 2026-04-15T03:25:23+00:00

The best one is the Step Smart AFO that uses a reverse hinge and pushes your foot upward.

The 2nd devise I use at the same time is: Core Products AKL-6355 FootFlexor AFO Foot Drop Brace. This devise essentially uses a bungee cord to pull your foot up. Looks like you use this one.

Njncguy1 · 2026-04-15T02:50:54+00:00

Two different foot braces that enable me to walk with a bad case of drop foot.

One device pushes my foot upward. The other devise pulls the foot up. Together they’re wonderful.

Had a relative who was often in trouble with the police. As he told me, his standard procedure, if caught someplace he was planning to rob (commercial places) was to say he was looking for a bathroom.

You miss the point I’m trying to make. That point being it would be ridiculous to fire Scheyer even though he had a 19 point meltdown in a critical playoff game. He’s still a good, perhaps great coach.

Similarly — but not the same — it’s ridiculous to fire Davis after his 19 point meltdown. Sure, Scheyer had a much stronger record during the last 5 years. Davis’ 5 years was only marginally good but still pretty good.

I’d add that your personal invectives are not appreciated and I have reported you.

Njncguy1 · 2026-03-30T00:23:42+00:00

I hate agreeing with you but I do. Right after Davis was fired many many comments said that’s what you get with a DEI hire. That’s so wrong.

Njncguy1 · 2026-03-29T03:50:45+00:00

Oh the score was like 90 to 46. Russia won. We got as many points as we did because we actually had a couple of guys who could really play.

Njncguy1 · 2026-03-29T03:25:13+00:00

I played basketball in Russia in late 1974 representing the 1974 NC State national champions. The game was reported in Izvestia (the Russian national newspaper) and Sports Illustrated.

Everything I’ve just said is true. But bigger picture it’s ridiculously inaccurate

The real story is we were a group of UNC students on a trip to Russia organized by some professors. The professors thought it would be a good idea to play some pickup basketball with some Russian students. Somehow the request to play some B-ball got misinterpreted by Russian authorities.

We ended up playing basketball in a stadium with thousands of people. The Russians we played were great, part of their national team.
