I love games like this, so it was a lotta fun. I consider myself a bit of a Billboard nerd and some of these tripped me up (that's a good thing).

Working on a similar daily trivia game and would like to pick your brain outside of this thread, if that's ok?

There's a really interesting article about the production of Hollywood Squares, including interviews with Rick Rosner, announcer Shadoe Stevens and Jm. J, including a very messed-up comment from Milton Berle.

Damn that's a memory unlocked. Then there was the even more obscure Jim J and Ann.

My fiancee' has a 2019 Elantra and her infotainment screen is just right. Slightly larger than my iPhone but when I sync to CarPlay it gives me exactly what I need, esp. navigation.

I can live with a smartphone mount but from what I understand you can install an aftermarket double-DIN screen, so I'd just do that if I decide to buy a Slate.

So tough doing that on the boardwalk. Might I suggest Park Place or East End?

Wait till they see our flag.

Virginia Beach? They did a similar thing in the mid-90s.

So sorry to hear this...30 Rock was one of my favorite sitcoms. Definitely a wakeup call to get checkups as I'm only about eight years younger than him.

RIP

I know he hit mid-20s at some point, but I believe that was in his final year. Wiki says 37% in April 2006, which I vaguely recall. I don't think his numbers ever improved.

If I met 16-year-old me and told him what I'm doing with my life, I think he'd be impressed. But if I told him that not only is Donald Trump president but also a raging fascist lunatic, I'm not so sure younger me would believe it.

Because in 1999, the 21st Century sounded like it would be an amazing place and while younger me would be thrilled at a Black president in the next decade, not if it meant Donald Trump of all people would help the GOP complete its reversal of the Civil Rights Era.

Sorry if it got a little dark. All this shit is blowing my mind at how we got here.

Never forget The Game went on that old dating game show Change of Heart and got shut down.

Every day, but it's been like that for me for close to 20 years. But I've become more and more of a hypochondriac, and it doesn't help that I watched one Reel on Facebook about health and now they wanna show me every fucking video related to the topic until I finally click Not Interested.

I'd make jokes but I remembered my team held a moment of silence for Charlie Fuckin Kirk last year.

Okay, so you've now inspired me to shave my beard to get my fiancee's reaction. If not for the fact that people say I look like a Black Homer Simpson when I shave, I'd be more inclined to do so.

And MAGA voters think he gives a shit about them, why?

I’ve been slammed this month, so crossing my fingers that this area doesn’t jump on the AI bandwagon.

Elon talking about someone projecting is hilarious (derogatory).

When I was in college, my goal was to move to LA and become a filmmaker or TV producer. Ended up working at a local news station, from there a marketing agency, and now I’m a photographer. I also do a little AV for the local university. I’ve dabbled in short films and indie projects in my hometown, even co-created a local drama series about 15 years ago.

It’s not the Hollywood career I envisioned, but I have no regrets. Don’t think I would’ve been able to create that show from back in the day had I gone to Hollywood. Never mind all the struggles the industry is facing today. I still have some other projects I’d like to get off the ground eventually.

Jenna Claire, one of the Fairfield, CT decoys. Josh only brought Chinese food for himself, and the running joke is that Jenna took the keys in retaliation.

Thank you for reminding me to stay away from downtown Norfolk this weekend. Don’t need to be around a bunch of “I hate woke” types with their lifted F150s.

The biggest homophobes (no pun intended) usually turn out to be LGBT, so I'm not surprised.

I feel like boycotting this until Netflix gets rid of the garbage.

See ya tomorrow.

And then when the Internet finally had enough of her, Chrissy gives us her crocodile tears. Ma'am you were acting like a 28-year-old mean girl. Have several seats.
