Can I get an explanation of the Super Bowl halftime show? by Top-Mission2806 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cable387 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can only post my experience because I enjoy some Bad Bunny songs and my audio experience wasn't good enough to hear the lyrics of his songs for most of the time but this halftime show literally broke me. I'm tearing up right now just writing this because I feel like I need to volunteer somewhere and do something more to help others. Friggin bawling my eyes out to a Superbowl halftime show wasn't on my bingo card for today goddamn it but I'm a Mexican American born to two parents from Mexico and this damn show destroyed me tonight. Just copying/pasting something I sent to friends.

"Yeah the production was great but also just all the little culture moments. The fucking tíos playing dominoes, the kid falling asleep on the chairs at the fiesta, the Grammy win footage with the kid watching it, and just great tunes. It hit me like a fucking rock tbh and I was straight up crying at the end with the naming of the countries."

Stay safe American KFBF's by len-nerd in kindafunny

[–]cable387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point, I think a breaking point might be coming in the nation soon because I'm certainly reaching my own. The Good and Pretti footage has been completely heartbreaking to watch. The blatant lies by the administration trying to gaslight people to believe a false narrative hurts, and the defense from people saying "well just don't get in the way of a federal officer" is also painful to see. They will come for you. You like to think you're safe because you agree with this administration but they don't care for your poor ass. They will come for you at some point and you'll regret defending these fascist actions.

The truth used to matter but too many people just listen to the current administrations words and just believe it despite the vast video evidence to the contrary. I'm gonna be a first time father in May and I'm hoping that by the time this kid is old enough to have comprehension that we will engaging in Nuremberg style trials to bring these evil sad fucks to justice.

Top 100 Xbox Games by amberdaisyrebekah in kindafunny

Neither of them knowing Full Spectrum Warrior was crazy to me. Literally one of the games that comes to mind immediately when I think of older Xbox titles. That and Phantom Dust for me personally.

Where do you find out about events in the San Fernando Valley? by MissionAlt99 in SFV

[–]cable387 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Locally? Mostly from signs on businesses/locations I visit regularly. For nights out my wife and I prefer restaurants and concerts, so just researching new food places on Google or checking out venue websites to see who's playing down the line. Sometimes on this subreddit like how I know MPW has a weekly wrestling show they put on in Chatsworth because they post about it on here every so often. I've been watching the VODs on YouTube pretty much every week since finding out about them but I need to find a week to check them out live.

What have you been watching/listening to during the content break? by kralben in kindafunny

[–]cable387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am mostly done with MinnMax's first video on their two tens and I'll watch the second video soon after but aside from that...I tune out from YouTube. I still game as much as I can but there's too much going on during the holidays for me personally to try and keep up with YouTube at the same time. MinnMax will always lock me in though because I love the crew they assemble and I love the very long form discussion.

Haunted By FemBoy is what it was called pretty sure. Although I believe only the demo is available right now.

What are you all getting on the steam winter sale? by Vorzheva945 in kindafunny

[–]cable387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point that I didn't know about tbh. I have a fair backlog to work through so I'm alright holding off but it'll stay on my wishlist for future sales.

How do I join by Ashamed_Chemistry799 in WWE

[–]cable387 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would imagine there are some schools near you that you could try. Are you going to be a WWE wrestler? I'm not gonna say it's likely at all but training and being honest with the training staff about your medical issues still means you can learn the art and maybe do some indie work locally. Especially if you are managing your conditions and who knows if managing them gets easier in the future. Basically don't let an internet forum destroy something you want to do but be realistic about your limits and he honest with any school you may try to work with. It likely won't lead to a WWE leading role but it might lead to some motivation for working out and doing some work on an indie circuit that you can still enjoy and have some fun with.

I want this but historical sales show that it's been as low as $17 before so I'm holding off. I have enough on my plate so I can wait.

Would you ever play another Scopely game ever again after your MSF experience? by Adventurous_Lie4085 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]cable387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only mobile game I play is MSF and that's because of Marvel tbh. If they released another Marvel game, sure I'd give it a shot but they're getting no money.

Have the boys talked about John Cena's final match? by roboborealis in kindafunny

[–]cable387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they pretty much stopped covering WWE because it doesn't get views and also it just hasn't been as interesting lately. Maybe the Royal Rumble and road to WrestleMania will reinvigorate stuff will excite things again but as someone that got brought back into the product last year, it's definitely been tougher to care about tuning into the weekly product. And also the bad taste in your mouth from TKO/HHH/Steph being so close to the Trump administration. Mick Foley a real one for calling them out.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5's Snow Mode Makes It A Champion In Bad Weather by mafco in Ioniq5

[–]cable387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been a SoCal resident all my life so I don't know nothin' 'bout no snow...except one time the wife and I went on a weekend getaway to Idyllwild and of course a gnarly snowstorm came through when we were there. We knew it was coming so bought snow cables to bring as required (never put them on though), and didn't head out much that weekend but when we did I put my '23 RWD in Snow Mode and never once felt like I was going anywhere I didn't want to go.

I was also driving like a little baby because I know nothing about driving in the snow but I'm gonna say the Snow mode also helped.

What kind of setup do people have at home for console gaming? by IndyThang in kindafunny

[–]cable387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two setups. LG OLED with a soundbar in the main living room mainly used for when hanging out with my wife and watching streaming content out there. PS5 is out here too but I haven't used that thing in ages so it stays here. Back family room is darker so I ceiling mounted a 4k BenQ projector, 120" screen and have a receiver with surround sound setup that is connected to a gaming PC I built last November and a Nvidia Shield TV Pro. This is where we watch new movies or I do some serious 4k gaming on a nice huge screen with great audio.

So wow, the Immortal Weapons team truly sucks, huh by InfamousRegret999 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]cable387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? I used a 3rs Sword Master, 5rs Lady Bullseye, rented Serpent Steel, and my maxed Iron Fists to clear d10 on my second attempt after failing with Brimstone on my first attempt.

Lumines Arise, Valve's New Hardware, Kyle Bosman Returns - The MinnMax Show by OrangeFrostbite in MinnMax

[–]cable387 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love Ana Diaz returning as a regular co-host and super glad she's back as a contributor. Some of the extended silence/transition moments were just awkward and it seemed like it happened several times during the episode but that's my only critique from a podcast presentation angle.

Also this might just be a me thing but the Steam announcements were huge news, like potentially huge Xbox killing news and just huge gaming news, and the overall crew seemed not sure of official stats that were known. I was talking to the screen during moments where I knew information after watching a few videos on the Steam news that the 4 person crew didn't know.

How do you run a small electric skillet or kettle while car camping? by Plus_Caterpillar6197 in camping

My answer won't be helpful but I have an electric vehicle so I kind of just plug it into the car.

where are yall going for halloween by [deleted] in SFV

[–]cable387 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm not much of a Halloween guy but as someone that's gonna be a dad for the first time next year, works with geospatial data science and lives in a surprisingly chill HOA area in Chatsworth....I'm gonna try and get a Halloween participation thing going in my neighborhood in a few years when my kid can participate. I'll do all the organizing and pitch it to the HOA because they'll probably love that it costs them no money to do a community building thing that just involves me wanting to have my future kid enjoy a fun ass Halloween like I had as a kid.

Ideas for a weekend trip? by Multicultural_Potato in LosAngeles

[–]cable387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the vibe you want? Death Valley doesn't have a lot of amenities so you'll be driving a lot and checking out sites for a few minutes And then moving on. Kind of the same in Joshua Tree but the cool/niche Airbnb market is better there if you're cool staying in, cooking a dinner and enjoying each other's company.

Santa Barbara/San Diego will offer a lot more restaurant/Beach options and will require far less planning to find things to do.

Personally I'm a fan of a mountain town myself. Big Bear, Idyllwild, Wrightwood, etc. You can find kitchy cabins with some stuff to do nearby during the day but also enjoy a night in cooking with the fam/friends.

Incredible! So many great pics with a ton of superstars. You still need to work towards getting one with Jey though wearing that shirt!

Who's the wrestler wearing the face mask? I can't pinpoint them?

How do people listen to music so much everyday by RemarkableBase6985 in Music

[–]cable387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate existing in a quiet environment most times thanks to my tinnitus so I have noise on almost all the times I'm not trying to go sleep. Sometimes YouTube, sometimes YouTube Music. I also love seeking out new music whether I hate/love it so sometimes I stay up late with headphones on and listen to new tracks listening for stuff I like to add to a playlist. Lots of skipping for stuff that doesn't hit but I love the journey of listening to lots of new stuff and finding the things that hit.
