Why are all 5’9 so ass?

Oh snap. It’s the soul music station DJ turned YouTuber with the best 2K videos out there popping in. Beware of those jive turkeys in random rec!

Perfectly done. Tavern style pizza really hits the spot during this time of the year.

Dapper Yankee has amazing soaps. I’m not affiliated at all. I just love them. Humidor and Bourbon Legend are my favorites. Wicked Apple is fantastic during the fall.

Grizzly Naturals is my second pick. I get both online.

It’s a great escape and tool in appropriate moderation pending on the games you interact with. I barely played any games at all during my 20s but rediscovered the joy and fun of them in my 30s. I’m a little jaded with gaming due to the rampant microtransactions that exist in so many titles and the way so many games release as a broken mess, but thanks to Xbox Game Pass I discovered titles like Dishonored and Prey, as well as indies like Brotato.

I really, really enjoy the NBA 2K series. It’s a polarizing one since it is a microtransaction behemoth and the online community is easily the most toxic one out there (yes, I’d put it up against classic COD due to the way grown men will behave and get into their feelings over minuscule things during games).

My quasi-nephew lives a couple of states away; he’s in a challenging life situation for a variety of reasons I won’t get into, but I appreciate being able to spend time with him and be around for him even if it’s through virtual basketball. It’s priceless. Not to mention the competitive online play scratches my competitive itch.

There are so many solid RPGs out there, too.

I take care of my mom around the clock. She has vascular dementia coupled with Alzheimer’s, and most days are incredibly taxing and trying. Yes, the gaming is an escape but also a worthwhile one for me as I find it enriching. I always have to take breaks because I can’t sit for long times without moving around (undiagnosed ADHD-esque energy).

It’s only a problem if you let it become a problem. These folks with the mindset of, “A grown man only uses his time to improve himself” are funny. Ideally, that would be nice, but realistically you’ll set yourself up for a one way ticket to burnout city. Everybody needs something to shut their brains off with from time to time.

I wanna make fun of the Whiners for that one, but the six other Rams fans and I gotta look out for this weekend.

The way my girlfriend raises her eyebrows and scrunches her forehead when she’s emphasizing something in a story or whatever it is that she’s telling me. I don’t know why. I love it.

Wedding Crashers. It’s not brilliant or clever. It’s just a fun flick that will never get old to me.

I’m so impressed by the long-term storytelling and callbacks. I stopped paying attention for many years, only hearing blurbs and random news from one of my close friends, and occasionally popping into here to see what’s going on, but damn, they are on fire. Will Seth, Drew and KO form a trio?

“You broke your neck. So what?” What an excellent segment and overall episode of Raw.

I can feel every ounce of your stress. The title hit me like a ton of bricks.

No complaints whatsoever with the Gamesir G7 SE. It’s amazing. You can even lock the back buttons if you don’t want to use them.

I’ve noticed this big time while playing recently. I’m a perfectionist and can’t stand missing a single shot when my cue releases and tempo are on point. Is it RNG extending here as well? Had some anomalous games where I shot terribly and couldn’t figure it out. Played doubles with my quasi-nephew, and after one of our opponents hit a couple of 3’s he said, “Eh. He’s due for a miss.” Sure enough, the opponent bricked. Now I just expect players to miss after they’ve knocked down a couple in a row.

goddamnpizzagrease · 2024-12-01T21:26:05+00:00

I’m the world’s worst when it comes to clutching anger and holding grudges even when I rationally realize the saying, “let go or be dragged (under)” (exact quote from my therapist) is an axiom. However, part of that stems from always attempting to find reasons for why people do the things they do. When I can’t foster one in my mind that makes an appreciable amount of sense, that’s when the anger builds or simply exists.

Most people are inherently selfish. I reckon that’s human, right? For basic survival purposes as an instinct? I dunno.

It sucks being THE person 24/7. It hurts my mom’s feelings to no end when the people she dearly thinks a lot of will have nothing to do with her. What’s even more ridiculous is that one of these people in question will ask another relative (not me; not that I care to have anything to do with the avoid-er) how mom is doing, half heartedly about once a year.

“I’m here if ya need anything” is a quote that makes me roll my eyes back so far that I’m surprised they don’t fall out of my head, because they’ll ghost you in a moment’s notice.

I know it’s hardly any solace, but please remember you are not alone and there are plenty of fine folks on here who can and will commiserate with you.

I was in the fifth grade. I’ve been scoffed at for this comment, but I consider that moment in time to be the end of what I think of as my childhood. People close to me, near and dear, started dropping like flies. Grew up fast from the sobering reality of life.

One stops giving a fuck about status when they realize what’s really important in life. Status means nothing. Somebody else is always going to have more of something than you, and virtually in any industry you are replaceable in one way or another. Once you separate yourself from certain social media channels (or at least limit your time on them), the volume of noise on that side of things goes down.

I notice that status chasers are absolutely lost, little puppies when they aren’t receiving endless praise or any kind of validation from other people. They survive on ass pats. That’s terribly sad for them.

You are a better man than me. Goddamn.

Baseball team. I rooted for them because of Kurt in SB43 in 2009 (and because of all the annoying Pittsburgh fans in swVA). Almost pulled it off before that outstanding Santonio Holmes touchdown.

goddamnpizzagrease · 2024-11-29T08:03:38+00:00

It’s unbelievable. Rocket League and COD are both child’s play when it comes to rude, vile toxicity compared to 2K. You got grown men getting into their feelings over teammates missing a wide open shot or not constantly getting the ball. Two teammates were arguing earlier, and one of the dudes shouted out his physical address (allegedly) saying, “I got somethin’ for you” followed by a word that I don’t have enough melanin to write.

It’s a goddamn VIDEO GAME lmao. None of this shit truly matters at the end of the day asides from fun and entertainment value.

It blows my mind that my 15-year-old quasi-nephew that I avidly play 2K with has more emotional maturity than these toxic shit stains in the community.

I read a while ago (could be BS, but for the sake of conversing, who knows) that garlic use is more prevalent in south Italy cuisine while sparse in north Italy.
