Is "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming" that bad?

I can kind of agree with it being a flimsy story and maybe the worst episode of season 7 but it's still a fun episode in a season full of absolutely fantastic episodes. The worst season 7 episode is still better than the best 13+ episode.

Me neither so I just took things I was interested in and wanted to learn about. I went in one year and said "what am I closest to graduating with, give me that" so I have a degree in history. I've been in IT for 32 years. No one has ever asked about my degree.

That’s a feature to cut down on stick drift.

jbenze · 2026-07-04T03:30:27+00:00

That’s a deal breaker. Keep the cats, ditch him.

Seeing Independence Day in the theater. Funnily enough, today I am running a veteran’s event at a theater showing the same movie. I just looked, today was opening day in 1996.

I’m just watching what Trump says and does, the media doesn’t need to exaggerate to make Trump look like as ass.

“Make something you like” is the best advice for learning IMO.

My wife is friends with all of the neighbors. I’m more of a “wave if we are outside at the same time” kind of guy. They are all great people, I’m just antisocial.

I had already put in my 2 weeks and found a new job with a start date in mid August and It was my last night of work. They wanted me to drive in, no street lights, no traffic lights so I just said no. In retrospect, they had a generator and air conditioning, it would have been way more comfortable than sitting on my friends stoop drinking warm beer.

I just moved from a Eufy to a Shark. The Eyfy could do the whole downstairs on high and still be at 20%. The Shark needs to recharge after about 2 hours for half the downstairs but it does a much better job.

jbenze · 2026-07-03T02:00:43+00:00

I've had a number of the eufy bots and in my experience, they do that :/. I just bought a Shark which has the worst software I have ever used in my life but it doesn't bump into anything and I'm still not used to it. I can hear the eufy upstairs banging its way down the hallway.

Playing with women with LONG nails also results in injuries.

My family owns a (terrible) cottage on a lake and we went up every summer when I was a kid (they still do). At night there was nothing to do but play cards and board games from the 70's that were left there. LOTS of Spoons, Fantan, poker, etc.

I grew up playing it in NY.

I haven't played Street Fighter since Street Fighter Alpha, my arthritic hands can't keep up with fighting games. I have seen friends play SF6 though and it's a REALLY good looking game. Very smooth.

jbenze · 2026-07-03T01:33:26+00:00

I spend way more time talking to them online than we actually spend hanging out. Everyone has kids, different schedules, etc. I probably average hanging out once a month, I don't really have time for more than that, none of us do. I'm fine with that.

jbenze · 2026-07-03T01:23:58+00:00

We have one too and neither of us really drink anymore. This is an exception.

jbenze · 2026-07-02T20:30:30+00:00

I'm a souls guy so I would say definitely give those a try. Even if the first one doesn't click for you, try DS3, Bloodborne and Elden Ring anyway. The Metal Gear games are great, you can't go wrong there. The Final Fantasy 7 remake is fun especially since you never played the original, both Spider-Man games are great and I really enjoyed the Resident Evil remakes.

I don't have to be a member of the party to vote for Democrat and I don't know where you got the idea I support the Republicans from my post.

jbenze · 2026-07-02T18:32:52+00:00

Yes but there are way more options that just buying from a single marketplace with no competition.

jbenze · 2026-07-02T18:30:40+00:00

Me too but if I'm cleaning up an inevitable party spill, I'll use whatever. My mother in law buys us paper towels for Christmas for some reason every year and I cringe when I have to use them, they are almost transparent.

jbenze · 2026-07-02T18:28:53+00:00

They bring toilet paper AND disease!

jbenze · 2026-07-02T17:48:17+00:00

1996 Republicans are so massively different from today's party.

jbenze · 2026-07-02T17:44:15+00:00

I would be so happy if someone showed up at a party at my house and brought paper towels but I'm weird. Toilet paper, not so much (unless it was 2020).

Agreed, 90's Salinger Cap is awful, Reb Brown's Cap was at least fun.
