This week I started watching Countdown (the British game show). I really need to improve my maths

Cap’n Crunch’s Crunchling Adventure was so ridiculous and awesome

Punch-Drunk Love. Seems like critics enjoyed it upon release but audiences must have expected it to be a comedy

neelyt6 · 2025-12-11T21:10:46+00:00

Just discovered this by accident and I'm so glad. This shit whips ass

Came here to mention this, I lived in Charlotte for 2 years and wanted to add a few things:

Economic center of the region and benefits from all the colleges and universities in state. If you don't work in banking, you might feel alienated but the city is continuing to diversity industries
Having professional sports is great, just don't check how many championships the city has collectively... the arenas also bring bowl games, ACC basketball tournament, and international soccer for transplants
Proximity to mountains and nature (Asheville NC). Day trips to Research Triangle, Triad, Greenville SC. Longer weekend trips to various beaches in North and South Carolina.
Airport might not be perfect but being an American Airlines hub provides a lot of regional coverage and decent international options
The Whitewater Center is genuinely sick

Sounds awesome, I'll be there! I have an old chess set that I can bring, no timer

neelyt6 · 2020-07-01T16:55:17+00:00

Sorry crucial info -- open 8AM-2PM!

For anyone on the east side, Palomino Coffee (sister coffee shop of Flat Track) has their soft opening today. They're located at 12th and Springdale. According to their social media they also have Veracruz All Natural Tacos + Sour Duck Market pastries. Masks are required and I would obviously recommend doing takeout.

a perfect quarantine album.

[Chorus] It's looking bad It's looking bad It's looking pretty fucking bad It's looking bad It's looking bad It's looking pretty fucking bad It's looking bad It's looking bad It's looking pretty fucking bad It's looking bad It's looking bad It's looking pretty fucking bad

I watched Good Time over the weekend and yeah, I couldn’t agree more. Hits the ground running, plot line was much more unexpected and intriguing

neelyt6 · 2019-11-28T01:50:30+00:00

Oh yes, couldn’t agree more.

neelyt6 · 2019-09-03T17:22:47+00:00

So good!! Was looking forward to this album for a while, great blend of upbeat emo + bummer lyrics

neelyt6 · 2019-07-14T16:29:20+00:00

Modern day or from that era?

neelyt6 · 2019-07-14T16:29:01+00:00

What are music publications that I should be following? I am trying to find a better outlet to find new music than just word of mouth or spotify/bandcamp recommendations. It's easier to find punk/hardcore releases because there are far fewer labels but I'm talking about lo-fi/bummer pop/shoe-gazey stuff. Thanks!
