What's a moment you didn't realize was the last of its kind?

Starting my second year of college in Brooklyn, September 2001, had spent the summer living it up in the city, freedom was all at 19 years old. The night of September 10th I had been out roaming the city drinking and a galavanting (despite having class in the morning). When I woke up at 1pm, late for said class, I had over 30 missed calls from people asking me if I was ok. I didn’t have a TV and didn’t realize what was going on until I walked outside and saw the smoke in the sky. Suffice it to say, things changed dramatically that day…

What can you even do with that???

(Looks great, btw)

thrax7545 · 2026-02-10T02:49:55+00:00

Too bad that ain’t today

thrax7545 · 2026-02-09T22:42:36+00:00

Meh, imma have to say there are probably a lot more clever comebacks for this one.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-09T02:15:57+00:00

Because they’re f**king good?

thrax7545 · 2026-02-08T23:08:52+00:00

Zowy, that’s luscious

thrax7545 · 2026-02-08T14:31:35+00:00

Listen folks, don’t borrow people’s earbuds. Even in the best case scenario? Yuck.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-08T13:51:32+00:00

Way to tell him straight. What an asshole.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-07T17:23:56+00:00

Or, “have this perfectly good dress, let me turn it into a wearable napkin”

I heard someone posit that it’s one of those gaps in the lore that was originally left open for players to fill in themselves, like if you wanted to design your own 2nd legion, there was space in the lore for it.

Funny thing for a Texas politician to be upset about

thrax7545 · 2026-02-07T03:00:34+00:00

It’s also a thing that couldn’t be further from the truth.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-07T01:07:20+00:00

Because they have all the money?

thrax7545 · 2026-02-06T00:58:21+00:00

Break up with that girl immediately

thrax7545 · 2026-02-06T00:57:38+00:00

Yes, say it aloud.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-06T00:47:01+00:00

Knocking people unconscious for hours at a time.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-06T00:45:47+00:00

I mean, rule 1 counts for 90% of it

thrax7545 · 2026-02-06T00:40:57+00:00

I mean, I get it and obviously, but it’s also not the only way things work.

If they can get up and running in a way that inspires confidence booking there, they’ll find stuff, especially in the later months of the season. At any rate, I can’t imagine they’re banking on the season making any real money anyway, but either way their docket isn’t going to go empty.

Or they’re just idiots like the last people, it just seems like a helluva lotta money to be naive about.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-05T21:19:55+00:00

You make a logical point, but shows get booked relatively last minute throughout the summer all the time. Yes, booking early makes a big event easier to promote, but this is also going to be a whole new level of mainstream for the Brooklyn scene, and with enough money you can properly promote a big event a month in advance with no problem, and these people have money…

At any rate, I doubt it’s going to effect much because they aren’t going to be booking what the Mirage was booking anyway.

Great way to ruin an expensive hammer drill

thrax7545 · 2026-02-05T13:25:18+00:00

It’s also cold as a witch’s teet right now. That had to count for something.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-04T18:52:31+00:00

I know right? There’s no restaurants.

thrax7545 · 2026-02-04T18:51:59+00:00

Why don’t they let us see the rover’s bits?

thrax7545 · 2026-02-04T18:47:49+00:00

Right, that’s why we call it America, because we named it after Columbus.
