    The realization hit that he's about to spend a few years in Cleveland.

    Maybe he's legitimately not interested in pursuing that. Some people find solace in solitude.

    Burfict cut by the Bengals. New regime already making solid moves.

    The holiday versions of almost all candies are better. Snickers eggs are the fucking best.

    Surprisingly enjoying the new DT album. It's in my regular rotation right now. Fucking fired up to see them front and center in a couple weeks.

    Did you McCheese out with an All Star? Get your hashbrowns topped with a bunch of goodies?

    I can tell you right now that McCheese will hate almost all of those places. Way too "hipster" for him.

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (From Software)

    I don't dig it either. Paid full price for the game based on the overwhelmingly positive response here. Spent hours getting destroyed by the third boss. Bitch would one-shot me and then it took like 30 minutes just to get back to her. Fuck that noise. I'll probably never boot the game up...

    live aid, 85, Queen: impressions?

    Honestly I don't think much of the setlist. It's a good performance, but I've seen like 35981264598 concerts in my life and some have been pretty fucking mind-blowing. Muse is probably the first that comes to mind. HAARP is a live video out there. Just the intro with them coming up from...

    Bengals will probably be last again. Unless this new coach can work some magic.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Honestly I think there are a decent number of these in the Bay Area. Although 23 is young as fuck and would lead me to be suspicious. Typically 27 is when you start to notice more stability.

    Prague

    Just booked a trip here in May. I already had a Paris trip planned and was eyeing some fave bands to see who might be in the EU in that timeframe. Seeing Muse Memorial Day weekend in Prague. Beyond fired up. I have three days there and I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to do, but I'll...

    This @McCheese. I haven't been to Atlanta in years and the only thing I remember is Varsity. I don't recall it being particularly mind-blowing. But it's an unforgettable fast food experience.

    The Matrix (1999)

    I don't quite remember, but the first rated R movie I saw in theaters was T2, Unforgiven, or Tombstone. My dad really liked westerns. Honestly don't even remember if I saw T2 in theaters or just watched it a shitload at home on VHS.

    What We Do in the Shadows

    Garth Marenghi's Darkplace is some of the funniest shit I've ever seen in my life. Friend and I quote it all the time and no one gets any of the references unfortunately.

    Gotta think that Tomlin has a hand in the egos the star Steeler offensive players have developed. Bell and Brown have both seemed to sabotage their own careers.

    Obviously celebs and people with 150k+ followers get prioritized due to visibility, but the response times are still typically less than 15 min after the initial message. Some companies even have SLAs of two minutes.

    Job Hunting

    The experience is completely different in Bay Area tech. I've found recruiters to be pretty legit. Depending on what your job function is, employees have more power here so that might be the case. If you're a good engineer or sales person in tech you command some serious leverage. So...

    I wouldn't say I'm "on" Twitter. I don't think I even follow anybody. I literally log in just to bitch at companies. Fuck 1-800 numbers and email support. Think of it more as a text messaging service. But sure, if you want to waste your time on those non-preferred customer service channels...

    Mad Men is another Top 10 show for me. So yeah. Guess I like the slow burn period piece shows.

    Telling y'all. This is why Twitter is actually good. You bitch about a company on Twitter and they'll take care of your shit ASAP. Everyone can see that.

    Dubs need to come out and crush the Nuggets tomorrow. That Celtics game was one of the worst of the Kerr era. Just a slaughter from the start.

    I absolutely despise sparkling water beverages. But everyone in the office loves that shit. Had a happy hour in the office a couple weeks ago and I had nothing to mix with my gin. I'm a gin and soda kinda guy so figured La Croix would work. Goddamn. It's delicious. The grapefruit flavor is...

    I imagine the quality of chick you'd find in Phoenix to be similar to the quality you'd find in Orange County. Not a ringing endorsement.

    Yeah there are a ton of successful women on Tinder here in the Bay Area. Last girl I met from there was a biologist working in medical research.

    I rescinded an offer after my employer at the time gave me 20% more than the offer. The company seemed to have no problem with it and even followed up to let me know to keep them in my mind if I ever look for another position.

    The Official Guitar Thread

    I have an Ibanez Artcore and it's probably my worst guitar. I mainly used it as an acoustic since it projects decently enough. Though it receives 0 play since I bought my Taylor 714.

    I used to dislike seafood but then I had quality sushi and it's snowballed into full seafood fandom. Oysters, scallops, octopus, raw, pan seared, shrimp. Love it all. Oddly enough, fried is my least favorite way to eat seafood. I definitely judge people who go to sushi joints and get tempura.

    Not really a salmon fan. It's OK pan fried, but I'd rather have almost any other fish.

    2019 NFL Offseason: Chargers Started Early

    That's classic Marvin Lewis. Dude never trusted rookies and would never put them on the field. Opt'ing for 34 year olds who get burned by younger, faster receivers. New coach must think he's garbage.
