    Man, went outside last night and my next door neighbors were putting a for sale sign in their front yard. They are like 80+ years old and just need to go to assisted living. They are asking $400,000 which is probably fair or near fair. My wife immediately went into "What if we bought it"...

    Dungeon Crawler Carl

    You guys don't think he's going to do the 18th floor? correct me if I'm wrong but there's a chapter at the end of every book about the pineapple cabaret, and I thought that was the 18th floor. I just assumed all the internal stuff we're hearing about in each of those chapters is building in...

    That dudes hunting, he'll spring up and snatch a bird out of the air when he gets the chance. A couple of years ago my wife befriended 3 neighborhood roadrunners, they would come up and eat out of her hand, and even walk into our house if we left the backdoor open. The first time we watched one...

    The Naked Gun (2025)

    I mean, depends on where you live and all that Jazz too. I went and saw this Friday night at 6:20 (so I assume that's not matinee) and tickets were $9.25 each in Laughlin Nevada. Large Drink and popcorn combo was $17. So, all in it was less than $80 for my family of 4, a Large popcorn, Large...

    Haha dude, its my fucking curse and I passed it down to my kids. I'm always fucking smiling, I've had multiple jobs where people have started calling me "smiley", which is not a nickname I encourage or want. I genuinely think its just a defense mechanism from a rough childhood, but it has served...

    Yeah, I think its called the Blue Bayou or something like that. Fun story, when I was around 20 I went on a blind date with some super spooky goth girl, and I made some joke like "I didn't know I was going on a date with a Disney princess!" or something like that, just because she was basically...

    7 Days to Die

    Yeah, I'm a huge fan of overhaul mods with this game. So many great ideas in those. I remember watching a video with the creators where someone asked about a feature or Darkness Falls or some other mod and they said "We never touch mods, don't even know what you are talking about. We don't care...

    Yeah, I really wanted to take my kids to Disney World at some point, because I had really wanted to go as a kid and it never happened. Looked into it a few years ago and holy fucking shit is that an expensive trip. We ended up going to Hawaii for a week instead and probably spend 1/3 the money 3...

    My first house was built in 2006, sold in 2007 for $311,000 and foreclosed a few months later. I bought it in 2008 from the bank for $118,000 which was kind of a steal (3 bedroom, 2 car, 1600sqft). We lived in it for 12 years, and sold it in 2020 for $167,000. I just checked Zillow and it...

    Here's me and the fam doing our summer trip last month, it's probably been about 10 years since I've posted a photo on here ehh? Fun fact - This is the most expensive dinner I've ever purchased.

    I don't understand the market at all right now. A high school friend found out she had a brain tumor a year ago. She's dating a guy in Phoenix who told her to come move in with him to get medical treatments and such. She had to leave her pets behind(he couldn't have them at his place), but has...

    I've brought my boys to Disneyland 6 or 7 times. Generally I google a calendar and only go on a day that the park is forecasted to be dead. My kids had 0 interest in waiting in a line if it was more than 10 minutes, they didn't throw a fit or anything, they would just be like "nope, that line is...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    The only thing I've moved over was Shib, I keep thinking I should just convert the others to Bitcoin. They are comparatively such small amounts though that I keep just doing the "Meh, maybe one of them will randomly blow up, might as well just leave them be." My wifes father called me two...

    I'm pretty much just all in with Bitcoin. At first I was dipping my toes in a little bit of everything people said "This is the next Bitcoin!", but eventually saw the light. Haven't bought anything but BTC in years. I've posted in here about it, basically I hesitated for years, finally went all...

    Do you sneak into movies?

    I have a fond memory of sneaking a ton of pizza into the movies though. One of my best friends birthday was on Independence Day, so for his 16th birthday his mom was taking him and all his friends to go see the Independence Day movie with Will Smith and the Aliens. There was like 8 of us, and...

    Do you sneak into movies?

    I worked at a theater in like 98-99, and we LOVED to bust people sneaking in. It was almost always kids, and just felt great to be like "That mother fucker is going to try some shit..." and be proven right. My favorite go to was when kids bought tickets to some movie, when it was clear they were...

    KPop Demon Hunters (2025)

    I watched it based on you guys. I found it to be enjoyable, slightly above average - like a 6 out of 10, worth watching. My wife said it bored her a bit but was pretty cute and "just ok" and rated it a 5/10. My 16 year old son said it was hot garbage and rated it a 3/10. My 14 year old son said...

    The annoying thing is that I just went a visited a friend in Colorado Springs, and we're in his house visiting for like an hour and his wife goes "Uhhhh do you guys mind going outside to meet our neighbors?". We were confused and she explains "Our neighborhood group chat is going off about who's...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    God damn it, my next door neighbor just informed me that he listed his house on Friday and already sold it. Cash sale, a couple from California, both Hispanic and in their late 60's. He said he thought they were married but he saw on the paperwork they both have different last names. Why do I...

    28 Years Later

    The original plot had zero of the soldier stuff. Basically they were going to tie up the dad who got infected and then wander until they found the lab where the virus was made. There they would find a scientist who tells them the only cure is to do a full blood transfusion. The main guy straps...

    I ranted about it at one point, probably in this thread, but a quick recap because I'm not at all surprised by what I'm hearing. I purchased 28 days later on DVD from a blockbuster back in the day. I liked the movie so much I watched it with director commentary turned on, something I've only...

    I was assistant manager of a movie theater when I was 19, the exact same thing happened in our theater. Middle of the day, middle of the week, some movie that had all of 4 or 6 people in the theater. It had been raining a lot, there was a leak and it was just slowly soaking all the ceiling...

    Kickstarters

    I'll have to look into that. I was suuuuuper happy with my Cthulhu wars stuff from them (mostly because the minis are sick, I've used them for tons in tabletop games), but never paid attention to anything past that. I'm mostly been very happy with Kickstarters but yeah, I've been burned on 2...

    7 Days to Die

    This is my wife and I's favorite game, we have a thousand+ hours into it easily. Never played solo, and we've tried with a group but for us, 2 players was pretty perfect. The biggest tip I have was hard learned - Never make your crafting base the same as your horde base. In fact, don't let your...

    Yeah, I just got an email from another Kickstarter basically saying the same thing "We don't know what we are going to do". I'm like "Charge me $20 more for shipping or whatever, and then never make anything in China again. Problem solved. Also, leave poor Poots alone, we're only 5 years behind...

    The D&D thread

    Years ago there was a website called thetrove.net which was just a massive repository for RPG resources - just gigs and gigs of PDFs from tons of systems. I know I had probably 15GB on a hard drive at one point, but lost that a few years ago. Looks like that website is long gone - no surprise...

    Just to rant for a second, sometimes the old ways are best. I bought my house at the tail end of 2019 and basically did a ton of remodeling and updating.

    No, I've basically just had the mentality of "you go to a doctor if you think something is seriously wrong" up to this point in my life. I'm about to hit 45 and thought it was probably time I start... But to be honest, a big part of me was thinking that seeing a Dr regularly was more of a 65+...

    We had a game where some undead fiend touched our paladins arm, and the flesh just melted away. From about his shoulder down he just had a working skeletal arm, and it always caused him a mild pain and felt as he needed to scratch skin that was no longer there. Our DM expected this to be a...

    Probably should be huh? I think its just the mentality of "I feel fine so I guess I can just keep doing what I'm doing and I'll continue to be fine."

    Yeah, I was pretty shocked when I realized just how much it actually was. I would hit a gas station and grab a 64oz fountain drink first thing in the morning, have it half gone during my hour commute. I'd grab a second one in the afternoon, and often grab a third when I was leaving work or...

    So, about 3 and a half months ago I decided to go to a doctor and get a full checkup. I feel fine, and nothing was obviously wrong, but I'm the fattest I've ever been and am about to turn 45, and just wanted to kind of get a general check up. So I was 5'9 and weigh 236 pounds, with basically all...
