For what it’s worth, I’ve played a lot of this game. My wife and I are even playing it now!

I just wish it felt like someone cared about this game, from a developer perspective.

Lisa needs braces.

Yikesaroni! Congrats on making it through.

I drive as little as I can these days, but I used to drive a lot in Chicago. Talk about aggression! It’s like a game everyone is playing and you get points by being the biggest asshole who.

I live in Portland now and driving here for the first time was a real eye-opener. Still terrible in it’s own ways! But at least the drivers seem to want to cooperate for safe trips all around, for the most part.

Fuck cars.

AROOOOOOO YOU KNOW ILL BE CRANKING HOGS AND THANKIN LOGS ALL WEEKEND LONG HELL YEAH TGIFF!

THE EXTRA F IS FOR FUCKING.

THANKS FOR YOUR TIME MFERS.

The days are long but the years are short, it’s been said.

Not everyone operates in typical ways. Isn’t it also possible that someone started the telegram in hopes like-minded folks would join?

If a fire alarm is pulled, assume there’s a fire.

I’m with you as far as “humans deserve food that won’t make ‘em sick, regardless of circumstances” but expired food can often still be fine - you just are outside of the manufacturer’s guarantee that it should still be good.

When I gotta choose between “expired food” and “nothing”, I choose to give expired food the visual + sniff + small taste test before consuming.

I’m just a dude from the USA and I use both pronunciations!

Tin-ite-us is my go to but I’m trying to get away from it. It makes it sound like it ends in “-itis” when I say it. This makes it sound like an inflammatory disease, which it isn’t necessarily.

Tinnit-us feels off to say, but it doesn’t imply the “-itis” part, so I’m going for it!

Tinnitus sucks!

But for anyone new to it - something helpful for me is to know that tinnitus/the ringing itself can’t physically harm you or anyone you care about.

Sup, Ganesh! I’m HandOfDumb :) This is a neat question you’ve asked and I’m stoked to see more answers.

I was raised in Catholicism, though my family has, largely, stopped following that specific religion so closely (though many are still religious). I don’t follow any specific religion and am unsure what I consider myself - atheist fits well enough!

Somethings that stick for me are many of the kindnesses that live within bible stories. There’s a lot of good stuff in there, of course! And most of (what I consider to be) the good stuff is along the lines of being a good person. But some of it is kinda off-beat.

Like, there’s a bit in there about a proclamation that people should forgive debts after some seemingly arbitrary amount of time (seven years?) and that really jibed with me. Not the time part, but just forgiving pals/family you might have loaned money to. If I spot a friend $5 for something, I’m not going to hold it against them and ask them to repay. If they do repay? Great! But I will never expect it and I will not be offended if they do not.

Similarly with larger sums. If I’m okay to loan it to someone, I’m okay to lose it.

Anyhoo, I think it’s awesome that you like cows :) they remind me of big ol’ dogs and I like them very much. They can teach us more than they can fill our bellies, I think!

I dunno my favorite, but my most used in daily conversation is…

“Careful, man - there’s a beverage here!”

Wfh for sure

There’s tons of good comments here. Mine will echo some! I just wanted to share my experience.

I have three hobbies that I’ve explored since moving to a new city in my 30s - axe throwing, pinball, and making music.

I found a local axe league and joined for a season. One season has become four :) The people I throw axes with are wonderful and varied. While we may not have crossed paths otherwise, they’re fine folks and I consider many my friends.

I went to a local pinball bar for a casual tournament and have been going every other week since. It a supportive community and I’ve had a great time learning about the games and learning about the folks on my various teams.

I answered a Craigslist ad for a band looking for another member. We’ve clicked quite well and have practices together, go out together, record together, and even play shows!

Exploring your own hobbies in some sort of structured way might be a good step in your own quest :) Good luck!

Not me! But that’s only because I can’t roll for shit.

Looks real good, man!

Also, way to take a nice picture, man. Framed it real well.

That’s some cool artwork! I’m glad you found a good concentrate to vape :) they can be rough sometimes. I’ve never coughed harder than when I accidentally took a huge puff off a poor pen.

Disposable vapes got me (and I’m sure so many of us) through both good and bad times - they’ve been my go-to when I’m outta town and fit nicely in my suit pocket for weddings and shit, lol. Finding good stuff inside a disposable vape? Even better!

But I will say that, since swapping to a detachable battery, it’s been so much easier to find live resin, live rosin, and other good stuff in simple, battery-less cartridges. I haven’t busted into filling my own cartridges yet but that seems like the next logical step in stonerdom, lol.

Could be worth looking into for yourself, if you become a big ol’ vape dawg! Or even if you don’t - some of the battery options out there just seem awesome. I’ve got one that the cartridge like, fits partially inside of? So it’s pretty overall small and plenty discreet, lol.

Anyhoo, I’m rambling. Thanks for sharing, dude!

Just saw your updated pic - lookin’ real good!

And I found the ghost! You’ve got a sweet glassware shelf going :)

Dude, Stacy Keach is the Sarge that’s running the bust. One of his buddies is actor Rick Beckner, who looks kinda like Andy Samberg, who has started alongside Stacy Keach on cop show, Brooklyn 99.

This movie’s going great!

Just started heating up my Pax - now I know what I’m doing for the rest of the night! Thanks for the rec, man :)

I love it when people post pics like this. It’s like a really fun “I Spy” game without any objective, lol.

Like, that pack of Cloves. And the pug mask.

I’m having a great time!

I also really dig the old school computer surge protector + speakers. I don’t mean that disparagingly. As an elder millennial, it’s a nostalgia trip and I’m taking it!

Have a good night :)
