Snoopy lives in a very bad part of town.

20 year old stepson is playing Xbox One Madden and NBA 2K20 online with his little brother. It's kinda fun to hear the game and them screaming to each other (over the Xbox network/sometimes over the phone) over plays. The banter and such is fun to hear. Vicarious gaming.

A dear friend called sobbing this morning. Her son (20 years old) passed away this morning at 4am. He's been battling a rare genetic condition all his life. There's a gofundme campaign if you'd like to help. Prayers and good vibes are also appreciated. What a sad way to ring in the new year.

A friend foisted a massive amount of cheese cake on us last night because her son is 350 pounds, and she doesn't want him eating all of it. She piled it all up on ONE plate. It was like 8 inches tall -- various flavors -- cherry and strawberry. The sheer weight of it compressed it down into a gloopy mess -- like a cheesecake soup. I think it was kept at room temp with how gloopy it was. I was afraid it'd leak out because there wasn't enough tinfoil over the plate. So I stopped a few miles down the road and slid it out onto the roadside. Don't want that gloopy mess getting my car dirty. Just the thought of all the turkey and stuffing I've been eating lately makes me want to walk 5 miles everyday.

Alan Hale Jr. is on The Andy Griffith Show right now, and his character calls Barney "Little Buddy". I wonder if that was an ad lib which he later used on Gilligan's Island in his role as Skipper. Both shows were on CBS, so it might've been a writer(s) responsible for the line.

All 5 Phantasm movies are on Tubi now, so if y'all wanna have a Phantasm movie marathon this weekend, go for it. GF and I watched the original last night (it's remastered -- beautiful video/audio). GF had never seen any of the Phantasm films. We're watching Phantasm II tonight.

All this stayin' home bidness is getting to me -- cabin fever. Is there some solution I can pour into my ear to fix the problem? Maybe it can go in one ear, cleanse my brain, and run out the other ear.

Get outside and go running... or walking or biking. DO something ACTIVE. Get some exercise. Eat healthy food, not high-sugar, high-calorie processed crap. Read a book. A physical book. Better yet, read a book out on the back porch, if you have one. How about that TODO list you've had sitting around for years? Take care of some of those things. Start with number 1 and work your way down. Are you wanting to learn an instrument? Start! A new computer language? There are a billion tutorials, start on chapter one and get going. Call your grandmother and talk to her on the phone. Talk about positive things, things going well, good stuff in the future.

Apple's upgrading Ted Lasso this season. He's getting the new M1 CPU.

Archaeologists have discovered the first ever what they are calling motion video/graphics. It dates from ancient Greece and is sort of like the Antikythera Mechanism. It is a complex geared device with a space for these sort of key like things that are separate from the device itself. The device is connected to a large abacus like thing with hundreds of beads connected to the device via levers. They put one of the key things into the device (fit precisely) and cranked it, and the abacus thing showed an animal running. This is the first storage media we know of. One of the other key cylinders produced a graphic of a well endowed woman with obvious breasts bouncing up and down. This is being called potentially the first ever porn movie in existence. Most baffling is the phrase "Please be kind, Rewind" that is written in ancient Greek on each of the cylinders.

Cedar Point theme park here in Ohio has had to close a few days in the week due to not having enough employees. Even though they are paying $20 an hour. So come to Ohio if you want to make about $40k/year making overpriced munchies for families or tearing tickets at the roller coaster. Not making light of their work, I am sure it's hard, as most jobs are. Rent is cheap in Ohio. $700-$800 a month in most areas will get you a nice apartment with a pool, gym, etc..

Didn't have to go to work for 4 days, so I didn't shower for 4 days.
Today, I gave myself a haircut, showered and then shaved the 4 days of beard off. It feels great to be clean.

Yeah unless you have a physical job, your clothes will be basically clean for a week. I do shower daily 98% of time. it's just I was off work for 5 days and we got dumped on snow wise. So every morning I'd get up and go out and shovel snow and remove snow from GF's car so she could take her kids places, and then I'd just end up on couch after watching YouTube or gaming.

Do people get some weird, sick fascination out of wasting peoples' time on FB marketplace, CL, OfferUp, etc.? I posted a 2-3 year old small sofa for my neighbor -- mint shape, non-smoking home. $100 obo. Had like 20 people message me, but no one actually came to buy it. I even had appt's set up for like 5 of them to come buy it, all no-shows. Finally, he got tired of the BS and put it on the curb, and a lady asked if I still had it. I said yeah but it's on curb. I would've taken $50 for it I said, and she said she would've totally bought it. So then I said well it's still on curb if you want it. Gave her my address, and she said she'd be right over. Never showed up even for a free nice sofa. It's still sitting out there 3 days later. Humans are bizarre.

Don't you love it when you call out an inconsiderate arsewhole for their crappy behavior, and then they try to turn it around onto you. "Now you made me feel bad", he said instead of a simple "sorry". Um, you should feel bad or better yet don't be an arse in the first place.

Welcome to the age of zero accountability. There's no common sense. No scruples. No right or wrong. Thus, no closure. It's 100% perspective. It's baffling and unbelievably discouraging to know that there are those who find this to be progression when, in fact, it's the complete fucking opposite. I genuinely hate people like this. You try to call them out and they retaliate against you. Selfish, infantile folks whose behavior is detrimental to society.

eBay, grrrr. I ordered a splint for my foot for a painful bunion 2 weeks ago, and still not here. Then today I get a slip from USPS saying I owe $4.55 postage on the package for that item. This makes the 2nd package off eBay in a month that needs me to pay postage. Both items came with "free" shipping. I already bought a better model off Amazon for same price, and it came in 2 days. My eBay habit may be coming to an end.

Facebook is good for something after all. It sure lets you know the general IQ of your friends, relatives, co-workers based on the bull s--t they post, like, comment about, etc..

First fall with a mower with a bagger. I love it. I just mow up the leaves and dump them over the fence. Way easier than raking. I like to keep the backyard clean for our dog, or else I'd just leave them for the winter for food for the grass. I don't worry about the leaves in the front and side yard. If you have a mower that can take a bagger, they are awesome and a good purchase. I had a non bagger which I sold to a friend and bought this bagger off CL for $60 in mint shape.

Gee, thanks Dollar General for putting out the Halloween candy and decor (spooky dog skeletons) 2 months early. I am already feeling old enough. The time is flying by.

Gee, thanks Tom Selleck for being so authoritative and sincere about reverse mortgages. Millions of us will probably inherit nothing from the folks now.

GF's 24 year old son bought a non-working Xbox Series S (no controller) off his buddy for $125, and supposedly his friend's an 'electronics expert" and said it just needs a PS. So GF's son paid $100 for a new PS off eBay. I replaced it for him, and it still doesn't work (just powers on for 2 seconds). Now his buddy says to try a new SSD. Pull out that "parts cannon" and fire an SSD, maybe a mainboard at it. Being cheap is expensive. He could've bought a brand new Series S with a new controller for $299. Instead he has a $225 paperweight. So after he buys a controller and SSD, it will cost more than a new one would've. And that's IF the SSD is the culprit.

Google Messages app keeps crashing on my phone -- Moto G4. Anyone else have this problem? I reinstalled the app and same thing.

Hunter (1984-1991) is on Tubi - all seasons. Cool formula -- tough rule breaker paired with a beautiful fellow misfit on the force. Mopar heaven with McCall's 1984 Dodge Daytona Turbo Z which was later upgraded to the newer version. I've watched 4 episodes already. "Works for me."

It's just a website that shows movies/TV shows. They pay for it by showing commercials occasionally.

I think there's also a Tubi app, but the website works as well.

I am starting to doubt my doggo's grasp on the English language. She thinks "DQ" means she's getting a small dish of vanilla ice cream from the DQ. Sure, we've playfully told her we are going for ice cream, a treat, etc. from DQ, and she now thinks DQ automatically means ice cream and she starts to get excited and wags her tail. What if we meant some other DQ? As in disqualification?

I am surprised the "expert panel" predicted such a close score in the Ohio-Michigan game -- 36-34, 28-24, etc.. Buckeyes destroyed Michigan. I knew it wouldn't be that close.
Today, I gave myself a haircut, showered and then shaved the 4 days of beard off. It feels great to be clean.
