  1. Unfortunately it looks like TP shortages won’t be getting better for a bit 😞 paper mill in Jay Maine where my brother works just exploded. Among the items they produce is TP 😞

    Luckily everyone made it out safely ❤️

  2. Due to Covid-19, Amazon is giving priority to items people need the most. Toilet paper takes a month but Echo Dots and Kindle Fires are next day.

  3. How much weight have you gained during our captivity?

  4. Apparently Disney's attempting to remake Home Alone. Is nothing sacred?

  5. I want to to apply to be a moderator here. 

  6. Goddamnit. Got a call from my boss today telling me we are in fact 'essential' after I've had the week off. I'm expected to show up for work on Monday. In Wayne County. In DETROIT. I'm still on the fence...

      What line of work are you in? If it's not truely essential you can stay home and they cannot fire you for it.

  7. RIP Kenny Rogers He was 81. Rogers “passed away peacefully at home from natural causes under the care of hospice and surrounded by his family.

  8. The local Walmart is completely out of TP.  I wonder if people have wiped out the dollar stores too.

      I watched some dingbat pay gas station prices for 6 four packs of Charmin TP tonight. I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh.

  9. Let's be safe: no more than 1000 twitch viewers in the same stream. 

  10. I've heard it all now. They are suggesting that Old people (Over 70s) should be banned from watching football matches.

    People who have been loyally supporting their local teams for decades. For one thing it's discriminatory for another it is downright ludicrous.

    What a joke. You get it you get it. You fight it, you get over it. If you don't you don't. You can't escape fate.

     

    Also Roy Hodgeson one of the managers would be banned by this stupid nonsense. 

     

    I wonder how many old people have been scared shit-less by all this news 24 coverage and are now holing themselves up in doors scared. The press have a responsibility to report facts which they don't. It's all bloody fiction!

     

  11. Has anyone else noticed that @Cebus Capucinis hasn't been here in nearly 6 years?

  12. Does anybody still save their change and wrap them up in coin rolls to be converted to cash at the bank anymore? I stopped using Coinstar since they started to increase their fees.

  13. this is bullshit that game companies can release so many BROKEN games now...and get away with it...UBIsoft is on my shit list now...

  15. R.I.P. Windows 7. The best Windows OS that Microsoft ever made. I don't care what anyone says. Screw Windows 8 & 10. 

  16. For some strange reason, I've had 'Blue Monday' (New Order) stuck in my head lately...  Don't know why...

      Fun tid bit, Orgy's cover is the first song I danced to at The Sanctuary in Toronto back in the late 90's. Man that place was wild. The place is long gone now. Guess what is in that building now? A f*uckin' Starbucks :x

      Blue Monday is one of my favorite songs. New Order and Orgy's cover are both on my playlist.

  18. No one starts counting at zero (maybe unless you're using binary). Certainly no one counts years starting from zero. Therefore the decade has another year to go people. 1-10... 11-20... 21-30... these are decade counts.

  19. I feel bad today because even all our efforts, doctor told me my wife has near to zero hopes because brain cancer advances, cannot receive more radiotheraphy, and the chemotheraphy only helps for the lung.

  20. :mad: There's nothing more frustrating than students who blatantly CHEAT, especially after the instructor (me) goes out of his way to be available to answer questions, in and out of class, even answering e-mails late at night. :mad:

      Making yourself as available as you are and those students still choosing to cheat shows underlying character flaw and lack of pride in their work. While not outright cheating like you describe, I have had students in the past that have tried to come to the bare minimum amount of classes to pass and then expect to be able to get top marks for their minimal effort. Of course I grade them accordingly. Same students then wonder why they don't succeed in the program going forward with new material the same way those that have put the time and effort into their studies have. It's mind blowing. Stick to your guns dude, they have earned and deserve whatever grade you give them.

  21. Went to pay off the last $600 on my Xmas layaway today but it someone paid it for me already :-o didnt believe it till the cashier showed me the computer screen. There are still good people out there! Thank you whoever you are and bless you!

      Someone would have to know you had a layaway to pay it. Very cool whoever it was.

  22. Reading positive AtariAge comments

  23. With Mr. Robot, The Man in the High Castle & Rick&Morty, it has been a wild ride for television. 

  24. The Malandorian - coming to a torrent site near you. Lag-free presentation!

  25. If it were up to me, I would have ended the Terminator franchise with Salvation being the third and final film. Of course, the Universal Studios ride is what Salvation should have been.
