Insipid Posted September 25, 2024 Share Posted September 25, 2024 I haven't intently watched America's Got Talent in years, but the guy who won yesterday only won because of his sob story. A middle aged janitor who can song pretty well, but not well enough to win a national talent show, IMO. His rendition of Don't Stop Believing was quite poor. Packard might as well go on the show and perform smoke ring tricks at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazing Puck Posted September 26, 2024 Share Posted September 26, 2024 The reason why I love the Halloween season more than any other holiday is because there's no other time of the year where I can get a lot of enjoyment with very little effort. All I'm doing from now until November is watching movies and that's it. I really don't have to put in a lot of effort into finding a movie to watch. Most of the times it's either anime or Mystery Science Theater 3000. I'll even listen to some music the lofi channels on YouTube is already streaming Halloween music. That's all I have to do, watch movies and listen to music and it costs me 0 dollars. So for me Halloween is will always be the GOAT of holidays. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insipid Posted September 26, 2024 Share Posted September 26, 2024 I went to see the new Beetlejuice movie. It was a a rather Gen X experience. Mind you I don't think that's a bad thing, as I guess I'm now an old fart and I understood almost all of the references. And Tim Burton has always been more about style over substance. It was a fun movie nonetheless, and I'll probably watch the inevitable third one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[classic swim] Posted September 26, 2024 Share Posted September 26, 2024 I’ve fantasized about time travel for so long now, and the crummy thing is knowing future credit cards won’t work. That, and I can’t expect a whole bunch of cash to be thrown my way just because I’m from a shitty future. I could rob my broke ass self, but then I’d be creating a paradox. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no say in how severe the changes will be, but I can be cautious. A universe similar to this one would be fine too, I guess. I’d just be too nervous to wanna mess with multiverses completely.
