Daniel Bailey7 said:The ultimate playlist of songs you absolutely CANNOT listen to while reading anything by Houellebecq

Honestly, listening to music while reading just sucks for me—reading requires your full attention, I guess. Otherwise, you just end up wanting to chuck the book out the window. Especially if it's a serious read, of course.

SO fuckin emo 😁

I don't really get this your obsession with bands competing against themselves...

Well, yeah—you have to compete with yourself. That's how you actually get good at things, not even just with music.

Man, it's just music—just vibes.
We're here to mess around, drink, dance, hook up...

It seems like you don't take music too seriously, which is probably why you don't feel the need to compare albums. For me, music is music—it's not just background noise for partying or hooking up, though everything is better with it, obviously. I listen to it for what it is, and I like to put things in context. I'd never say it's just music, but I won't go on about it since I'm already being way too emo 😁

If I remember right, you're into Radiohead. Me too. But I respect them a lot more knowing they started out making totally conventional stuff before they had the guts to record Kid A. Honestly, Kid A would be just as great if they'd later pivoted to sounding like Maroon 5, but I’d definitely have a different opinion of the band itself.

wiredfalcon2 said:you?
😁

yeah, me. I never say that—stupid questions definitely exist, though. Like yours, I guess. Whatever.🙂

wiredfalcon2 said:Why does everyone feel the need to constantly compare the debut to the sophomore album?

Honestly—which idiot decided there’s no such thing as a stupid question?😁

Adopted—and basically saved from a pretty grim fate.

though I guess you might be one of those vet techs?

Laura Gonzalez44 said:my top 3 Chupa Chups flavors:
1. strawberry cream

best one, hands down. I usually go for anything creamy, but this one is the winner 🙏

I used to be way more into those old cartoons when I was a kid—maybe just nostalgia, I guess. Besides that, wasn't there some kind of late-night thing going on? How late were you staying up, Jack?

Melissa Collins41 said:@gentlepuma20/">@@gentlepuma20 - true, but this chili life is a solo act—I doubt he’d really hack it if he had to live indoors.

Wait, how does a dog just live alone? Like, how does he stay warm in the winter—or even find food? 🙂

Michael Newman50 said:What are you yelling about? You basically missed out on adopting forty of them just recently! 😈

I'm yelling because I’d love to have a whole pack—but realistically, I can barely manage one. Even so, I love this one like he's my own kid.😁

Pen, does your dog live alone? Here's some evidence against the mrkvin theory🙂
don is such a sweetheart.

hm, if it's just medium, then I guess it isn't really a crust. and I don't know much about those dogs.
Laura Gonzalez44, Kevin Chavez3 is right, though.

So this one is pretty massive, plus it comes in black too.

Kevin Chavez3 said:😕 Seriously, have you even seen a Kraster dog? This one doesn't even look close.

How so? He's big, he's an Australian Shepherd, he's dark brown, has short hair, and drinks Bud Light... what else is there to check off?

And besides, Kraster dogs don't let their owners lead them on a leash. It's actually the other way around. 😁

ooooh 🙂

Sven looks like a total pushover. Not really my vibe—the kind of dog that just follows the owner's every move on a leash.🙂

Sean Lee7 said:She’s chunky, and honestly, she squeezed through a gap that even I couldn't fit a hand through.

The pup isn't fat, she's just... curvy, I guess. Still, how she got through that hole is beyond me. Plus, she's probably one of the cutest things ever.😍
I need her.

Carol Jackson45 said:Oh, they definitely love it. Retrievers are probably the biggest manipulators on the planet—it's kind of ridiculous. They pull that face where they act like they haven't eaten since the time of Christ, while you're just sitting there enjoying a sandwich, acting like they're literally starving to death. Then they give you that look, too—you know, the "look how cute and irresistible I am" thing. And if that doesn't work, they'll just rest their head on your knee and start limping a little. Total little opportunists—they'll guilt-trip you out of your lunch in a heartbeat.

It's not just limited to retrievers, though.🙂

2. black & tan English Cocker Spaniel

😍
English Cocker Spaniels are honestly amazing... if only they weren't so pricey.
I'm not really into the tiny ones, though.

Laura Gonzalez44 said:I mean, I don't really get it—but whatever.😁

First off, you're missing 😵 😁
And second—you mentioned those boots were pink, but I didn't see many pink boots around Chicago last winter—so maybe it was just a thing in your neck of the woods, even though I know you aren't actually there, it's just what's listed under your "location." Is that clear enough now?

Laura Gonzalez44 said:I guess I don't get it then. 😵 🤣

it was just a joke, really😵

Laura Gonzalez44 said:I'm not out in Columbus. 😁

😵 I guess that's kind of the whole point.

pritt, boots are fine, but that jacket 😱
and when do you actually wear them?

lonebison37 said:which kind of supports your point—since you're claiming SOMEONE TOLD YOU YESTERDAY that they were actually the ones behind the Requiem for Dreams soundtrack. total fanboy move, I guess.😁

this wasn't some imaginary thing she made up—no way, kid.😁

maybe that’s just a thing over in your neck of the woods in Columbus😁

It felt like every other woman had her pants tucked right into her boots—and half of them were just plain brown 🙂
only really the bold, alternative types like Anne Frank would ever be caught dead in those fuzzy boots 😁

Michael Newman50 said:Women wearing combat boots with their pants tucked in—hopefully we don't get an epidemic of that over here, too. 🙂

Where on earth were you living last winter? 🤔
