😢 I don't see any other way out than to go grab a drink—maybe if I drown my sorrows enough... Gerovital... an entire liter of it.

😁

<@Methical> did anyone else hear about the new dual-proc board for low-end Intel processors? it's optimized for playing 80's mp3's.
<@Methical> They call it the Duron-Duron.

I always thought I was a total geek, but I don't get this one... does this mean I might actually not be...? 😁

Man, this is just incredibly boring

Aside from number 2 (too few) and number 18 (way too many), I wouldn't have even thought of a list like that.

Dana Anderson4 said:Man, back in our day, we were out at those house parties just vibing to Drake. 😬

🤣
I can already picture it: those bedraggled, rain-soaked faces of the Drake crew, trudging home in the early morning hours after some wild party, looking absolutely defeated. 😂

anch_io said:Is there anyone else here who would actually want to go see his band, the Apollo Lunar Module, live?😬

That’s me, right there. Though, I can't help but wonder... if the venue is indoors, is there any chance of some loose equipment or debris just falling out of the rafters and landing on my head?😬

Samuel Murphy6 said:Total garbage. Snow, winter, and all that crap don't deserve more than a single mention.

Man, talk about being clueless. Boots are primarily meant for mud.

mud 😍

(I mean, sure, it’s a fact that trekking through mud is better in boots, but it’s not always 😁 )

Samuel Murphy6 said:Ugh, Japanese sandals and loafers? Please. 🙄 Total hillbilly vibes. 🙂

Real men stick to sneakers, heavy-duty snow boots, and rubber flip-flops that can actually handle the salt on the roads. 🙂

And where are the work boots?

😁

The only issue is that this was supposed to be an introduction to the Zonda f, and readers will probably expect me to actually write something about the car itself... 🙂 Maybe I'll try to finish it in this style after all...

🙂 🤣 🙏

The only real problem is that the prophetess and I don't exactly share the same taste when it comes to design, but I'm just nitpicking now.
Finish the piece and save it for some point in the near or distant future when you finally have your own car magazine🙂 and then publish it.

Sean Lee7 said:Since we're talking about cars that were basically part of the family...

1. Reno 4
2. Reno 4
3. Reno 4
4. Smart Car

I'm not sure if there's an actual pattern here...

1. Reno 4
2. Reno 4
3. Reno 4
4. Reno 4
5. Chevy Cavalier
Total amateurs. 🥳

😬

Alright, I have to admit, I squeezed two Citroens in there before hitting the Chevy. 😳

stormyviper11 said:A friend of mine has it; I actually borrowed it from him a while back for a marathon of bizarre movies I hosted at my place (featuring Plan 9 from Outer Space, Private diaries of Rock Hudson, and I can't remember which Russo Meyer flick). Feel free to reach out to him at toto_tito_tati@yahoo.com.

Beneath the Valley of the Ultra-Vixens, plus there's some Plimpton to wrap things up.
It was a pretty solid night 🙂

By the way, Pink Flamingos... it’s undeservedly famous just because of Divine and the dog poop scene. I say "undeservedly" because the movie is fantastic in every other regard. It wouldn't be any less impactful without Divine.
And that park scene with the exhibitionists? Easily one of the funniest things ever put on film.

Prince said:maybe the guy was just watching the replay 😬

stormyviper11 said:Back when I was still riding that high of delusional optimism, convinced I’d actually make it through college, I seriously considered picking up Portuguese as a second major. My brother just laughed and told me, "People study Italian for Dante, or German for Goethe, but learning Portuguese just so you can read Sennine interviews in the original language? That's a bit much, even for you..." 😁

🤣

stormyviper11 said:Well, you have to root for the Japanese just like you do for the Finns—no real dilemma there...

Some of the best expressions I know are mostly used within my own family, or maybe a tiny little circle of people around me.

Toplak
Kovataka
Setefatski
Dvoprug
Oteščilo
Ac ac
Podguzalo
Zabl

I hope Jerry Mitchell62 sees this; he’d definitely remember some of these...

And where's the spit?
And the uncle too.
😁

this😍

Man, what even is a bike without fenders??!! And a modern one at that.
A real bike should look like this! 😬 (Though, to be fair, I’ve since added a front basket for my snacks 😍 )

rutvica said:Vashti Bunyan released her second album, 35 years after the first one 🙂 Pretty strange.
It took me months of dipping in and out before the debut actually clicked for me. But now? I love it. So maybe in a few months, this new one will hit just as hard.

The first album was sweet to me from the jump, but nothing more. Maybe a little too mellow. That was until I read the backstory of how it was recorded. Once that clicked, I fell completely in love with it. 😍
That image of the girl driving her wagon across the entire country while singing "just another diamond day" 😍 😍 and then there's this one 😍

Is the new one similar? Does it have that same vibe?

Bad Seed said:A friend who was hanging out with us supposedly told her buddies—who eventually realized we weren't there anymore—that "they just passed away somewhere near our place," and she just kept on walking. 🤣 🤣 😍

😂 🤣

Maybe I’m just getting old and nostalgic because I can't recall a single classic beauty who could pull off a reaction like that, but if we're talking about anyone from the modern era, it's definitely
"Washington, D.C., the heart of the USA..." 🙂

stormyviper11 said:Just to clear up my dream about buying a new TV: my brother told me this morning that ours suddenly started smoking and caught fire last night. I'd say that's a pretty strong argument against trying to repair it.

🤣 😂

d.zelig said:I should probably mention the TerraHawks—those Deluxe 80s versions. 😍

Honestly, it’s probably the only series from my childhood that I could still sit down and binge today without feeling any cringe. (And I'm not even counting those Chuck Jones shorts or anything in that vein; those are just classics by default.)
