Personal Top Lists & Rankings

d.zelig said:What about any good concerts?

Not a single one was actually good whenever I was there😢

1. Belle & Sebastian are, to put it lightly, absolute geniuses. Which is why, Carol Jackson45🙂 :2up: 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 and 🙂

2. Con Air is, to put it mildly, a masterpiece. And as always, Steve Buscemi is just brilliant.

Alright, here's my list: Top 5 things that drive me nuts about American record stores:

5. When they have zero clue who a relatively famous band is.
4. When you actually want to buy something, but they only have three albums in the shop—all of which are on hold—even though they clearly have millions in the warehouse. You just have to wait days because, well, who knows when the shipment arrives? God forbid they actually have stock in on release day.
3. When they're blasting absolutely terrible music.
2. When they're busy gossiping on the phone about how they hit on some girl after a Motley Crue show, while you're in a huge rush to meet your girlfriend, but you just *have* to grab that new Interpol album... which, of course, isn't even in stock.
1. When they don't have a single clue what they're talking about (which is basically always).

Con Air is, to put it mildly, an absolute joke of a movie. And as usual, Steve Buscemi is particularly ridiculous.

Buying CDs just moments ago 🙂

Pretty much always.

3. Belle & Sebastian

1 and 3🙂—but with 2, you actually get 🙂 🙂 🙂

Carol Jackson45 said:That’s pretty much the rule.

Here are my top 3 bands that everyone seems to obsess over, but I find incredibly dull:
1. Sigur Rós
2. Mogwai
3. Belle & Sebastian

I’m with you on the first two—but I can't bring myself to agree on the third. 😍

Con Air is honestly such a dumb movie. That’s probably why people love it though.

Steve Buscemi is a legend 🙏 🙏 🙏

"Yeah, mr. pink sounds like mr. Pussy. Tell you what, let me be Mr. Purple. That sounds good to me, I'm Mr. Purple." 😍

Well, Mogwai is incredibly dull. Does that necessarily mean they're bad? 😁

I didn't say they were bad, just boring. 😁

Top 5 retro gadgets I still use or have been clinging to forever long after everyone else moved on, in no particular order:
1. A ball mouse
2. winamp 2
3. Your basic Walkman
4. Windows 98
5. An early 2000s CD burner

Since I'm already rambling here, quick question. I've got a propane canister from 2002 sitting at my place. How do I get rid of this thing? (Anyone want it?)

"Why can't we choose our own names?"
"I tried it before and it didn't work! I had four guys fighting over mr. Black!" 🙏

Steve Buscemi is a freaking genius, especially when he's working alongside guys like Quentin Tarantino and Joel Coen.

Honestly, "boring" is such a useless category to get hung up on. Being bad doesn't necessarily mean a movie is without merit (🙂 we love them anyway!)

1. and 3. me too. I just picked up an optical mouse about 2 or 3 months ago.😁

Isn't winamp 2 😠 😠 better?

It's definitely superior to version five; it just has a much fresher feel.🙄

Here you go, kid—here's the set: 🙂 🙂 🙂

Carol Jackson45 said:Here’s my top 5 list of old-school gadgets I either still use or held onto for a million years after everyone else moved on—just a random order, I guess:
1. A ball mouse
2. winamp 2 (specifically version 2.81, if we're being technical)

Man, I actually still pay for that first one, and that second one? That was a hard habit to break... almost a struggle, really.🙂 🙂

@Gregory Walker15/">@@Gregory Walker15: honestly, it runs better on old hardware 😁

I’ve got a wireless ball mouse and a wired optical one sitting right here, so I'm stuck trying to decide which one actually deserves the desk space...🙂

Is there anything more refreshing than a clear morning? I certainly hope you all have a wonderful day ahead! kaže:
@Gregory Walker15: It actually runs better on those old rigs. Doesn't it? 😁

Is there any other valid excuse? 😁

Could you potentially use an older skin on a fifth-generation device to save on resources? Wouldn't that be more efficient? 🤔

Sophia's choice.

anti-person said:still paying for this first one

Got an extra one lying around, but it tends to freeze up and hide in the corner of the screen. Not surprising, I guess—I'm a total disaster. 😬

Wronski, I don't want any wireless nonsense; I'd just end up losing my 😢

Carol Jackson45 said:1. the one with the ball

Man, I still have mine. It drives me absolutely insane. I seriously need to upgrade to something modern—this thing isn't exactly built for gaming where people are trying to gun you down around every corner.
