i need a valid reason why you failed to name yer cat after a character in the castlevania series.

@ogo79 Because Sanya from Strike Witches is better. -w-

Yeah. I heard he's buried on the New York Giants 50 yard line.

@Tasuki oh, really? Who buried him there?

@ReaderRagfish Crystal Pepsi!! It still exists??? That's awesome! I haven't seen it in like 20 years or more. I sincerely hope those ebay sales aren't actually vintage 90s Pepsi....

The best was Pepsi Kona though around the same time. Pepsi and coffee. Best soft drink ever. Sadly it only lasted a year or so.

Funnily enough, I have to specifically ask for unsweetened tea around here. Sweet tea is the default I guess.

This season’s Fortnite battle pass outfits and stuff are cool and Halloweeny. Looks like tomorrow I’ll be putting on a jazz vinyl and doing some challenges.

@NEStalgia @ReaderRagfish Actually it's been back a few times. They brought it back last.summer then a couple of times in the spring and the latest last month. I usually see it at Walmart.

We sell certain things at work and being depressed I had to buy a new plushie.

(After visiting the apple App Store)

Wait a second... Since when is Monster Hunter Stories a mobile game...?

You need to ask?

I'm back from the show and loved it! It was VERY Japanese lol. They had some technical difficulties at a couple of points, but they were easily forgiveable. All of the tech coordination and choreography that went into it...whew. It's easy to see how they got the Gold Buzzer!

@ReaderRagfish I have always liked it to be honest. (Except when they changed it and add fruit flavor to it). Then again my city was a test market for it in the 90s but I liked it. I was happy that they brought it back.

Never played the main series titles, but extraction is a nice rail shooter.

False. Root Beer dates back to at least the 19th century. When it originally began being sold commercially, it was proposed to call it "Root Tea" (as that's essentially what it was; also as the guy who began to distribute it didn't drink alcohol), but the thought was that in order to appeal to a working class market (and men in general), it was dubbed "Root Beer".

There was however a large increase in the consumption and popularity of root beer during Prohibition, but its origins, and that of its name, date back much earlier.

Now I want to play Root Beer Tapper and watch Lawless again. Thanks.

Woohoo! It’s frydae!! And the last one of the month, at that. Throw together my summary reports for executive management then coast through till it’s time to get dinner at IHOP with my best friend. Then...Fortnite.

I have an eye doctor appt. today.... my eyes are gonna look like I'm high for a few fours with the dilation, but at least I'll be getting new glasses for the first time in 3 years!

Yayeah! New glasses rock hard! Can they do the exam without the dilation? I know some insurance policies require you to pay the $30-35 extra, though. Either way, that's pretty awesome, yo.

Funny bit; A few weeks ago, my office mate and I learned by accident that if we work with the ceiling lights off, our assistant presents less questions to us during the day. Now my office mate is out on medical for a month, and the past four days I've left the lights off. I just had to email her about the assistant, stating only "Ice beam no longer effective, subject has adapted to environment. Pray."

Apparently some company is going to purchase land or something where I go to this big flea market/ultimate yard sale and turn it into a scrap yard. If this happens, this might be the final year where I can find stuff & things there : U And just when I managed to haggle something SpongeBob related!

I ate pop tarts

@ReaderRagfish Eating poptarts every day sounds like a really bad idea

It's probably no different from eating a bowl of cereal for breakfast.

I mean, unless you're eating like, a full box of poptarts every morning.
