@bimmy-lee Yeah, same here. Although at home, we obviously have to switch out beer for Bacardi & Coke, on this side of the pond. I reserve beer either for when it's hot, or when I go to birthdays or other parties, so as not to be that guy who's the only one who drinks the more expensive stuff, when there's always plenty of cases of beer to go around in my circle of friends and family, so I've basically just learned to adapt myself over the years.

@HobbitGamer I've been curious about some of mine to the point where I've considered creating an alt a time or two. So far I've talked myself out of it. I don't need to know THAT badly, plus it would most likely add another bit of irritation to my day. XD
@bimmy-lee My aunt and uncle used to do something similar with two of my cousins. One of their bdays fell in late April, the other in early May. Those combined parties were fun (from a kid's perspective), but I'm sure they were a lot of work as well. I'd say it's mission accomplished if everyone had fun!
How that serves any kind of useful or constructive purpose, is completely beyond me.
I agree. Is there a way to permanently frame quotes and phrases around here?
I don't even bother downvoting posts these days. If there's something I dislike for some reason, I just pass it over. It IS a little hard sometimes in regards to blatant troll posts, but anyone with cognitive ability can identify those from far away. PSA: Feeding trolls, unless they're the playable kind in World of Warcraft, is unproductive.
No pain, no gain eh? Some of it amounts to the fact that I dislike formal dress and, more often than not, the occasions which call for that stuff. I find comfort much more important than how I look. Not that I'm colorblind when it comes to matching clothes, but I also don't have seizures if someone shows up to something in an interesting shirt and pants combo.
I'm most comfortable in Jeans and a t-shirt. Thankfully, I can get away with at least the former at my current job. I still stick to business casual shirts when on the clock.
Currently playing: Pokemon Scarlet DLC, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury (Switch)
So speaking of clothes, I have a nice salmon-colored (read: pink) dress shirt that I wear to work or social gatherings a lot. Pink is a pretty dope color. (I'm male, I guess I should specificy that,)
I don't like to dress up though. I wear slacks and a dress shirt to work sometimes, but a lot of days they don't care if I wear jeans and leave my shirt untucked. I used to wear suits a lot in another strange chapter of my life, but not so much anymore. Although I did wear one over the weekend to a celebration of life for a beloved family member, but that's different!
“Why do you speak of certain reversals—machinery connected wrong, for instance, as being ‘ass backwards’? I can’t understand that. Ass usually is backwards, right? You ought to be saying ‘ass forwards,’ if backwards is what you mean."
Speaking about Pink color, i have considered Magenta color as for one of my Chibi Boxer.
He loves kiddie stuffs, especially his Teddie Bear plushie and he is also a fan of Pink / Magenta color.
Also.... I have decided to create his new boxing outfits with some Magenta & Pink color, with the vibes of Sailor Moon and Naruto.
And i did the same thing to my other Chibi Boxers with their signature colors (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Aqua, Indigo, Purple, White, Black)
Hard to believe it's already been 10 years since I first revved up Flipnote Studio on my DSi. I wouldn't do anything of interest with it, no way, no how. To celebrate the occasion I suppose, somehow I got dragged back into fishing again somehow. They said last time they caught a baby shark.......Now I know why they want me along this time, they forgot to rev up the "doo doo doo doo doo doo" part!
@BougieBeetle Pink is indeed a dope color (as well as a swell one)!
@Anti-Matter If I was a boxer, I would probably have a pair of shorts which are pink, they would have to match my pink sweatsuit tho.
I made Sheldon & Mr. Randoms back on Flipnote Hatena, now i'm a kangaroo mod that has a funko pop collection!
I'm not keen politics since that stuff is spooky, I'd rather watch SpongeBob over Fox News anyways!
I agree. Is there a way to permanently frame quotes and phrases around here?
Permanently frame? As in a perma-link on the top of every page?
Either way, I have no idea. I don't think any of the mods know either, so that should probably be a question for site managers/web managers.
And to what end? I appreciate the compliment, but I'm probably too self-conscious to want to see something I said being chiseled in stone on the top of some web page. I'd rather just stick to a comical and (in this day and age) somewhat politically incorrect/gender sensitive forum signature...

Well, that's kind of the point, isn't it? What you can get away with, but on official occasions, something's gotta give. Maybe not at work, but unless I'm sorely mistaken, I don't see you going to a funeral or a wedding in jeans and a T-shirt. And the heels or at least fancy shoes must come into play at some point as well: sneakers don't really go with a nice dress...
And don't we all want to look nice sometimes? On some parties and receptions, you can't really sit anyways, so the fact that the fancy clothes are restricting our capacity to fully bend our legs without something annoyingly sneaking up in places that they shouldn't go to, isn't really that bad in those instances.
But I do get the downside of it, especially for women, who often have to turn up in tight-fitting tube dresses, or women's suit, whereas male suits are often a bit more loose around the body. Now that I'm mentioning this, I almost feel like apologizing on behalf of my gender. Women's collective memory capacity is like that of an elephant, so tight dresses might actually still remind them of the days that we men forced them into wearing and almost suffocating in those tight corsets, and high heels may also be a contributing factor to some...
I do know women who actually do like wearing them, or maybe they've fooled themselves into thinking they do, because of the many decades of societal brainwashing. Guess we'll never really know for sure.
@bimmy-lee yea i know im pretty stoked, Bo is the best. If anyone doesn't understand bimmys reference to tecmo bowl and Bo, go watch the family guy episode where Peter Griffin and Cleveland are playing it, you'll see what we mean lol
@RedderRugfish Yeah, either that or you're getting the third degree on how many hours you've actually played a game, to be able to come to that "wrong" conclusion. Or even worse: you're accused of not even owning the game at all, and just being a "hater".
Oh, internet. Stay classy...

I don’t know how to break this to you guys, so I’ll just be blunt; your opinions are wrong. Simple. It’s a known fact that Nintendo makes games that should appeal to everyone, and if even the tiniest facet of a game doesn’t appeal to you, well, you’re a fundamentally broken human and you can’t be helped.
@NintendoByNature - Running through the entire defense as Bo en route to a 95 yard touchdown is still one of my favorite thrills in gaming.
@BougieBeetle - Sorry to hear a life celebration was necessary, but I hope it was a fine celebration. Hey, I started listening to your pod a few weeks ago. I started at the beginning, and I’ve made my way through world one. It’s a good pod, and I think the construct is neat, an episode focused on each level of SMB. I’ll keep listening. Keep up the good work.
Anyone else get a silly amount of satisfaction when someone is deep diving in ancient threads, gets caught up in the moment, and then replies to someone on a comment they made five plus years ago?
@bimmy-lee you know what's even better? Doing it yourself and commenting on an article from years ago where they're trying to predict things and now we obviously know it's not true and calling them out for pipe dreaming 😜
