@EaglyTheKawaiiShika What's not?

Can anyone recommend some good wired headphones for under $100?

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika **** I'll delete that comment

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika I dunno. Article comments are kinda out of my jurisdiction. But I would just recommend to avoid participating in back and forth discussions of that sort. It’s kind of a lose lose thing.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika @EaglyTheKawaiiShika I keep getting a ****ing 502 and it won't let me delete the comment

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika it's an indie site let's not be too hard on it.

@Kermit1Pineapple Sony MDR ZX are generally good-ish headphones, and I think that they're below 20 USD.

Currently away with family in another country and had to have a tooth removed. Currently sat around feeling sorry for myself while I wait for the pain killers to kick in. Can’t say this was ever on my bucket list of things to do in another country.

Cheers! Thankfully the painkiller has kicked in now. I am hoping I time it better going forwards so there is no crossover for pain over the next few days.

There's a never ending supply of toxic random people lurking article comments. Almost anything can trigger those dumpster people. And those people almost exclusively live in the comments, never interact in the forum.

Eel summed it up well, it's likely "a lose, lose" situatin to debate anyone in the comments you don't already know from the forum. Even debating someone you know in there can also attract toxic randoms.

@Pizzamorg hope that goes well for ya bud! If you don’t mind me asking, what country are you in?

Thank you! I am in Spain on one of the Canary Islands (Lanzarote), my family moved here a few years back so I try and get back here over the holidays.

Good morning everyone! Ima pretend like the server isn't put together with cheap, wet epoxy and say I didn't just have to enter my 100% correct password in 6 times.

Anyone else playing Whamageddon this December? I had a scare yesterday, but I'm still in it.

@Zybrissa I honestly have no idea what that is. This December, I'm watching anime with my brother and trying to figure out what anime characters are saying before I read the subtitles. It's hard cause my rock brain doesn't wanna learn Japanese even though I wanna learn it so I can go to Japan with my brother. Akihabara is, like, the place you go to for technology, and he loves technology, so I wanna go with him once I remember how to say you're welcome in Japanese. I can remember how to say thank you, but not you're welcome. It's really weird. And for Christmas, I'm gonna bake a wreath cake, as I'm a good baker. And it's time for me and my brother's annual watching of ToraDora.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko It's a mind game people play for the first 24 days of December. You have to avoid hearing a certain Christmas song (which is played ad nauseum in certain countries) by the band Wham!, hence the name. If you hear it even once, you fail.

@Zybrissa Ok, that actually sounds really fun. What song do you have to avoid?

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko "Last Christmas", which was out in 1984. I think there are some variations which use other songs, but that's the original game.

I'm just glad I've finally got past one day.

@Zybrissa I've never heard of that song, so I think I'll switch it out for All I Want For Christmas is you to make it harder. But, as of right now, I'm listening to Christmas music, but Japanese, cause I'm a weirdo who prefers when songs are sung in Japanese. Maybe it's subconciously helping me learn or something.
