  • I’m on the latter part of 30 and I’m in bumble and tinder. I decided to give myself a month on them and if nothing happens I’ll remove it. I’m not exactly on the prowl but I feel like I’ve given myself enough time to “work on myself” since my last relationship. So I’m testing the water. Also all my friends are all hitched or have kids, so there isn’t a lot of mutual single friends.

    It’s either, super model hot bot, or no thanks… There really isn’t an in-between. I understand that sounds shallow, but that’s been my experience. Then when you finally get matched no one actually makes conversation. Like I’m not going to sit here and try to drag a conversation out of you.

    You’re right too. The apps are also really only focused on just trying to get you to spend money, not getting you a match.

    Tinder for example says I have 20+ “matches” but I can’t see them unless I pay. And when I swipe it’s not like any of those people are put up front. You only get 20 likes and none of them will be the people that have “matched” with you.

    It’s also not cheap either. It’s like 20 dollars a month.

    Bumble is even worse.

    It’s a stark contrast from how it was several years ago.


  • It’s usually less that that too. Typically if you show you have got your license within the time of getting the ticket they let you go. If he just showed up and said he has an appointment or was going to make one, the judge would’ve made another date so that he could prove he got his license. Then no fine or jail.

    Happened to me. I was pulled over without a license. Immediately went and got my license. They made a date but the mailing address they sent to I wasn’t there. Being dumb I thought meant it was handled.

    Lo and behold like 10 years later, when I’m getting hired for my current job they say I have a bench warrant. I went down to the courthouse the next day, the judge gave me a real weird look since it’s been like 10 years, and said " do you have your license " I showed it to him, and then let me go.





  • Rimworld is one of those games I’m addicted to for like 2 weeks non-stop.

    Then once I have 30 colonists and they can’t even keep the floor clean cuz I have too many things going on, I’m done because i know I’ll never “finish” anything. Even though every time I start that game I tell myself I’ll finally build the spaceship this time.


  • Dude, ok. The responses you received imo are somewhat disingenuous, and bandwagonish.

    Is it the answer to Skyrim or Fallout? God no.

    It is fun? Yes. It’s Skyrim/Fallout in space. Don’t expect much more than that.

    You want an ultra realistic space fairing game? Play Elite Dangerous.

    You’ll have have at least 40-60 hours of fun. I’m not trying to be a shill here. There are a decent amount of things you can extract from Starfield for why you won’t like it. However, it’s still something worthy of experiencing.

    Especially if you steal it.






  • This totally off topic, but back in the day Chad used to mean taking a giant dump or being a little piece of shit. So to me, you basically said the same thing twice.

    I feel like the whole reason that changed was a Dad told his son “stop being a Chad kid”. So, when the kid asked what that meant, the Mom stepped in and said it means a cool dude. Then started telling all his friends “My Dad thinks I’m a Chad!”

    So now its a giant Dad joke that has whooshed a whole generation.





  • Man some people just can’t be pleased. I’ve been playing the game all week, and it’s fantastic. It delivered exactly what I thought it was going to be.

    Sure there are some bugs, and some complaints about a few minor things, but as a whole this game is spot on.

    I’m just not sure what people are expecting. It’s Fallout/Skyrim in space, and it’s exactly what I thought it was going to be.
