The "What's on your mind?" thread

For anyone wondering just how big that upcoming Imprint release of The Neverending Story would be…

Put some tacos along your walls to make sure.

Niece's dog won't shut up so I took out my hearing aids and put in my ear plugs and now I'm reading more System of the World.

Thinking about peak coming up and hope I do enough to help my fellow drivers do the best they can with the volume we're about to get.

What is the dog barking at? Is it outside or in?

Stupid thing is just yelping to yelp, no discipline whatsoever. Even my blind/deaf/brain-damaged dog wouldn't bark 24/7. He's inside. Supposedly my niece is moving out and I won't miss the worst dog ever when she does.

Looking at these BF deals. I guess $12.99 =the new $9.99? Best Buy had a ton at $9.99 last year but now that they’re out of the game we have less competition & price matching.

I would certainly prefer lower prices but for $12.99 I picked up Furiosa and Horizon. Both of those are really good deals for recently released titles.

Right. For newer releases, it’s ok but older catalog films…not so much. I picked up Furiosa as well. I’d like to get Horizon but I’m not even sure if the 4 parts will be concluded.

In terms of stamina, a dog barking is equivalent to a human speaking in casual conversational tone. That's why they can bark for hours on end.

I had to deal with a neighbor in the apartment right next to mine whose dog would bark at all times of the day but, of course, mostly at night and on through the morning hours.

Ear plugs, mufflers, ear plugs AND mufflers.....white noise, white noise AND ear plugs AND mufflers.....nothing helped.

It took months of complaints, lost sleep, and missed work 'till, one day, I came home to see my neighbor's door propped open with a vacuum cleaner, as he was carrying bags of trash out to the dumpster in multiple trips.

Yep, he was cleaning out to move out, finally. And, I even heard him reflexively yelling at his barking dog to "Shut Up!", which I translated as "This is all your doing.....!"

Sincerely, without hyperbole, it was one of the greatest days of my life.

The snow is coming down but not sticking to the roads yet. On track for 8”

[VictoryAtNight]

My 3-day weekend starts. I’ve got lots of things that I want to do.

- GameStop
- Target
- TJ Maxx
- movie (maybe)
- order pizza (Dominos……maybe)

I probably won’t do all of it.

Why is that silly and how many titles did it include?

It came with six films. I guess because they're super guilty pleasures. People seem to love 'em though which I why I decided to go for it. I've seen a few of them but it's been a while.

That's a good deal. I didn't think it was silly as the series is popular enough to spawn so many sequels.

It’s still $7.99 if you want to “bite”..heh. I’m actually looking forward to watching them as I didn’t know David Hasselhoff appeared in a few.


Site is super slow tonight.

I do think that's a good deal but I only get digital if it's included with a disc. I've made one exception when Amazon gave me some digital credit so I got a movie nearly free.

The site has been running slow for me since yesterday morning.

In case ya’ll missed it. Gonna be one expensive 2025….
