lol I can't tell if you're being serious or mocking me because I felt the need to share that with everyone It's happened a couple times where I went to play a song off her first album but found that it's not in there yet. I have second and third albums but I haven't even opened them yet.

I'm at Starbucks and I went to the bathroom and unplugged my phone and took it with me and when I came back, I said something like, "who took my phone?! empty your bags right now" and the three people at the table got a little worried. Should have seen the look on this one guy's face

It ok. I forgive you

I haven't seen Concussion but I like that line from Albert Brooks about the doctor going to war against an organization that owned a day of the week. I kind of wish the NFL owned every day of the week during the season.

Bought something at a nearby Walmart today. The pickings in the movie section at all the Walmarts around here have always been pretty thin. Usually it's just a handful of new title every week to go with the random cheap DVDs and some scattered Blu-rays. But what I noticed today that surprised me was how many copies of straight-to-video titles they have, like a few of Antonio Banderas' recent efforts. Just surprised me considering how little or how non-existent their stock is of a lot of significantly bigger movies.

The Walmarts around here are like that as well. I'm often amazed at the number of obscure, low-budget, direct-to-video movies I see nestled among all the big well-known movies.

What amazes me is the abundance of DVDs they stock, makes no sense its 2017 but they seem to think its 1997.

that's why i refuse to use wal-mart as a choice for buying movies. i learned a while back that they hardly ever have new releases put out in time (usually takes them a week or 2). and the employees know **** all and could not care less about anything you ask them.

Don't DVDs still sell better than Blu-ray? There are titles that Target will only carry the DVD version of, mostly TV shows.

That's not an argument though. In a day where most channels are in HD, and now 4k for some, there's still no incentive or otherwise to make people upgrade their players accordingly. They need to get rid of DVD altogether. Sorry, but blu ray players are not expensive anymore.

Same is true for all retail stores. The employees are always idiots.

They never seem to know anything about their own inventory.

Trying to decide if I feel like getting the Applebee's AYCE riblets today. It's tempting. Maybe I'll give them a call and see if it runs all day.

Also at this Target I've never been to before and I saw six copies of Spectre and five had slipcovers

Wonder if the local Applebee's has AYCE but I'm too lazy to find out.

8-year olds looking over your shoulder at the live action Beauty and the Beast playing on your tablet don't count, bro.

I’m wondering why I keep attracting the wrong type of women... it seems like the only ones that approach me are washed out drug addicts. It’s like, no, I’m not interested, leave me alone.
