OT has been very rare the last 2 plus years. Worked OT last saturday. Did a 12.5 and a 10.5 hour day this week. Working saturday again. Gonna have nice paycheck. So I just ordered more movies. Through sales with various retailers, preorders, and regular orders I have over 50 movies on the way.

sfmarine · 10-13-2022, 05:21 PM

Apparently those adult happy meals are stressing out the workers!

y2jman · 10-13-2022, 05:35 PM

I'm going to let everyone in on a secret: As an adult, you can buy any Happy Meal you want. For yourself! I've been doing it for years! I've never been reverse-carded at the counter, or shamed in my town, for doing so. In fact, in fact, I think people respect you more when they see you walking around with a Happy Meal box in tow.

Thinking about buying The Lake House and Spider-man: No Way Home during Target's B1G150O.

The Replacement Case and Custom Cover Art threads need to be fixed. So much out-dated information and dead websites, and links to posts with no images.
What happened to this hobby?

You can go to the store and get a birthday cake. When its not your birthday.

I went to check my mail and there was a (stray) black cat on the roof of my truck.

Those darned Progressive commercials with Dr. Rick seem to be everywhere, but I'll be damned if this one isn't on point.

VictoryAtNight · 10-14-2022, 07:53 AM

I need to watch the first 5 minutes of Melancholia again.

EDIT: HBO already removed it and not available.

Thinking about buying Gran Turismo 7 since it's on sale but I recently opened Gran Tursimo Sport and have only played it for less than a half hour I think so not sure I need to get the new one too soon.

Also thinking about buying an iPhone. It's been a minute (several actually) since I've had an iPhone. The phone I have right now is a simple Android phone. Normally I'd just go out and get one but I'm trying to save up as much money as possible for a down payment on a new car. I can probably put away $2,000 a month as long as I be frugal and don't buy things I don't need, like a new iPhone. Hmmmm

I don't think I'll have a time for a movie tonight as I have to get up early but reading Claus von Stauffenberg's wiki page makes me want to watch Valkyrie tonight. Its one of my favorite movies and inspired me to visit the Memorial to the German Resistance when I was in Berlin seven years ago.

Valkyrie is LONG overdue for a 4K release!

Watched Terrifier for the first time after all the buzz surrounding the sequel. IDK...it just felt like gratuitous gore to me and way overdone + unrealistic.

[Show spoiler]

People argued Hostel was torture porn but at least it had a good plot!

Tsukiyomi · 10-17-2022, 01:37 AM

I think I returned a book to the library and they failed to scan it. I've been searching every place it could be in the house for the last few days and not even a single sign of it. This would not be the first time this has happened either ugh. I guess I need to call the library the item is from tomorrow and have them check.

civiclx · 10-17-2022, 06:11 PM

Men

The movie I mean. The Blu Ray is on sale for $13.99 and I just might get it.

sfmarine · 10-17-2022, 07:43 PM

I didn't eat lunch today so I stopped in at a KFC and nobody was inside except for the employee behind the counter. He was watching something on his phone and didn't acknowledge me or have any idea I was even there. So I glanced at the menu expecting him to be like hello but his face was still buried in his phone watching Youtube. I noticed that they jacked up the chicken sandwich prices another buck (they were $4), so I decided since I wasn't getting any service..I might as well just walk out SO I did. As the door closed behind me I turned around and he still was watching his phone LOL.

Should have said "Hey, moron, you just lost your company/store a sale"

Call the GM and explain what happened. They'll make the guy apologize to you (maybe) and either train him or the whole store in customer etiquette or just fire him and they'll most likely will give you a free meal

LOL right! If I was the manager of that store and saw the footage of someone leaving after not being waited on...that person at the counter would be fired. I've actually had issues with that store in the past (and given them poor ratings), so I think it's best I just never return at this point. Pretty crazy though that a chicken sandwich is more than the rotisserie ones at Sam's Club or Costco. That's what I ended up with!
