I am autistic. I am blunt. Not in a 'fuck your feelings' way but because false manners and lies are morally/mentally injurious IMHO. I find a lot of things about the human animal absolutely absurd and I don't hide it.

We may not get along and that's OK.

I think the elephant in the room for a lot of old school gaming fans is that mechanically and physics-ly (if I may abuse the language a bit) some of the classics don't hold up.

Don't get me wrong, many still do. But many still don't, too.

We're too precious about matters of nostalgia. IMHO, OC.

Hot take: Autistic people and especially our beloved ARFID sufferers owe it to themselves to give making their own food a shot. The long way. Way someone's grandma does.

It's almost guaranteed to be healthier, cheaper and once you learn a few tricks, more consistently exactly as you like it.

I think an interesting buddhist take on Office Space is that he attained an accidental uncultivated psuedo-enlightenment that made him behave like kind of a jerk.

This is why sangha is one of the Three Treasures.

I love psychological/elevated horror. The garden variety stuff, not so much. The genre entirely depends on the monster and the survivors taking turns at being blitheringly incompetent.

One of my biggest internet pet peeves are people with little to no reading comprehension that want to argue about the made up thing you said that only exists in their lazy, remedial brain meats.

You should have to fill out a brief multiple choice questionnaire that proves you read the thing first.

People who experiment with being scumbags:

I am going to stay home and daydrink. Won't that be fun?

*Two hours later; piss wasted and crying for reasons they aren't capable of articulating*

Pizza delivery guy: I'm just going to go now.

There's people who I respect and care for that are really into James Bond, but the whole thing is just so divorced and 'I read playboy for the articles' coded.

Absolutely absurd films in which physics, logic and taste have no place. At least the Fast and the Furious movies knew they were stupid.

People need to decide once and for all which decade is best described as 'Roaring'. It can't be the 20's, 40's *and* 50's.

Disambiguate you loosey-goosey fucks.

My nephew is visiting and were catching up on how school is going:

"So that 6-7 thing is pretty huge."

"Yeah..."

"I don't personally get it."

"It's dumb. I'm sick of it."

"We don't have to talk about it."

"OK. Can we play Lego?"

"You know the dog needs a bath..."

*Gasps* "Can we?"

Good boy.

24 hour/marathon streams are garbage content. Nobody is impressed by your ability to sit on ass for an extended period of time, you are not doing anything extraordinary except being cavalier about your health.

You are barely making sense anymore and the self abuse comes across desperate, not keen.

If we get out of this alive, an accounting will have to be done with the so called 'fourth estate' and their inveterate, obsequious toadying.

You cowards have violently shit the bed and I hope you are forced to lie in it and live out the rest of your lives in well earned ignomy.

The people who don't understand that the Dem 'leadership' is bought and paid for controlled opposition need to stay the fuck out of the conversation.

You have not yet set aside childish things and you burden yourself with a safety blanket of wishful self delusion. You are not a serious person.

I like Willie Nelson just fine. Seems like a cool dude. His music? A total snore to me.

I am not a wistful old man looking at his past, I am an angry middle aged fuck looking at his present. I have been 'mellow' maybe 5 times in my life and I deeply distrust that particular flavor.

It's very reductive to say 'cozy' games are boring and uneventful with central conflicts that are barely there, if at all, and difficult to become emotionally invested in any real capacity. But it's also true.

I just don't care that much about a cartoon frog trying to run a cat cafe. Sorry.

Path of Exile is clearly there to waste your time in the WoW tradition of padding the living fuck out of the entire experience so that most of the stuff you do is a boring grind in the hopes of maybe having fun at some point in the future when you get the thing that has a .000000027% chance to drop.

I don't know about no skunk ape, or no Men in Black. But every one that's been to a punk/metal or hardcore show has seen a Fat Drunk Douche in a Pantera T-Shirt Trying to Get Kicked Out.

He appears to be a creature not bound by genre, time or space, but appearing at all such venues at once.

I am going crazy trying to find tangible evidence of some lady who tried to buy an "S" on Wheel of Fortune. And it's not to laugh at her.

It was just very weird to me. She seemed perfectly compos mentis until then. Did she spend her whole adult life thinking 'S' is a vowel? 1/2

I am not a super picky eater. I don't love mushrooms or olives, but I'll power through it unless it's totally loaded with those things.

But because of how okra was served in my house, all slimy and overcooked to hell and back, and how often, too damn much, I just cant with that stuff.

I knew a guy who had a dog that could skateboard, but he couldn't do shit. His dog was the white sheep of his household.

What would you think if they seized Trump to put him in jail and he turned out to be a bunch of chickens working together to operate a human suit?

So I didn't pay much attention to sports. I saw someone saying Michael Jordan was a d-bag. Is that true? My knowledge of MJ is basically limited to Dream Team, Underwear Commercial and Space Jam.

He seemed a neutral force in the world to me besides that one weird facial hair choice.
