I’ve got two weeks of vacation time coming after working all year down at Big Roy’s Heating & Plumbing, so this slideshow is relevant to my interests.

Francis A. Johnson’s Twine Ball is Minnesota (The one, the song is based on) is more impressive anyways. It may be smaller, but it was completely made by one person. And, hasn’t been altered since the day he died.

Surprised there’s no Elvis-a-Rama, Tupperware Museum, Boll Weevil Monument, Cranberry World, Shuffleboard Hall of Fame, Poodle Dog Rock, or Mecca of Albino Squirrels listed.

I HATE the scripts that the author over at Ask a Manager uses because of this. Feigned, passive-aggressive confusion is not a great look.

I just want to say thank you for not making this into a slideshow. feels good to be able to easily read a list of stuff again

Kid Icarus was the toughest freaking game at the time... then I got Ghosts N Goblins on the Genesis and I think that was even harder to beat... somehow my Brother did beat GNG though, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes I would never have believed him.

Best part of a "day in the life" back then was playing Zelda and opting to skip the wooden sword and play through with out it until you got the heart containers to acquire the white sword. That means pushing rocks for coins, buying a candle, burning enemies and getting bombs, blowing holes to get more coins etc and…

Those eggplant dudes are some of the biggest bastards in all of gaming.

I beat Kid Icarus at least a few times a year. Without losing a life? That's tough, but I've done it. Without getting turned into an eggplant? IMPOSSIBLE.

Kid Icarus was wild because the first couple levels were these vertical scroll nightmares and you didn’t have any of the good powerups yet. If you could hand those the rest of the game was a coast.

Or anywhere else

cant wait for the “Don’t be a dick or an idiot in a _____ store” next week. 

You should probably mention that other money-sending services like Venmo and Cashapp also have no protections. Further, even using PayPal and choosing to send to “friends/family” won’t protect you.

I loved the copper bathtub!

Ugh. Not watching a video again. I wish we had text!

So, you can’t just type out the list?

Refuse to watch their videos. Waiting for the MVP to come along and give the summary.

Walk hills (if at all possible in your area)! Built-in interval training. Far better for the joints than running could ever dream of being.

I bought a Polestar 2 this year and it’s a D2C setup. No haggling, no add-ons, no markups. I ordered my car and did my credit application online, test drove the car at the showroom, and I think I had to lay down two or three wet signatures before driving off with the car two weeks later. It was the only pleasant car…
