Sniff*, eh? I think the snuff vids would have the heads underneath as heavy weights were placed on top...

This is me. :( I am so panicked by that 1100 hours appointment that I can't do anything for the entire morning, and ABSOLUTELY MUST leave with time to spare for traffic, getting pulled over, and maybe an unfortunate incident with the neighbor's cat, just in case!

I'm bad with the 'routine' stuff, where I once had to call in sick to work because I couldn't find my keys, or I am on the computer, typing a reply on lemmy, when I have five minutes until I need to leave for work... speaking of... glances at clock

Sailing, maybe, but rowing doesn't have to be upper middle class. I'm solidly lower middle class, if that, and I get by. With the club, it's about the same as a gym membership subscription at the end of the day.

No, why the fuck would you watch anything? Get out there and do the thing! I think I would rather watch paint dry (and have, don't get involved in research with darpa, folks) than watch someone else do something fun. It's just cuckoldry.

Ha, I wish! They've fired people already for merely obscuring the camera for a few seconds. There is a hilarious clip of someone reaching up with a pair of scissors and getting the wire, but I like having a steady job with insurance too much. Maybe when I get tired of this shit and get hired somewhere else.

I feel ya, mate. I've got the same thing in my company vehicle. It absolutely irritates the shit out of me that anyone above my level of the hierarchy can look at me any time they want.

Tell me about it. Every time I get near the planes we use for skydiving, I can smell the damn difference.

The worst part is, the media DID cover it. The big lads may not have, but there were plenty of articles, photos, videos, blogs, and people talking about all of those to have woken up anyone with a conscience. It just turns out that it may be easier than anyone thought to have people turn off their conscience.

Alright, I give you the nerd credit. I'm just depressed because I found out there was a group starting a game in my theater troupe, but they'd capped it at 5 and I was too late. I'd even take D&D right now.

The end of the world sounds fun. I'd bet it would be a blast to throw that wrench in 'session zero' of a fate game (which is my personal favorite, even the prometheus and werewolf games don't match up).

I hate you in so many ways right now.

Take a look at a football playbook. You going to remember all of that, be able to recall it, and then also know all the audible changes to a play that you have to make?

Bet you every penny you ever made that I could do it in one quarter of the time that most of the pros do it. There's a reason they have the training season.

I want more hometown sports. I daydream about leagues funded by local communities, starring local talent, with smaller local crowds.

With pros, it's just whichever fucker can get paid enough to bring them here. I don't give a shit about their playing. I only watch because it's someone I know, so I can go congratulate them later. Otherwise, I'd much rather be playing the damn game. The highest I'll go is high school level sports. Those kids are still a part of my community. I know their parents, I probably know them.

Maybe, maaaaaybe, I'd watch other local adults play, but only if they're my friends. It would be much better to just have more participation in adult leagues within the community. I'd play a thousand times against others in my area, getting my ass kicked if the good fellas join together, before I'd watch a game with people I don't know.
