for the last week I've gotten home from work, sat down at my computer, and poo poo posted while trying to think of a game to play I wouldn't be bored with

and I haven't come up with anything so it's just been poo poo posting for 2-4 hours a day.

Sadly you gotta buy USF4 :( its like 20 bucks I think? But yeah I hear you. I'm mostly looking to train Juri up as I plan to main her so i need to practice command inputs.

The game has a lot of friendly ways to practice now. Honestly I really enjoy it.

oh hi. how do you do. My automation library sucks because I'm a lovely programmer and some random dev who doesn't even work there anymore arbitrarily decided that we needed to automate integration tests for long-running asynchronous jobs with a unit testing library, how about you

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
you could watch some netflix or listen to some music with a visualizer open (lol so 90s). of course there's always the option of typing dirty to camwhores or getting stuck in wikipedia reading poo poo for hours. Or you could start up star trek online and get some virtual sex going in the pub at DS9. the world is your oyster. go hog wild.

hmm, well already watching netflix... camwhores and star trek online are on the unappealing side of the spectrum

what are YOU doing?

Always Sunny in Philadelphia, it's a good background show that I don't need to pay attention to 100%

haven't heard of hemlock grove but I can't say it sounds appealing. I've watched all of the orange is the new black too and I'll agree it was ddecent

I got him a lovely stuffed toy for now but I gave him a 6' x 3' box full of all my old legos and all the instruction manuals for when he gets a little more advanced. There's roughly 50 manuals in there and tons of extra parts. Looking forward to seeing him build rad spaceships and poo poo.
