Seattle sucked rear end yesterday, they never threatened. Congrats buddy.

They sucked rear end last year too. Toronto just couldn't score. Happy the game was earlier this year so I didn't have to stay up until 4 am again.

Yes but...* don’t ever read the last tommy and tuppence novel or the last few Hercule Poirot and miss Marple novels, watch the TV shows instead. In the books she slowly ages them, and at the end coupled with her dementia writing it’s cripplingly depressing. No one, apart from Christie as it turns out, wants to see miss Marple alone in the dark and frightened that she might have broken her hips after a fall.

If you want the Marple you see on TV then what you want are the Miss Silver Novels. https://www.goodreads.com/series/43096-miss-silver If you want a really cool American Miss Marple meets James Bond series then read Mrs Polifax. https://www.goodreads.com/series/51239-mrs-pollifax


*I’ve legit read hundreds of golden age novels.

And then there were none, it was the first Christie I read when I was 8 years old sat on a beach in France eating those hot honey peanuts they sold off carts. Was a gateway drug to the harder stuff such as Lord Peter Whimsy and Campion. These days there is a lot of sifting through a sea of “historical fiction” poo poo to find anything good.

If you like audio books then I absolutely urge you to give the Amelia Peabody series a go, it’s more modern but imo the absolute best. Also check out the James Anderson trilogy starting with the affair of the bloodstained tea cosy.

I bought a LG G6 for $150 and the camera sucks and is poo poo-garbage and also it's a pump'n'dump phone so LG won't even bother supporting or updating it just like all the other stupid pieces of poo poo android partner phones so I returned it and now I have a Pixel XL on the way for the same price boy howdy why didn't I just do that in the first place

Only always buy an iPhone or, if you want Android, for the love of God get a Google-backed phone so you actually get security ujpdates and OS updates right away. RIP iPhone SE, you served me well but now its into the closet next to wicka as a backup phone.
