MyGod you all sound like seltzer soaked wet blankets. I can't even drink sugar sodas, but you give me a diet ginger ale or a well chilled Fresca peach and I'm in heaven. Tons of ice, soda, sooo good. I get it, you don't wanna sound like a fat, but chill. Sweet stuff tastes good sometimes!

Cream soda is super gross though, totally agree.

A PHUO of mine is any drink that has a lot of bitters in it tastes terrible. I don't understand it.

That song is amazing, and Kesha is lovely. You're right.

I don't understand video games. There. I loving said it. I do not understand playing them for hours. I definitely don't understand watching a screeching moron play on twitch.

No it's not just because I am gently caress terrible at games (last game I finished was Far Cry...whichever one had McLovin and crocodiles). Okay so it is, but I feel left out and I hate it.

It's not a question of how people can enjoy video games in general, it's a question of understanding how people my age (early 30s) can still be as enthusiastic as I was about video games when I was a teenager to this day. In other words, is there something wrong with them, or with me?

Exactly this. I feel like I'm missing something by not being banged out about playing games. I don't even do mobile games. I am terrible at strategy in general and have the attention span of a

I want that hobby! Where do I go to figure out what games I want to play? I mean this. I have nothing but downtime and I literally know nothing. Where in hell do I go where people can read the list of 12 games I can actually play and then spit out a list of poo poo I might not blow off in 2 hours? This is Goons, there has to be that thread. Except of course there isn't because everyone just bickers about pixels and hexagons or boobs or something and I'll never find a game.

I am very bitter about this.

Anal is great, y'all must be doing it wrong. Also sex is over-hyped and put on a weird pedestal. There's too much stress. If people just relax about it and have a good time sex is just a weird and amazing part of life's journey. Doesn't have to be everything, but when it hits ya right, you feel alive for a reason.

Having sex in public parks is just strange, though. Stop with the dogging, there are innocent ducks about!

Barn cats being exempted from these ridiculous rules you guys have for animals needs to stop. Barn cats are hellspawn that only exist to bring ruination upon all living things they see. They're only kept around as "pest killers" because the loving assholes haven't figured out how to eat cows and horses on the hoof.

If you don't believe in outdoor cats, fine. I want to agree. But stop your bullshit if you think barn cats are "working" or what the gently caress ever.

Edit: I want to be perfectly clear. Pets are cool, but I think keeping cats is gross and probably stupid as gently caress if you don't have pests. They're wild animals. Don't believe me, set Furball loose for two days, they'll still be fat when you come home. Cats are not pets. They're generations deep in "Kill things for food and shelter" but they still loving hate you. They will eat your flesh and find it fulfilling. Stray cats are more vermin than what they hunt.

Are they not killing things that could potentially harm your livestock or crops, aka the things your livelihood depends on? That is serving a working purpose. Should we get rid of livestock guardian dogs too because they aren't "working" by whatever weird definition you are operating under?

They're killing everything, it's great. They also don't get fixed and are treated as working livestock by farmers. That means generations of barn cats that roam for miles and kill every loving thing. And it turns out not all farms are as rural as you think.

All I'm saying is stop exempting barn cats in your "Rules For Cat Having" book. They're evil and as unregistered and free roaming as any other stray.

You have reached my point. There is no such thing as a real "barn cat". They're strays that people put a cute name on. If you hate stray cats and what they do, you also hate the "working" cats you guys seem to think are unique. They are vermin, stop giving cats in a rural setting a new coat of paint.

All barn cats are feral, and all cats kill for fun. They're the same goddamn animal. Stop making up rules.

Edit: I should say feral and not stray. Where I live there are no stray cats, just one's that have 19 homes. Rural communities have no safe place for cats. Perhaps this is why I have a weird outlook.

The fact that Petrucci can play a million notes a minute is impressive from a technical standpoint but it doesn't really do anything for me; I'm sure it probably means something to other people but I just can't imagine what.

The only good Christmas songs are made by the Carpenters or Mannheim Steamroller. Everything else is garbage. Just listen to the Carpenter's Christmas Collection on repeat through the season.

When I think "arena rock" I tend to think of bands like Queen. I've heard some Imagine Dragons because my brother and sister like them but they usually sound a bit gutless to me. That's fair enough if it's what you like (everybody likes some kind of music) but it sort of reminds me of the time I was listening to BBC Radio 2 and someone called in to describe how they'd been "rocking out to Train" the previous night. (HEY SOUL SISTER :rock::rock::rock::rock::rock::rock:)

Serious question: what did people like about Nickelback? What niche did they fill? Surely Foo Fighters were already around to satisfy the audience for competent meat and potatoes dad rock revivalism already when Nickelback showed up?

Eh yeah, I am actually using the phrase "arena rock" wrong, I think. I just mean a band that sounds as good or better live and fill the niche of sounding agreeably melodic while still being loud. 311 fills this for me. So did Linkin Park or Shinedown. Just loud rock that is radio accessible and can destroy a Ticketmaster with presales. Sometimes you just wanna jam out, ya know?

I also don't understand Nickleback but if I'm totally honest I never tried to like them.
