    Just be glad you're not burdened with Cricket.  That sport makes baseball look like a rock concert.  Not only is it pompous and formal compared to baseball, it's way more tedious and slow paced.  Cautious, defencive play is a huge part of the game, making an already boring game even more boring. In test cricket, it takes 5 days to play one game and it usually ends in a fucking draw!

    This is factual. I say it all the time - if the police wanted me to snitch on some criminals, just force me to watch Test Cricket for 1 minute and I'd start squealing like a nosy pig on the farm.

    And the commentary is electrifying:

    ”We’re coming up on the fourth green now. Could people be quieter, I’d like to hear the grass grow.”

    The most exciting part of Golf is when they whack the ball into the pond and an alligator immediately comes out of the water and just lays there. Making everyone know it's pointless to try and retrieve that ball.

    Silent letters drive me nuts. What is the actual purpose for them? And a word already mentioned, is colonel. Also, I speak American. The roots of American are in England, but that is about all American English and British English have in common. Slang in both places have no correlation between the two countries. Who here knows what “neden” is or what it means to call someone “ninja”? And how many slang words for “penis” do you know? There has to be THOUSANDS of words. Also, “fag” here is a slur against gay men. But I know it (did? does?) mean cigarette across the pond. Back in the 60’s fag meant cigarette here as well. The English language is royally fucked up from every angle. And no 2 English speaking countries speak the same English.

    I knew Fag as a cigarette growing up until I became a teen and then I learned it was also a slur for gay men.

    I already have the car. It’s a 1987 Chevy Camaro Iroc-Z with T tops. I dreamed about it for 35 years. I finally got her a few years ago.

    Her name is Dream.

    Yeah, I remember when you got this. Do you plan to do any modifications to it?

  4. I mean, I have both currently but it depends on what you're looking for in terms of functionality. If you want the ultimate gaming experience visually, the Gaming monitor is a no-brainer. If you want something that's versatile, the TV wins hands down.

    I used to have situations where I can go days or weeks without playing games. It is always because of my work, and I can't let gaming affect my work when we have issues at the office.

    That's called having your priorities straight and there's nothing wrong with that. I'd do the same if I was in your position - work sustains your livelihood and also gives you money to buy games so that has to be the priority.

    Honestly, I’m not sure. It’s apparently not going to be the same game as before as this time around its going to involve crypto.

    Last week, The Flappy Bird Foundation announced a game called Flappy Bird. But while the group has been framing it as the triumphant return of a classic mobile game, Flappy Bird’s original developer, Dong Nguyen isn’t calling it a comeback — in fact, he says he’s not involved at all.

    Nguyen posted as much on X (for the first time since 2017!) this morning, saying he didn’t “sell anything.” The Flappy Bird Foundation wrote in the announcement it shared with press last week that it had “acquired the rights from Gametech Holdings, LLC,” which had secured the trademark from Nguyen, but it doesn’t appear as though that was the result of any dealings between him and the group.

    Sounds like a total disaster waiting to happen. Any games involving Crypto usually go sour after a while.
