An hour left in Last Night in Soho, does this get better? -- nm - MDH Mar 6, 19:37 1
- Better than perfect? Is that even possible? -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:42
Top Chef is in Houston this season. When do we get a Qale cameo? -- nm - Dano Mar 6, 19:32 3
- Yeah, we somehow missed that the season was starting. I'm really excited to watch the premiere. -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:42
- Too bad that they shop at the wrong grocery chain. -- nm - Dano Mar 6, 19:35 1
  - Fuck Amazon? -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 19:46
I was not a fan of that Punk/MJF match. I don’t care if the feud progressed to that point. I hate blood in wrestling. -- nm - Tim Mar 6, 19:20 8
- AEW uses color far more than it needs to. But I’m also glad that they do feel like they can/should. -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 19:24
- Oh man, I thought they booked that perfectly. - David Mar 6, 19:21 6
  - I liked that part! - Tim Mar 6, 19:23 5
    - YOU SHOULD LIKE ALL THE PARTS -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:41 4
      - And every Britt Baker title match is the same and I’m over it. -- nm - Tim Mar 6, 19:43 3
        
        That was about the worst match I've ever seen her have. There was a rumor that Thunder Rosa was hurt on Wednesday. I think she is. -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:46
        
        And am I supposed to be impressed with Jade Cargill? Cause I’m not. - Tim Mar 6, 19:45 1
        
        Her matches are still a work in process. In terms of looking and style, she's already a 10. - David Mar 6, 19:47
What do you think the wordle word will be tonight? I'm guessing fishy. -- nm - David Mar 6, 19:14 6

    - Last I saw, he was doing the macarena with a pool float -- nm - ty97 Mar 6, 19:20 1
      - So the Wordle is SLOSH? -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 19:25
Inflation isn’t keeping the customers away, nor from buying huge amounts of groceries. Easily busiest day at work since Thanksgiving. -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 19:00 6
- Are people stocking up on flour, rice and staples? -- nm - Pippy Mar 6, 19:01 5
  - No. It’s all luxury, all the time still. Big time meats, wines, fishies. It’s an affluent area, so they bitch about the price to me, then complain… - Qale Mar 6, 19:07 2
    - "Well I have Apple Pay, tap right here" -- nm - budice Mar 6, 19:11 1

  - TP -- nm - budice Mar 6, 19:02 1
    - I DO NOT miss those days -- nm - Pippy Mar 6, 19:03

  - Yeah. I found it appropriate that he was on the bronze step of the podium while the Ukrainian was on the gold. -- nm - Dano Mar 6, 19:00
- I love how the photo makes it look like he has a leg growing out of his shoulder -- nm - crash davis Mar 6, 18:46 3
  - but that wouldnt be possible, crash -- nm - mud Mar 6, 18:47 2
    - are you 100% sure of that? -- nm - crash davis Mar 6, 18:49 1
      - .. .. .. .. no -- nm - mud Mar 6, 18:56

- Might want to check that calendar again... -- nm - Ender Mar 6, 18:13 2
  - Go home dano, you’re drunk. -- nm - spamlet Mar 6, 18:14 1
    - That may or may not be true -- nm - Dano Mar 6, 18:26
Apparently coke has a limited edition "Starlight" soda that has been described as "dr pepper with a dash of coke"... -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 17:53 11
- I heard cotton candy flavor -- nm - budice Mar 6, 18:11
- I wish they would bring back OK. - znufrii Mar 6, 18:06
- Ah, but ST has described it as a fail -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 17:54 8
  - I thought it was a "missed expectations" more than a "fail". - ReluctantCynic Mar 6, 18:07
  - I've watched Kim drink two of them tonight. -- nm - David Mar 6, 18:03 5
    - That’s because Kim thought it was actually made out of Starlight and she’s essentially Stitch. -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 19:04
    - I like it. But I also like all the weird flavors of Bang Energy Drink, too. -- nm - Dark Callisto Mar 6, 18:04 3
      - This is why I expect I'll like it, I'm all about weird soda flavours. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 18:31 2
        
        Lemon Coke and Strawberry Dr Pepper highly underrated -- nm - budice Mar 6, 18:39 1
        
        Strawberry Dr. Pepper is exactly how I’d describe Starlight Coke then. -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 19:09
  - Yeah, I was excited to try it until I saw the ST reactions. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 17:55

It is 20 days before my brother's out-of-town wedding and it just tonight occurred to my parents they might need to book a hotel room. - Ender Mar 6, 17:30 11
- Maybe they didn't think he'd really go through with it? -- nm - David Mar 6, 17:50
- Dad's in a frustration tailspin now. I can get the Marriott site to work he can't. - Ender Mar 6, 17:49 4
  - I can't recall if it's Marriott or Hilton's website that gives me booking errors randomly sometimes (I think it's Marriott?). - ty97 Mar 6, 18:14 3
    - Marriotts website is terrible. They want to force you to use the app. -- nm - MDH Mar 6, 18:19 2

  - because they love wearing the tracksuits? -- nm - crash davis Mar 6, 16:49 1
    - this is what I'm saying. What will they do their squats in? -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 16:54

- 2011. It's eleven years old, which is less old than I was expecting or recollected. (I've never seen it) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 16:43 2
  - It’s the equivalent being in 1996 and saying “I watched this old movie called Back to the Future”. At least Peter Parker defined old movies as ones - Roger More Mar 6, 17:04 1
    - TBF, BTTF likely would have seemed more recent back then due to the two sequels. -- nm - Ender Mar 6, 18:16

- I'm so confused about this because isn't masking over? -- nm - Pocket Jones Mar 6, 16:18 3
  - they probably want to execute people who continue to wear one. My theory is anti-maskers get pissed at people who mask because it makes them feel like - Beaker Mar 6, 16:29 2
    - At this point aren't you a sheep if you don't wear a mask? -- nm - Dano Mar 6, 16:35 1
