In other news, Jim Jordan keeps losing votes every round.

They don't want McCarthy, they don't want Scalise, they don't want Jordan, they don't want McHenry ... I'm surprised the party hasn't fractured completely.

So who DO they want?

They play games and then trade them back in for trade credit…crazy! You gotta hoard those Nintendo tapes buddy!

You know how in my other main hobby you hear horror stories of kids from the 50s/60s whose moms threw out their baseball cards and they had Mickey Mantles and big rookie cards and such?  Well we had that in video games!  They traded off their old system/games for cheap to put towards the new system...who knows if there games in those trade-ins like Cowboy Kid (I let that one go cheap way back when; how stupid of me!!) or MegaMan X3 or Harvest Moon or Crono Trigger or whatnot!!

Yeah, this is officially from Sony, so it's part of the new shell casings. Not going to lie, it is definitely preferable over just a white...

Video game consoles are like people though...it's what's inside that counts!

No, video games is a hobby where you try to play games that you enjoy to have a fun time. Do you actually think the majority of people playing PS5 games want to "build as nice a collection as they can"?  

Well there's people that try to build as nice a collection of NES games or SNES games or whatnot...so why the heck not PS5?  Though I'd think most would want to do the previous gens first...

Come on?  

What I mean is that these are hobbies where you try to make as nice a collection as you can.  In the case of video games, it doesn't really count if they're just digital downloads.  Just like how having pictures of baseball cards saved on my computer doesn't count for anything.

Some times I can't tell if you're actually being sarcastic or not

No not at all.  Not on this one.

Yeah I think anytime I go to Best Buy or target they are always in stock now. Usually the one with the disk drive because it’s the more expensive option and people usually go with the digital only. 

Well that's beyond stupid...don't people like to collect video games anymore?  I mean it's supposed to be a hobby, like baseball cards or coins or stamps and such right?

Maybe these are new ones?  Not sure.  I got the galactic purple one over a year ago, and it looks fantastic!

I bet Kentucky Wesleyan students would love these!

I always pictured you with high-waisted pants and whatnot. Though come to think of it, your personality is a lot closer to Balki.

*reads Wiki article* I guess in some ways that makes sense (while I've always been a big fan of the show's spinoff, Family Matters, I don't think I ever watched Perfect Strangers) though his favorite of all of God's creatures are sheep!

For the record my usual attire is t-shirt (my current one reads "BEST CAT DAD EVER"  ) and shorts or sweatpants.  I seldom go anywhere besides the grocery store or grandma's so I don't really have much reason to wear anything else...

I love you Joey!

Then why don't you marry him?

Sure it is. The ABBA girls are in their 70s and you're, well, Urkel.

Well I meant the ABBA girls in their prime but sure, I'll live/hang out with them as they are now!  And who are you calling Urkel?  

1 hour ago, Tulpa said:

Sort of a Golden Girls/Urkel fusion thing? I can see that.

This is nothing like that at all.

Twice, actually, and she was on the December 1984 cover.

I forget, does each month's Playmate get to be on the cover or the centerfold...or both at the same time?  That must be quite an honor as Wikipedia sees fit to recognize all of them with their own articles!

DIdn't realize she was the mom in Step by Step.

Loved me some Three's Company though. Would be interesting to watch it now as an adult. I've seen bits but not full episodes in their entirety. 

Could you guys picture me in a sitcom like that getting to live with the ABBA girls and all those wacky adventures?

Like Estil, I also remember her most from Step by Step.

Not to be confused with this Step By Step of course...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzanne_Somers

I personally remember her better from the 90s sitcom Step by Step (not to be confused with the New Kids on the Block song) but this was obviously her real claim to fame:

I'd love to be in a Three's Company kind of deal with the ABBA girls

Men get calluses. 

Chuck Norris gives blisters to his controllers.

In the eyes of the Ranger...the unsuspecting stranger...had better know the truth of wrong from right.

I guess the only real piece of advice I could give (and what I often think to myself about different things) is what is it that you could do that you don't see hardly anyone else doing?  That can be quite tricky though seeing as how YouTube's been around for almost 20 years...has it really been that long ago?

My Cats have Georgia on their mind next week!  Can you imagine how'd be if we (5-0) could actually beat the #1 team in the country on their turf?

I knew all along the odds were very very much against us but geez, couldn't we at least had put up a better fight?

Not so sure about that.  Do you have many gay friends? 

Not a one...I did have a dormmate in my college days (early 2000s) who said he was gay but I wasn't sure if he was serious or just kidding around.  And I did have a gay co-worker when I worked as a grocery cashier in the mid-late 2000s but we didn't really speak much. 

But seriously, wouldn't you think gay men would want like bare chested dudes with a "sleek swimmer's body all muscled up and toned' (as Eric Cartman once sang as Faith+1)?  Why would they care or want cute chicks?  I'd think they'd want cute dudes if anything...

OMG just when I thought they couldn't get any better
