Well, anyone who bought a house in the last few years will.

Do we have more than a couple people in Congress that were not already rich when they started running their campaign?

That’s the first time I’ve thought of it in years, but it fits my sentiment perfectly.

And then you don’t have to deal with Expedia when something goes wrong, you can just deal directly with the company whose lobby you are standing in.

I’m sad to say that Costco travel did the same thing to me and my wife. We cancelled our plans. Homey don’t play that.

Burger King made a statement that they’re not using surge pricing, rather they’re reducing the cost during slow hours. Uh… That’s surge pricing since they already raised the “regular” cost quite a lot.

Congratulations on living in a town where nobody wants to live?

Uh, the youngest millennial is 28 years old. Why is mommy taking him apartment shopping?

Murder! Murder most foul…

Ugh… My very tiny wallet took care of it when my kid was younger, in the form of daycare payments. Summer was hella expensive for me back then.

They build them compressed in Earth’s atmosphere, and they expand to full size in the vacuum of space.

That’s not free.

I ordered an iPod from Alibaba back in the day and it was most certainly not an iPod. I think they’re more reliable than back then, but who knows. It’s always a gamble ordering from those kinds of sites.

One time I ordered a PS2 kit from some janky-ass Chinese site. The kit converted it into a flip top and included a CD that would let you play burned games. After a couple months of it not showing up, I figured I got ripped off, which I half expected anyways. 3.5 months later the kit showed up at my doorstep and actually worked. Haha! I used that thing for years after making the conversion.

There’s a difference between being contrived, and seeming contrived. The latter is usually an indication of poor writing or directing.

And to have such a son.

This was a very powerful episode.

I tried it, it’s not for me. It felt very stupid and contrived. It’s cool that you’re enjoying it though.

I never did play Squadrons. I joined the Army right after the X-Wing era and had a several year gap where I didn’t touch a computer at all.

Now that I think about it, if these are straight-up DOS games then you don’t need Windows at all. You can just load MS-DOS and then run the game straight from the command line. I think you’re right that XP broke a bunch of old DOS games. It’s been so long that I completely forgot we were mad at Microsoft for the removal of DOS back then and the move to an emulator only experience.

Good. Get fucked.

Sim City games were so cool back then! I hate what they did with them as they progressed.
