    You aren't the first person to come to that conclusion. Maybe I am. I certainly hope not.

    Hilsen,

    1. My dad took me on a motorcycle ride to see "Solo".

    2. For any sort of problems, "Solo" was a lot of fun and I wasn't disappointed in the performances. I'd see it again.

    I got a band tee today! Bring Me the Horizon! And it mostly fits, just the sleeves are a little long, and actually, that's not that surprising because I got an extra small in guys because they didn't have that style in girls. I have two band tees now, that one and a Nirvana one. I really need to find an Alice in Chains one I like and a Panic! at the Disco one that actually fits me. I've bought two P!ATD tees from Amazon and both were really big and the print on them was awful. This new one came from Hot Topic; maybe I should get a P!ATD one from there. Unfortunately, I don't think they have Alice in Chains...
    You may or may not be able to tell, but I like promoting the bands I like.:)

    That's awesome Glitter! Now your making me want to buy band tees! I had concert long sleeve shirts from Tool - Undertow concert. They were a little long too. You listen to all the good stuff. Bring Me The Horizon, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Alice In Chains (I saw Stone Temple Pilots open for AC/DC or KISS. STP was awesome), I love promoting the artists I love. Keep singing there praises!

    My hubby downloaded it from Steam already on 24th because someone fucked up and it was available there for a few minutes. :D

    Alas, for a PC player the remaster is not really an improvement game play or visuals wise, but the refreshed player base makes it worth the price (since it's -50% anyway) if you're into PvP.

    This reminds me I need to get that Led Zeppelin tee that's been sitting in my Amazon saved items list for months... The only other band tee I have is a Kyuss one I haven't worn yet. Each time I pick it up I'm thinking, "Oh, no... People are going to be inspecting me closely if I wear this." I don't really like being inspected.

    According to hearsay, The Expanse (show) has been resurrected for a fourth season!

    ETA: This makes me very happy.

    I'm happy they bumped it to 60 FPS for consoles. I've read the original had some framerate issues, particularly around areas like Blighttown, and that isn't something you want in a game this difficult. I died several (extra) times in DS3 from frost-themed enemies because their particle effects slowed the game and threw my window for dodging off.

    Either your story is VERY short, or you're REALLY old. ;)

    First message posted from my new desktop computer. I still need to get the data recovered from my old one, and until then it's going to be hell trying to remember my passwords, but fortunately I've got a bit of a system for that (part of which is that all the non-monetary passwords are, well, not very strong at all)

    Just so happy the sun is up by 5:30 during the summer. Morning chores are so much easier when I can see.

    Flies. Ticks. Walking through spiderwebs. Flies. Mowing 2 acres of foot-
    tall weeds with a push mower because the lawn tractor is broken. Muggy and 95 degrees and it's only May. Is that sweat running down my back or is that a tick? More dadgum flies. Caterpillars tearing the dickens out of my pepper plants. Rooster with attitude. Sticking the top half of my body into the chick coop to clean it before noticing the baseball sized wasp nest being guarded by three miffed mahogany wasps. Splinter under my fingernail.

    I was going to post this in the not-so-happy thread but I just can't do it. I'm laughing too hard.

    It'll be released on Switch in June I think. I never played Demon's Souls cos I didn't own a PS3. :( Would be fun to get to play it, though.
