For some reason I can vividly remember a scene where the son tries opening a locked door with his dad's credit card and it breaks in half. Then he goes to tell his dad but luckily for him his dad gets a new CC in the mail that day.

That and one of the female characters has my name which is the only place I have ever heard of a female with my name. Which is perfectly fine but when you are little kid it's not so fun!

It's so hard to find remotely good games now... I have hit the point that I don't even bother looking at anything but paid offline games but even those often have microtransctions. I am glad that you can get a refund most of the time as long as you only used it less than an hour.

Yeah... I have lived in MI for 39 years. It's always been super cloudy but we also have IMO some of the most beautiful natural resources around so even if it is cloudy there are plenty of ways to get out of funks. There are only so many places that you can see multiple inland freshwater seas in a single day.

It would be insane to take them out completely they are an introvert's dream and most people prefer them for smaller shopping trips. Now if every store went to the scan and go model then I would be okay with them being gone. Scan items as you shop and then pay from your phone. The only interaction is an employee at the door just quick checking your receipt by scanning a few of the items. It's glorious.

Home owner's association. Neighborhoods have common needs such as landscaping and other infrastructure that doesn't fall in someone's property. In theory these make sense, you have a group of people who set guidelines to keep the neighborhood nice. However, what often ends up happening is the group pushes their own agendas and it is no longer for the common good.

That has been my only complaint with this app. It's just so frustrating when trying to read a screenshot.

I got firstlastname on Gmail and I find it a curse now. There are old people all over the place with the same name that simply can't remember their email address and end up using mine. I have had everything from non profit fun runs in North Carolina to aerial crop photos from Idaho that apparently farmers pay for? It was like a $100 a month service... . Luckily I use first.lastname so I can filter out their emails quickly since they never have the . Occasionally when it's an email from a small company or something like that i send responses but most of it I just junk now.

I just spent the last 2 hours before bed playing Minecraft with my 7 and 5 year old and I ate chicken nuggets for dinner... I may never grow up....
