  • God yes!

    My brother and I used to play it every day! He was usually my only defender when I’d inevitably get accused of cheating. “Sorry dude, he doesn’t need to cheat. You just suck.” So many good times. Loved doing paintball and shotgun duels. Then I broke my headset and couldn’t find another one. I drifted toward PC gaming and when they shut down the SOCOM 4 servers, my brother gave up gaming.

    Both of us keep hoping they’ll finally do a new one that has crossplay so we can team up again.




  • Shortly after Donnie finds out…

    Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

    ​The RADICAL LEFT wants you to eat bugs and kale. NOT ON MY WATCH! We are building a massive reserve of Big Mac Coins. High quality, high VALUE! I met with the Hamburglar—great guy, very misunderstood—and he agrees: the Mac Coin is going to the MOON! Crypto is fine, but you can’t eat a Bitcoin! A total disaster for SLEEPY JOE, but a HUGE WIN for your stomach! 🇺🇸🍔💰 🇺🇸#BigMacStandard #FastFoodFinancials





  • Yes, actually, some players had thicker spindles.

    So here’s the story, at least as far as I understood it… 45s were created during a format war between Columbia records and RCA, a la betamax VS VHS, cd/dvd vs laser disc, or Blu-ray vs HD DVD. RCA’s 45s were designed to compete against Columbia’s 33s as both of them fought to create a sturdier successor to the old shellac 78 designs and bring a more reliable standard to the industry.

    The larger hole was claimed to be a design feature that gave the records more stability, but really, RCA just wanted to make them incompatible with other players…

    In the end, 33 LPs won. Turns out, people and musicians wanted whole albums, not just singles. Whoda thunk? However, 45s ended up being perfect for jukebox players. Plus, we got those nifty convertors, also called a spider, that ultimately made it so it didn’t matter as long as your player had a speed setting.

    Fun fact, my first record player ever was actually a Fisher Price, and if you look, it’s got a built-in 45 adaptor that just popped up when you pressed it. It sounded about as good as you would expect, but I loved it.

    I’m gonna go feel old now…







  • In a sane world, this would be articles of impeachment met with unanimous shouts from the rest of the government. In a sane world, the people wouldn’t have forgotten how batshit insane his first presidency was. In a sane world, he wouldn’t have gotten any further than “grab em by the pussy.” Fuck, in a sane world, Trump would have died years ago from a stroke and/or heart disease from a combination of the McDonald’s he constantly eats and the syphilis he undoubtedly has and the best legacy he’d have left behind is “You’re fired.” That is, of course, until we found out just how involved he was with Epstein and any scant trace of him or his celebrity was wiped off the face of the earth in disgust.

    We don’t live in a sane world.




  • Santa Claus/Christmas?

    Have to go to the mall and sit on Santa’s lap to tell him what you want for Christmas. If you’ve been a good boy or girl, you’ll get it.

    Sugar daddy relationships usually involve exchanging sexual favors for gifts. Quite a few of them also include kinks like bratting and/or praise kinks, i.e. “Good girl.”

    The analogy should be pretty obvious.
