Maybe it's just me then, because any time time I read PYF games threads I feel like my brains are melting about 5 pages in, so one day I said "that's enough" and never looked back.

So new GBS just seems like old GBS with more attentive moderation, I'm not really sure why they needed to shut it down to achieve that but I'm pleased with the result so okay.

Yesterday I went and unplugged my son's computer while he was playing minecraft, just to prove I could. I'm sure he'll be way more diligent about good building practices now.

that's a drop of over 150 in a week, to put that in context

The frightening/unnerving PYF thread is great, though.

Also I got a lot more done at work while GBS was gone and I was mega probed. I'm glad it's back and I can post again because a sustained increase in my productivity would reveal how much time I was wasting before

did anyone do some word play with the fact sub could mean a sandwhich or a [guy in a fox suit] yet? I bet that would be ripe for some quality [y]iffing!

For real though, I worked out and walked around during my down time and work and lost enough weight to literally "tighten my belt" 2 holes or whatever. I'm pretty proud of myself, tbh.

This is cool and good. I would have gone to the gym a lot more but my wife's car completely poo poo the bed so we're down to one vehicle. I stayed home and did pushups and situps and free weight stuff which was cool as long as I could ignore the $30/month I'm wasting on my gym membership.

Now my car is actually acting up too, it's an '08 Hyundai Elantra that I've taken pretty good care of but the TCM just flips out and refuses to shift sometimes. I've had it in the shop four times already and apparently all the hardware looks completely fine, it's an issue with the TCM itself. I mean, it's good news, I was kind of expecting to have to rebuild the whole transmission, and while I have the money to do it I would really rather not, y'know? But the problem is nobody can figure out what the gently caress is going on with the TCM so sometimes I'm just stuck driving in first gear for ten miles, and it sucks.

I spent hours trying to get an adblock extension working so I could remove the stupid gif background of C-Spam in time for the debate. Then when I finally did it, there was nothing funny in that forum. It was just the same as reading D & D.
