What are you doing or what did you do today?

Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

What are you doing or what did you do today?

Actually, I've wondered if a thread like this could be useful or whether we should just turn the Letting Off Steam thread into a general conversation thread to achieve that purpose. I've noticed other boards make use of a general chit-chat sort of thread in their off-topic sections for "What I did today" kind of stuff, perhaps we could try it.

So we'd have a half-dead "general talk" thread in our half-dead "general talk" section?

Also, those forums probably have people who are interesting.

That's rather glib...though point taken. No harm in trying these things though.

So right now my sleep schedule is fucked due to Summer vacation, so I can't get to sleep until like 3 in the morning. In the meantime, I'm posting on these forums, and preparing to go to a small music festival tomorrow by listening up on the more obscure acts.

Bear In Heaven reminds me of Deerhunter a little. (Y)

I'm terrible when it comes to getting to bed early. I still get up at a reasonable time unless I've actually been out late the night before and tend to catch up on sleep with afternoon naps at the weekend.

If you go to bed early, and don't have a DVR, you can't watch Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld. Image

Well, I guess this doesn't apply to anyone who just posted since Andrew gets it at about 4 in the afternoon, and Lamecock gets it at midnight. Lucky bastards, especially the latter. It's been raining for the last few days and everyone is butt hurt about it, rain is great especially when it's part of a front, much better than oppressive stagnant 90 degree with 99% humidity while the grass all dies from lack of rain and there's no wind.

See, Letting Off Steam is just find for this. If it's good news it can go in the Good News Thread and you can be banned for lording over everyone with your "perfect life" and "lack of alcohol fueled anger and hatred."

Well like I said, maybe we can rename that thread so it doesn't just have to be about bad stuff.

We don't want to hear about people having a good life, who wants to hear about that? We want misery! Schadenfreude!

Being accurate about the misery that is life in the Steam thread.
Braggin about luck in the Good News Thread, followed by bannings for said braggarts!

This thread works for good news/bad news scenarios, like when you are running, and you feel endorphins, but don't know how to stretch properly afterwards, and will be sore the next day. Or when you get dunked on by Patrick Chewing.

You updated your dynasty story?


I'm all for this Twitter thread as it may be.
Today I will play some basketball after work. Maybe some tennis. If neither pans out, then I will have some Svedka cherry vodka and watch a flick.

I think the point of this thread is to show how interesting or exciting life can be in the mundane. For instance, I worked today. The exciting part? Wait for it...
if you were killed tomorrow, i WOULDNT GO 2 UR FUNERAL CUZ ID B N JAIL 4 KILLIN THE MOTHA FUCKER THAT KILLED U!

Anyone have any exciting weekend plans?

I'll be heading down to Sydney in a few hours for a friend's Bucks Night, pretty much a whole day affair beginning with lunch and ending with a pub crawl, with a drive back sometime Sunday afternoon.
