Saturday Night Open Thread

The New Zealand terrorist drove a white Subaru.

Apparently dead people come back as birds.

SNL ain’t what it used to be.

Internet anonymity brings out the worst in people.

Also, with the number of birds in the world, you'd think there would be a lot of dead birds basically everywhere, but you almost never see a dead bird. What gives?

The rain is coming down so heavily that I can’t go outside. And I like walking in the rain.

*cough*

I slept most the day. Took a sleeping pill at 6am woke up at 630 pm. For second day in a row I had catfish. Watching a Lassie movie with Janet Leigh. Trying to find some porn with Elder Call from MB to jack off to.

I think Amazon prime video is better than Netflix, even though they do charge more. Netflix has a lot of stinkers and I'm surprised that this isn't mentioned more often.

R9 do you prefer Netflix to Hulu? The hub wants Hulu and I told him it's either Hulu or Netflix since we already have Prime.

It's only 2C in Dublin. A frosty St Paddy's Day eve.

R9, Netflix is all about quantity. They throw everything at the wall and hope a few things stick.

I posted "ooga chaka, ooga ooga" on some thread about songs you hate, which got me at least 40-50 likes. Now, I 'm always thinking about how can I top that, and then I think to myself, what a fucking narcissist. Please like my post, folks.

You know, if I wanted to I could stay in this apartment and never leave. Whole Foods now delivers. Postmates will bring you anything locally. Amazon will ship anything straight to my door. As long as the internet stays connected, do I ever have to go out again?

R10 Believe it or not I haven't tried Hulu yet. I have access to regular cable, prime video and Netflix. I feel that I have better luck finding decent stuff on prime and am often dissapointed by Netflix . Perhaps some Hulu users here can chime in.

I have both but I probably watch Netflix slightly more than Hulu.

I got Hulu on Black Friday for .99c per month. Loving it so far for the old sitcoms but not as many movies as Netflix. I’m been making my way through Seinfeld, Golden Girls, Bob Newhart and Married with Children.

When the wind is right I call smell the food cooking at the Chinese restaurant 2 blocks away. The garlic is the worst for making me hungry.

R11 It is but normal for the time of year. I’m in my house in County Offaly sitting in front of a roaring coal fire and won’t be leaving the house until Tuesday. Paddy’s Day here is school kids marching in the parade and people getting drunk.

R18=Ed Norton waiting for the smell of Moo Goo Gai Pan.

For the first time in years, I'm having Hamburger Helper for dinner tonight.

R21, I envy you.

Have had a bad cold all week and couldn't call in sick because of staff vacations, etc. So I was looking forward to this weekend very bad to relax and kill the cold. Didn't leave the house all day even though it was finally nice here in NYC. I just laid around and napped. I feel so much better - just in time for another brutal week at work.

Tomorrow is Sunday. I'm getting up early and going to the baths. Making a day of it.

The license plates came in the mail today for my new car. The randomly issued number ends in 666. What's weird is that I'd already named the car El Diablo, because it's red. Perhaps I should replace the dealer license plate frames with ones that say "Nissan Of The Beast."

American here --

Countries I have visited: Canada, Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, Brazil, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Fiji, New Zealand, Australia, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Russia, England, France, Spain, Grand Cayman, Jamaica, Martinique, and Bermuda.

R26=Uncle Travelin’ Matt from Fraggle Rock.

Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!

I slept the whole day away. I feel guilty and just plain shitty.

I’m kinda glad my dead relatives don’t try to contact me.

George Carlin did a great bit on contacting dead relatives and vice versa. I miss him and comedians like him who ripped both sides to shreds. I’ve been trying to watch some comedy specials on Netflix but don’t make it past 10-15 minutes. Same 5 topics every comic talks about, the men need to stop talking about porn and the women need to stop talking about one night stands. Seinfeld’s little show “comedians in cars getting coffee” is a pleasant time waster.

I saw someone pick their nose and eat it at CVS this afternoon.

OMG. You weren't supposed to see that, R32!

I thought I was alone.

Which is better Duane Reade or CVS? Which one do New Yorkers prefer?

Does anyone know this song or can discern the lyrics enough to google it? I love it and would like to know. Download link is legit. Any help would be much appreciated. xxxo

I’m worried about money. I keep thinking about the man who dumped me well over a year ago. I’m now clean and sober over 33 years. Finished sanding an Art Deco desk today that I plan to stain. Made club sandwiches for dinner. Two different friends married to their male partners for over ten years had their partners tell them they were in love with someone else, and wanted a divorce.

I’ve been single for over three decades, and lately haven’t been as worried about it.

I’m now 70.

Isn’t DL fun!

Entire day with family doing St Patrick’s day events. As much as I dread it, it really was such a warm, loving feeling when it over. Fulfilling and connecting. Even if it is the antithesis of what I would choose to do if given the option.

I don't understand why people move to New York City and then sit in their apartments on a Saturday night and play loud music. There are plenty of wonderful bars and clubs they can go to and dance to loud music. I'm an old fart and I had my days of clubbing and dancing. Now I just want to sit in my apartment and read a book or watch tv. The dudebros below me are young and sexy. Why are they holed up on a Saturday night listening to loud music that talks about nikkas and hos?

Worked with homeless guys at NYPL on 34th street. Finished off half a bottle of Malbec. Ate Chicken&Rice from a food cart. Now hoping for sleep.

I like the Madeleine McCann series on Netflix but it could have been shorter.

I just finished watching all 3 seasons of SALEM on amazon prime, and am now directionless.
