    You absolutely, definitely should - keep throwing money at little stuff meant for those big "someday"plans... That way, you'll never have the money for that printer, and then you won't get sucked into a hugely expensive hobby... :p

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    This resonates hard on a deeply personal level. I feel seen... (There was one point many years ago where if anything locked up, I'd simply hit the power switch and start all over rather than wait for it.)

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The only difference between me and a professional plumber is that I've done the job you want me to do five times in my life - the plumber's done it five times that week... You're paying for their experience. (Side gripe: People who think that I should do something I'm paid to do for a living...

    That movie is impressively packed with talented actors, some of them serious theatre folks. I've never quite figured out how so many notable actors happened to need a quick paycheck all at the same time, lol. I used to own House and House II on vhs, and I've seen III and IV...

    I think you misspelled piabh... Or maybe piadh? :p And, really, guys? How hard can it be to pronounce Gaelic words when they don't even use six letters of the alphabet? :rolleyes:

    D&D 5E (2024) Move over Owl and Bat, the best 2024 familiar is a Deer!

    In one of the games I played back in the day, the party had a bag of holding labeled "Trail Troll Rations"... :p

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I just looked myself up... Nothing on me in the first ten pages of me, although apparently a fair number of me are dead, lol. Fortunately, my name is fairly common in Ireland, though not nearly as much in the US. Adding the state I live in to the search turns up my address and my immediate...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Fun Fact: The coffin clock in The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a legit antique and contains a real skeleton... On a vaguely related note, I have occasionally been known to pick up a random plant and intone, in great Shakespearean fashion, "Alas, poor Garlic... I grew him, Horatio. He was a...

    The Fifth Element Returning to Theaters

    Honestly, the way the movie biz goes, earning back double your production cost is pretty much the basic requirement for not being a flop... :rolleyes:
