Literal Roman DVD goddess.
I feel personally attacked.
Then get your prostate checked you old fuck.
(i need to as well tho)
Like medically or just for funsies?
First one then t’other.
I just learned from my doctor that you can poop in a cup and mail it off somewhere instead of getting the finger up the butt. Yay! Now I can procrastinate and not do something only mildly unpleasant instead of not doing something miserable.
Wait no shit?
(insert joke here but seriously)
Yeah. Basically, she said finger-up-butt is good for 10 years but poop-in-cup is good for only 3 years, and if they find indications of a problem in the cup-o-poop then you have to go get finger-up-butt anyway. Still worth it in my book.
Do I send it someplace in particular? Or just ‘to whom it may concern?’
Back in the '90s you could apparently send a letter to Michael Jordan by just addressing it “Michael Jordan” and nothing else. I think the poop cup works kind of the same.
Note that I am not telling you to mail your poop to Michael Jordan.
I have this haircut still.
CAN’T WAKE UP!
Wake me up inside!
Save me!
Call my name and save me from the dark!
Still blows my mind that they’re a Christian rock band.
Sure you’re not thinking of P.O.D?
You know, “Instead of a test, I took two to the chest” was definitely an eye-opening lyric for this Canadian to hear, Christian band or not.
Not knowing this song, that line could be interpreted as a school shooting song. Does “Pumped Up Kicks” have some competition? And people say America has no identity.
Look it up, Evanescence is a self-proclaimed Christian rock band.
They’re not explicitly a Christian rock group, and not self-proclained. Amy Lee and Ben Moody met as teens at a Christian youth camp, and Christian radio loved to play Bring Me to Life because they thought it referenced the resurrection.
Just the other day, I wanted to take off my hoodie and tie it around my waist. Then I realized I could literally talk about the 90s like “I tied my hoodie around my waist, which was the style at the time”.
It’s so convenient, I don’t understand why it ever went out of style
I did it at a baseball game on Saturday. Wore it when it got chilly. Put it around my waist when got warmer. Success.
I miss wearing short-sleeved graphic tees over long-sleeved white tees. Everybody reminisces about the '90s flannel shirts but I feel the dual tees thing was more representative of that era.
Short sleeve graphic tee over a long sleeve white tee, Jnco jeans, a big ass wallet chain, and some wrap around the back Sony headphones for the diskman in my Jean pockets. I was preeeeety cool.
In my version of the 90s it was a flannel shirt tied around my waist
i still have a wallet in my car with my discs. I dread the day I have to give up this car.
I drew all over my CD wallet with a white out pen. Because that’s what you did with things that were made of that binder material.
I remember having a cd player that could play mp3 cds in my car, that was great. Music for hours with no skips or having to swap anything
Fancy people had like a 10 cd changer in the trunk
Under the passenger seat
And it was a 6 stacker, not ten
I drive a 25-year-old car and the only reason I’m able to play music from my phone on the car’s sound system is that it was built to accommodate a 6-disc CD changer in the trunk. For $50 I was able to hook up an accessory that plugs into the changer port and fools the car stereo into thinking the audio signal from the phone is actually coming from a CD changer. Unfortunately my newest phone of course has no 3.5mm audio jack and the USB-C adapter has like a third the maximum volume of a normal plug. Oh well, better for my hearing at least.
I have found that different USB adapters will vary wildly in their max volume and sound quality. I bought a Google branded one from a local retail store and it kind of sucks. I ordered a higher end one and it gets louder and sounds better at high volume.
Interesting! Can you link me to the one you ordered?

That’s the good one I have. I’m sure there are other options but it has held up well and sounds good!
You could go on and get a chip that has aux output and bluetooth input so you can have that extra bit of convenience.
But it’s still bullshit to remove a feature on a phone.
Mine has all the games I can’t buy anymore
I hope the asshole that stole my CD wallet from my truck years ago is in a better place in there life now, but I’m still sore about it… Fucker…
Happened to a family member, he was depressed for weeks. Like hundreds of dollars in those cases.
Reminds me of when I was going through stuff in storage years ago and found my box of music and game CDs. I realized I could just download anything I wanted from that box and tossed them. Felt like a waste, but I didn’t want to deal with finding someone who might actually want them.
The only thing that makes me feel old here is that I don’t think anyone remembers what the title of this post is referencing, the war of Man vs. Machine…
mine were in the visor
I recall being told that CDs were bad to keep in cars because of the heat.
I always kept my CD wallet (a small one with 10 discs that I’d switch out every now and then) under the seat and never had a problem. Before I had that, I had a CD case that kept maybe 20 discs in their jewel cases that I kept behind the driver’s seat, and no issues there either (though that was MUCH harder to swap discs while on the road). I also had a visor holder that I later used in the motorhome with MP3 CDs (now I could take my whole collection!).
In the early 90s, I paid $300 for a very basic in dash Sony CD player with output for only two speakers. Somewhat early adopter tax.
How dare you make me remember these things and realize how old I am!
I never had a CD wallet and I never had an MP3 player and I don’t have a subscription to some shitty streaming service for music either…Am I weird?
Radio was an option. If you followed no music, then yes you were odd
I no longer have any device capable if playing or even reading CDs, but I stille have mine on the wall as if I built a shrine to how much of an old fuck I am 😄
I still have mine at my parent’s house. Probably a mix of music and PS2 games.
Music and PC games in my case, pun intended 😁
That’s the original Fallout from 1997 near the bottom 😁
Recently I went and bought a vinyl, cd, cassette player. I busted the cd wallet out of the closet and bought a bunch of cassettes and vinyls at the flea market. It makes listening to music more of an experience, instead of just background noise on my phone
I actively use mine at work.
Your wall? Yeah, those are really handy for keeping the rain out of your keyboard 😉
I work in an area that doesn’t allow phones or anything.
Would that happen to be a numbered area? Perhaps one in Nevada with a number larger than 50? 😉
I wish. Nowhere near that cool.
Rip, upload, seed forever. It’s the only way to repent.
R’amen!
Hey your “Body Count • Born Dead” case is upside-down.
Yup!
So’s my Ultima Online: The Second Age case, Beatles - 1, Frank Zappa - Over-nite Sensation, my Jesus Christ Superstar (movie version) soundtrack and my promotional CD from a local disco band called Boogieknights I stumbled (in more than one sense of the word) on during a pubcrawl many years ago 😁
Is that a Mexican poncho or is that a Sears poncho?
Hmmm no foolin’?
I recently got a second hand DVD with a Wii game on it, and for the first time in many years I found myself wiping down a disc with a microfibre cloth. I actually cleaned it like 4 or 5 times before I stopped getting errors, which makes me wonder if there were discs from the 90s that I could’ve saved that way. I never realised it might take that many tries.
Burnable CD/DVD from the 2010’s are reaching the end of their lifetime already.
Did that song from Ghost start playing while you did it?
