Interesting to see everyone's perspective!

I love phone calls myself. I think I like how they have a start and finish. Text conversations often just sort of slowly fizzle out.

I also tend to like concise communication. Phone conversations are like a ballgame; you have someone's full attention. The same conversation seems to take ages via text.

Mind you, I dislike voice-mail. Then I'd rather get a text. Oh, and I don't mind sexting at all!

I just like having a face and their expression to go with the sound of one’s voice. Ironically a lot of people say text is hard to discern tone from but I find it easier than a phone call.

I prefer sexting in person by far 😆
 
Theres so much context and timing that gets lost and forgotten when you look at a txt retroactively. For work, I will overthink what I'm planning to say before a call, but once they answer auto-pilot kicks on and the messages go acrossed. Cadence is disintegrated and the tone goes flat in a txt. Its like reading lyrics to your favorite songs

Work emails take me forever to construct, it will be scrutinized retroactively

I remember that, I think they got pulled from Pluto when Amazon bought the rights. I just hope that never happens with the MST3K and Rifftrax channels!

When I was a kid TBS used to have the 15 days of 007 in December, I saw the vast majority of them from those marathons. Between stupid school and the inevitable need to sleep certain movies I’d catch a dozen times, others were elusive, I used to just press record on my VCR when I’d leave or sleep and tape over VHS tapes until it got something I hadn’t seen. Keeping in mind I had no real idea the release order at the time, and early 00s cable TV guide was just an excruciatingly slow scroll that you could only see an hour ahead of. God I feel like grandpa Simpson telling a story lol

Indeed!
Plus Roger Moore is my favorite Bond.

I figured I'd post here vs adding more Bond talk in the Picture thread...

Big surprise last night! Just yesterday Pluto TV brought back the 007 channel! It plays all the bond movies in order with commercials. If I recall there are maybe one or two of the movies they don't have. Hope they keep it around for a while. I have every James Bond movie but rarely ever put one on, for some reason I really enjoy watching them on "TV". :zshrug:

Cheers!

Don't forget to set your clocks back tonight, day light saving time ends. Worse freaking day of the year, I never get used to it! >:(

I’ll take the dark mornings over the 4 o clock sunset any day. I remember a lot of serious talk about doing away with daylight savings previous years but not so much this year. Seemed like the one thing both parties were behind too.
 
We used to go to the strip club; 2am magically becomes 1am, so one more hour of fun!
We did that all thru the 80's and 90's.
All those chix would be in their 60's, lol.
 
Any bets on the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight? I can't say I expect it to be a great fight, but at much as I disliked Tyson, I think I dislike JP more. Would be nice to see a vintage Tyson beat the shit outta him. (Or bite his ear off😆)
 
My money is on Tyson. Figuratively that is, I don’t have any actual money on it. But having seen both of their training videos, and the fact that Tyson bitch-slapped him at the weigh-in, I don’t think Jake Paul knows what he got himself into.
 
I hope your both right. I haven't watched JP fight as I've thought of it as only exhibition thus far. And TBH I haven't watched boxing for the last 25 years. Used to watch some work my Dad back in the day
 
I watched it. The fights leading up were better. Idk if it's just cause Mike is old or if he was acting but it was hard to watch.
 
I heard the stream was a mess too, every time I’ve ever sprung for a month of Netflix to watch a Netflix exclusive(like say The Irishman) I’m always left disappointed.

I have already come across a lot of memes just about the stream buffering. But it was Chrystal clear and uninterrupted when they showed Mikes ass.
 
I couldn't watch it. Tried a few times to reboot and then went to catching up on a couple other shows. The first flight was horrible. The second one was pretty good. Didn't get a chance to watch the women's match. Netflix can give up doing that again
 
I think I'm having an early on-set Alzheimer's moment here.....

Where in my profile do I go to check what posts I've made? I can't seem to find that function.
 
Stumbled upon these. Interesting that the other sources each say "12 left in stock." What do they mean by Non-Electriconic ?

Non electronic sounds like a distinction between ARC and non-ARC SC shocks but Marks didn’t have that. They also call them StRuTs which they aren’t so… don’t worry about it.
