  1. 1st of 3 days off and had pretty mega back spasm and in lot's of pain. knocked the wind out of me. currently seated with ice pack hoping to go numb.  

     

    so much for my hopes of enjoying 3 days off

     

     

    Heat works pretty well on back spasms for me. Hot bath, hot water bottle, heat patches...keeps the muscle from seizing up. Happens to me every year or so and it's the worst.

  2. Like Joyrex said, the Switch Flip Grip is a quality accessory, and really one Nintendo should have included, or at least produced. This is the way Donkey Kong, Galaga, Pac-Man, Dig Dug, etc. were meant to be played.

    It's really clever and well made. I have been playing a lot of Ikaruga with it.

     

    Just picked up Guacamelee 2 for Switch as my sanity preservation game for the holidays. 

  3. The last few years I have kept a list of all the movies I have watched and rewatched and assigned them a rating of 0-3 stars.

     

    ( 0=waste of time *=alright **=pretty enjoyable ***=fuck yeah)

     

    It's just for me so I remember what I've seen and to encourage me to watch more movies instead of mainlining padded out Netflix shows. 

     

    Don't laugh at me, I was once like you.

  4. Bit hot and cold on the Dj Sprinkles collabs, hot on this one for sure though

     

     

    Only video I can find of it and the lame cocktail party house Dj mixes out of it halfway thru. Sweet :(

  5. Second season of Counterpart starts this week. I liked season 1 very much.

    COUNTERPART 9 p.m. on Starz. When this multidimensional thriller debuted about a year ago, the Times critic Mike Hale called it “the most entertaining new series of the winter.” J.K. Simmons stars as two versions of the same character. One is a low-level worker with the United Nations in Berlin. The other, living in a parallel dimension spun off from the real world 30 years earlier, is a coldblooded spy. The first season ended with the two versions of the characters each getting stuck in the other’s dimension. The second season, debuting Sunday night, picks up the story from there, allowing Simmons more time to delve into the nuances of this challenging double role. “I considered all kinds of subtle things in terms of appearance that ultimately seemed unnecessary,” the actor told The Times earlier this year. “Because the more interesting thing was how has a person really changed at his core in the second 30 years of his life due to his environment, his experiences.”

    What was the deal with the UK keeping the Sterling and not going to the Euro? Were there any other exceptions or nuances with the UK membership in the EU? 

    it's not just the UK.

     

    19 of the EU 27 use the Euro, the following don't... then there are 6 non-EU countries / states that do use the Euro :emotawesomepm9:

     

     

    Bulgaria – Lev

    Croatia – Croatian Kuna

    Czech – Republic Koruna

    Denmark – Kroner

    Hungary – Forint

    Poland – Zloty

    Romania – Leu

    Sweden – Krona

    UK – Pound

     

     

    Those Eastern bloc countries only joined after the euro was introduced. Like Sweden, they are in the ERM so are supposed to join when certain conditions are met. But Sweden has been kicking the can down the road for a couple of decades now, so who knows what will happen. The Danes and UK opted out of it entirely.

  7. Watched a comedy film called The Predator. The Narcos man steals the alien's hat and gives it to his son who dresses up in it for halloween. The space alien wants the hat and the son because he (the son, not the space alien) has Aspergers and .....they like that.
