  1. Nope. A pee can is something you keep under the bed, according to my grandmother, who was a direct descendant from and two generations away from the Old Three Hundred.

    They had can in the old 300 days? Granny was just lazy and making shit up.

  2. Just started it back up. WTF with that Pretty Woman trying on clothes montage, and any time she’s on screen all I can see is that Dana Delaney’s had so much work done to her face that there’s absolutely no movement from her top lip to the scalp line.

  3. I have loved listening to AM and FM radio for decades and I have never heard a single tradio segment IRL.  Is it real or is it just another in a long line of bullshit? Meh.
    You just have to accept the show is a 70 year old man talking to his 72 year old friend about the same things they've discussed for 45 years, with an occasional interruption by third-rate comedians pushing bottom barrel bits.

    Very small town radio is very real. Last time I was through I believe either Columbus or La Grange had it
  4. I have a lil bit of an issue. I enjoyed the movie, very solid entry and storyline. But… While I understand that the ships are built on what 1978 thought 2120-something technology would be, but with even the current touch screen and 4k tech on cell phones I found the VHS with tracking issues styles of the monitors and Apollo style lights and punch buttons distracting along with the constantly glitching lights everywhere. I can’t imagine what will be standard in another 100 years, but I can surely say it won’t be that. As I say it’s certainly probably just me. Still loved the movie though.

  5. Farmer types… How long can corn stand in the field? Most fields here were cut a long time ago, but like everywhere along the coast we’ve had a shit ton of rain and there’s a bunch of fields with stuff still standing. I figured it may just be too wet to get in to cut it but it looks like it’s about to rot. Is it just a different variety or are those fields lost?

  6. Youtube ads popping up in the middle of songs are irritating enough, but even worse is the fact that - for me - about 80% of the ads are for either Sweetwater or Discount Electronics, both of which are already getting a couple of grand a year worth of business from me.
    I feel like writing the sales/marketing departments of both and telling them they need to tell youtube that they aren't going to pay for ads to existing customers.

    Having been a teen in the 8 track days has made me somewhat impervious to being interrupted in the middle of a song. Song /fade / loud click / song resumes, was just how life was back then.
