It's a really, really boring song, but then you hit the chorus and there's this beautiful harmony between the two women's voices, so you're sitting there thinking, "This is boring. This is boring. Why am I listening to this again? Oh. Aaaah."
Impus Major: Father, you've discovered power metal!

I love Metallica and Megadeth has some good stuff, plus Clutch, Sepultura and White Zombie and what not, but for the most part my tastes have diverged into punk, grunge and hip hop.
Yeah I went the complete opposite. Punk and grunge I just never much cared for and hip hop is way too close to/has a tendency to bleed into rap too much for my taste. Just not my genre.

As a longtime computer geek, it's amazing the kinds of things that I'll let slide, vs. the things that infuriate me.
Your server's down for a few hours? Meh. Stuff happens.
Your transaction entry can't handle an amount of $136.5, and refuses to let me proceed until I put that 0 on the end? C'mon, guys! String parsing's been a thing since the advent of user input!
Yes. I have a hyphenated last name, and there are still many web sites out there that can't handle it. There are web sites that insist that you put -no- punctuation into your phone number fields (5105551234), and web sites that won't work unless you do (510-555-1234).
Writing a string parsing algorithm to handle common cases (hyphens in names or phone numbers) takes under 15 minutes, and has virtually no impact on performance because users are so much slower than processors anyway.
So such things are just a testament to the laziness of the programmers who created the interfaces, and the QA people who let them pass.

I put some tiles into the garden. While not perfect, I like to think cap Yesterday would be proud of me, making do with the tools that I have. (just a shovel).
Lacking a rubber mallet, I just used the tried and true 'bouncing up and down' method to pack the earth under the tiles.
Now I just need to monetize that bouncing.

I bet we can all think of a few ways to monetize your bouncing.

I was finally able to get out and mess around with my Starfinder Deck of Many Worlds and I can report it is both fun and easy to use.
Which is saying something coming from me because if it's one thing I can confuse and complicate it's card games.
I take it you are not a fan of Magic: the Convolution

I've made no secret of my hatred for Magic: The Gathering.
