  1. Three times this week! I very rarely dream anymore, so this was a strange deal.

     

    The pumpkin is in some sort of paper bag. I take it out, slice a bit off of it (like cutting slices off an apple) then I eat it. The pumpkin is already hollowed out, but nothing carved on it. I lift the top and see the bottom of a crow (or some sort of medium-sized black bird) that was stuck inside. Then I gag, throw up and then wake up. This morning was kind of a sequel. I did the same thing, but remember telling someone 'oh, God. I did it again' before retching and waking up. 

     

    The last reoccurring dream I remember, was probably 30+ years ago. Running down a hallway, which somehow lead to the top of a building. I'd jump off, hurt my legs and then do it again. The hallway reminded me of the one from The Shining, so maybe that was a factor. 

     

    Maybe I'm just going insane?

     

    You folks have any reoccurring or F'd up dreams? 

  2. My family almost made it through Thanksgiving without any political talk. We made it to the last quarter. And within 5 minutes, it went from the BLM corruption, to Trump, to abortion, to my Uncle leaving very abruptly without saying good bye to anyone.

     

    And it was strange because, for years (since my grandma passed), everyone tried and successfully, stayed away from political conversations during family gatherings. I don't even know how it spiraled so fast tonight. I even tried to interject with a joke, letting them know that the news said to stay away from this type of conversation during the holidays, but the ship had sailed. 

     

    But up until that last hour, we had a very nice time.

    Forgot how frustrating this part of the game was. Must be because I have no sense of rhythm :p I'm fo off that every time I hit B Yoshi ends up jumping instead of running 

    I'm not that far in, but the Midas River bit didn't hold up to well with me. I mean it was ok, but not very exciting.

    Sincerely fun on all levels. So many call backs to the original trailer, a fuck ton of nods and winks to numerous other slasher based flicks of the last decade, a fun whodunit and all around solid with rewatchability! I'll definitely snag this on physical!

    Does it have a satisfying 'end' or is it like most slashers where the killer gets shot, stabbed, burned, bludgeoned and electrocuted all at the same time, but still manage to come back?

     

    I don't mind either way, but I'm at the age now where I don't know how many sequels I'll be around for!

  5. Alright. I'm more than half-way through the regular game. It's fun, but I do miss the comforting familiarity of the Mushroom Kingdom. I want to collect stars, not seeds. The few power-ups are fun. I like the badges, but it gives me anxiety trying to choose the best one for a level. Also, I am not good at rhythm games, so the few rhythm levels don't do it for me.

     

    I am enjoying it, but the rumor of a Super Mario Bros. 3 remake has me even more excited.

    The Christmas Season lasts from December 25 until January 6.

     

    That is the only time acceptable period during which Christmas music should be played.

     

    And it should be Christmas carols only - none of that nauseating secular hogwash!

    I know you're ready...

     

    It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid
    At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade
    And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
    Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time
    But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones
    At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun
    There's a world outside your window
    And it's a world of dread and fear
    Where the only water flowing
    Is the bitter sting of tears
    And the Christmas bells that ring
    There are the clanging chimes of doom
    Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you

  7. Battery or alternator. We recently had an issue with our mini-van. A faulty AC relay kept draining the battery. I thought the battery was bad (and it probably wasn't great), but it died a day after I switched it out with a new one.

     

    I'd probably start by getting the battery checked. Autozone checked ours out for free.
