  • so many good options on here already so I’ll add one that’s a little more of a dedicated game:

    Arkham lcg.

    you create a deck that represents the character you will play in a series of approximately eight games where you cooperatively work through Lovecraftian mysteries loaded with interesting stories lore and twists.

    has almost a tabletop RPG feel to it if it was converted to a card game, absolutely love it.



  • my wife and I are joint, just easier that way. what surprises me more is that someone would set up alerts for the low expense levels that would be triggered by Taco bell.

    I don’t really understand why folks would do separate it just seems like more trouble for no benefit unless there has been a specific reason or issues to trigger that.

    (for example my dad and stepmom had separate accounts after she spent so much one Christmas that I had to pay their rent)











  • I can kind of get behind like Grandma renting out a house that she spent 30 years paying off so that she isn’t starving on social security alone kind of stuff.

    maybe like an allowance that an individual could at most have one home they’re renting out. there should also be significant controls about the price of rent, maybe tied to the price of home purchases so that renters could not get screwed paying more than they would have had to pay to buy the place.

    but in my opinion no corporation should be able to rent homes.

    honestly even apartments should be required to have a lease own option that is not significantly different cost than renting.





  • so I actually had a friend years back who worked at a junkyard.

    I was hanging out there with him one time (definitely probably not smoking anything…) and he was still clearing things out.

    so he grabs a propane tank and brings it up to where he has an oxyacetylin torch, lights the torch and starts cutting into the tank.

    I about shit my pants and took off at least 50 ft back behind a car asking if he was trying to die today.

    apparently I was the one that didn’t know what I was talking about though because of a second later he cut through and it just popped a little flame.

    he just let that flame burn until it was out and that’s how he knew the tank was empty.

    apparently these things are very hard to blow up.
