  1. Lol. Oddly enough, this is exactly how I feel about most every presidential election. I did vote for Kanye last time though.
  2. Rented this a bunch as a kid. Pretty good. Turbo makes it better.
  3. I'm not voting. These are all terrible. Love me some Van Halen but that synthesizer sucks.
  4. Nice musicbox stein. What does it play?
  5. Don't really celebrate, other than I like a good Oktoberfest beer and sausages. And September is good beer drinking weather. Been to Oktoberfest in Munich too.
  6. I'm big on For Your Eyes Only as well. Great theme song. Great opening scene where they kill "Blofeld" which is a pretty funny jab at MGM since EON didn't have rights to use the character at the time. The downhill ski chase scene is classic. And the pair of Lotus Esprit Turbos are dope. The maroon one with the custom ski rack is sharp, but the white submarine Lotus is over the top Bond gadgetry at its finest. Edit: Oops! Got For Your Eyes Only mixed up with The Spy Who Loved Me. Well, they're both great anyway.
  7. Practically never. I mean what have the Romans ever done for us?
  8. I get that for sure, but I think it works for the Moore era. I have a bit of nostalgia for the inept good-ole-boy sheriff trope that was ubiquitous in the 70s and 80s. Reminds me of Dukes of Hazzard's Boss Hog and Roscoe P Coltrane.
  9. Huge fan. Likely the franchise with the most 10s on the Reed scale. I'll go with Never Say Never Again as my all-time favorite. Pretty much a remake of my other favorite, Thunderball, but it has that sweet Domination video game that I always wished I could play. The Connery movie are pretty much all perfect except for You Only Live Twice. Moore era is great too. I particularly like Live and Let Die, For Your Eyes Only, and View to a Kill. (Christopher Walken is such a great villain!) I became a fan with the Dalton movies. He didn't get enough credit in the day, but I many people have come to appreciate his efforts as a kind of primer for the grittier Craig flicks. I watch them both fairly frequently. Pierce was pretty great. Particularly Goldeneye, of course. Also really dig Die Another Day. They're all pretty over the top 90s, but still has a lot of that tongue-in-cheek camp appeal that Moore had. I don't come back to those as often but they're still great. Craig was a great reboot to the series. He had that diamond in the rough quality that Connery had. Less slick than the other Bonds. Casino Royale is a masterpiece but Quantum of Solace is my sleeper pick of the franchise. Great pacing; down and dirty revenge at its best. Love the ending. Don't really care for OG Casino Royale but it's not part of the franchise. And I personally throw Lazenby in the lot and pretty much ignore them both. I was looking at watching some Nightmare on Elm Street 6 tonight but I guess I'll settle in with some Moonraker having been inspired.
  10. Never played it and probably never will. I know the franchise has its fans, but Lawyer Game sounds terribly boring. "Quick, press the acquit button!"
  11. Nintendo will fix or replace your joy cons for free. You don't even have to pay shipping. https://repair.nintendo.com/cc/soConsumer.html?lang=en&sys=SWTCH&type=JOY-CON That said, my last refurb set lasted all of 6 months and I've been too lazy to open another ticket.
  12. I'm not trolling. I'm hyping! Gonna retire off that KD Mario one day...
