Is it normal to dream of Mars Attacks? In my dream, Cuba Gooding Jr was in it and Snoop Dogg too. They had a lot of coke with them and the aliens were attacking the building we were in. I think the building had 10 floors and the aliens looked like ground beef. They came out of the elevators.

One guy was killing them with an axe and he was complaining about pacifists ‘oh okay so now everyone’s angry with me because I’m killing amorphous blobs of ground beef, really???’
I think you mean the shining
 
Good question.

What’s this about?
Part of that VA benefits thread. Dude was talking mad shit for a guy that had linked his IG account and personal photo himself in Mayberry. AC dropped the bomb on him calling him out for a DV history and other shit

Here's a small story my fellow Sherdoggers should appreciate
So, i'm at work the other day, and a contractor dude shuffles up awkwardly beside me. He has a French accent and stammers something out a few times. He finally raises his voice enough for me to get that he's saying there is no toilet paper in the bathroom. I was like, uh, alright, I can let my boss know to call custodial.
He stares at me for several increasingly awkward seconds and then
"So, do you live around here?"

Got a solid chuckle out of me. Good joke imo.

There's a bit I'm working on that I'm walking a tightrope on.

"I don't support going to plantations because I was at Oak Alley and was sipping mint julep on the veranda and I thought to myself. Ohhh now it makes sense"

But that needs a fuck ton of rewriting before I test it out in front of a black audience lol

Remember Super Mario 64?

Some Japanese kid beat it blindfolded in under 30 minutes. I don't even.
That's nothing compared to what some other players have achieved with that game. This guy was able to beat the game without pressing the A button and also traveled to parallel universes in the game. He also discovered the concept of a half A-press and beat the game with only one such half A-press.
Since August 2013, pannenkoek2012 has challenged himself to beat Super Mario 64 by pressing the A button as few times as possible. This is significant because the A button makes Mario jump, a maneuver which is practically required in platform games like Super Mario 64. In one video, pannenkoek2012 showed that he was able to collect the "Mario Wings To The Sky" objective without pressing the A button by exploiting glitches that enabled him to "clone" a large amount of Goombas to form a ladder. This challenge took him two years of planning to achieve and the video took 55 hours to make.
In a notable case on January 12, 2016, pannenkoek2012 uploaded a commentated video for the "Watch for Rolling Rocks" objective. Highlights in the video include an explanation of his "half A-press" notation, his use of a hyperspeed glitch to reach "parallel universes" (a collision glitch caused by integer overflow), his methods to manipulate the motions of the Scuttlebug enemy, and many other techniques that are almost never experienced in regular playthroughs, to obtain the star with only 0.5 A-presses. This strategy originally took thirteen hours in-game from start to finish, most of which were spent "building up" enough speed (i.e. exploit a glitch enabling the player to gain virtually unlimited in-game speed) for the "parallel universe" movement, but has since been reduced to 5.4 hours.

Don't they use bidets in France? Tell Frenchy to hit up the sink.
 
@tonni your post reminded me of this

"I went to the video store and asked if they had the movie with Nicolas Cage and Hayley Mills. It was shot in black and white on color film. It was the one where they lost the war because they made all of the submarines out of styrofoam. Then I realized that wasn't a movie, it was a dream I had. Then I thought how cool it would be to rent your dreams. The guy says, "that's not a movie, that was a dream you had." I said, "how did you know that?" He said, "you tried to rent it last week. "I said, "well, let me know when you get it in.""

Was it a sherdogger, that had you pegged for a sherdogger as well, and was fishing for a username and thought you might be @tonni so it was a test to see if you were the custodian?
 
I have some but mostly in retirement plans so I can't touch it.

Nothing wrong with that. He allegedly begs for change on street corners. I would say it’s a big difference.
