F social media. This is my social media. You may have people occasionally talking about a trip or something here but it isn't the center piece of what the place is for while FB or Instagram is pretty much consumerism on overdrive.

100% agreed with you on this. Me saying the social media thing with a strike through was purely tongue in cheek.

It bothers me quite a bit that when we go to a concert or trip or something, it seems a significant amount of my wife's enjoyment is to take pictures that she can share later.

But also if she's enjoying that, who am I to stop her?

Logos? Yeah we're just getting rid of those. They serve no purpose so they will be replaced by janitors.

How will I ever be able to develop an identity and identify with other people of my clan, without sports logos?

I don't know, but you can be molested by one of the extra janitors which should take your mind off of sports allegiances.

Everything I could think of to reply to this comment made me feel like a worse person than usual, thanks.

Yea, the only thing I would count as social media I have is Snapchat and it’s starting to become that as well. This one girl will make like 20 video stories a day about her vacation and her husband curses her out in most of them.

I keep my Facebook because some of my friends will make Facebook events for parties and get-togethers. I've also got a few groups for messaging for like fantasy football or discussing game of thrones.

I make a post about once every other week.

Yea, the messenger app is better than texting, especially if it isn't imessage. Facebook announced it was trying to go more private now so idk what that really means but I'd think their trying to be more like wechat, whatsapp, discord or something. Making closed groups more prevalent.

Hey @Tufts, can you give Coder the cheesecake recipe?

If you like cream cheese she's got a helluva smoked fish dip too. The diet is going good so far. Not as limiting as I thought. The weight-loss is no joke. Down 20 lbs. since April 1st. Currently at the weight I'd like to maintain. Chia is a must. Not that it's great or anything, but a tallboy of Michelob Ultra has under six grams of carbs. It's helped with the beer cravings. Was gonna give up the sauce altogether but a drink once or twice a week has been the norm. Sucks how only 2-3 drinks make you feel the next day like you had 10-12. The money savings is great though. :)

@sickc0d3r Here you go:

My choice of drink is a dirty Tito's martini.....although I'm kinda bored with it at this point :confused: The olive juice has a negative carb count though!

As far as the movie club!

We really, really, really miss you.

This week we have to choose from Armenian fairy tales from last century :eek:.

Any of you watch Veep?

Even though GOT has been utter dog shit in its final season, the finale of Veep was tremendous. The nature of the show was really resilient to going downhill too.
