We've had the Amazon Echo for over a year and we just got an Echo Dot so we have full coverage in the apartment. 90% of our lights are smart bulbs so now no matter where we are in the apartment one of the Echos will hear us and we can control the lights. Light switches are for suckers.
 
We use "echo" as the wake word instead of "Alexa" so sometimes random shit makes it wake up. Especially shit on TV.  But when it wakes up and listens, it uploads the audio too the cloud and you can go and listen. We were going through and listening for weird shit. A lot of TV shows/movies and us saying weird shit to the cats. We clicked on one and it was us having sex and we almost died laughing.
 
 
There were like 10 clips of me watching the new Gilmore Girls and my girlfriend was like "What the fuck is this shit?" and I had to admit to binging through all like 7 hours of the new season while she was at work. Alexa be snitchin'

Just confirmed I'm seeing Nothing at a burger bar on 2/9...something positive on the weekend

Same here! It's 19 with the wind chill, and I just finished watching like 1/4 of an inch of snow fall on top of my flooded yard, then disappear... If you've got food, entertainment, and good brown liquor, no need to leave....

Glad to see I'm not the only one, haha!  I loaded up on groceries after work last night, I definitely won't starve!  No brown liquor, but I've got plenty of beer to fill that void.

Goal for the weekend is to not leave my house until I go to work on Tuesday (working from home Monday).  Once the temperature starts hovering close to freezing, I kick into hermit most as best I can.

Huawei is good. Just make sure you look into software updates for the model you're looking at. Like how their new phone is shipping with 6.x and not getting 7.0 til Q2. Crazy. Are you looking into a new phone or new phone and carrier? You can get a Nexus 5x for $200 on Project Fi. Fi is no contract, unlimited talk and text for $20, and $10/gb. So damn good. Plus since they are Google phones they get updates fast, usually the first models to get them. I have a Nexus 6 that I've used on Fi for two years and it's still a champ. I'm about to upgrafe to the 5x cause it's too good to pass up. My old roommate just got it and loves it -- just switched to Fi too. 

Have to love that we are "forced" into having health care, but there is no enforcement or regulation on the bullshit that the providers do to hurt the insured.

Well, it's not like I'm outside standing in it . I did shiver quite a bit on my smoke break, but I was only outside for about 10 minutes. When the actual temp is below zero, and the windchill is in the -20 or -30's, that's when it's not fun at all. You don't go out, even if you have to.
 
Edit: Brain's a scramble. Nice on the tweeters. Install them yet?

Good morning everyone  
 
We all have our times, and words can help a lot. A few very awesome people here have helped me keep my mind afloat when it was sinking for sure. The power of positive strangers is real! Much love back homie <3 
 
Planet Fitness takes a lot of shit talk from people, but they have a great gym here and are serious about not letting you feel like you don't belong there or letting people be rude or hassle you. Talk to the front desk people, they are always willing to help out avoiding a shitty confrontation, especially when someone is just using the equipment for a seat...
 
Stay strong brother. You know where to find me if you need a shoulder...
 
Ok, so, maybe a low of 17F is a gift... I cannot imagine dealing with negative temperatures. You're built of stronger stuff than you realize duder! Oh, btw, finally got my replacement tweeters for my Polk bookshelf speakers yesterday after complaining in October....

@Thomas³, @KingTacoMunster, @GHOSTDRONES, @NapalmBrain, @GreatGreenOne77, @chkadea,
 
Thank you for the kind words and offering to listen and allow me to vent. It's immensely appreciated. Sometimes we just need some words of encouragement to pick ourselves back up and keep on keepin' on.
 
Love y'all.
 

 
 

Thanks! She's giving me a run for my money but I'm catching up on lots of video games and TV seasons thanks to the sleep embargo. 

I leave for London on Monday. Holy shit. 

Let's all go visit Brian at the same time! VC Portland party.

Yeah I just picked up Judas Goats and Dieseleaters from them for $10 so $12 for 2x7"s was a little "eeeehhhhh" but in the end I was just too stoked for new Ed Gein.

Nice!  I saw them in late 2012 and it was a very memorable show.  We were right at the stage and the girl I was seeing at the time had to move because it was so loud that she felt sick, haha.  Even had earplugs in.

Thanks for mentioning Sunn O))) @jonrawks. Grabbed tickets for that DC show so I can catch them finally!

On my way to see Rainer Maria

Went to pick up my January whiskey today...ended up getting January and February.

that's awesome. my right arm has been done for about 8 years and I went a good gap of time without getting anything since so ive got 3 since june, hopefully it keeps up. im just excited to come up with all the ideas for my horror sleeve, so much to choose from!

Just finished up my left arm.  Took about a year and I'm very glad to have it done.  Now to move on to 'ol righty.

its going. ready for this 4 day weekend! yourself? feeling better?
 
 also pretty much got confirmation that I will got more work done on my horror sleeve on 1/13/17 which is a Friday, so you know what that means  

That's some poor customer service there, but at least you're getting it. Never fun buying new stuff with issues.

Fuck you 2016...
 
 
Just fuck right off
