    How was school for you growing up? (Elementary, high school, etc)

    How was school life for you all growing up? I went to a mostly white school, but for the most part, wasn't too bad. I dealt with my fair share of racism from white people. Gradually I got used to it, and I ended up making friends and I think the whole thing about it, helped me grow, but helped...

    If you came into 5 million tomorrow, what would you do with it?

    I have no intentions of blowing through it. I'm someone who doesn't like to spend money, so if I was hit with a cool 5 mill, I would take a nice deep breath and come down with some kind of plan. I know for a fact I would want to go out and buy a bunch of things, but I would need to think first...

    Sex in public, know anyone who was into it?

    Sex in public, has anyone here done it or known anyone who has? Honestly, I did date this one woman who tried to get me to do the deed in public, but I just couldn't push myself to do it. We didn't last too long anyway, she was cool, but wasn't right for me. But, I was reminded of her recently...

    Dealing with mental illness, do you have any conditions?

    Therapy is a great help. I used to take medication for depression as well, and I too had some weird side effects. I think it was wellbutrin that I took. It made me wake up late at night and I would kinda sleep walk. I'd have these vivid dreams and then I'd feel like I'm still in them as I wake...

    Dealing with mental illness, do you have any conditions?

    Mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of. We all have our own form of issues. I myself have some decent social anxiety that has pushed me out of a lot of social situations. Aside from that, I think I'm undiagnosed bipolar. There's days where I'm just not in the mood for anything, and days...

    Know anyone who keeps going back to the same person?

    That sounds horrible. I couldn't see myself dating that many people and then going back to them. Even a tattoo? That's messed up lol. I'm going to bet no on it lasting too. :D Yeah, I think a lot of people fall into something similar. They stick together because it feels correct, but there...

    Was reality TV ever good?

    As a kid, I enjoyed the shit out of reality tv. I sadly watched too much of the MTV and VH1 reality shows back in the early 2000s. And those shows were often just drama and more drama. One show I do got some respect for, is that Joe Schmo Show, where they pick one dude and the rest of the...

    Black Friday trailer

    Michael Jai White better be using some kung-fu on some zombies, or I'll be a cranky boy! But seriously, this looks like a lot of fun. Also, can't go wrong with Bruce Campbell.

    Cowboy Bebop (Netflix)

    I don't know how this is going to end up. I've never watched the original anime this movie is based off of, but I'm sure there are some fans of the anime here who are interested. From the trailer, it does look quite good, but of course, I'm going into this blind. Check the trailer out below...

    Know anyone who keeps going back to the same person?

    A lot of my friends and family have had some odd relationships. Some that clearly don't work. One of my cousins for example, has been married 4 times. He married his current wife, twice already. They divorced back in 2008, and went separate ways. He married some other woman in 2012, but it...

    2 Pics: What Would You Do?

    I can't stand when women cake their face with makeup, it spells a bad sign that something isn't right. I'm all for women feeling comfortable in their body, but to me, I feel too much makeup looks worse in some cases. In this case, I would feel it's pretty deceptive. I view it similarly to some...

    What concerts have you gone to?

    Have you ever seen any bands/artists live in concert? I went to a 50 Cent concert when I was in my teens that was awesome. I also saw Smash Mouth against my will one time, but was with friends so it was bearable. Other than that I saw Kendrick Lamar a little while back and that was one of my...

    Alec Baldwin accidentally shot and two people on a movie set (one died)

    Heard about this last night. Really sad news. Reminded of when Brandon Lee was shot dead during the making of the Crow. He was shot with a blank. Why wasn't there people on set who handled the prop guns? I imagine being Hollywood they would have some sort of handler for the guns. Unless Alec...

    If they take Chappelle off Netflix, he'll release his specials himself

    I think they're going to stand tall and keep the special on netflix. Even with the backlash from the LGBTQ community, I don't think it's going to be enough to take it off. Especially with how much they paid Chappelle. And honestly, this special probably has been watched even more since this fuss...

    Do you think marriage is dying out?

    I don't agree it's dying out. I think it's slowed down a bit, but I have a feeling we'll see a trend of it making a comeback, where people do really want to get married. And keep in mind, marriage does give a lot of benefits, so I consider it worth it to get married one day. I don't know if I...

    If they take Chappelle off Netflix, he'll release his specials himself

    It seems more backlash has come due to Chappelle's recent comedy special. Over 100 people walked out of the Netflix offices in protest of the special. Honestly, if this results in his special being removed, I hope he releases it online somewhere else, or even for free in spite of all of them. I...

    Kanye legally changes name to "Ye"

    He's been going by Ye as a nickname forever now and I guess he saw it was time to change his name. Maybe he was just too lazy and didn't want to write out his full name any longer. What do you think of his name change. Think he'll still go as Kanye West with his albums? Or will he go as Ye...

    Are the Detroit Lions ever going to have a winning season again?

    Dude, it feels like the Detroit Lions never have luck. They were probably their best in the years when they had Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson. They did good at some point, but then they fell back into the same habits of continually losing, and now they're just a shell of a team. Stafford...

    ROMs and Emulators

    You should get a raspberry pi device and install retropi on it. It comes with all the emulators you'd want, you just need to find the roms. A lot of the sites that have roms are being removed due to copyright claims though, so it can be tough to find the right sites. Google should help you find...

    Do you think artists get paid enough on Spotify?

    I heard a while back, that Spotify doesn't pay artists a whole lot. I don't know if that's true or not. But how much do artists tend to make through Spotify? How much does Spotify get from artists? I imagine big stars probably get paid in other ways, but the smaller, indie stars, are they...
