You know what I don’t get? It’s 10am local time, there is a vehicle in the driveway, you know a lot of people are still stuck in their homes, so why doesn’t USPS guy/gal/whatever just hit the doorbell, drop the package and walk away? Instead they leave it literally on the Welcome mat instead of the nice hiding place known as the post next to the door like UPS guy? These are the same people who broke my other package from Amazon and instead of owning up to it, probably tossed it and deemed it as lost. Yes, this is how I am starting my Friday.

Instead of my usual type as fast as possible so I can eat, I ate first and now I am typing as fast as possible so I can take a nap (no I’m not going to take a nap, I just want to mess with my cards. Writing take a nap sounds more adult-ish than play with my cardboard pictures of baseball players).

 

Chris Watches

Community - Netflix: I was in the middle of the 6th and final season when I said “why watch this” and then proceeded to start on Season 1, Episode 2 of Community. Yeah I’m just going to end this binge watch at the end of Season 4, kind of like how I stop watching the Office at the end of Season 4.

Rocket Launch - YouTube: Yeah I watched, and then NASA said no go and then I stopped. Like I was telling one of my friends, the Astronauts are in the vehicle for over an hour, they could have done the preflight stuff in an hour, that extra hour they could have stood on the platform, smoked a cigarette, maybe had a craps game, enjoy some gravity, something. Also it looked like they weren’t talking to each other.

 

Sports are coming back. The NHL said they’re starting up (we all know they’re going to Vegas). The English Premier League is starting. Not a soccer fan but I’ll watch…and then there’s baseball. Yeah at this point I could care less if there was a season. I mean we’re getting the NHL Playoffs, basketball will start up and go into playoffs, there’s going to be soccer, and when that’s all over football starts. Do I really want to watch a bunch of athletes complain about how much they are going to get paid while the minor league players are getting cut left and right? Not really.

GI Joe - Hasbro’s YouTube Channel: Did you know they air live episodes? This is what I’ve been watching while eating breakfast.

 

Chris Listens To…

I don’t listen to a lot of Barstool Sports. In fact the only thing I do listen to is there show about The Challenge, but apparently there was a huge situation with Barstool and their podcast Call Her Daddy. Since there was a shortage of media for me to consume I checked out what the drama was and it’s interesting. I listened to Dave’s take on an episode of CHD, I watched the videos that both host released and then I started watching Alex Cooper’s YouTube Channel. Her videos are quick cut, she’s crazy, but yet entertaining so long story short, I subbed to CHD. Yeah because I need another podcast.

 

Pickups

Games

From Epic I got Borderlands: The Handsome Collection. I think I already I own this on Steam, 360, PS3, and I have B2 on Vita.

 

Music

I had 5 CDs arrive from eBay. The first four were from a sale where if I bought four or more the CDs would be $2 each. If I bought just one it would be $4.

Vengaboys - The Party Album

Various Artists - Go Soundtrack

Danity Kane - DK3 (still sealed)

Mase - Harlem World

 

The other CD I bought after watching The Challenge. The Challenge has been killing it with the 90s music and during an Elimination they played Korn’s Freak on a Leash. Apparently I didn’t own but $5 later with free shipping I bought Korn’s Follow The Leader.

 

After this past week’s episode I bought another CD because of the show.

 

Alright Pixlpeeps I am off. I have a bunch of podcasts to listen to and I should take a nap (play with my cards). Have a good weekend! WASH YOUR HANDS!

 

That’s all for now, more later!

-Chris

With Community, you should watch to season 3, then skip season 4 and watch 5. 4 is really bad, and 5 is uneven but there's still some amazing eps in 5. 6 is awful though.

 Can't argue with Free Borderlands haha

I liked early Community because of how the characters evolved plus the first episode of paintball. When that episode originally aired I had the image of Senior Chang with his paintball gun as my laptop wallpaper. The one thing I didn't like was how Britta had a drastic change from the one with the common sense/trying to do good to pulling a Britta. I think what ruins 5 for me was when Troy left. No Pierce and no Troy left a hole in the dynamic that they tried to fix with the Abed/Prof Hickey episodes. After that Shirley leaving and it wasn't the same. The only thing I did like about 6 was the end.

Yup can't complain when it's free.

I guess I've been lucky in never really having issues with USPS.

The local USPS guys especially the newer ones are lazy. I once left a note telling them that the community mailbox package box was tough to open because the lock would get stuck (they knew this because the damn keychain still had the previous broken key still attached, and he responded with a snarky comment but yet the lock got replaced. It literally takes an extra 5 seconds to hide the box.

I still like Community season 6. The duds are really bland but there's some really funny episodes in there. And if there's one episode they nailed, it's the series finale. Not a perfect episode but perfect for Community

I loved the series finale. You had some closure, some sadness, some hope and it left the door open for a movie. #6SeasonsAndAMovie

Can we agree a Community movie needs to be about Abed looking for Troy so he can make a movie about their time at Greendale?

Throw in a sprinkling of Dr. Space Time, and the trackers Abed put in everyone and I'm all in.

I watched a lot of GI JOE growing up. I was really into it. That GI JOE animated movie though... that shit is insane.

Hot damn that animated movie was amazing, hell the first couple of minutes of just the intro you were like "I'm sold on this franchise". I think I need to buy another copy of it. COBRA-LALALALALALALA!
