Uniforms on the MLB side seem to be getting worse after the start of the season. There have been instances already of pants just ripping apart. Now, there have been sweat stain issues with the uniforms too. Some teams like the Mariners, Rangers, and Brewers are still waiting on full uniform sets. It’s been a chaotic mess.

Return to Sender (2015)

The ending is 0 to 100 fucking insane. It’s like Rosemund Pike decided that she wanted to make a Gone Girl 2. It’s a horrible film, but incredibly memorable due to that crazy ending.

They don’t want you to spend time in the restaurant. Less and less McDonalds PlayCenters are surviving. The seats in the restaurant purposely get uncomfortable after 20 minutes of sitting. Harsh lighting. Drab surfaces. They want you to get your food and go. Even better if you use the drive thru or mobile app. Any modern fast food restaurant like McDonald’s, but especially Starbucks, does not want to be your “third place”.

I’m assuming US?

One thing to note is that the US started requiring back up cameras in all cars manufactured after May 1, 2018. Your best bet to find a dumb car would be to look at base trims of some cheap 2015, 2016, and 2017 cars. Cars like the Elantra, Forte, Sonata, Altima, Versa, and Sentra did not have touchscreen displays in their base trim. I know because I basically lived in rental cars during those years and am very familiar with all of them.

Now, definitely watch out on the Korean ones though due their cheapening out of security equipment…but the Kia Boyz have probably salvaged titled all of them by now. I would also be hesitant on buying a used car with a CVT because it’s a crapshoot if the previous owners actually kept up with the mandatory maintenance on them.

I think the Mazda 3 or Toyota iA are good used car choices to keep on your radar. There is a “screen” in both cars, but they are dialed controlled when the car is in motion. They both have a REAL automatic transmission too. No CVT stuff to worry about.

For anyone that has last played the game 2 or more years ago, go and revisit it. The game has had continuous improvements that make it worth a revisit.

Yeah, back in the late 90s, Circuit City exclusively sold PlayStation and didn’t even offer Nintendo products until closer to the GBA / GameCube era.

CompUSA did the same too.

Everyone forgets the old retailers, but one big argument to PlayStation beating the N64 was that the games were cheaper and available in a lot more retailers than Nintendo’s products.

Wow, I didn’t know that some states allow fast food to be purchased by a EBT card. Can’t get away doing that in the south.

M-Disc exists?

Nalgene only started to transition to BPA free plastic in 2008. They sold so many in the 90s and 2000s. Any “old” Nalgene should just be disposed.

Not much complaint about the Meta Ray-bans and those have been on sale for years now. Hell, Snapchat had three separate releases of their spectacles product and I really didn’t hear much complaints. All of these products still look goofy.

MusicBrainz Picard is what you should try out.

Also, a song recognition feature was built into MusicBee for updating tags, but it never works as well as it could be.

Fleabag is worth a watch. Not many episodes for both seasons so you can binge it quick before the ads start taking over. Great writing and acting. If you love watching people get in awkward, cringe situations, I highly recommend it.
