NTN trivia. I'd go to the pub, smoke, drink and play trivia for hours.

Her music videos are really something else. My wife hates her but I'm pretty much hooked.

I have a guilty pleasure of day old pancake, toasted(in toaster), then topped with a horrible Kraft cheese slice.

I prepare them as per the directions, mix in the seasoning, then dump out the liquid and just eat the noodles.

back when I could eat it, my favorite was to put it in a frying pan with liquid to cover about half of it and add half a pack of seasoning(I find one to strong with this method). Boil it down until all the liquid is gone, flipping and stirring and teasing apart. Add a little water if noodles are still to firm. It cooks quickly, and is awesome. Highly recommend it.

Count me in on enjoying the pub alone. Couple beers, watch the game and I'm out. I've always enjoyed alone time.

I know it’s not “hip” or “cool” and that everyone hates it, but I actually love the laughter of small children. I personally find it joyous. Yet every day I come home from a long day slogging in the Sulphur mines and I’m exhausted. I smell like eggs. My shoes are full of Sulphur, and so are my undies. I get Sulphur on the floor and in the refrigerator, and I’m forced to bathe in the sink. The carpet is gritty.

Then after all that, I have to be shackled to the couch, have my eyelids propped open with tiny wires, and be forced to listen to the newscasters yell at me for six hours about how terrible the laughter of small children is? My Twitter feed is flush with hundreds of thousands of retweets about how much people hate happy babies and I’m sick of it.

If you ask me, the constant din of airhorns and barking dogs right outside my bedroom window all night long is much, much more annoying and I doubt it’s good for my health at all. Yet nobody says a thing about that! The town smells like eggs, dogs are warbling in my yard, and I think I’m deaf in my left ear. And yet somehow, every time I’m in public and a small child laughs or smiles, everyone screams and runs? And the pointing! How rude!

But I’m the weirdo for smiling?

Especially when people say Bad Boys 1 is 'way better'. I watched them back-to-back one time just to be sure -- Bad Boys 1 is really kind of a snooze, the second is way better.

Anyways, bring on Bad Boys 3.
I know this may go against the spirit of the post, but, I can't help myself. BB2 was such an unwatchable and stupid load of crap. It's almost as stupid as xXx.

Vacuuming is one. There's this unexplainable satisfaction that comes with every clink and crackle of of dust or dirt making its way through the vacuum hose.

Carpet is filthy stuff, and ideally I'd prefer hardwood or tile, but I'd have to find something else to placate my obsessive-compulsive tendencies.
