This is the fault of two persons:
Dafuqboom who didn’t tell Invisible Narratives LLC that Garry´s Mod is a mod of Half Life.
And the ones doing the DMCA, Invisible Narratives LLC, aka the people that are making the Skibidi Toilet Movie

You couldn’t make this shite up :joy:
Wonder how long until Valve also gets dragged into this since everything about this shite was made with their assets

Sounds like Invisible Narratives are… out of touch:sweat_smile:

Aww HELL YEAH :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I’d just add to that list Ponyo and Howl’s Moving Castle as my favourite 5 Ghibli Films.

Ponyo is not one my favourites (I’ve only seen it once and I have reservations about Liam Neeson in the dub) but man is it adorable.

Howls Moving Castle isn’t something I’ve seen in a while. I’ll have to rewatch that when I next get Netflix.

Since a week ago, I’ve been working as a PC repair summer intern at a small company. The administrator of my section happens to be really old. Today, while demonstrating some electronics to me, he actually said “good old days when the transistor was invented” :grin:

he probably didn’t mean the first one but a newer generation of widespread use, but that doesn’t reduce the irony

So what’s up. Summer vacation is almost up. Back to work in two days.

I have to admit that I have become a bit fat. 95,9 kg. at the moment. Damn. This is so far from my peak days where I was training 6 days a week and had a healthy diet.

My reason for stopping fitness back in the day was basically that I lost interest and motivation when I had my first boy. Now, raising 3 small kids and managing a full time job, this has been my number 1 priority to put almost all of my energy into. But it is not an acceptable excuse to let go of your body like that. Taking care of your body is the most important thing (besides your family!).

So what is up is that I need to loose weight and go to the gym like I used to some years ago. But going to the gym will be the “easy” thing, the hard part is eating healthy and have a somewhat clean diet without falling back to the unhealthy food.

I have a soft spot for over eating food that I find delicious, or eat “for fun” when bored or just having snacks (especially chips!) when watching series/movies. It is almost blasphemy for me watching your favorite TV show without enjoying snacks to it.

Anyway, this is what’s up and my focus at the moment.

Are you still lifting @Norseman?

Yes, but 3 times a week. I would love getting back to 4-6 day split, but Sif needs to be a bit older before that’s possible. Might not be able to train at 5-6 in the morning anymore, now it’s when she’s tugged in for the night.

I have no plans to stop lifting before I’m in the ground. Who knows if it’s possible I’ll be lifting in great halls of Valhalla.

I’ve noticed some topics seem to have stats at the bottom. They appear to be views, likes, links, users, and the top 5 posters, along with a read time.

I have too. It’s a bit annoying, but if that’s just how the forum is now because the service provider changed things, we’ll all grow used to it within a week.

Well congrats to @Norseman for stealing the Top 3 Most Liked comments on the What’s New thread with all three relating to becoming a dad/having a daughter! :laughing:

I enjoyed being an election worker. Much more relaxed than I thought it would be. But I guess that’s one of the benefits of working in a rural area. I’d imagine in some of the heavily populated cities it’s an entire other experience. We didn’t have many voters so during the free time we could do whatever while we waited for time to pass. The township also provided us pizza for lunch so that was pretty nice. :pizza:

Forgot this was still in the works

not to mention the whole Peter Dinklage situation of him seeing actors having dwarfism playing dwarf roles as an insult when he himself played one that made him pretty rich and famous. :roll_eyes:
