My wife and I finished season 2 a few days ago and we agreed it was a huge improvement over season 1. Then we watched the opening of season 3, and we're like, "Where the hell was that before?! That was awesome!" I hear episode 4 is amazing. Looking forward to watching it.

Oh that's awesome. I do like Kraftwerk so this should be right up my alley. Thanks for the response! 😊

I've done that! Maybe this time is the time I finally get through it....and nope, still not interested.

Technical chapters in fantasy books that go into great detail about the systems of magic are something I don't often enjoy. Looking at you Brandon Sanderson.

Good attitude to have. Not worth it if it's not something you enjoy.

Oh I totally understand skipping those chapters. It's like Melville just wanted to show off how much he knew about whaling.

Ok, finally watched this. Some really good advice there. I totally agree with his point about being dumb in your 20s. I read The Great Gatsby last year and 20-something year old me would not have enjoyed it, but nearly 40 year old me thought it was pretty good.

Oh that looks interesting. I'll report back when I get a chance to watch it.

Yeah, the instant release never really had that effect on me (maybe I just timed my lunch when the first tablet wore off?)...but definitely feeling it on the long acting. Guess everyone is different.

I remember how excited I was when I first nailed moving from a G to C chord. Progress is progress! Well done 👍

People seriously use "123456" that much?! 🤦

"Nude Man in a Barrel" is a great band name.

Do you think anyone will guess "Pa$$Word"?

It's just trying to make sure you stay on your toes. Will the car break down today? Maybe? Who knows!

My issue is that my handwriting is so bad that even if I had something of value to write I would be embarrassed writing it down.
