  • The Drew Gooden video I'm watching has a section where the background music always sounds like the music from Blooper Beach in Mario Party 9.
    My masscom major friend is so upset about how my school handled the bad weather today that she's going to vent her frustrations by writing an article about it.

    I'm so glad that I can now say I own a shirt just like this.

    It's a joke because everyone hates Comcast but we just have to deal with them. Comcast is like a fact of life or something.

    I don't even know what that is so I wouldn't say I have to deal with it

    I guess they do services like cable tv, internet, telephone, and wireless, plus they own NBC and Universal. Seeing the huge Comcast/NBCUniversal headquarters in L.A. was kind of cool
    Remember how I said I had a story in the works that I want to submit to the Shroom?

    Good news! I just finished it today and I'm probably going to revise a little before I send it in.

    Bad news, maybe: it's 13 and a half pages long, although that's double spaced and in Courier New so it wouldn't be nearly as long on a Shroom page.
    Thank you, Applebee's for putting the spoon that came with my dessert on my receipt. It cost me a whopping $0.00.

    Oh, man. I don't think I could afford that.

    I can't believe they charge that much. It's highway robbery. Like, seriously, shouldn't we have price regulations on that stuff?!?

    Maybe reading the 3600 word excerpt from my novel at open mic and trying to talk to people over loud music wasn't a good idea while I'm still getting over being sick.
    Good news, I get to be the emcee for open mic again tonight.

    Bad news, my throat is really irritated.

    I would have to go to health services at school and they don't have walk-ins as far as I know so I haven't been able to get checked out.

    Well, you could got to the doctor's or something though, right? I have a Med Stop where I live, plus local doctor's offices nearby.
    I just want to be able to hear out of my right ear again D:

    Did you find out what you're sick with? Is it COVID? Like I said, I recently got over that.

    I wish I knew but I don't have a Covid test readily available.

    I think you should go to the doctor, just to find out what's wrong. Like, if it's something dangerous, why risk it by staying at home? It probably isn't anything really bad though, so don't worry about it. Just get yourself checked out. ⚕️
    This is the second big outage Spectrum has had in less than a week. I hate them so much. I desperately want to get rid of them and pick anyone else for my internet. I'd go back to Comcast over Spectrum.

    I use Spectrum too but outages are rare for me. At one point I tried to switch over to T-Mobile but they didn't have service in my area so I am stuck with Spectrum. (why are people on the boards so early, like shouldn't you be asleep at 2:00 AM?)

    @Natalie J. I'm hoping you don't also have Spectrum as your satellite or cable provider. That would probably be even worse.

    I have literally no reason to pay for cable so thankfully I don't do that. I only pay for their Internet and I'm definitely going to drop them after I move.
    I had a fever yesterday but today I'm just sweating a ton by being under my blankets. It's not like my blankets usually make me sweat this much so I'm not sure what's going on.

    It could be COVID. I recently got over that and for the first few days there's a fever. It's really miserable, too. I think you should go see a doctor just to make sure this isn't something serious.

    Also I have to warn you the first one to two days are the WORST ones. I mean the first day you'll have really bad congestion and body aches.

    I also had COVID recently as well but I'm fine now. You'll feel like you're dying but you'll get better soon and be as good as new.
    Something is going on with my laptop. I'll just be using it like normal, suddenly hear a Windows error noise, see what looks like a loading screen, and then it will act like it's off. I'll turn it back on and everything will still be there so it actually went to sleep, I guess?

    Anyone know what's going on?

    As someone with a Windows laptop, I would suggest describing your problem to Microsoft Copilot or other AI chatbots, they can be incredibly helpful with technical problems. Otherwise, I would look through your sleep settings, battery settings, etc, to see if there's anything obvious. It sounds like it could possibly be crashing, which could mean processor issues, so I really don't know what to tell you

    @Natalie J. This situation reminds me of how I had two laptops from two different brands-one from HP, and one from ASUS, and they both suddenly died on me for no reason at all and I couldn't get them fixed. It seriously makes me wonder if laptops are much less reliable than desktop computers. I don't know. Maybe this is all coincidence. But regardless of what it is, I haven't bought another laptop since.

    I'm a college student in the year 2024 so having a laptop is pretty important to me. Whatever this problem is doesn't happen often enough that it's a massive issue, it's just kind of annoying. I don't need to urgently replace my laptop.
