Just saying hello to the FOFC,

I haven’t been here in years, but I think about all of you guys a lot. If others have done this, I apologize. I’m not going to read the last 200 threads. Maybe one less, but not more.

I don’t have anything interesting to say, other than the fact I’m still the same guy for mostly worse, and I miss those old days of sloppy posting. Before the social media thing. I’m still sloppy, I just do it on Facebook now because that’s the only place family is. I think my brain is slowing down. I think that’s partly because everything is so easy now. You don’t have to try. You don’t really have to research. You have the internet. You are a God. Everything is before you.

The internet is the ultimate tool to mankind. And for humans that are addicted to knowledge, stats, “seeing” everything - It killed us. We have all of the knowledge that we want. Now there is nothing left.

I am addicted to learning. I have free rein to sit and study 768 - 1066, but cannot actually function as a human. Yeah, I know a lot about Charles the Great, how to build a winning fantasy football team, and Vikings, but what does it matter? I add absolutely nothing to society. I am mentally ill, an alcoholic and addicted to knowledge FOR NO REASON OTHER THAN ITSELF! And I can’t stop! Not knowing something annoys me so much, I can barely breathe. I can’t even vote, because I’m voting for other humans.

I’m gonna stop. Not gonna read what I wrote. Love y’all.

I can't help you with the first two, but for that knowledge thing could I recommend a trivia league as an outlet?

I just watched the intro to Fridays (the SNL ripoff) AFTER watching the intro to the MOVIE friday. And then wondering how ice cube and chris tucker could ever be in a movie together...then watching fridays intro then watching another of the same one with a scene with michael richards. Then reading the wikipedia of the show, then clicking on every cast member other than richards and larry david to see if any of them ever did anything more with their careers....

so now I know everything there is to know...

And....i'm sicker than you...

Yes, please.

I'm actually dieting and am proud to say I've lost 19lbs since Nov 20. Trying to make it 20lbs for tomorrow's anniversary.

Anyone needing tips, let me know. For me, it's honestly (and mostly) easier than I thought.

I think you have it wrong.

You have to get Edward wet first before he mulitiplies.

Feeding Edward after midnight turns him into a gremlin.

Thank you, sir.
