Your pointless thoughts & observations

I bet several 2020 political candidates will roll with some variation of "perfect vision" for their campaign slogans.

I'd vote for Visions of Truth

Damn, I miss playing that game.  I stopped after the hdmi input on my tv died several years back.  Never bothered looking into getting it fixed.  My life is probably better for it.  But I do look back fondly on my xbox days.

I've never understood people that walk into a room, and start a conversation with "yeah..." then begin to talk like you walked into someone else's conversation. It's like they've been having an internal discussion with themselves, and you're just the one unlucky enough to have to hear them think out loud.

I have some degree of social anxiety (not crippling, I still speak to large groups and give presentations, teach classes etc) but I catch myself starting a conversation with "uhh..yeah" sometimes and frequently it's where I didn't have confidence going into the discussion. Self talking through scenarios is something one with anxiety does frequently.

That is the ideal environment to record a room tone.

Are guys better at gaming than girls?

I guess most girls just aren't interested in gaming.

I love it when people send naughty inside jokes to each other but it accidentally gets onto the distribution list.

I regularly experience a sense of dread at the prospect of accidentally replying all when I'm forwarding the contents of emails to others with my suggested responses or thoughts

I have a horror story in this vein.

Sometime in the mid 2000's, I once texted a friend to let him know a particular chick we had met, a while back at a show, was... let's call it available (DTF). A few minutes later, I realized it was her that I texted this information about herself to.

Not my shining moment by any measure.

I like to think so, but I seriously can't remember. She played it off like it was no big deal. Had a falling out with the guy friend not long after iirc.

At any rate, I try to be careful with texts and emails now 

I've done that in chatmm. 

>send private message to person I know in chatroom "christ [nameofchatmember] is a fucking idiot"

Oh look, I've sent it to them, oops

I once watched as the entire email system collapsed in a multinational corporation (100k+ employees) because somebody accidentally sent a response to a company wide distribution list and people started to respond to that and respond to the responds which created a snowball effect. Basically all e-mail servers were overloaded in a matter of hours.

Ah, even t-shirts were made to commemorate the incident.
