GAAAH!

I haven't seen the new Star Wars, and I'm not going to see it for at least another week! AND THERE ARE SO MANY SPOILERS ON THE INTERNET BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE ASSHOLES.

Must. Resist. Looking at. Star Wars thread.

My brother and his fam won't be in town until next week and they stated they were waiting to see it until in Indy so I said if they could wait then so could we. I feel stupid now for that claim and am in the same boat as ya Shrapnel. I warned my wife last night that I might lose my will and sneak out for a midnight showing but I stayed strong.

I've been playing a LOT of video games since Star Wars came out.

I'm at Christmas dinner with my family.

To my knowledge, I'm the only liberal in the room... And apparently my family mostly likes Trump.

*sigh*

The real kicker is that I was driving, so I couldn't drink anywhere near as much as I needed to.

Me and my lady are trying to get food and no place is open. bunch of slackers, I've worked nearly every Christmas for the past 20 years.

Look for chinese? Denny's is also usually open.

Count Arioch the 28th · Fri Dec 25, 2015 4:19 am

Tried both, no luck at this hour (granted, this is a crappy midwest town and it normally shuts down at 2100, there's only like 2-3 places that would be open this late and I tried them all). Ah well...

This is where I would say something like "step one- move to a better place," but I gotta imagine the cost of living there is pretty good, at least comparatively.

I live in a place that's easy to make money in but hard to spend money. That's a good spot for me to be at this stage in my life (although considering my health has gone to shit in the last couple years I may not live to see 50 anyhow, but who knows?)

A couple Food places open on the holiday evenings: hospital cafeterias. Movie theaters.

I feel your pain. I think I'm just going to start slapping my grandfather in the face everytime he utters something factually incorrect.

I was fortunate to be far enough away from my uncle and grandmother to just hear that they like Trump and Cruz, and want them on the same ticket, not any bullshit "facts"

Currently trapped at home because of the tornado that hit nearby. All of the emergency vehicles have the roads blocked. Fortunately, we have water and my phone battery has a great charge, but I am bored sitting here in the dark.

It is for this reason my family owns multiple decks of cards and board games.

That blue dot to the side is where I live. Glad I have a friend nearby that I was able to crash with, and that I didn't live along the red line...

Happy New Year to you too! Mine came almost ten hours ago, though.

I look forward to the calls from my wife's family who call to wish happy new year at 1 am as they live west of us.

I had a lady over and she was cuddling with my cat and asked what its name was. I told her that it's name was Chewie and the lady called me a nerd but ended up getting mauled shortly after I explained that I only named the kitty that because she bites anything that moves quickly. Almost funny enough to make up for not getting laid.

Heh, we named one cat Kirby for her appetite. It has caused some confusion since all our cats are female and one of my friends has it in his head that Kirby must be a boy's name since he always calls her a "him". I never thought video game Kirby had a gender at all, and the only other Kirby's I know of are Kirby by their family name, not their first name. *shrug*
