Trips and I have probably played a lot more Aces High than you Animl. We don't want to see it fail. I'm perfectly happy to see the current subscriber base continue it's support indefinitely.

I was called a "boomer" once as an attempted insult by one of those younguns. He was completely confused when I said: "Nice try, I'm GenX"

That's just a Boomer-lite.  ;)

I'm in the very, very last edge of the Boomer cohort, but I identify as a Gen-Xer.

That is my choice.  Don't oppress me!


Toxic, psychotic, self-aggrandizing drama queens simply aren't worth me spending my time on.

Sig line failure.

At least you recognize your reflection in the mirror.

That's basically what he told me.
Maybe they stay until they figure out it's a monthly fee and the "free" is 2 weeks. You should read the steam comments. There is a quiet common complaint about the monthly sub.

What I recall hearing from him is that all the paying subs would cancel and go FTP.

Did you know that 40% of students who start out in engineering finish as psychology majors?

I took psychology in college. Guess I should have taken abnormal psychology for the manipulation lessons.

I heard psychology had a high level of female students. Would be worth taking it for that if you were a college age man no?

You can identify as anything you want as long as I don't have to use your pronouns :)
XX or XY... That's the identifying factor that can't be changed.

I've read the current college student ratio is now 60/40, female/male. Unrelated, college ain't what it usta be.

If we're gonna "forgive" student loans let the colleges pay for that. Why should you and I?

What's the pronoun for Gen-Xer?

"Duuuuude!"

I think Millennial's is "Bruh!"

True, they're already using the money they stole from us to send to Ukraine to try to start WW3 and to the illegals to try to encourage more to come. The colleges should pay their fair share!

I just realized you and my plumber are from Sherman. Small world.

You speak for yourself.

I got 9-10 yrs in here, I’m not new. Plus my own contributions in those years. Been into MMP fir 35 yrs. I’m not new to anything. Trips operates like drug dealer con. Literally mention that game 1500 times. Heard this frog fart in the water 300 times. Not a damn thing hionest about him. Its slow manipulation, make mentions non stop. Seen 200+ marketing conferences by the big boys.. I know every slithering trick.
