"Knack" is a great co-op game for those with young kids, my 5-year-old loves playing that one with me and is the game she learned to use a gaming controller on. Player 1 controls the progress of the game, if Player 1 dies then you return to the last checkpoint. Player 2 helps with forward progress but can die and come back an infinite # of times without affecting your place in the game.
"Hurt" Cover by Fabrizio & Hannah Marie Kelley

I came across a clip of this on TikTok the other day and thought it was an incredible rendition of the song "Hurt" and wanted to share. A snip from Wikipedia on the history on the song below if you aren't familiar with it:

"Hurt" is a song by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails from its 1994 studio album The Downward Spiral—where it is the closing song on the album—written by Trent Reznor. It was subsequently released on April 17, 1995, as a promotional single from the album, wherein it was issued straight to radio. The song received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Rock Song in 1996. In 2020, Kerrang! and Billboard ranked the song number two and number three, respectively, on their lists of the greatest Nine Inch Nails songs.

In 2002, American country singer Johnny Cash covered "Hurt" to commercial and critical acclaim. The related music video is considered one of the greatest of all time by publications such as NME. Reznor praised Cash's interpretation of the song for its "sincerity and meaning", going so far as to say "that song isn't mine anymore".

I wish pop country would go away altogether. It is by far the worst music I've ever heard and I am embarrassed by white people who go to all these shows.


I agree 100%, and I listen to mostly non-mainstream more traditional country music artists because of this. However, I wouldn't classify Zach Bryan anywhere close to pop-country.

I have a buddy in Albany that does them, think he charges around $125. If interested I can try to link ya'll up.
This will be fun to follow, when you said you were building a metal shop it didn't cross my mind you meant literally stick building & welding it until i got to the photos :lol:

I'm too hooked on BF6 at the moment to fork out the $$ for COD BO7, maybe once the BF6 hype wears off for me.
I would absolutely wear shorts and flip flops if i was headed out on vacation during the summer, i never knew the airport had a dress code or that people actually gave a shite about what other people wear there.

re: Battery Charging Station Ideas

I added something like this to my charging station, you hear stories of people leaving charges with lithium ion batteries plugged in too long and fires starting. I'm sure it's rare but I know how forgetful I am to go back and unplug chargers, so adding a timer gives me a piece of mind that i'm limiting the fire risk in my shop.

If one more person suicides themselves right as I'm arriving to them to revive them, I'm going to murder people.

It's especially common on maps where we lose a ticket if they do so.

That and the fact that enemies will literally walk through 67 teammates unnoticed, meanwhile, I get my cock shot off if I poke my gun out 1mm around a corner.

This game should be renamed "Lack of awareness simulator"


I got on a squad with someone a couple nights ago who was a badass medic. I think he had 74 revives in one round. Seemed like every time I got knocked, he was headed to me and picking me up. There were times I was behind cover and engaging in fire fights and he'd drop a supply bag and a grenade intercept system on me and alert me it was there. Made the game really fun to play with the class being used correctly. Inspired me to try to play the support class that way, and I found out quickly it's not easy to head into a fire fight and get revives without getting killed yourself. It takes some skill to do what he was doing. :lol:

has anyone had lobby/party issues with the game not bringing in everyone into the match or bringing them into a new match from a previous match?


Just had this problem last night, 4 person party and it brought 3 of us into the match and left one behind. We all had to back out and try again.
Display name shows “Mark Makers — The LP”. (“LP” likely meaning "Limited Partner") :lol: That's Livingston Parish ol baw!

We like to go to Tommy's every now and then when we're craving some type of specialty pizza.

My favorites list of Hammond pizza spots:
1. Commodore's
2. Tommy's
3. Nola Mia
4. Milan's


I down voted you for putting Nola Mia at #3. But you also didn't like Pourhouse either and I would have put that at #1 until Nola Mia opened :lol:

we’ve been twice and it’s shockingly good. Asian fusion with local ingredients. The guys who run it also own the depot in independence. No liquor license yet but red white and brew is across the street.

if in the area it’s a solid choice, everything we’ve had has been delicious and satisfying


Wife and I are overdue to try this place, she had been looking forward to it opening for a long time. We hit The Depeaux for wings fairly regularly, they are the best wings in the area IMO, or atleast of the ones i've tried.

Yeah I mean I know people have special circumstances (medical, etc) where they absolutely need power, but for the ones who don't it's a bit ridiculous to go pull a generator out the second the power goes off. Food in the fridge stays good for 4 hours, don't be a puss, we can survive 45 minutes in the dark without AC.
Places cups of liquids upright in the sink to that the liquid sits there and marinates until we wash dishes / load dishwasher. This includes coffee with milk or just plain cups of milk that weren't finished. That way when we get home from work the milk has been sitting there all day and is curdled and disgusting for us to deal with rather than just dump it down the drain and rinse it out which takes 2 seconds.

This also applies for paper/styrofoam to-go cups from restaurants. Even though the cups are designed to be poured out and thrown away, they are perfectly placed down in the sink with the liquid still in them. Like we are going to run them through the dishwasher and reuse them or something.

I've been bitching about it for 15 years and made no progress :lol:
I've only done a small portion of that...Zagreb to Zadar and down the coast to Dubrovnik. I wished we would have had time to include Montenegro also but didn't. It was an incredible trip however.
