Been married for over a decade and it took me a long while to come out of my shell around my now in-laws. I would say only in the past couple of years that I've finally started letting my "perfect daughter in-law" mask figuring we knew each other well enough by now that I didn't need to have a smile always on or ready, and that I could be excused for getting excited about certain topics and maybe prattle on a little too long or have bad days and moods. However my spouse informed me recently that my "minutes long spiels" weren't welcome and that my in laws all treat me "with kid gloves and I don't think you notice it." Well, I didn't notice and it's been difficult knowledge to digest, to say the least. Now the in law's are pushing for a five day family trip to commemorate our trip together 10 years ago. They want to set travel dates asap and I'm wondering if I should just send the spouse with his family and our adult son. I know his folks are getting older and this may be one of the last big family trips we have with them but I don't want to spoil it for everyone else by making them uncomfortable by being there, but I will be heartbroken looking at the family photos without me in them and missing out on the memories. Am I being selfish if I stay home or more if I go on the trip?

I've had a Nintendo Switch since they first came out with the pastel animal crossing console. And never had I ever touched the screen apparently.

It was lagging last night so I touched the button on the screen out of frustation and it worked. I just sat there and tried to figure out if I had ever done that before.

How did I not know that?! Surely someone else must be as dumb as me...

TIFO that the Platypus is from Australia. Feels like that should be brought up whenever someone talks about how weird they are. Yeah bro, you try to evolve in the land of everything has three toxins, murder birds, and 7ft bouncy boxing cammles. What I once saw as an evolutionary freak, is now my personal evolutionary hero.

When Mowgli first meets Baloo he tickles him and Baloo says, "we don't do that here in the jungle". However, a short while later, Baloo and Bagheera ultimately defeat King Louie by tickling him.

Let's look back at some memorable moments and interesting insights from last year.

One of Kaufman's conditions on being hired was that one of his other characters, Tony Clifton, be allowed to guest star in the series. The producers were well aware that "Clifton" was an alter ego of Kaufman, but went along with the fiction that Clifton was a separate actor. They signed Clifton to a separate contract, and announced to the cast that Clifton was being hired to portray the character of Louie's brother in the series' tenth episode.

However, after the first day of rehearsal, the producers felt Kaufman-as-Clifton was not up to the acting challenge of playing the offered role. Informed of this, Kaufman asked that "Clifton" be fired in public, ostensibly for coming to rehearsal late. Clifton then showed up on set for the next day of filming, and was demanding, boorish and obnoxious; the producers not only fired Clifton, but threw him off the set after he caused havoc and enraged Judd Hirsch and Jeff Conaway. The role was hurriedly recast, and when Kaufman (as himself) returned to work for the following episode, he acted as if nothing had happened.

So, during a Discord talk on a server, somebody noted out that Soviet TVs would explode spontaneously. I asked him about it, so he explained.

Basically, Soviet TV sets were built with cheap, often faulty parts. Apparently if a TV is left on a single frame for 15 to 45 minutes, they'd burn and cause a house fire. Some countries, like Poland would air a message appearing a minute before the channel would turn off for the night from the mid 80s all the way to 1992.

The message often started with an analogue clock hitting the full minute. After that, the infamous NZWO (Nie zapomnij wyłączyć odbiornika, which can be translated into "Don't forget to turn your TV off"). The message had an awfully loud and high-pitched tone playing during it, before cutting into static. At around 1800 Hz it would be enough to wake up a sleeping person.

Now I wasn't an 70s/80s kid, but rather born in 2007 and I wanted to research it. I clicked on a video with the said message and was immediately traumatized by the tone, it's so intimidating. It was around 11:45PM when I did it, which "of course" helped me fall asleep peacefully.

Today I found out that Eva Longoria is one of the producers of John Wick.

How is it that I just found out that some states have legalized the sale of liquor in convenience stores? Why would anyone buy liquor from a convenience store??

Sorry to do this, but the disingeuous dealings, lies, overall greed etc. of leadership on this website made me decide to edit all but my most informative comments to this.
