I can't remember what year it was, but the first year I had my Wii I had some issue with my computer, so I used my Wii browser to file my taxes.

It was excruciating (imagine using a Wii remote to enter all that information) but I can say that I did it, and it makes me laugh.
yall want anything from dominos on the nintendo wii (apparently this actually works too)

More about the experience than anything; for a brief time I was actually in decent shape, working out regularly and I spent my cheat days at the Godfather's Pizza buffet with my best friend just absolutely destroying their selection. Not the greatest food ever but good memories.

please tell me about your favorite lost restaurant (closed for at least 5 years, like I really want you to go back into the vault), why you loved it and what you ate there

I still think this movie is okay, but boy did it not live up to the hype of this trailer.

Post a comic cover you love

Even though I've read tons of comics in my life, this one has always had such an incredibly memorable and striking image that it remains stamped on my brain as one of the best comic covers I've ever seen.

Oof.

(It is a great flick, though. And yes, I already know the trivia you're itching to share about it.)
Decided to take a mental break tonight and watch some movie I’ve never seen before and didn’t know much about.

I chose: THE MIST (2007).

Hahahaha. Ha. Oh god.

Because I've been in a Star Trek mood lately, here's an older sketch I still enjoy.

Itty bitty drawing of Shenandoah. She always looks like she's ready to mix it up.

I still remember being at an art supply store when they had to bring one of those out because the lines were down and my younger sister saying "What is THAT?" in a very confused tone. I of course withered into dust immediately.
If you paid with a credit card they would put carbon paper slips over it and run a small press contraption over it to make an impression. Or they'd have to write the number down.
