I once sold a folding pocket knife to Nikki Sixx (of Mötley Crüe fame) when I worked at the (now long removed) Excalibur Cutlery shop on the Transit floor of the Westlake Mall in Downtown Seattle.
What is YOUR most mundane celebrity encounter?

I don't know how much a flex this is, but I do remember seeing 'Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone' (1983) in 3D as a first run in theaters. Nothing remarkable about the plot or even the 3D. But this post has made me think I should rewatch just to recapture what I've lost.
Have asked this before and always like the responses. What are your biggest “I saw that in the first run cinema” flexes? Couple of mine:
Transformers: The Movie (1986)
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
Office Space (1999)

I was going to give ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms’ a pass since ‘House of the Dragon’ didn’t really pull me in and let’s be honest the end of Game of Thrones was more of a commitment than anything else.

Probably my hottest take in the Pop Music category; Don McLean's "American Pie" and all the covers of it could go unplayed for the rest of Time and I could finally stop getting Will Byers-type "goosies" from how bad it is. The song will always give me the ick.
Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

TFW months of record-keeping and research you've done because you could not find a wiki or other source that already contained the same data is suddenly deemed redundant because you did not use the same wording of header terminology and supporting links were also similarly titled differently.

@casaos.bsky.social Discovered CasaOS by accident this morning and it has been a revelation!
Up to now I've exclusively used Webmin to manage my Home Server via GUI and done all my installs and config via SSH. I like that CasaOS is handling the docker in the bg while providing a pleasent UI.

In following the rabbit hole that is the "Conformity Gate" business online, I tried to google a link to "stanger things netflix". Of course, Google autocorrected for me, but I noticed an illustrated 20-sided die at the bottom of the result.

Just a quick check in. I'm sure many images are hitting the feeds on the flooding happening in the Snoqualmie Valley.
Many roads at River level have taken on water today. This includes many parts of HWY 202 that passes through North Bend and on down the line.
