i play the powerball, every now and then. i'll never hit all the numbers, but it makes for a nice daydream.

I play two different lotto's weekly. Just need to have money on the gambling account and it's all automatic from there on. Besides the national lottery there is a Scandinavian lottery called Viking Lotto. At one time I noticed you could use these numbers in the game, so I did. I've won about 50-60€ with them so far. It would be funny to see how many use them, if the numbers get all picked

tv is stupid in general but lost fans were some easily impressed people who thought it was genius material.

lost was proof that you can half-assedly name a few characters after philosophers, with nothing in common but that namesake alone, and people will spend hundreds of hours on internet forums talking about the show as if it is imbued with some deep philosophic consonance and meaning. little did they know they were (literally) making that shit up as they went along, with no clue whatsoever. all the 'deep' parts were in fact millimetre-thin adornments. what a joke.

the new black sabbath album uses the same schtick. make a lazy allusion to some philosophy/something 'weighty', but then don't treat the subject matter at all. it's 'deepness by association', only the association is about as tenuous as a 14 year old's upper-lip bumfluff passing as a moustache (and equally as adolescent).

the 'and it was just a dream!' or 'they were all dead, this is a figment of imagination' type resolution is the sort of plot ending that made russian narrative formalists want to drink cyanide en masse. it's the sort of ending that even a child's tale being marked in kindergarten would receive a red-circling for. it is the lamest exit strategy possible. the 'it was all a dream!' type resolution basically has all of the rigid logic of an inexplicable deux ex machina. only at least the latter has the possibility of being inventive, or clever. the lost ending was so inane it was nearing the level of non sequitur.

i actually feel like i'm getting dumber myself, analysing lost with latinate terms.

it was called 'lost' cause that's what happened to a whole load of your time if you watched it

I saw maybe half an episode of lost.

What was the big deal about it

Yeah, but GOT has tits.

GoT is a good show. A song of fire and ice aren't great books though. Interestingly the GoT author was born in ny hometown and said his experienced here inspired much of the books

the books are a good enough read tyvm

I'll have you know, zique, that your face is a MORAN

Just took a nap for two hours so I could maybe be ready for this night shift in an hour.  Today's my first day on it.

Day shift was really cool, hopefully night shift is too.

A check in's last name was Finray.
I smirked briefly.

Is Finray an actual name? I thought it was just a play on Finlay.

I need to get a summer job. State's unemployment is 9% so I can't be picky. I will be a great barista.
