I'm binge-watching Frasier.

like medrgs - Does it hold up? I watched an episode a few years back and was horrified at how stupid and slapstick it was. Used to really like it at Uni.detritus
- Chhers was good when we had two channels back in the 80's. Then Frasier...fuck that.********
- how does such an ugly boring guy get laid so much?********
- Have you seen his pad?
$$$detritus - Early Frasier is fantastic. Genuinely great writing.Fax_Benson
- ^^ Maybe it’s because he doesn’t own a gun.MrT
- The late stuff when Niles and Daphne are together makes me want to throw up in my own face.Fax_Benson
- Audrey: So, Dr Crane, I don't see why I should fix the dumb dress when my sister can't even fit into it anymore._niko
- Frasier: Audrey, you borrowed the dress, you tore it. As an old Greek haberdasher once said: "Euripedes, Eumenides._niko
- As Fax said, the early series are just gold. Tip-top writing.
Also, the sketch with Niles trying to press his trousers is beautiful physical comedy.Continuity - applies to all series. Friends best seasons are 2-3-4drgs
- Hmm. Maybe friends is the exception that proves the ruleFax_Benson
- Yes! You made me feel young again ;-)SimonFFM

I just called Subway corporate to make a complaint about a kid working a store last night. Fuckin little shit.
- Fuk that guy.sea_sea
- fuck that stinky shitholehans_glib
- bet he was a cunt!mugwart
- First time I tried Subway was in Seattle a few years ago. Absolutely fucking rancid. You should complain out of principle purely because of the shite they make.face_melter
- made you a sammich without wearing gloves then rang you up and handled bills & coins with his hands he uses to masturbate w?Krassy
- Face-melter some of us in the States have to endure Subway at least once a month. It’s our duty, it’s the cross we bear.HijoDMaite
- The dick refused to give me a regular cup for water since they had ran out of water cups. I sat there eating my dry sandwich with cottonmouthHijoDMaite
- Man. Trump *and* Subway? I'm thinking that Dante missed a few levels.face_melter
- ^ lolETM
- lol @ facefadein11
- @face Which subway? The franchise is shit in general, but a few locations here are notorious for being uniquely shitty. Rotten food and junkies.garbage
- ps Next time you visit, might I recommend the worst McDonald's in America. Dinner and a show at Crackdonalds: https://www.yelp.com…garbage

You can't get excited about social media's... don't even know what snapchat is, and really miss those days before mobile phones and internet - When you used to be able to dial all your mates home phone numbers by memory.
Instead of mindlessly checking an app, you actually engaged some brain cells, dialled a number and spoke to your mate - real human in real time, no siri AI - and asked them the classic question "wha-tya doing?" instead of checking twitter/facebook.

- I too remember when they took our phone numbers and prevented the call function from working. Lol smhimbecile

Trying to get down on the floor for a few situps before bed, only to have your arms give out totally on the way down and collapsing in a thudding heap, all because you tried to keep up with someone 12 years younger at the gym while arm training. Best part was wife frantically running upstairs after the thump assuming I had a heart attack or something, only to be relentless mocked when she finds out the truth.

wtf is this shite
Children struggle to hold pencils due to too much tech, doctors say
“To be able to grip a pencil and move it, you need strong control of the fine muscles in your fingers,. Children need lots of opportunity to develop those skills.”
- That's sad. Loads of development comes from writing and drawing too.PhanLo

You're looking towards the future and you're filled with a sense of doom. You're 40th b'day is coming up, but all your mates left town/country or are busy with wife/kids. Your girlfriend isn't satisfied with your earning ability and continues to run you down, saying your future plans are not good enough for her, and making you feel like you could never support her and a baby. You're still renting and landlord doesn't want to renew your contract. Your parents are getting serious miserable life altering illnesses, but you live too far away to properly care or be there for them. Your career is stagnant. Every year, younger, cheaper, and often more talented designers are entering the employment market, and you feel old and exhausted and like you're swimming constantly against the tide. It feels like yesterday that you were in your late 20's, full of ambition and courage and dedication, the future looked bright. Never could you imagine this situation...
Chin up.

- such is life... another coffee shoot and go aheadOBBTKN
- haha, great.
*Adds Shapesalad to FriendsList™detritus - Shit dude, yeah I get this, similar boat. Amen. Modern day middle class right here. Hang in there. Try and find time to make you .. well you.mugwart
- "your girlfriend isn't satisfied with your earning ability" GET A NEW GIRLFRIEND, FUCK THATlowimpakt
- ^ agreed that. Sounds like you have a lot of negativity in your life. Cut anything rotten out.mugwart
- yup, ameninteliboy

*orders beer for shapesaladsted - Thanks Qbners, I appreciate the comments. I don't tend to let things get me down, but occasionally you need to take a step down to step up. Let's go! :-)shapesalad
- Yep, you got enough courage to admit and write this down, don't event think for a second that there is no life for you after 40 :Dsted
- And my gf... I'm cutting her slack as she's been through some horrific experiences over last few years.shapesalad
- However I feel she's looking for a man to 'fix' her life. Keep her safe, secure, provided for. That's ok, but it ain't easy for the modern man.shapesalad
- I thought by the 2000's we'd all be working 3 days a week and having robot assistants. We got Siri and we're doing minimal 8 hour days.shapesalad
- My old man used to do 9 to 5 back in the 60's/70's/80's. Never worked over time or weekend. What happened to that? Progress....shapesalad
- I wouldn't say that this is the result of progress. There are lots of areas on this planet where people still work 8 hours, without overtime or weekends.sted
- it's just cities got more dense and as a result of that you have to be a slave to survive. lose that girl asap, you already got toxic thoughts...sted

- Dump the girl, leave the city********
- I wish I worked only 8 hours!
Would love to move from city but not sure if possiblemugwart - @shape - we have become slaves to the machine! I'm trying to plan a wayout of it but it seems (UK at least) impossiblemugwart
- @mugwart - EU is still open for brits. Get there asap. Lisbon is good.shapesalad
- I want to, but single father and GF in londonmugwart
- really curious about the nordicsmugwart
- Lisbon = same time zone as london = perfect sunny remote work location. I went myself for 6 months break.shapesalad
- I escaped London for Madrid. Never looked back :)Chimp
- my work your unable to work remote from, security is way to tight ... ;-(mugwart
- Question: Is it better to base your life around you job, or choice a location and base work around that?shapesalad
- your right BUT I split my son between myself and ex wife. Its not so easy.mugwart

- I'm curious why an ultra-pessimistic post like this gets upvoted so much. Do so many people here relate to it or they just enjoy being depressed?yuekit
- "great"..."amen... lolyuekit
- @yuekit right? my first reaction as well. Surpirsed to see the reponses in the notes too.chukkaphob
- What a dark depressing post! C'mon.chukkaphob

- Shapesalad, email me.notype
- yuekit - because it was a good read, earnest and possibly a little tongue in cheek. You're a smart guy - is everything you consume candyfloss?detritus
- its key to acknowledge areas of concern in your like and fix it. Cant all be sweet dreams.mugwart
- aside from the concern aboout parents getting old and sick, the rest of it is all cry-baby entitlement nonsense...chukkaphob
- .... lace up your shoes and crush today and everyday onward! Make better life choices and appreciate what you got! You're healthy and working an exciting field!chukkaphob
- stop feeling sorry for yourself! change what;'s bothering you and making you unhappy -- leave the gf, move, change jobs (and even career!) DO IT!chukkaphob
- Don't you have some basic porn to masturbate to?detritus
- chukkaphob, your advice is usually how I feel about things, hence the 'chin up'. I know I'm pretty lucky overall and no need for a pity party.shapesalad
- @shapesalad my intention is to support you and motivate you (and not to judge u or put u down!) .. and I'm sure you figured as much :Dchukkaphob
- @shapesalad also, I appreciate your courage to open up the way you did and bare it all. That's great!chukkaphob
- hearing other ppls story is what get's me going. read, read, read, read, read, and listen to another's story on hearbreak and love buddy.notype
