    And there I thought there'd be nothing that could make a Monday worse than it already is. Monday plus surgery is double unpleasant. You'll have to spend Sunday night in hospital and won't get any supper, I presume?

    People who think "dogmatic" is about automatons that look like dogs.

    No. I'm sure I won't be able to eat Sunday night, but it is a same-day surgery. I'll be in and out the same day, but I don't have a time scheduled yet so I have no idea when I'll need to stop eating.

    TV has a blackout because of the snow. I went out to remove the snow from the rooftop dish. Now it works again. But I missed several minutes of my favorite show......:ack:

    My damn left ankle. It keeps on hurting every so often when I walk (have had this issue since I was a kid, it sucks :().

    And I hate socks that keep on sliding down. Dang it. :lol:

    Nodding off, just for a little while, and jolting awake, suddenly, frantic, confused. Where are the kids? Shit!

    Oh yeah, they’re at school! Haven’t had that panic since they were babies.

    Dammit. Only had my Switch for around 3 months so far and the left joy con's stick is creaking when I move up or forward. Great just great. Going to see if I can exchange them for another pair from the store I got it from. The system itself works ok. So not happy right now. :scream:

    Technology isn’t being nice to you at the moment.

    Yep. It's called cheaply made. Not thrilled, given that I've only moderately used them. And only had the system for 3 months. Hoping the store let's me exchange them and not say that you have to exchange the system as a whole. Wouldn't make any sense given that the system itself isn't the problem. Just the controller.

    I have no idea what you're talking about. And I find that a bit frustrating.

    It's a handheld Nintendo gaming system.

    Sorry I didn't make that clearer. Scribble pretty much said what it is.

    Most likely sending the joycon in for repair and if that doesn't work, I plan on exchanging the system at the store I got it from.

    Joycon sounds like a convention for unnaturally happy people.

    I wish! :guffaw:

    Well crap. My right joycon is doing the same thing now (sounding tinny). Guess I'm just better off exchanging systems.

    Thanks. I hope so too. Tried cleaning them out to see if it helps. Might have to have a second person help to hold the flap up under the sticks so I can try to clean them a bit better. It doesn't hurt to try before taking it further.

    The existence of Riley J Dennis. Up until about six months back I tried to watch this morons' videos until the obnoxious idiocy it constantly spews started pushing my blood pressure too far over the red line. Last night I tried again just to see if it had mellowed in it's millitancy. It hadn't.

    I swear, the stupid coming off this imbecile is so thick you could walk on it.
