Remember KFC’s last crazy innovation, the double down? That was a flop and a half.

But this… THIS???

This entrée spreaks to me on a spiritual level.

#945

Damned good stuff.

This show is so good this season.

#946

@LabouredSubterfuge Schweinsteiger, baby.

#947

And Depay.

About to get Schneiderlin too.

What a transfer window this will be.

#948

Really great signing for you guys.

The RTM for Windows 10 just came out. Build 10240. I’m updating to it now.

#950

I’m waiting for the official release at the end of the month. Hopefully my computer will update automatically.

I ordered a venti (large) caramel frappuccino from Starbucks today, and I said Vita instead of venti. No idea why that came out of my mouth. lol

The perfect response to that would have been “but vita means life”.

#952

“But the Vita is dead”

Vacation time is kinda flying by, I started about a week ago and can’t help but also use the time to study Spanish and German. I’ve gotten used to it, it seems :astonished:

We’re trying out Apple Music and it is a good alternative to Spotify if you prefer Apple devices. Both services seem to miss the same music.

#955

I like Apple Music more than Spotify. Everything is integrated. I really like adding music/albums to my library and finding it ready to go in iTunes later.

And Beats 1 is pretty boss.

#956

And regarding Beats 1, or any music stream at that, I like that I can add the music to my library/playlist whenever the song is playing. Cool shit.

This thread. Smh. “I would not let her…” Some people even said they would forbid their SOs in going to a wedding with a male friend. Lots of insecure and possessive men in that thread, christ.

#958

If I did have an issue with it, which I wouldn’t, she and I would discuss it. I would tell her the reasons that made me uncomfortable about it and ultimately leave the choice for her to make.

I do not “let” my fiancee do anything. She is her own person.

#959

I wonder what happens to people when they grow up that this shit isn’t just common sense.

One of my gf’s friends can hardly ever get time without her bf. Dude is like a watchdog, needs to know where she is at all times, she has to check in and shit. It’s pretty fucked, imo.

#960

I don’t think it’s strange at all to be frank, though i also think that it is very wrong to desire actual control over someone.

#961

To be honest, I might have problems with it. I mean, he is saying they are going together and the GF is being referred to as a date. Being asked and going alone together does make it feel awkward. If it was a group of friends, I wouldn’t mind but it’s the being alone and being in a romantic setting that is iffy. Wouldn’t you guys feel weird about that?

#962

Not if it gets her out of the house for an evening.

#963

Not at all. You can call it a date or whatever you want, but that doesn’t mean they’re going to sleep together at the end of the night. It’s an accompaniment for an event. The way I see it, if you’ve got a problem with that kind of scenario then that’s really a matter of trust. Either you don’t trust your SO to not betray you, or you don’t trust their friend not to like, rape them… Which if that’s the case then that’s a valid point.

If neither of those things happen then your SO has a very nice evening with their friend, and life goes on. If they break your trust, then they weren’t worth keeping anyway. If you don’t trust them then you’re the one not worth keeping.

Your significant other is not your property, your child, not your follower. They’re your partner, and they are their own person first and foremost. No one should have the right or feel the need to be so controlling in a situation like this. And it irks me when so many people feel the opposite.

This bears no consideration to you personally, RpgN. Just the notion of relationship control as a whole. Just my feels
