  • LEGO is a trademarked name

    Correct way to talk about Lego bricks is to say Lego bricks

    “Pass me all your Lego!” Is not a correct sentence. “Pass me all your Lego bricks!”

    If there were 15 Lamborghini cars in a parking lot. You’d say “That’s a lot of Lamborghinis”

    Lamborghini doesn’t have to worry about Lamborghini becoming synonymous with “cars”. So Lamborghini doesn’t care.

    If everyone keep saying “Legos” for “Plastic Bricks”. Lego could have a trademark situation on their hands, so they try their hardest to stop people calling the individual plastic blocks Legos.

    It being plural is like a myth.

    I have many Lego. I enjoy playing with my Lego. My Lego makes me happy.



  • Not everyone wants to binge a show from start to finish

    For example, I really enjoyed the episodes of the office that I have watched. It was many years ago and it was only random episodes I caught while airing on TV.

    Went to Netflix to watch at started on episode 1. From what I hear season 1 isn’t the greatest. I got through a couple episodes and then thought to myself, this is going to take so many nights of watching to watch them all in order. Never watched another again.

    Now if I could turn on the television and say S6EP7 was playing I’d probably enjoy watching it. Might even watch the next episode too.

    With classic TV you also get the feeling that you’re watching the show with others.

    Channel 1 is having a Harry Potter bingeathon. I catch it on episode 3 and continue to watch it. I’ve seen them all multiple times so I don’t really care where I start. But it’s nice knowing others are having a HP bingeathon with me on a Saturday afternoon. If I was sitting there with my plex server, I could play any HP. But I’m never going to put it on and if I did it would just be me watching the show.

    Prequels weren’t great, but they were decent. I’d recommend watching them.

    There is a lot to live up to being prequels. People going to judge harshly.

    7-8 were just plain bad, I enjoy Star Wars stuff a bunch. I like the prequels more than most I feel. I don’t even have one single care to watch the 9th.

    I doubt it will change in 10 years.

    Memes, sure, but they will be only how bad they suck. People who meme about the prequels usually enjoyed them at least a little.






  • Hey Arnold 1996

    Dexter’s Lab 1995

    Catdog 1998

    Animaniacs 1993

    These are all classic 90’s kid shows

    If you were 16 in 1990 I doubt you watched much of these shows

    I was born in 1990

    I still remember watching Legends of the Hidden Temple that aired 93 to 95

    I grew up on all the 90’s shows

    I’m turning 34

    I would definitely consider myself a 90’s kid

    Of course if you were born in December of 1999 that’s a lot different

    Like my brother was born in 1996 and he didn’t watch a lot of 90’s shows. Not really a 90’s kid

    But someone that is 30 today was born in 93 and that’s getting close to the cut off.
