Originally, it had three pieces in one package, flavored chocolate, strawberry and vanilla;[1] hence the name, which was derived from the novel The Three

It's terrible, I made it through a quarter. They might as well make it touch football. Also I feel like they were using the B team as the sound crew. I could hear rain drops hitting the mic and there were loud kids talking in the background.Radbird wrote:The Pro Bowl is the lamest sporting event ever.

Re: Random musings
I'd never seen an episode of Frasier until late last year. I figured I'd give it a shot because if I liked it, it was 11 seasons of dumb/easy [expletive] to watch before bed.thrill wrote:Frasier is constantly in my Netflix queue for similar reasons.lukethedrifter wrote:Belongs on Secrets! but since we’re talking old TV: I blame it on some personal stuff that had me kind of down .... was surfing for some TV to see if anything stuck last week and ended up watching the entire first season of Will and Grace.
I got through about 4 seasons and had to stop. It's ok, far from bad. But definitely dated.

Re: Random musings
I watched it when I was a kid. It's like TV Velveeta shells and cheese for me. Every now and then I just need that childhood sense memory to self medicate. Cheers is definitely the way to go for netflix nostalgia if you don't have a connection to the Frasier spinoff.JL21 wrote:I'd never seen an episode of Frasier until late last year.

Re: Random musings
I really need to stop buying random stuff for people's kids. Saturday I was at the bar and two other regulars were talking, one guy and one girl. They were talking about her daughter who is 8. Apparently the time the guy met her daughter, it was right before her birthday so he asked her what she wanted for her birthday. The daughter said she wanted a pogo stick. Nobody got her a pogo stick. Until now. I heard the story so while they were talking I was on my phone ordering one from Walmart. She said she didn't want her daughter to have one but if she was serious, she wouldn't have been stupid enough to give me her address when I asked for it to complete the order. It will arrive next week.

Oh yes. I have done the Cheers thing.thrill wrote: I watched it when I was a kid. It's like TV Velveeta shells and cheese for me.

My every night right-before-bed ritual is always something in that realm, although it's more from adulthood than when I was a kid. IASIP, Futurama, Bob's Burgers lately... just something stupid and easy where I don't have to use my brain right before bedtime. That got stale for awhile so I was doing stuff like Newhart, Frasier, Mary Tyler Moore...

Re: Random musings
seems like on a recent conan clip that was posted, his super awesome assistant sona mentioned she was watching "cheers" from the beginning and i think was to season 4. it struck me as...interesting, i guess.
