    Rock Band Guitar Hero was possibly the stupidest video game in the history of video games. People actually went gaga over that shit, not that many years ago! Point being, we are now several years deep into this current shit era.

    I LOVE all the random crap as the filthy snow piles melt. It keeps me entertained on my walk to and from work. Bleach bottle, doughnut, sock, pink fork, egg carton, broom handle, the list goes on. I work in a high end retail shop, a few years ago after the piles were melting an Italian tourist came in and asked, what has happen here? I aske what do you mean. He said outside. I said oh we had a blizzard lady week. What it snows trash here?! Made me love it even more. I will admit if I am tossing out somthing random I'll wait til it's snowing and toss it on the side of the road
