    Default Going to the Dance with What Brung Ya

    These cable channels are a trip. They get popular, then try re-inventing the wheel. Let's see ... TruTv (which was actually originally Court TV) got big with World's Dumbest And Most Shocking. THEN they got stupid. World's Funiest (not). And those 4 idiots Impractical Jokers. "Hi. I'm 45 and act like I'm in 2nd grade." THERE's a show.

    Investigation Discovery -- made it's name showing actual news stories in a mostly documentary style. Now, their shows are drama queen central. If I want to watch a drama I get soap operas, thanks. Got a big ass box full of movies too. (None of them are dramas, btw I ain't running chick Heaven around here. The cat doesn't care as long as I scratch her neck occasionally.

    But Geez ... there is so much just plain dumb sh*t on that it's no wonder our kids have no thought processing capability. "I'm a fat little mindless blabbermouth and get my own show." Well, I'm a mean-ass old Gunny ... where the f- is MY G-Damned show? We can call it the F-U Show. Can't be any worse than Chopped. You come in and I rip your a$$ apart.

    I hate to say it, but I'm far more entertaining and funnier than a dumbass little fat girl. Just laughing at me screwing up is more entertaining.

    I do not watch much T.V. any more. The quality of the programs has taken a nose dive.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    I don't have a whole bunch else to do. If and when I get my legs rehabbed gonna suck to be everyone else. Especially the TV. That'll be the most abandoned wife in the world.

    I feel like for some reason you more than anyone else would have zero tolerance for it.

    Gunny, you need a Roku. Anyone with an internet connection can access more than a thousand channels. There is even a dedicated Marines channel! You need $100 for a Roku (I recommend a Premier Plus). After that, you can watch TV all day and all night and never have to watch a network show.

    Honestly, I don't like interacting with Marines. Even on deployment. I hung out with the squids. My troops were okay but I never hung out with other Marine SNCOs. Too full of themselves. Yes, I AM a Marine Staff NCO. I'm also just a laid back good ol' boy and I can flip that switch off and on like a trip hammer.

    Every Marine on a message board was Recon and a sniper. I resent that. I can tell if you were in a few lines. So I don't seek out military message boards.

    And I'm not going to pay for 10k channels of which 9.9 are infomercials.

    How the Hell did "going" turn into "betting" in the thread title? I'm about sick and tired of being sick and tired of Windows WTF ever I have now and the laptop. STOP CHANGING MY SHIT. I don't fucking need a computer to think for me. Do WTF I tell YOU, not what your auto-WTF-ever says. Take your auto think and auto spell, shove them up your ass, and use them for fuel to get to the moon. Hopefully on a one-way trip. Fuck this bullshit.

    Gunny, it's not a message board. It's a TV channel.

    https://channelstore.roku.com/detail...7/real-marines

    And Roku is not infomercials. It's a bunch of free channels -- movies, sports, comedy, even Youtube. I bet you would enjoy it.

    You think it's funny. I got automotive jim who thinks there's an app for any and everything. My PC needs to to update its ass every other day, Does LEAVE ME TH E F ALONE not have a meaning? don;t want to be updated, I want you to go away and stop reinventing the wheel. I've been lost since I woke up and this windows 10 shit was on my computer. Not to mention if you just breathe on a laptop it does whatever it wants to,

    What happened to thinking for yourself? Apparently, that isn;t an app,

    Have you seen the ad for some show with a hugely fat woman dancing? Dear lord.

    She obviously hasn't said, "Bye bye stubborn belly fat."
