I suggest you go bigger! Always go as big as you can stand.
It's a very short distance in my living room area from the couch to the TV so I'm definitely not trying to overhwelm everything. I am probably looking at (at least) 42" - 50-something" for my new one. I know a lot of this kind of thing has to do with how close you will be to the TV and my current setup is pretty close so definitely not going for a major upgrade in terms of size. The main thing I want is a decent TV with the quality (4K), HDMI slots (4 would be great but may settle for 3), and if possible good refresh rate (have read that 60 Hz isn't great for long term and to try for higher).
We bought this one back in early Sept and have been very happy with it:
Ours is mounted above our fireplace so we wanted to go as big as we could without it being wider than the actual fireplace... But the specs of the same model in a smaller size may be comparable. There are certainly better and worse options out there, but this is where we went after comparing many tvs/prices and checking several out in person before purchasing.

I have the next 8 days off work, and Ms. Snowman is at a conference so I get to be full-time dad, hanging with a 7 month old all day and going to the park with the 5 year old in the afternoons.
I played Xbox for the first time in 6 months today, and took an afternoon nap.
Life is good in my neck of the woods.
It's not official until you change your handle. Or until you get a fancy mod description under your handle (i.e.: Dr. Goblin Faced Love God). Get on it, Doctor! Also, congrats.

Louis C.K.'s new film premiere pulled in advance of rumored New York Times story reporting on him sexually harassing women. He also cancelled his appearance on Colbert tonight.

Story is out. 5 women went on record with accusations. I didn't want to believe the rumors because up until now there were no public accusations or claims from people besides a blind item from Gawker.
I was wrong. And Louie deserves whatever backlash he has coming. There's no excuse for what he did or asked women to do.

Not sure I'll be able to rewatch his fx show.
He hasnt commented yet
more of a bummer than spacey.
Yea, with Spacey I had heard some things but was under the impression it was that he preferred young (but legal) guys and was in the closet. It turned out to be much worse.
With this....it's hard to say it's surprising given how much he's talked about that kind of stuff in his act and show but it still felt like it wasn't true. But now that it's out there it's just disappointing for so many reasons. I'm glad the scumbags are being revealed and called out.

at least they were of age and not raped I guess...
I guess I'm never going to get around to Horace & Pete.

I never really watched CK. Spacey on the other-hand was a favorite of mine. I think all of the accusations are highly disappointing, but I love that it is all coming to light and creating dialog. Maybe that is something good that the Cheeto did? Allow us to become comfortable enough to talk about sexual harassment/abuse and confront our abusers, and to actual bring about change.
Just got an email inviting my kid to go to China for a Delegation on Engineering & Technology. It includes college credits. Of course it is stupid expensive but there are scholarships available and he would get a discount because he is the National Leadership Youth Counsel alumni. There are not many times that I wish I had more money to help him, today I have that wish. I am so crazy proud of him.
There is a new season The Great British Baking Show on Netflix.
Also, am I crazy? It started as The Great British Bake Off right?
I saw that is said there were new episodes earlier today but I didn't see a new season up :/
They had to change the name in America because of some copyright thing I think.
Season 4 is the new one.
I saw people posting on reddit the other day that they were having trouble listening to the new Vulfpeck album on Spotify because of time zones. I wonder if it’s a similar issue with Netflix and new content.
One of my Voodoo festival friends is in town. I didn't even realize that he was coming into town. I found out because while I was driving to work, he walked right in front of my car. He told me he got in town 15 minutes before I saw him. How crazy is that?
And for every drop of good news there is bad news. Someone stole Kyle's bike this morning. It was locked up and everything. I am mad and had to talk to my on the verge of tears son because he was so mad/upset about his bike. People suck.
I don't like to fuck with nature. However, I was kind of pissed off today and kicked that bitch in the mouth. I was at U.N.O. waiting for a tow truck to come get my daughter's car. I'm outside and I see this big bird chasing a smaller one. Usually it's the other way around as mockingbirds will not tolerate crows, hawks or any other large bird in their territory. All of a sudden about 15 feet in front of me some feathers are flying. I said no fucking way. Jumped up and ran over there and the hawk took off. There was an injured dove missing tail feathers and sort of shaken up. It took about 15 minutes to catch him as we chased him under a car and close to the building and dropped a small towel over him and picked him up and petted him and put him at ease. I went back to my truck and the hawk, who had been watching all along flew over by the building and landed on a table trying to find its prey. Meanwhile, I took off in the truck and drove to the other side of campus and found a nice thicket where I let him go. Dove could fly but was only able to get so many feet of the ground due to lack of lift. He might die or get eaten anyway, but fuck that motherfucking hawk. I know you have to eat. And I know nature can be cruel as fuck. But not today. Fuck you hawk. I hope you and your family went hungry you fucking bitch.

They were using screen caps from a different season for four so I thought I had already seen it, woooo new season!!
thejeremy recently started doing stocks ($50 was his starting point). Helios and Matheson Analytics is doing super good. He is over $300 as of today. EDIT: He is using the Robin Hood app.
You know, at some point I realized that Drunk In Love was a hit and always assumed it was one of those ubiquitous songs that I'd heard a million times but just didn't know it when I heard it. Nope. I'm listening to it now and I'm 90% sure I've never heard this song before.

I get that it's usually a safe assumption that the average person likely isn't familiar with Boards of Canada. I get that even though I brought them up in our conversation and therefore obviously know who they are, you need to somehow still be superior. I get that you just opened a studio-apartment-sized record store, are drinking cider from a solo cup, had me deliver a side of fries to you 200 feet from where you bought them and are wearing a scarf indoors so your perceptions are inarguably and inflexibly more accurate than mine. I get it. But the album we're talking about came out almost 20 years ago and is lauded as one of the most important records in the electronic and IDM canon. Get fucked.
