He played "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" and never looked back.
What is your favorite 'Hidden Gem' Stones song?
So let's exclude legendary classics like "Satisfaction," "Jumpin' Jack Flash," "Gimme Shelter," etc.
My favorite is "Heart of Stone" or "Hand of Fate."
Police have a suspect they're eyeing closely in the I-70 Killer case
Bob Cyphers, who wrote a book on the I-70 Killer and has covered the case for years, gave a big update here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIk7Xi514IA&t=1982s (Beginning around 51:05).
Cyphers says police brought a good suspect in for questioning during the spring. He said "Charge me or I'm out of here," then left.
Cyphers said they're keeping a close look on the suspect and "camping out." He added the cops think "this is their man."
What was your biggest flex on your old toxic workplace?
Mine, to make it short:
-As a freelance worker, told my boss I wasn't being paid enough to continue working 6-7 days a week as he expected (technically illegal to make someone work that much, but anyway).
-He told me he hired less qualified and experienced workers because they're cheaper to pay. And told me if I didn't like it, feel free to get another job, but NOTHING was changing here. And he basically "dared" me to get another job.
-Got a way better job, despite his doubts
-He purposely ignored my messages and refused to talk to me after that new job. Then told me to leave after a month at my new job, so I did.
Now, his company is unraveling and falling apart. The place I'm at? Nothing but amazing people with business BOOMING.
Am I the only one that almost chokes up during the Clocktower scene between Marty and Doc?
The part where Marty thanks Doc, gives him a hug and says "I hope so" about reuniting in 30 years....
And when Doc tears up the letter.

What is your favorite running gag in the trilogy?
Mine is how Biff/Griff and his allies always fall for "WHAT's THAT?!"
Why is Biff such a psychopath who tries to kill Marty?
I get he's a school bully, but he tries to run Marty over his car during the skateboard chase in the first one, and when they fight for the almanac at the end of part two.
Marvin Berry & Starlighters have the best version of "Earth Angel"
All due respect to the Temptations and the Penguins, these guys did it best!
Hilarious story with the Viva Java coffee guy.
My mom and I walked into his shop...nobody was there.
We see a sign that reads, "Coffee machine broken, sorry for inconvenience."
So we turn around to walk away. Then he jumps out of the back room and says "JUST IGNORE THE SIGN! I put that up for customers I don't like!"
My mom and I got our coffee and world-class service. Always happy to support Artie at Viva Java!
What would happen if you handed in your homework in my handwriting?
reddit.comWas excluded from my friends' combined batchelor/batchelorette party?
I've been nothing but a good friend to a couple who are getting married soon. They always asked me to help them last-minute on things, like dogsitting when they had no other option, etc.
I always did it for free. I always helped organize birthday gifts for them from our group (gifts $100 dollars-plus).
Without telling me -- I had to find out through social media -- that they had a big combined batchelor/batchelorette party without inviting me.
_________
Is this grounds to cut them off entirely as friends? I sure feel like it.
