I’ll go first. Mine is that I can’t stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It’s like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds
Nowadays I find a lot of games feel like too much work and/or anxiety when I just want to relax for like, 30 minutes to an hour after a long day. On the other hand, the games specifically designed to help you unwind just feel boring imo....
Money! Unfortunately I’m broke, but I do have a sizeable collection of foreign coins and bills. I don’t remember how it started but at some point in my life people just started bringing me their foreign currency. “Hey, I heard you like collecting coins, I got this from Algeria” “Hey, I heard you collect money, I got this from Taiwan”
I think my favorites right now are the currency no longer printed or of nations that no longer exist. USSR, Nazi Germany, Mao Zedong bills, some Eire from Ireland. I also have several misprints that are very cool, a silver penny misprint, and I have a ridiculously old bronze coin from a Chinese dynasty.
Odd shaped coins are great. I have some coins from the Bahamas with scalloped edges. Those are neat! My favorite odd-shaped one is a misprint. It’s a blank round of copper except for a small sliver on the edge that is pinched into a penny.
Unfortunately I can’t narrow down my favorite coin as there are too many to choose from.
I think I’d like to have a chat with Teddy Roosevelt. Nothing political in nature, I just want to hear his stories and what it was like seeing Yosemite way back when.
If not Roosevelt, then maybe an ancient Greek philosopher. Socrates or Plato maybe.
