RE: What's everyone up to right now?
December 29, 2025 at 8:59 pm
A week ago, I was watching a music video of the theme of the K-Drama that I'm watching. The music video spoiled an event that happens late in the story. In the description of the video, it noted that it contained spoilers, but still, why would you do that? Anyway, it took 3-4 episodes of watching but I caught up to the point that the thoughtless Youtuber had spoiled. So, all is right with the world now. If only the other Youtuber who spoiled an important part of Final Fantasy VI could undo that spoiling. People are so thoughtless.

It states there are spoilers. Pushing play after reading that means you are aware of, and okay with, things being spoiled.
Had they not stated there were spoilers then I can understand being miffed out spoilers showing up secretly.

It said so in a description which was separate from the video and its title. I didn't push play after reading it because like most people I didn't read the additional information in the extra info. The info should be in the title.

And the people who spoiled plot points in the two games mentioned didn't give any warning of spoilers.

This says quite clearly that it includes spoilers. But you do you. I expect spoilers with anything done after the fact.

I use a cane, and the grippy surface is worn smooth from years of use (at my hand). Most canes are just inverted "U" shapes at the top and most are also too small a diameter for my big mitts. Looked online, but didn't see much else. Went by a local place that sells all kinds of medical equipment. The guy seemed a bit put off when I asked for options beyond the standards in the front of the store, but grudgingly went into the back and found one that I can use. I need to bend the tubing so that my wrist isn't bent while using it. I'll have my one son who is strong enough put the necessary bend into it. I would do it, but if I could, I wouldn't need the cane. Even though it's the knee that's giving me trouble.

Yesterday the clerk at the store I went into mentioned his knees were bothering him. Told him that's about the only thing on me that hasn't gone to shit.
Husband, son, and older daughter all have knee issues and I don't want any part of that mess.

Watching football. My sister did a roundoff back handspring into the wall when she was in college. Messed her knees up for life. She still coaches gymnastics and is very active. Remarkable given her knees.

Husband, son, and older daughter all have knee issues and I don't want any part of that mess. The ONLY parts that don't actually give me trouble are my hands, believe it or not. Well, except for having carpal tunnel release surgery on both wrists. After working as a mechanic and doing construction on top of that for many years, my hands don't have any arthritis but a bit by my left thumb, which doesn't bother me...yet. I'm selling off my engine hoist and engine stand, because even if I did have knee surgery, I'd be limited. No kneeling or squatting. My econobox has some peeling and faded paint, but I'm going to have to pay to have the repairs, as I can't stand/lean/squat enough to do it.

Yesterday at 4:40 am
Got back to the house around noon. The cats were remarkably disinterested to see us.
