    Happy Belated 20th TribalWar

    That's right. This festering, depraved corner of the internet just turned 20 years old and no one noticed. This makes you feel old. You are old. Discuss.

    Predict whether Trump will be impeached and convicted in the Senate

    With public hearings beginning next week in the impeachment trial, this seems like a good time to hear TW's opinions on the matter. Do you think there's a non-zero chance that the Republican-led Senate will turn against Trump? Let's hear it.

    Loading a canoe for camping: Fiberglass versus aluminum

    I need to row about 3 miles to our campsite, heavily weighed down, potentially in choppy conditions if the weather doesn't cooperate. I've done this trek twice in an aluminum canoe that I rented from the local marina. This year I want to bring my family's fiberglass Old Town canoe. My intuition...

    How much $ do you spend per month on subscription-based web services?

    I have managed to do everything I want to do online for free (more or less) for as long as I've used the internet. There are certain things I should probably pay for, but I don't. I've occasionally gotten suckered into paying for something that I didn't intend to pay for, but those instances are...

    Storylining resources

    So in the spirit of quarter-life crisis tradition, I'm working on my screenplay. I have never written anything and I'm doomed to fail, but I'm at least smart enough to know there are shoulders for me to stand on. I have my subject, characters, plot outline, and a lifetime of film study under my...

    Music Appreciation

    I find music to be the most emotional of all artforms, and my passion for it has continuously grown with each passing year despite phases in my life where I didn't believe it's as meaningful as it truly is. I realize many others don't share this passion, so I'm interested in learning more about...

    definition of "close": -you're not related -you can say almost anything to her without fear of judgment -you can go years without seeing her and it will be just like old times -(if applicable) your current gf/wife would have no problem with you hanging out with her, even if it were just the...

    Phones suck right now eh?

    So my Nexus 6P bricked on me, bootlooping issue. It's fixable but it still needs to be replaced, which sucks because this phone kicks ass and I had no intentions of replacing it anytime soon. Sadly, they don't make them anymore. After brushing up on what's available right now, I came to the...

    T1 thread

    does anyone else still attribute random acronyms to old T1 tribes and players? i'm amazed that after at least 10 years away from the game, whenever i see certain combinations of letters like VGS, VGZ, IE, KOV, and even stupid shit like BYB (on a license plate for example), my mind instantly...

    46A7eYkCRI8 Saw this via a local friend's facebook, may go viral soon (174 views at present). Reminds me of those Toyota commercials, but the truck doesn't fare so well here. Dude looks like he's in the middle of a churning, boiling pot.

    [advice] Looking for a laptop

    I'm a bit out of loop when it comes to the labtop market, but it seems like I should be able to pick up an i5 or maybe even an i7 with 8GB of memory and at least a 128GB SSD with a 15.6"+ screen in the $500 range if I search around. Should I shoot higher than those specs in that price range...

    who else feels uncomfortable in the Apple store?

    Unfortunately my lady is an apple fanatic, and I find myself in there from time to time. Whether it's the frumpy bald egg-headed douche with a chinstrap beard, the mindless female aged 12-40 who only uses an iphone because all her friends use them, the gangly nerd with his t-shirt tucked into...
