    Man don't come here in the summer. It was 117 the other day... I mean what in the actual fuck.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    My thoughts... Pros: Han Solo and death scene Last 30ish minutes Actor who played Rey The new darth lord Backstory on why Luke has gone hermit/the search for him. Cons: Way too much comic relief in first hour for my taste. Felt more like an action/comedy early on. Using dialogue for...

    Weight Loss Thread

    You're obviously a troll, but I'll bite anyways. What, exactly, is dumb about exercising healthy eating habits and giving your body the nutrients/energy it needs, when it needs? Instead of just gluttonous overindulgence. No one said not to enjoy the things you eat. Well all enjoy eating. If...

    Weight Loss Thread

    Change the view that you eat because you're hungry. Change it to... food is fuel. Are you going to exercise today? Yes? Add some protein/dairy and carbs. View candy, soda, junk food as polluting your fuel for that day. Like you just changed your 91 shell oil for some Canadian unrefined oil...

    The Power of Habits - How to Build / Start / Maintain New Ones

    I'm gonna hate on the people hating on this advice, because it's pretty solid tbh, and something I only learned in my late twenties. You can mold yourself into whatever person you want to be. The bullshit you tell yourself like, I'm not a social person, I'm not a good salesman/woman, I could...

    NFL 2014 Off-Season Thread

    Oh, and to stay on topic. A big part of my ancestry is Lakota Indian on my father's side. Redskin never bothered me or anyone on that side of the family that I was ever aware of. There are lots of Native American HS sports teams that even call themselves so and so "redskins". Are they just...

    I would root for the Chinamen I think. F political correctness and sensitivity. People got too much time on their hands getting butthurt about everything.

    Movies That Would Be Made, If You Could Make It Happen

    If we're going to go in that direction I'd rather see The Gods Themselves adapted to the screen

    2013 NFL Season

    Hey at least you aren't a Bills fan! Grew up in Dallas too. Had to pick another team because older brother grabbed Dallas every tecmo bowl game.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    If you're looking to raid I'd stay away from SPriest. Although disc is really good. Pal tank is strong/holy pal is weak. DK/Rogue/Sham are all good/decent atm, with resto shams being 1-2 top healers.

    Only God Forgives- Ryan Gosling

    Guess it's cool to hate on the movie because it doesn't adhere to the standard narrative forms. Refn is a master of his craft, of that it would be hard to argue, even if you don't like the style of the story he told. Some people need more defined characters and motives, and one true hero or...

    EQ Never

    Long time lurker since 2001, but I kind of get the feel that the devs for EQN just lurked the old FoH boards, these, and a few others, and tried to incorporate some of the more outlandish game design ideas floating around. Ideas undoubtedly cooked up in some drug induced haze, because I'm just...
