Er yeah, outfitter. That one. What's so wrong with the raiding game?

Finally got it to not crash. Spent a few hours playing and am up to level 7 disciple. Seems decent. I kinda feel like an asshole playing disciple though, if that's what everyone is playing. Went with whatever tradeskill makes light armor (craftsman?). Hopefully I picked right.

Aychamo missed the important part, where he says "we'd consitently have a full room for lunch on the weekdays." So basically, he worked in a restaurant over the summer.

For some reason I read this as you arguing that piracy increases your costs for legitimately buying media, since you're having to pay for the people who would otherwise be buying. But do you really think the companies would drop their prices if all pirates started legitimately purchasing things...

Uh, they give the chicks razors and hand out condoms too. They're not really stranded.

I cut my own hair at the moment (buzz), but absolutely assuming you have one that does a good job and you go to regularly. You don't wanna fuck around with someone who can make you look like an asshole for months at a time. But essentially I only do it out of fear, not because they...

He's out of his damn mind. Prime example of why you don't pay running backs anymore.

Meh, until I see guaranteed numbers, that doesn't mean anything. No player ever gets paid the full amount.

It was fucking terrible when I first played. But people on FoH recommended a custom client (Ender's) that basically highlighted all resources on the mini map. It made the game much more enjoyable.

The purity change ruined that game. I have no idea what they came up with instead (they were going to go with one where you "improved" the purity around you), but that absolutely ruined it for me.

Cool study, but is a 1.1% rise in prevelence really significant either? I didn't read the article to find their sample size, but I'd be willing to bet it's not statistically significant. It's also been a long time since I've used stats, so I'm prepared to be schooled by someone.

Man, these fucking people... But just before that: Gee, I wonder why there's a small fraction of people with your top tier? Could it possibly be that it's overpriced?

Yeah, I just meant it's per state. So $55.98 for my state returns. Fuck that noise.

I don't think I am. I went through TurboTax, but haven't done state. It does give you an estimate as you go through, and it says I owe a fuckton of money to Illinois. Basically, it's taking all my income from California and saying I didn't pay any state tax on it. But I did...to California...

If the employee just decides to read the formula for leisure, yes, it's stolen, but there's no harmful repercussions to company A. In your example, company A is harmed because company B has proprietary information. In media piracy, how is that at all similar? One is corporate espionage, the...

Chiefs need an offensive line. They have plenty of skill position players. Their problem is the line allows the QB to get the shit absolutely kicked out of them.

Damn, I was literally just about to post that. Pretty interesting timing with us just discussing it.

Even in that circumstance, the content providers are essentially being "taxed" by ISP's since their inflated rates to access are a fixed cost for consumers. If I have to pay $60 for a $20 service, that's $40 I'm not spending on content. It's also a barrier to entry forconsumerswho want to access...

I've always done my own taxes (finance degree), but this year the state taxes are fucking me up. I'm considering TurboTax for state, but I'm leery that even it will screw it up. I lived in Illinois from January - July, and California from July - December. My wife lived in Illinois for all of...

He's a real douche. Anyone who's a combat vet who starts off by saying "I really saw some shit" is probably full of it. I feel bad for Marines because he's making them look even more retarded than they actually are (I kid...sorta).

For some reason I want to say it's the media companies that are for bundling, and not the distributors (cable/satellite). Viacom, for example, basically forcing the cable companies to offer all their shit channels in a package with the ones people want.

http://news.discovery.com/space/priv...ght-130227.htm Apparently they're looking for a married couple for the first Mars mission. I wish I could convince my wife to apply for something like that. Even in the likely event that we die, being able to see Mars from orbit would be amazing.

Fun to read:http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=270465 I can't figure out if I feel worse for Chiefs fans or Browns fans.

The problem with online free of charge shows is you're stuck with low resolution crap that you're forced to watch in a browser. Not exactly an equal replacement. And then basic cable packages are bundled (see above). You end up paying for channels that suck dick just for the few you actually...

Good point. Andy Reid is pretty awesome with QB's, but he heavily favors a 60/40 (or higher) pass to run ratio. That's not really playing to Smith's strengths as a game manager.

Holy shit. I think we paid in the neighborhood of $600-700 for ours. The bulk of that was the reception where we took everyone out to eat and spent like $450. I want to say we had 14 people total. I definitely recommend going small. Not only that, but my wife's family gave us $5,000 that they...

Cutler is half the QB Smith is? Wow, dude... Smith isn't even on your team anymore! You can stop.

If tipping subsidizes food costs, the customers are the ones paying for it anyway. Why would food costs increase above and beyond what we're already subsidizing them?

Not only is it a 2nd round pick, but it's at the top of the 2nd. Absolutely ridiculous. What 2nd string QB will they trade for next year?

I don't agree that prices would go up 15-20%. The reason being that wait staff don't make minimum wage currently. Eliminating tips would save me 15-20% off the top. Raising the employees from their current age to minimum (or minimum +, which is more likely) will end up being less than that...

That's why I kind of thought it was the glute exercises that fucked me up. I've been doing hip thrusts lately to get some glute activation on squats and deadlifts. I also did some heavy leg press with an emphasis on hamstrings right before it started hurting. I've been foam rolling everything...

The month isn't over yet, but I'm taking a break so my lifting is. Have had some nagging lower back pain that was exacerbated by lots of glute exercises (I think). So I'm taking off as much time as it takes to stop having lower back pain. I didn't meet my lifting goals, but considering how lofty...

I'm as opposed to waiters complaining about their tips as you can be, but get a fucking grip. You really expect restaurant workers to claim every penny of their wages? I'm pretty sure every single laborer in the country right now is looking to get out of as much taxes as humanly possible...

The ring I originally wanted to get my wife was a diamond with sapphires on each side. I thought it looked pretty awesome.

Re-read the part where I said it doesn't matter, no one makes minimum wage anyway. Also, minimum wage in 1993 was $4.25. So unless you somehow can't make $1.75 in tips per hour, you were making minimum wage. If not, you were fucking terrible and probably were lucky just to have a job.

Except it's been pointed out several times that you're guaranteed minimum wage. It's a federal law. You will NEVER make $3.00 an hour. It also makes no difference, because I don't know anyone who's ever made minimum wage in a restaurant. I know, because I worked in one just like you!

You're an asshole is what you are. You seriously pursued someone outside of the restaurant to hound them for money? What the fuck, man? Tips are essentially a bonus that you get on every transaction. Do you think if I don't get a year-end bonus that I go following my boss out to the parking...

My wife picked out her own ring, I want to say at Sam's. She gets complimented on it regularly. She seems happy with it, and that's all I care about. That said, we've been married almost 9 years, and she's mentioned several times about upgrading it. Fucking retarded.

Brienne was awesome in the books. Her chapters with Jamie were some of the best.

I'm about 95% sure whoever drafts Te'o will regret it. He just doesn't look like a very good player to me. I have no idea how he's rated as one of the top ILB's this year.
