    I'm astonished GW is still alive these days. They have done nothing but destroy their fan base year after year. Price hikes, shit quality, price hikes, killing off fun side games, price hikes, shutting down FAN SITES DEVOTED TO THEIR PRODUCT, price hikes, etc. etc. Privateer Press and other...

    Damn, that's crazy. Every time I play arenas, the SAME results happen: lose, lose win, win, win, lose. Always, ALWAYS end up 3-3 with the same exact sequence. Guess I just suck at making decks, lol.

    Is there - or does someone here - have a breakdown of what the Origins set is all about? I see a lot of names from the Theros block, but also plenty of stuff from other sets. Is it just a mish-mash of shit? What's the theme?

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I'd actually call that "asshole" teacher, decent. One of the biggest problems I have with college age people is the complete lack of caring and effort. So many kids want to just glide by on Dad's money and when someone takes the time to read, comprehend, argue, and then back up a point/claim...

    DOTA 2

    I hope most, if not all teams adopt a similar structure so they don't keep getting screwed. Young and naive teens and early 20-somethings really don't understand business and finance and are easily taken advantage of (a lot like pro athletes just out of college in the US.)

    Do you guys mean the Naxx/Blackrock adventure thing and the car rewards at the end? Or, does it provide more than just the ones at the end, as you go through it? I ranked up to 19 today and as soon as I hit the teens, I was up against a lot of cards that were much higher caliber than what I...

    Haha, good call. The E class should be getting an overhaul soon too, if you can wait. The current gen only got a face lift, but it fooled enough people into thinking it was a new generation. The tech inside isn't up to par with the new C class even. Love the wagon though; fuck I wish North...

    Trying to get into HS to occasionally pass the time during the day. Seems like a massive grind (hi2u Blizzard) to get anywhere. My card selection is absolute crap and everything from packs has been absolute crap. I'd really rather not spend real money to get cards, but I'd like to have some fun...

    In our local group, a deck like that would be played against once and then no one would put up with it again, so it would be dismantled; like someone's Stasis deck that we pretend didn't exist.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    BMW's dual clutch does what you're saying, sort of: Mash the gas to the floor until it hits the kick-down button under the gas pedal and then pull the left (downshift) paddle and it'll kick to the lowest gear it can for instant go.

    It's the "best thing ever" for everyone BUT the client using it. Kind of like: IRAs, 401ks, and other tax deferred accounts: Gov't wins, not the person saving.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Current light-duty, entry level trucks like the Colorado, Frontier, Tacoma, etc. are as large as the full size trucks were a decade ago. Same thing with cars; current Honda Civic is as big as the old Accord. Current Audi A4 is as big as the old A6, and on and on. People insist in having all...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    When it comes to wheels, the smaller the wheel and the larger the tire sidewall, the better the ride. Ultimately, however, it's a combo of wheel, tire and suspension.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    You're not alone, believe me (my last 3 daily drivers were either ZF or DCT cars with paddles), but the world's trend is towards ease of use - laziness - and these sorts of things are going to be more common each year. If you're leg isn't up to it, make due with what you can tolerate and just...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Must have gotten that Maser last week, if it hasn't fallen to pieces yet. And, the Maserati trans is NOT a dual-clutch or anything in the current generation, even. It's widely criticized as one of the worst transmissions put in a car in the last decade. So, you're feelings about it are correct...

    How come it was replaced? Would it have been unfair to everyone else? I would have thought the guy would be happy to have a great pack.

    Being an adult sucks

    You live in the Bible Belt, or around crazies? On the coasts, where people are able to think objectively and without fear of a made-up flying spaghetti monster sending them to a fiery afterlife, things are different.

    That wouldn't surprise me. Stupid abound in this country. I sincerely wish I didn't have an HOA; they do nothing for me and all of my neighbors feel the same. Commi-fornia.

    Being an adult sucks

    Be a whining, entitled, useless meat-sack ("oh poor me" minority or illegal immigrant) and you can get 18 years paid time off from the Taxpayers, for each kid! Anyway; being an adult is bitter-sweet. Can do anything I want. Have my own house. My own cars. If I want something, I get it - no...

    Un-fucking-believable. Yet, I absolutely believe it. HOAs in neighborhoods around here range from $200/mo to $600/mo. But, if the HOA tried to pull shit like that to people in our neighborhoods, you'd better believe anyone threatening the residents would be shit-canned and end up paying the...

    Haha, probably. Maybe there could be internal supports of some kind and the resin would sort of an exo-skeleton that hides the fact that it's hollow. But, at the current prices, I'm shocked they sell any at all and larger ones would just be that much more costly. Could buy a decent commuter car...
