You think taxes will be lower when we're older? They are at historically low levels now and can only go up. When it's time to retire you don't have kids as a write-off and a lot of people don't have home payments to write-off like they used to; overall tax bracket is equal or higher in many...

Despite what America "knows" or has been taught, tax-deferred investments aren't a great idea. They benefit the gov't, not the retiree. If you can get a match in something, contribute up to that match, but otherwise, pay taxes now and put it into something that'll be tax-free when you access...

Not quite. I have a sensible, fuel efficient daily driver that I want to be cheap and economical and I have a fun car with crazy power and crap MPG (achieved 8mpg one day in the canyons) with many more of both kinds going into the future. I don't dislike the idea of full electric cars. But, I...

Could be, but over all it's a cheaper proposition if you're going to turn over your cars more frequently. I'd love for electric, hydrogen, and hybrid cars to get more efficient and cost effective (diesel too). That way, I could get access to petrol at a more reasonable price, for longer, for...

Gotcha, thanks. You think there will be a Titanfall 2? Were the box sales enough to make this a financial success? I haven't heard a single thing about it's longevity. Even friends who got it were done within a few weeks.

Except when the battery packs die, which they will. And, will cost about as much as an engine in a cheap-o economy car.

Then why have them at all?

The miserable prick who thought it would be a good idea to sew the tag of this shirt onto the torso, just above waste level. That mother fucker can burn in hell for this itching piece of crap that requires tearing stitches and resewing the damn shirt to make it wearable.

Counter Strike: Global Offensive is both difficult and popular. *edit: and makes a shit-ton of money.

Snoring so loud and violently that I wake myself up with a painful snort. Now I'm mad and my throat hurts, trying to go back to sleep.

If the people you know are the least bit fun, Telestrations will have you all falling over laughing. Try Amazon.com and express ship.

That's not legal on the LL's part, depending on the state. Not nearly enough time allowed for a tenant to make arrangements. Fuck 'em.

Offered to bring in a business relationship to a new partnership with someone he knows - out of courtesy and respect, not because it was necessary - and this guy now wants 1/3 of all profits for doing jack-all. Fucking pissing me off.

Cannot fucking believe how god damn slow the GIF thread is. And, some how, it seems like it's getting worse. Nothing else in the whole of the interwebs is as slow.

Equus starts at about $61,000 On the car related things; my stupid car thinks that when I turn on the defroster, it needs to be on FULL FUCKING BLAST, even though I have the fans at 2 out of 10. Luckily only needed about 2-3 times a year.

If you find a Hellion with the double stun, get her. Auto-hit, stuns 2 targets for a round. Big help early on. And while we're on the subject of Hellions; I also got one that hits 3 targets at a time, fairly hard. Ran both in a group together along with a Vestal who had AoE heal; did pretty well.

Can you at least get past the first fucking dungeon? I can't. Everyone basically dead 2/3's into it.

I would assume it'll have fairly constant tweaks and patches (fingers crossed). It looks like fun so I got it; decent price. I hope it has CONTENT updates in a timely manner as well.

I'm not sure GW has ever made a sound business decision; at least not in the time I've played. Here's their idea for making profits: "Hey Bob, let's make this new army we're releasing the most powerful yet - followed by the NEXT army they release being the most powerful yet - but only if the...

Really good first shot at painting. Despite what you see on Golden Deamon and coolminiornot.com don't get caught up in trying to go balls-out. Pick 3 or 4 simple colors and make the units/army cohesive. That base work looks great too; wonderful way to tie an army together. I burned out on...

Along the same theme; Walking onto an elevator that's empty, but you can smell someone's rancid, rotting teeth and gums...

Just how it works bud. However, because you aren't in the wrong, most banks do go after the other party (sort of like having a car accident. You pay deductible then get reimbursed). Don't let it slide. Get that shit straightened out.

Congrats on the new Vette man; awesome ride. Very often I miss my old Z06 and would love to get something fun again (manual sports car) but it just isn't in the cards right now with needing 4 doors and moving soon. Hell, my Buddies' wife's car is now faster since he's modded it (300 SRT8).

Shock. Bliz hates warriors.

SimCity 2000 (the best one) is free to DL right on Origin, if anyone is interested. Got it again myself; the music brings back so many memories.

Absolutely. You'll definitely get that 2k you're looking for with a little practice. LFR isn't a good yard stick, but if you joined a Heroic - or even Normal - you would have a more thorough set of mechanics to work through.

Right. Curious to see what our Heroic run is like this week. I'll be running Fury on some fights too with the recent changes for my class. Just got lucky on a 1h drop from Butcher in LFR so I have 2 one-handers now.

https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...-done&cutoff=1 Since I got negged for lying about my post a half hour ago about what our hunters did. Fucking sandy Vags, jesus christ.

Our 640ish ilvl hunters are doing 22-23k usually, movement and all. But, they have a fair bit of raid experience. I bet you'll be at that same level with a little practice and becoming more familiar with fights. Same for our melee and movement; if we get a fairly static fight (Butcher...

What freakin' ilvl is that run at? Jeez. Nevermind, found it. Average ilvl 696, lol. So, not relevant to us yet, at all.

At no point in history has Blizzard understood how their classes perform and created any sort of balance. Yes, Gladiator is popular; it's because the other two specs are utter shit. How about you try to fix the broken and worthless crap instead of nerfing the only viable spec?

Yeah, it doesn't sound like it's a market-savvy person. But, someone else could buy his up and re-list slowly, maybe making 10% back on each. On our server, there is almost nothing on the AH for any slot. Real shame.

Anyone having luck with follower missions yet? I got a 645 trinket and am about 3 hours from completing a 645 1h weapon on another mission. Was able to get 6 followers at or above ilvl 630 last week. Was a drag too because the WarMill got me, I think, 2 decent upgrades and the rest was armor...

Haha, ok, thank you. Appreciate the advice. I'll look elsewhere for a thought-provoking and strategic game. Was hoping what I heard about Diplomacy were exaggerations.

No kidding? That's interesting. Learn something every day.

Mile + of backed up traffic on 3 lane highway; clearly everyone is stopped. Got rear-ended by idiot on phone. Took 3 hours before I had a rental and could get to the office. Rental is a Cadillac SRX...and it's crap.

It may have been mentioned earlier in the thread - but I can't find it currently - but does anyone have experience with Diplomacy? Anticipated game time is 6 hours; is that true? Also, will it ruin friendships and tear families apart?

Heater...for a fridge, so you can cool things. Does not compute.

Was able to do first 2 bosses of Highmaul last night. Kargath was fun and pretty easy. Butcher took some attempts, but when we got it right, he went down with only 1 player death (20 man). Hit a wall at Braken though. Not bad for PUG opening night.

That's about as realistic as a game can get. I've seen that shit happen live down in Florida; funny stuff.
