    Our Hobbies

    I play Badminton. I'm trying to get into rock climbing, but the seriously high number of papers I have to grade does not make me want to go out and sweat on a wall while someone belays.

    DOTA 2

    Made out like a pirate betting against Na'Vi in the Na'Vi vs. Alliance match. Before gametime it was 54/46 in favor of Na'vi. Na'Vi got blown the fuck out two games in a row. The Medusa pick game 2 out of Na'vi was a hail mary play but it worked not at all against Alliance when they had S4...

    Woman who was getting her box munched on in public now claiming rape

    Yeah you don't even need to get the police involved to permanently fuck someone's life. Just cry at the tribunal and get him expelled for "behavior unbecoming of a [Fill in the] Blank University Student." Happened at my school.

    Dude I know that feel. I had an entire ultrapro card holder/bag thing full of my 2 competitive decks, full playsets of FNM promos from stuff I had won, signed Wrath of God, full 25 foil of every land, and a few other signed cards including Shadowmage Infiltrator...probably more than 5-600 bucks...

    Answer the question above you, no matter what it is

    Not even a question. Genetically engineered long-lived supermen in power armor against easily-panicked dudes who like to hide in bunkers? If you could eliminate one country from the face of the earth instantly by thinking of it, which would it be?

    Yeah I have quite a few keys to steam games and humble bundles. PM me if you want to trade for something instead of being an extortion artist on an auction website.

    Neurosurgery

    I had to have an MRI lately as well, and you certainly want to have a few people look at it. Especially if you have ones you can compare from 2011, like you said. I got 2 different opinions on what was happening from 2 different doctors. I don't know specifically how your MRI(s) have been...

    The Future of Education - ReRolled Solves Problems

    Math is more important than English? Some of these kids come in Sophomore year and they can't fucking communicate through written words. They can sometimes barely do it talking when it isn't in twitter format. Being able to communicate is anessentialskill to pair with critical thinking...

    The Future of Education - ReRolled Solves Problems

    I don't have an English degree, but I can tell you that thinking you just burst onto your public school scene with perfect analytical skills is fucking stupid. You were taught those. Maybe by a parent, maybe earlier in school, but not everyone had that benefit. I'd say about 10-15% of kids...

    The Future of Education - ReRolled Solves Problems

    You had "a great analyzing skills?" Okay. You aced every english test with that? Neat. Putting aside how goddamn stupid you sound, the implementation is that, when learning it, you find yourself incorporating that beyond the literature. You find yourself asking "why?" about what you buy...

    The Future of Education - ReRolled Solves Problems

    I teach an English class at a high school and let me tell you--getting kids to read a "dumbass story" from a "dead writer" is a big deal. Not because it's important to know about literature, but because learning to analyze and critically think is instrumental to obtaining success, by almost any...

    Let me make sure I have this right and propah. Tell me if I'm wrong. My friend has 16 Dragon Dildos of Doom. You can't run 16 in a deck. He is more than happy to trade at least 12 of them, and even take a loss because I only have 12 Greasy Golden Showers and am willing to trade 8 of them...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    Must-miss. I mean...they call that publisher "Idea Fuck." No, seriously, look it up. That's what the Japanese call it. On another note, the humble bundle Weekly is pretty legit. I liked Darksiders II and it's well worth 6 bucks to me, plus all the other goodies including Supreme Commander...

    Depression

    Dabamf, I do agree that methodologies are getting tighter and that it's a good thing. I echo a lot of people's issues with the DSM 5, though. I also don't like that it's "5" instead of "V" now.

    DOTA 2

    Yeah Alliance got blown the fuck out game 1. Then game 2 there were some very questionable positioning choices by Liquid and they lost it pretty handily despite staying neck and neck in the early game.

    Depression

    On a psych exam I got docked because I said that the therapeutic alliance had a "limited" benefit, which I feel is fair. It doesn't do a lot on its own but it's necessary. Same with patient cooperation. Lost points because "The therapeutic alliance is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER." It's...

    Depression

    It's also found that without the therapeutic alliance, you can't accomplish very much (that is, you can't directly attribute it to failure but a therapist who doesn't give a fuck isn't a successful therapist. No brainer, I know).

    West is well aware of ET and he gets picked/banned quite a bit in NAEDL. Bulba played ET last night, and in the semipros I've seen him quite a bit as well.

    Are you guys including 3rd Street Promenade as part of the "Santa Monica pier?" Cause that place is pretty ballin' if the weather is good. Live street shows, homeless performers (can you spot the differences?), etc.

    DOTA 2

    The worst offender was Camera Positions (maphacklite) on the minimap. The client does want to know where your camera is and there were ways to see camera positions of the enemy team. No, the camera isn't always where your hero is but it sure wasn't "nothing."

    FV has serious problems in the current meta (and many argue, he has serious problems in general). Your top-tier carries are: AM, Alchemist, Gyrocopter, LD to a lesser extent, Troll Warlord can become huge (we'll see), Phantom Lancer is still a monster, Morphling though he's fallen off a lot...

    In my casting, I try to interview the captains/sometimes players before and after the game, and even in semi-pro or league games, people get salty as fuck. I've even had teams win 2-1 in a series and be fuckingfuriousthat they gave up one, to the point of yelling at team members. At the same...

    Star Trek - Into Darkness

    Simply because he is half human could explain how he could have a meaningful relationship with another human. And as for "rejecting" it...what? He went to Star Fleet and rejected the VSA offer to embrace hishumanmother's heritage. And his dad loved his mom.

    Thanks for responding--already did the "unblock" and "uncheck read only" thing. I even edited the registry to make sure that blocking it at all wasn't an option for downloaded files. Still getting the same error.
