    Blue Star donuts up here in the Northwest have pretty good donuts but at $3-4 a piece it's not the same. Took a dozen home to the wife and it was $45. It's like the pizza discussion. It wasn't triple the price better than a grocery store or dunkin. All donuts taste the same.

    PS4 games for our kids

    4 years old isn't too young to start. Especially on a Switch because the joycons are small. My son started in on the Ps4 controller about that time. He's a natural though. Figured out how to hit the buttons he needed to hit. He's 6 now and holds the controller normally.

    God of War (2018)

    I might have to eat my pride, and drop the difficulty, to be able to get thru the story. Game was really hard for me but I think I just gotta get used to parry and block.

    Not to throw more salt on the wound, but over the years there has been some pretty amazing deals on trade ins. Probably about a year ago I traded in my launch Ps4 for $200, way more than I could get from anywhere else, and bought brand new Ps4 slim 1TB. This deal was through Gamestop. I wish...

    Picked up the Spiderman DLC pack. Of all those top amazing games on PS4, I've finished so few, but Spiderman was one I completed 100%. Excited to get back into the DLC.

    We all bitch about the cap, but the percent of people that even get close to cap every month, even in our "connected" world, is really really low. I read it on the internet once, it's totally true.

    Went to a massive 800 person Lan party earlier this year and while I was totally against rgb setups before, actually seeing them, some were pretty damn cool. Made me want to build a new rediculous rgb rainbow bright machine.

    I knee jerk pre ordered this because I believe in the tech after playing in the project stream beta. But after reading about it, I don't think that it's a service for me? I have a Ps4 and a gaming PC. I'm not going to get anything out of this.

    So Stadia is it's own platform? Or what does cross saves mean? Play a shit ton on stadia? Save it. Come back and play that same character on steam?

    If that was your whole meal that's not too bad, but it's still a ton of steps for a veggie side, and I like Brussel Sprouts. It looks amazing though, and I'm sure it tasted great! Served cold or hot? Make a massive bowl of it to serve as a side?

    GameStop Stock Worth $5.13...But Only Worth 7cents In Store Credit

    I've never had issues with pushy people at Gamestop? Guess I'm the luckiest person on Earth. I remember the questions but I said no and they moved on. Wasn't a big deal. My local Gamestop I like because I'm not aware of any other game stores and so it's at least one place you can go to talk...

    GameStop Stock Worth $5.13...But Only Worth 7cents In Store Credit

    I'm gonna be the last hold out. I don't like digital games for consoles. To me, consoles is about that disc. I'm in the minority here of course, but I love having that disc. Bought DA:I and Bloodborne earlier this year digital and it weirds me out. Haven't played either game.

    So as loosely as you want to believe, Chipotle is Mission style burritos? The massive burritos that I get from places like Muchas Gracias, Losbetos, Filibertos, Robertos, Elibertos, etc. are also all mission style sorta?

    This list is pretty damn good. My 6 year old also loved the new spiderman. Knack and knack 2 though he's gotten the most time into. Doesn't even care that he's beaten them both 3 times. He just loves it. But that was the same in spiderman. He'd just run the same mission over and over beating up...

    Funny you mention Bitesquad. I've never heard of them until literally just yesterday when I was looking for a Chicago Style stuffed pizza place, and the best rated place in Seattle for it happen to also deliver via Bitesquad. Will have to see about using them more.

    That reminds me of the gas station fried chicken that I got via Uber Eats when I was in Cleveland. I didn't realize it was from a gas station until I researched it more because honestly it was freakin' damn good!

    I just ordered from Uber Eats! Of the dozens of times I've ordered from them all, overall I'm happy. You just learn some tricks, to make it better, and who not to order from.

    Uber Eats hasn't done me wrong yet. Door Dash I thought was pretty great because of the restaurants that they had. Lot of chains that I like, but then I got "hacked", and someone used my account to order food on their own CC? I have no fucking idea wtf this was about. They refunded me the entire...

    Hahaha! In 2 years this is the first time taking the Ps4. I gotta say , it's not a bad idea. I feel like I can dick around way more when I have my gaming laptop vs Ps4. Granted, I still have my work laptop to do things, but it's not the same.

    In the last 2 years of traveling for work, the worst I've seen is they won't make it obvious how to switch inputs. The TV won't have a button, and the remote won't either. At least not in Hilton hotels have they been locked down. Playing Uncharted 2 right now. Man, this game is great!

    In a hotel, and brought my Ps4, instead of my gaming laptop for the week. Wanted to try and bust out some Uncharted, but I don't have any internet. PS4's can't handle the captiv portal thing that hotels do to connect to wifi, but will it even matter? It'll just upload my saves to the cloud once...
