    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I guess I feel bad about zombing through and missing some of the cool connections they make, but also remember thinking ‘fuck this whole Redmask story’ then getting the result and thinking ‘man, good thing I didn’t pay much attention to that’

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Unnngg just got to 9 and it’s a love hate for me. Like The Shake and thought process or the Kchain, how can I possibly care about that stuff after following the other story lines for 8 books. How you gonna deep dive into these side stories this point, STEVE. The love part is real too, though...

    Thanks, pharma. I just tried to build green stompy but it’s only like 50% wr and just discovered the format. Trying to find something I like that’s not drafting after I blow my gem load

    Dating

    Sorry, yes, that was dating advice from the movie, Magnolia. It’s a joke, but myself and a cadre of guys used some of the tricks to up our chances and I did meet my wife that way. She does say she totally forgot who I was because I tried the 14 day thing and I just stopped existing in her...

    Dating

    The great Frank TJ Mackey gave us a few simple rules that will catapult you to more successful dates. The 14 day rule is easily the most simple and useful. If you really like someone and had a great date, then you must wait 14 days to ask them out again. You must be hard on yourself, do not...

    Luther: The Fallen Sun (2023)

    Luther was a good character and they could have really nailed a Seven type thing, but there were so many stupid fucking moments like the ones alluded to above. These 'gotcha' moments are so predictable and they put them in movies because they think they're like "WOW HE GAWT AWAY UNREAL, except...

    Would be cool if they tiered loot tables based on size of raid + speed of kill 25 or less = 150% loot 35 = 125% loot 45 + no bonus 60 + no bonus So if you Zerg you can get the speed bonus but not size etc

    I told my neighbor that we wouldn’t play because it would probably ruin his good life and he laughed and agreed. My original pitch was ‘would you like to try a relaunch of one of the games that started it all?’ He’s only 30 so he missed the boat. A few minutes later when our wives were...

    Car ?'s

    Correct, it’s a quality control issue. The roof brackets were recalled, but the other seals/plastic are common to be defective and fly off on the interstate. My mechanic buddy said they don’t recall parts like that bc it’s not cost effective unless it’s killing people or causing enough...

    Probably good advice. Explorer has souped up engine with no issues and is paid off. May as well try to get another couple of years. I took a job that’s 1099 and puts 20k miles a year. Nice tax break, but not the best thing for the car 🚗

    I have a family of 4 and my 2017 explorer just hit 100k miles. No reliability issues at all, but the exterior is literally flying off the vehicle at a startling rate. (Lost top rack, front windshield frame, and a door key input pad to just driving). My wife has a company truck, but she may...

    Just buy the game, play with some friends, neighbors, and coworkers. If it sucks, then I’m sure you’ll still get more entertainment than I do for a round of golf that’s more expensive. Jesus titty Christ, people. None of the half ass games do well enough to compete financially with the...

    Embarrassing, but I think it took me 5 or 6 drafts to get to 7 wins. Finally went 7-1 with black red luck with rares and 4 of the 2/4 damage single mana nuke. this format has kicked my ass, but I still love a draft and will keep trying to find the cracks, but I’m leaning towards everything is...

    Show was cool - not everything can be true detective s1, da wire, or Dark. It’s fine to pick at stuff, but in the end I think it’s going to be she sacrificed her real world existence for the uploaded sim of her consciousness - get there how you want, but that’s what it’s gonna be! maybe
