    EQMac Now Free to Play

    We used a bard to ae lower magic resist and to ae buff, that usually let us keep it out of the group. With the lowered MR song rolling you can pull it off with only one enchanter, but for doing it by yourself I would hazard that's extremely risky. We had the best luck (biggest pulls) with a...

    Started up a couple toons on Saturday. About half way through 45, doing the SK / SHm combo. Venir / Sethlen are the names. Drop a line when you're bored I plan on being in game a lot this coming weekend. =)

    Yesterday was my dog's 4th birthday.

    Our girls. https://www.facebook.com/ShivaTheHusky This is what happens when you give your wife dogs instead of kids. She makes a facebook page for them. Shiva is 2.5 yrs old and Ember is 16 weeks. The little one probably has a page by now too, but I haven't looked for it yet >.<

    Military Thread

    Some of the guys I graduated HS with went to VMI and WP. They're both Majors now which I hear is pretty normal for 30 yr olds, and they have some awesome stories. I was on that track, but was diagnosed with Juvy diabetes in 11th grade and the recruiter literally left shaking his head.

    "I'm a fucking idiot, what do I do now?", he said to his wife.

    Cop is just blowing you off. Call back and you'll get another answer completely.

    I found both movies in a package on IPT since I couldn't find a stream.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    When they started including the Kinect bundle with x360, I know a lot of retailers would throw products at customers to make them buy. Bestbuy did a free game and $50 giftcard or something similar. I'm sure those deals skewed sale numbers a lot. (As was intended)

    Answer the question above you, no matter what it is

    Was doing an internship for a local newspaper. They wanted me to write a smear article over a previous employer, which I would never do. The guy in charge (editor) was attacking the previous bosses religious beliefs. He's Catholic, previous boss is southern baptist and I was raised church of...

    True Blood

    You could point out that it takes a Vampire to brainwash you to treat a wife like he does if it comes up anyway. At this point I'm only watching to see how Eric saves the season,(oh yea, tits). Bill might have super vamp powers but he's still a whiny bitch.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    The joke in our house is that our huskies (2yr old and 12 week old, both females) try to "cuddle" with my wife after sex. It's really fucking weird.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Had tons of fun listening to you blast the mechanics of BF3 while raiding on Vulak. =) I've easily been banned from 50 or so servers on the ps3 network for our squad winning by huge margins. Not doing anything crazy or shady, just V point res tactics. At this point we just do conquest scatter...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Sean mentioned this a few pages ago, the increasing frame rates by dropping resolution... That's how we decide on how to buy cross-con games for the last few years. On the back of the boxes the games always list the highest res. It's usually a surprise which has been better between 360 and...

    Pussification in America: Political Correctness is Gay

    If you're in Memphis I get this. If you're in Nashville you might want to stick to the Williamson county side of town. Only about 40% of those people are fake, the rest are naturally polite. I'm a Nashville native who's not polite even in pretend.

    Man of Steel

    Intentions without fallout is just boring and bad writing. Especially if the resurrection (lol!) is years later by a different writing team. They basically rewrite the history and for a lot of people that pissed off the nerds more than this movie did. (Doomsday example) I liked the movie well...

    Man of Steel

    Eh, I like the Manchester Black story arch where he pretends to kill Louis. There are a lot more examples of Sups not killing the badguy than there is of him actually doing it. You can't use the Doomsday is dead thing, he's been brought back a dozen times for various reasons.

    Fired for an availability change..

    Heh, sounds like Publix, and I've only seen the customer side of things. Fun retail tidbit... After the last seasonal firing Gamestop supposedly let go of nearly 3,500 people. 65% more than normal. Not just "seasonals" but also part-timers who they could write off. Third key holders were...

    Riddick (2013)

    Picked up the old 360 game for $2.50 last weekend as a quick refresher. Wife is bad at me for taking up her "Last of Us" time. Hah.

    What is more important... Salary or fringe benefits?

    Heh, you should take 40 weeks of only working 4 days if you don't plan on going anywhere. If you have a big family you might want to save some of those vacation days for funerals. Sounds depressing, but not every employer thinks about that stuff. Buddy of mine in his mid 30s has already hit 9...

    Are they going to ship a new model of these before ps4 hits? I'm tempted to get one now.

    Playstation 4

    On ps3 launch I flipped 2 of the backwards compatible since the Sony rep had already told me the next models would not have the capability. Only made about $300 profit off them (each). I won't bother doing any of that this time around. Wife works in Bestbuy management, so we might get a...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I agree that a lot of the graphics on the consoles have kind of capped, but a lot changes based on what TV you push the console through. We recently upgraded to a 50" plasma / Smart tv, and it took me two days to get used to the changes from visual to motion. (I had over steering problems in...

    While I may have laughed during a few scenes in his movies, I can honestly say I haven't really liked any of them. I tend to avoid comedies. /shrug

    After Earth

    Fuck yes F&F 7!! I read something earlier that I agreed with. Can't remember if it was here or another forum but it's basically that I get the feeling that MDS didn't care that much about this film since he didn't write it. Producers, Writers and Directors are supposed to balance things out...

    Now You See Me

    Her being Scottish but raised in Australia is neat and cool. Her being married to Sacha Baron Cohen is sad and depressing. Guess she's happy with it though, converted to Judaism and 2 kids later. I'll still see any movie she's in. MMm, redheads.

    After Earth

    Air Bender was worse. It's just popular to bash MDS and Will Jr at this point. You remake this movie the same way with a different cast and director and it would be completely ignored like most sci-fi movies.

    Hemlock Grove - Netflix series

    Eh, nothing about Twilight ever hooked me. I watch True Blood for humor and tits. A Buffy comparison shouldn't even be in this thread. After reading the book I'm actually looking forward to see what happens to Shelly.

    Be honest. If you like redheads you'll watch this movie and most likely enjoy it.

    Surprisingly I didn't get peeved watching this today. No MNS twist at the end either. Well, I did watch it after 2 bottles of wine with a lunch meeting. Not going to see it again until it's on cable though.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    We've owned both ps3 and 360 nearly since launch, and had to replace them at least once. If it's a cross platform game we always pick the version that is the best resolution. It's usually a wash between the two systems on how many are for 1080. I doubt we'll be buying both the next Gen...

    EA to stop Online Passes

    I think we can agree that Gamestop doesn't resell games for x+1. It's usually x+$15, and $25 for new releases. We only got hit with the online pass for BF3, and I had planned it as a gift so the extra 10 didn't bother me. (Tried to get a nephew away from CoD)
