How about this instead. You get a message. The message says "take the ISS by any means necessary." You assume that the other side got the same message. We can go a step further and assume that when they read their message they will also conclude what our orders are. Given these facts the...

Made it 2/3rds of the way through before I started fast forwarding. It's pretty bad. The premise isn't horrible but between the decisions of the characters and the current year character archetypes I stopped giving a shit very quickly.

Boy, and it never develops it either. I will say though that the books it uses for its source material (My Helmet for a Pillow + For the Old Breed) are each much better than the book that is the foundation of Band of Brothers. The Band of Brothers one was dry and not all that insightful. I...

Which is a zillion times easier as far as soil cleanup goes. Pack them in to a cube and put the cub in a mountain.

Was it any good?

The Rock is 51 and he's on the gas while having quite a few wrestler miles on that chassis. If he's not incredibly careful he's going to suffer one serious injury after another.

Virgil versus THE KLAN (Jim is his opponent, interference from Bryan Christopher). It was a different time.

These things are both true. Warner Brothers would never, ever make Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles today and what they would be willing to make would be woke garbage. HBO slapped the fucking thing with a trigger warning on their streaming service. Season 2 on the way!

Lots of funny ending segments in this one

In the first film we get news clippings about an EMP crippling New York. Toasting the power grid is instant anarchy by itself and then you throw in aliens on top and that's that. The issue I have is making them invulnerable (again, newspaper clippings) is stupid and impairs the plot...

If you mention the book in a game store (the magic and dnd and warhammer kind) nerds will materialize from the shadows and gush over it. This is reproducible.

Buy whatever you want but it's a book that sits on a shelf. The copy you actually read is probably going to be the mass marketed paperback so when you drip mustard on it who cares.

I've only read it the one time but I liked book two!

I did some bow stuff, some chieftan stuff, my league starter was splitting steel which was alright and I've messed around a bunch on a Ralakesh/Replica Badge Trickster with different Maven belts and shit and everything is more work than brands plus brands have no inherent drawbacks. My first...

QoL on brands is crazy. If they overtune another one next league I'm just starting whatever that is.

I wonder if some of this has to do with Black Adam being a flop. There were reports that Dwayne had a hell of an ego throughout the whole thing including wanting the DCU to put him front and center across Cavill even though the character is a Captain Marvel antagonist. The movie doesn't do very...

Rock! Go challenge Roman! You can do it, my life long friend!

I'm guessing there are a number of nerd oriented content creators that see themselves reflected and don't like it. More than one artist was salty over This is Spinal Tap which is a good sign you did your work as a satirist.

I was fucking dying when Jay said "we changed formats because we thought this would be easier." I don't even know which podcasts they're ripping on but that line had teeth.

I'm guessing that Punk's injury is a shoot plus he was scheduled to win the Royal Rumble and face Seth at Wrestlemania.

Twilight with the Rifftrax commentary track one of my favorite things they've ever done.

I haven't participated in GDKP runs in WoW but I have in EQ and all of them were more efficiently ran with people putting in more effort than 90% of the raids in the corresponding uber guild of the server.

https://www.wsj.com/business/federal-prosecutors-investigate-vince-mcmahon-sex-trafficking-allegations-460a6822 Looking like Uncle Sam wants to get his win back.

That's a terrible metaphor. It's more like we want to stop drug traffickers by shooting all the addicts.

From issue three, slightly abridged https://readcomiconline.li/Comic/The-Boys/Issue-3?id=51981 '

Before he goes I request one in-ring segment where the fans yell "piss" cadence of the classic "what" chant.

Correct. I do not think that people will buy the same amounts of gold to spend it on different shit. Removing a major destination for bought gold is going to lower demand for gold.

"The removal of GDKP is not going to lower demand for gold" is a hell of a position to take.

It's going to lower demand for gold.

So far I've read The Black-tongue Thief and The Suicide Motor Club from Buehlman and each was really good. This one is set in the 1930s and our main character is a WW1 vet taking his new bride (who divorced her husband to be with him torching their reputations) to the home he inherited in...

I hope this one's a work. I want this to go on longer. There's amusement in him just immediately going on the shelf again but he's capable of so much more.

I know this league is crazy so it's a less impressive offer than in time's past but I'm entering sunset mode and I've got a couple of magebloods if anyone wants one. Send me a message here and if I have some kind of idea who you are we'll set something up.

I listened to book one and two immediately back to back so I can't really separate them very well. I liked book two just fine but now I wonder if I would have had a different opinion if I had to wait between releases.

We're thirty years deep in to Pokemon ripoffs and homages and this is the one people are flipping their wigs over? I wonder if the people at Digimon or Monster Rancher got death threats. Oh shit look the fuck out Walmart.

When I said that Vince had a history of cutting deals and then just not paying I wasn't kidding. He did that to one promoter after another back when he first bought out the company from his father and was expanding. He got away with it every time. We could probably fill a stadium with all the...
