    I lost my pet today and I’m really sad

    Every one of these stories is terrible and heartbreaking and at the same time, we should all embrace these moments, and remember that before these endings there was great long years of happiness and laughter, and that when the time is right, there will be another opportunity for a different...

    Cobra Kai

    Look, the show is what it is. If you can't handle a show where everyone settles issues with karate fights, where a minister leg sweeps a drunk in church, and where rival karate gangs regularly engage in all-out brawls, you came to the wrong place. I mostly watched the whole drop: It was...

    The Katie Katro Thread

    She's super attractive but if we start a "chicks with huge mouths" thread, she has to go at the top. I mean, some of these later pics are distracting and not in a good way.

    Well, sure, every Grrrrl Pwrr!!! can find her inner Tigress and then be able to do every thing *THE BESTEST EVAR* /doomcock without any training because the Force's pronouns are blargleblargle <gag> <cough>. Most. REAL. Thing. ever. As opposed to Star Wars already having a trendsetting...

    New World

    Exactly: It was the pre-twitter/social media effect, where these people are influencers and effectively wanting to play their own game (Raids) that differed from what most people are playing. You also see/saw the same thing in the PvP space, where the UO crowd would come in, Devs would try to...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    In the video of the "secret ending" I watched a few days ago, V 5-hit Adam Smasher with Satori. I went back and got it and have been rotating it in with my baseball bat/electric baton asp ever since.

    There have been a number of times where the output of a selection hasn't been really apparent?, or my intent in choosing it didn't line up with the author's intent in writing/presenting it? In any event, the disconnect has only been apparent after the fact. Those are some critical consequences...

    So boys are conflict oriented because of nurture and girls play with dolls because their parents "subtly" encourage them? Can we get back to Star Wars? Edit: Sorry if this seemed like an abrupt shift but if the other was barely on topic, this was going to go far afield and wow, I just wanted...

    He is one of the two Ripperdocs in the west side of Japantown. Fingers MD, although I didn't punch him as part of the quest, was unforgiving because I punched him after. Totes refused my eddies because he didn't trust me and asked me to leave. Even removed the ripperdoc icon from my map...

    The Mandalorian

    Non-Mandorelain While it may be cliche, you can know a lot about groups and still know very little or only broad outlines about an individual, and thus I have learned to take great pains to not to extrapolate too much and use language that reflects that. Otherwise, you open yourself up to...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I chose to not punch him, and then punched him after, before I knew about the hover jets. Now I am a sad. :| I haven't even been back to look to see what is going on in his office because I don't remember where it is. Will definitely not be punching again on my next playthrough.

    The Mandalorian

    I don't think the problem is "women". I think Chuk is incorrect to put that general a label on it. The problem with Star Wars is progressive politics and Disney deciding they wanted to expand the fan base in a different direction, even if it meant burning some bridges with the old one. It's...

    The Mandalorian

    I don't disagree: There might be one or two but it speaks to the larger part of the agenda, which is to end the previous era and jettison the old fanbase in favor of a new one. Invariably Marxists don't build new things, they invade existing institutions, hollow them out, wear the skins like...

    It's unproductive, particularly in the social sciences, to make blanket statements like that. Men *tend* to get it and women *tend* to not get it or care about it because of the things that drive us. Let's not quibble about who does or doesn't based upon hard lines. It's an individual...

    That's why they call V a mercenary: Because really it's *you* that is making the choices for him/her to be the killer or the thug or the white knight. It's almost like the calls were coming from inside the house the whole time. Just because the easy ones, or the shortcuts, or the ones that...

    Houston, moving there.

    Depends on where in Pearland; I have a few friends that live there now but no one is commuting seemingly because of the WuFlu. We have been WFH since late Feb, early March. Housing prices don't seem to have taken a hit, house we bought as a teardown zoned to a terrible school after the...

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    The original story was written such that the parents were wishing for their son who had been killed in the Boer War(?) would return, IIRC. So it was an old known story at that point, I believe. Edit: Published in 1902, the subject of tons of treatments and remakes in various media, son isn't a...

    It depends on the context: Who wants to sleep with a pornstar *just* because they are a pornstar? That is what I find creepy. As a woman redeemed, sure; I am sure the holes work fine. But to answer the incredulity, why are there people buying bottles of Belle's pee? The Internet gives rise and...

    I got angry as well but the point is these aren't choices to make: These are memories of what Johnny did that you are reliving. You get to play through/experience them in a neat color scheme but they are what already has happened, so no choice is involved. Although I am not there yet, it does...

    WTF is "quality, meaningful combat experience"? Is this a date? Does every time you massacre a group of outlaws/gangbangers/corpo thugs need to leave you fulfilled as a merc in a dystopian future city? Isn't there a difficulty level? I ask because I think I did this playthrough on normal or...

    Look, playing on PS5 there are tons of things I wish were different. There is a huge spoiler narrative choice I hate hate hate in the game that is absolutely unnecessary. I mean, I understand why they did it but even with all the considerations, I still don't like it. Let me list a few of them...

    Really? Half the product. The "shallow shell"? Not only is your opinion "unpopular", its uninformed. If you want to look at a thin shell, look at how thin the shell of actual society is around you and think what happened when Covid "slowed" down production of diet soda and toliet paper...

    These are the Mandalorian pure-blood Nobility; Djin is a Deathwatch foundling but an honorable one. Boba and Jango Fett (Jango being a foundling himself) are famous servants of the Empire, the same Empire that broke up and drove the Mandalorians off their home world. Jango is the even more...

    I would certainly believe this is Dua Lipa as opposed to AOC. First off look at the eyes, then look at the torso/pelvis and the boobs. Nowhere close to the same people.

    Yeah, that was utterly awesome. When the X-Wing flew up I was like "Nooo.... YES!!!!!" I was hoping for the Sebastian Stan Luke recast because, come on, that level of CGI never looks good but Mark probably has some contractual thing about it, so they just went with the easier route. And look...

    It's part of the tutorial I don't know how that could be a spoiler but some people. Yeah, its not Destiny, part for me at least of making the world feel real is that there is lots of stuff that drops. Elder Scrolls/Morrowind/Skyrim did this well, in that there were tons of items in the world...

    "This diamond dick is cloudy". You're playing an open-world game that has to be backwards compatible on 7 year old consoles, had to launch on multiple platforms with hundreds of quests, etc. etc. Games that are effectively Launch titles that aren't exclusive *can't* ever be revolutionary...
