    The Fast Food Thread

    So I don't usually eat fast food anymore. I have my own chicken sandwiches that I make with sous vide chicken thigh & chibatta bread for my work lunch meals. I'll make 16 at a shot and just freeze them until the day I eat one. Then over the weekend I'll have lunch with the kids, which is...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I work with this minimum wage fat girl that ALWAYS has a starbucks contraption in her hand. It's never just coffee. It's something more expensive. I've told her to stop wasting her money, but she has no interest in doing anything different. So whatever.

    I agree. Paying someone to deliver food is fucking pathetic and lazy. Get off your ass and get your own food or learn to make shit yourself. Stop pissing money away on a delivery fee among all the other bullshit. Food shouldn't make up 90% of your total take home earnings.

    Just finished this season. I mostly enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next season.

    Is there any mobile games out there that aren't just money grabs?

    I hear good things about Gailardia Trilogy. It's 11 years old, and still runs fine. Has micro transactions, but not using them doesn't seem to change the game at all. It's set up like early Final Fantasy & Dragon Warrior games for the NES.

    Rick and Morty

    I don't disagree in theory, but at the same time, last season wasn't bad. The final episode of the season got a little emotionally deep as well, with characters coming to terms with themselves. It was a good watch.

    Savage Dragon was my first Image Comics experience. I was away at summer camp and Savage Dragon #1 was in their little trading post thing. I used to go up there any time I was bored and got that. Summer camp was 1-week long, and after getting this book, I started to collect Savage Dragon at...

    I have issues 1-150 or so. I stopped reading them after a while, but I still kept purchasing every month. I stopped collecting comics as a whole right before I met my wife, because I pretty much forgot to keep getting them. Years later I started downloading some digital comics (Saga), but...

    Final Destination Bloodlines (2025)

    That log scene from the second one will forever stay with me. Granted, logging trucks like that don't exist in Hawaii, but I will still forever never follow behind a truck carrying them.

    Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025)

    I loved experiencing the giant Birj Khalifa tower via MI4. That really made the stunt game in this movie series take off. They can only up themselves, which is how 5, 6 & 7 went.

    It's true. Apple takes 30% of every payment performed with the Apple platform. Regardless of what the purchase is if Apple is handling it, they're talking 30%.

    If I'm not mistaken, fallout is the one with the plexiglass holding cage. Not going to spoil anything more than saying just that. EDIT: Ok, I was mistaken. Fallout had to do with the nuclear camp. It was Rogue Nation that had the holding cage.

    Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025)

    At the time, the first was very good. However, since seeing what the series has become, it's trash. Like when he folds the gum to make the giant fish tank explode, but there's 0 fish inside of it. It's just a giant tank of water. I thought the third was pretty badass. Philip Seymore...

    A strong light novel series to get into is Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash. They had an anime way back in early 2016. There's currently 20 novels in English, with the 21st due to come out in a month or two. I think the 22nd will be the final novel. This is a really well written series...

    You need to read the actual book. It's so much better than the manga. And the manga goes off on a complete left turn at some point. Well, technically it started off as a web novel. But the author signed with a publisher that had a quality editor that fixed the story even more. You can...

    Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)

    I think he's falsely talking about Mission Impossible movies. The only real boring one was maybe #2. Well, #1 was slow at times as well, but #3 really kicked it up a notch. Kinda like Fast and the Furious. It didn't become a decent movie until Tokyo Drift (also #3).
