    The 80s kid thread

    Truth. I went to boarding school in England for 7 years, and for 6 of those years I had to fly out to wherever my parents lived at the time and back for the holidays. After a year of testing it was just me getting dropped off at the local train station, and I'd have to buy my ticket, take a...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well, this is GRR "Everybody Dies" Martin we're talking about- maybe they dont stop it. The wildings flooding over the wall and sweeping south might be setup for next season, and a nice lesson in why you dont dick around with civil wars in the face of a major invasion and an oncoming winter...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There was a small scene a few episodes ago with Melisandre reading Stannis his mail, one of which was from the Wall, and a brief comment from Stannis (I think) that its a kings duty to protect his people, and maybe something about preparing to move, but I'm not sure. It was certainly not...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'll second what others have said- never reroll secondary effects unless everything else is perfect (unless youre a monk using the "all your resists equal your best resist" thing). Always use rerolling to upgrade your dps or occasionally survivability on certain specific items. Reroll the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Compounded by his fathers general douchebaggery all through he and his siblings childhood (which is what drove Jamie and Cersei together forinstance), and personal disrespect for being a dwarf, yes. The rape/divorce thing is the last (very big) straw, on top of all that old shit, and the recent...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Canadian actually, but I went to boarding school in England from age 12 to 18, so I have some significant cultural contamination, so to speak, and even 30+ years later a slight english accent. The school I went to had mandatory sports 3 days a week where if the weather was too bad to use the...

    So far so good.We got serious 'bout all that snow stuff when we got the 2010 games. I managed to see one long-distance skiing event up near Whistler. It was a bit drizzly, but well worth the trip. (I live in Vancouver, so it was just a day-trip)

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Well remember that Lake Town was a major trade city before Smaug came, so it makes sense that it has a sampling of all races. That was specifically mentioned in the movie even, and restoring that status was the core of the dwarves speach to the townsfolk.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Actually it *can* be done, I had a barber who did it for a little while before he retired. He basically vacuumed my neck before and after taking the neck wrapping off. Worked very well. But he's the only one I've encountered who's ever done that.
