    Honestly it reads just like many of the random flames you'll see claimed on TheBlaze or other places when someone wants to rant against the disabled or poor then claims they magically were part of the same group but pulled themselves out. While almost always quoting a number of severe outliers...

    All the Atlus titles absolutely have a "text speed" option that even includes a "skip" option in many cases.

    Wizardhawk's memorial thread (a cautionary tale of dental care and garlic)

    Soygen - I request that be shopped appropriately, if something's being poured out on his grave it's clearly supposed to be more crystalline and (I think?) blue. And being poured out by some toothless hill person with terrible skin.

    Hearthstone

    Well the Arcane x3 kept all my early critters dead, then the next three FB's took out my next critters - and the other 3-4 (I think I may have understated the turn number) were to my dome. If he'd have not done Arcane x3 to start the game with it probably wouldn't have even registered to me.

    Hearthstone

    It wouldn't have been odd if it was over an entire deck - but in the top 15 cards having 5 copies means screwed drawing or he should've had 10 FBs in the deck... Not to mention the 3 dupe Arcane and 6 or so Murlocs... Drafted 5x of the same card plenty of times, never see more than 2-3 in...

    Freedom Outpost where the article was first linked to what I can see isn't exactly a "bottom trawl" when so many people quote it - just like TPM running this ridiculous article:No Way To Add A Baby To Your Plan With HealthCare.gov A complete nonstory because as they say "Normally when a kid...

    DualShock 3 problems

    There's some Youtubes on how to fix the problem, they looked really annoying to do though - had the same issue and it self-resolved after not using that controller a while though oddly enough. Seems to be that there's some high density foam inside the controller that can in some cases get...

    Suggestion for PC player to get into occasional console side (PS4)..........

    I do both, but you've got to be clearer about what you are considering. If its FPS on console over PC - generally most people don't consider that wise.

    Hearthstone

    Got a feeling a hack has come into existence... literally played a mage earlier tonight... that Turn 4 cast Fireball... and Turn 9 had still cast a Fireball (without the "make Fireballs" dude) every single turn since turn 4. And 3 Arcane explosions during T1/2/3 mind you. (He had Coin)...

    Depends on the state - networks in the states that negotiated rates heavily ended up being pretty robust. The ones that wanted it to fail and took the insurance companies first offers are shit, as a "Sure we'll take whatever you say" plan will always be without negotiation.

    A few hospitals have access to that, the Federal mandate for it has failed being passed at least a half dozen times to date - it's a wanted item that's not happened as of yet. There's local ones in many states, most of which have started in the past couple years - Maryland's is only about...

    BTW since this is the 3DS thread as well - digital versions of the following Atlus games are all $10 off until 1/6 (Monday) since it wasn't mentioned earlier: Etrian Odyssey IV (highly recommend) - $20 Etrian Odyssey: Untold (even higher recommendation) - $30 SMT IV $30 (great I've heard...

    Deep Down is in NYC in 2084? What...? They clarified they weren't kidding too... please tell me that doesn't end up being factual that's just too damn weird if it's basically an AC type storyline for it where you're doing an "Animus" type thing to play in the past...

    They also have caveats on the website stating that benefits started within the enrollment period can experience delays of up to 6 weeks during which reimbursement can be sent in postpaid instead of prepaid. So due to her delaying it til the last minute she might have to get reimbursed instead...

    Do more of the sequences for a bit IMO - 100% as you go is a bit annoying to do with the ship because there's SOOOOO much to do with it.

    Naw, it's pretty easy to get Holy Damage to keep them dead early on early on Szilia - get the Holy Sword (Astora's or something like that?) in front of the Plague Dragon on the backside of Blighttown right off the bat and the skeletons stay dead. (And it's a good fill-in until) Although if...

    Dark Souls 2

    Gravelord Sword with light armor started for single wielding it ASAP is my rule of thumb personally. If you muscle through getting it first thing and do some trades to get it to +2 or +3 you can kill Capra in one diving attack and such. Hilariously good for quite a while. Also Toxin hits...

    Yeah did the MP trial they're running, seems terrible. But looks so pretty I'm keeping it in the GF queue to try to platinum when it comes in. Got Injustice ATM pretty but the trophy list is brutal and the gameplay is even worse than KI. Amusing story mode.

    How common that is cones down to your state, many pages back there was a nice graphic demonstrating it. NY average policy is down 40% or so, NV is up over 100% on average. So in NV it would be trivial to find someone with those types of stories, NY it would be unheard of. (Although note...

    Seemed like the equivalent of a Budweiser or other bikini commercial to me... Nothing particularly overt other than the dress code and minor stuff. I HATE seeing gay PDA stuff, straight PDA bothers me enough already and not 100% gay comfortable, and that barely registered any blips to me.
