    Let's talk about sex redux

    Was banging a chick on my couch one time, her on top, and she squirted within about a minute of starting to have sex. It was my first experience with that, I thought to myself "yeah I'm the man" and kept banging away. Another minute later, another splash of warm fluid. I'm like "well this is...

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    I don't know if I give "zero fucks", but I too have a hard time getting too worked up about this. Yes it's a terrible, cowardly act. But terrorism in general is not the problem so many people think it is, statistically. Car accidents, workplace accidents, various diseases, drug/alcohol abuse...

    Buying a car?

    What you described to me sounds much worse than average, so I'd probably take the 8k.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    That's pretty much irrelevant, because it's not like you can buy a bitcoin and use it to power your house. There's no "real value" there.

    The big thread of game industry fuck ups

    Fuck you, I'd managed to completely purge the memory of that game from my mind. I had been so pumped for it, it sounded fucking amazing. Anyone who thinks that today's games are worse than they were back in the day in terms of being incomplete or buggy need to keep shit like Outpost in mind...

    Deftones bassist Chi Cheng dead at age 42

    Is that the cause/circumstances? I was going to ask what they were. Minor/moderate fender bender and he wasn't wearing a seat belt? That's pretty shitty.

    Critically acclaimed shows of the last 20 years that you haven't watched

    The plotting of most episodes was phenomenal, that's what I liked about it. Each character would start off with their own little story or issue, and by the end of the episode they'd all come together for a hilarious payoff. The episode where George has been telling a chick he's a marine...

    North Korea goes full retard

    Perhaps. Don't let the fact that Omar didn't start the Taliban until ~1994 get in the way of Araysar's bullshit. It's origins go back further of course to the Soviet occupation, but "The Taliban" as it is mostly thought of didn't really exist until sometime in the early 90s.

    North Korea goes full retard

    Whoever was arguing earlier that there is no such "thing" as "The Taliban" is a straight up moron, by the way. I guess Mullah Omar wasn't a real person, and he wasn't head of it's supreme council either. I'm not really going to get in to the argument about whether or not it was a good idea to...

    Like I said, a couple of reporters were going for Lowe's throat:http://blogs.edmontonjournal.com/201...-the-hot-seat/ That sums it up pretty well. MacT was the coach for one season under Tambo and had been for 6-7 years prior. Lowe was the GM prior.

    http://www.downgoesbrown.com/2013/04...nterviews.html It was definitely time for Tambo to go when he let the team playing with 8 fucking defense and 2 centers for most of the season. That was genius. Guy was terrified to make a big trade apparently, and he did nothing to improve the team...

    North Korea goes full retard

    What is so funny? Implosion type weapons are finicky as shit, and it's entirely possible for the detonation to only partially cook off, with most of the fissile material wasted. At least as far as I understand things.

    North Korea goes full retard

    I read an interview with some NK expert that said the current thinking is that their weapons from the start have been miniaturized implosion type warheads, with an eye to being able to make ICBM ready ones, and that's why they've been fizzling. Because just about any asshole with enough fissile...

    Pretty sure their ICBM's are liquid fueled. Not sure about their short range ones. But otherwise yeah.

    North Korea goes full retard

    Long story short, we have no idea what the fuck would happen if North Korea were invaded. For all we know they'd nuke Seoul, gas Tokyo, and kick off a major regional war. It could be catastrophic.

    NHL 2012-13 - Half Season Thread

    I dunno, I don't think Volchenkov's hit is as bad as it looks. When you're about to give or take a hit you brace your elbows against your sides and push outwards as the hit is made. Looks to me like he was doing that, but Marchand's hesitation/slowing (and being a midget) before the hit screwed...

    Desktop Computers

    I don't think it's changed much for GPU's, it's slowed down a bit but not much. With CPU's though, single threaded performance increases have slowed down a ton in the past 5 or so years, and that's what most games still rely on.

    Hell, I'm still rocking a Q9550 on my desktop, albeit with an Nvidia 680. I don't tend to play bleeding edge games though. Stupid Steam back log.

    April Book of the Month: Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell

    That's pretty much it, and more or less what he states in that interview: natural ability and hard work are certainly important. But so are your circumstances. You're not going to be an "outlier" unless all of those factors come together. But just the same, even if you have the right...

    That might have been a flashback in the corn starch episode, to give background as to why he loses his shit when he drinks several gallons of pure sugar.

    huh. Personally I prefer Lullabies to Paralyze and Era Vulgaris. Songs for the Deaf was really good, but there was a handful of songs that just didn't do much for me whereas the other two I mention were pretty solid right through.

    No, it was corn starch with red die for fake blood when they were trying to frame whoever. I don't remember the exact plot. Or maybe I'm thinking of a different episode than you are.

    The forward can not pursue the puck, if they're all that concerned about it. Whereas a D doesn't really have much choice. Personally I'm fine with it, and think it's a good compromise between touch and no-touch (which I personally don't much like).

    April Book of the Month: Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell

    Fair enough. I looked in to that Chris Langan dude, and it's pretty interesting. I also found it hilarious that as smart as he is, he's a huge proponent of intelligent design. Like the saying goes, really smart people can believe in really stupid things.

    ...like clockwork. Queens of the stone age.

    Don't get me wrong, I like the song well enough, it's a good QOTSA song. But it strikes me as being one of their weaker singles. At least in terms of being catchy and infectious. I just can't see this getting nearly as much radio play as something like Little Sister. Regardless, I'm looking...

    Jurassic Park 3D

    No one knows how intelligent any dinosaur is, that's purely speculation. As far as size, yeah, they were only about 20-30 lbs. According to the Wiki link, they haven't even been found in Montana as depicted in the movie, but China/Mongolia. However they were supposedly modeled after another...

    I think the hybrid icing is a happy medium. That way you can still dump the puck deep if you think your teammate can get there first. Otherwise with no-touch icing it would just be automatically called back. The AHL went back to touch icing when the NHL started back up again, so both leagues...

    I wouldn't say I'm an "avid" golfer, but I enjoy it. I've played since I was 10 or so. Parents were members at a private course, and I played as a junior there for 3 summers. Probably played 20-30 rounds or tournaments a summer, but then I get fed up with some of the other little fuckers that...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    At major ski resorts that would result in lines a mile long at the big, fast lifts. Some of them have capacities upwards of 2-3,000 skiers an hour. If it's a ten minute wait, that's 500 skiers, or about 125 groups of 4. Assuming each group is spaced about 8 feet apart (skis are long), that's...

    On the topic of controllers, is there any trick to getting a PS3 controller's battery working again? I hardly use my PS3, and I must have let one of them sit with a low charge for too long, because now it won't charge. It works if I plug it in as a controller, but no matter how long it's plugged...
