    Deadpool 2 (2018)

    Deadpool talks to the audience. He constantly breaks the 4th wall. That's what Deadpool does, and this movie did it perfectly.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Not the software he made for the company. He does a lot of programs on his own, though.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I told him what you guys said about how it's detrimental to his resume to continue working for the company. He said that he still owns the software that he's written for himself personally that he can show to future employers. I don't know if that helps at all, but that's what he said anyway.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    It was his friend/co-worker that's trying to validate his own job that said it. The company primarily uses outside programmers from India and China or something for the majority of their software needs. They pay them a whopping $12/hour to program from distant lands. My friend is the only...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    The other issue with Ultron is that the countless "Ultron" robots in the film had the strength of Iron Man's many suits in IM3. IE - They were beaten in 1-2 hits. It was only the "main" Ultron that was a real threat.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Yet another update for my friend. It looks like even though they offered him a lot of money, HR hasn't officially approved his salary yet. As a result, he's in limbo. Working for his intern rate while waiting for the internship duration to expire. It seems that his friend that also works at...

    Rick and Morty

    Rick has a disinterest in virtually everything that Morty likes. He really shits on his day for them.

    Summer 2017 Anime Thread

    You're not kidding. They really ramped up the combat for this latest episode. The Elimination Chamber is under effect, and it's neat. I don't like how invincible Altair is though. She can't be touched by anything because of quickly spinning swords. That doesn't make sense. It works for the...

    Real Estate Agents - Anyone have this career?

    When I said cold calls, I don't technically mean getting on the phone and calling strangers. "Hi, want to sell your house?" Not at all, but it does mean putting out tons of mailers. Targeting the general population. People that you don't know, and making it catchy. You need to get your name...

    Real Estate Agents - Anyone have this career?

    I've been listening to a few audio books, and they're fascinating. I know this career is 100% about marketing, even if you're in the industry forever. You're reaching out to x many people who have never heard of you, just to give them a name to think about if something ever happens. Branding...

    Real Estate Agents - Anyone have this career?

    The opinions of most of you are "If you're new, just give up." Everyone in real estate that is experienced HAD TO START SOMEWHERE. They weren't born with a real estate license and 30-60 friends that buy and sell houses on the regular. I fully realize that this is a job that will take a lot of...

    I was balding. Well, I still would be if I grew my hair back. But as it stands, I've shaved my head for the last 6 years.

    And no feet. One thing I can say is that he was definitely an artist.

    I actually started the first day, but when I was level 5, I died and couldn't find my corpse, so I decided to remake my character.

    It very well could be an ego thing, but no matter what caused it, I feel for both of them.

    He looks good as cable. A+ on the eye. Especially without the typical star lines around it.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah, but that's like Mariana Trench levels of water. It's highly unlikely (from my years boating) that you have 1-12 inches of water followed by 25+ feet within a few feet away. As he was sinking you couldn't see the slope of the ground on either side. There was no ground in sight anywhere...

    Rick and Morty

    That was pretty fucked up. Watching pickle Rick tear through (in the most violent way possible) an army of rats followed by an army of Russians was pretty nuts. This show is just insane.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    His horse was running THROUGH the water. Then he gets knocked off his horse less than 3 feet from where it was running and suddenly the water is 25+ feet deep? What the fuck?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Holy shit, what a great episode! It had everything. Jon Snow showing Danae the children of the forest cave paintings, Arya being a badass, Bran being asperger as fuck. Danae riding a fucking dragon! Tyrion almost watching his brother get vaporized. It was a great god damn episode. Wow...

    The platinum wig chick was Mantis. She doesn't look asian because of the gold eyeshadow, but she is. IMDb says the entire cast of the video is: Dave Bautista Karen Gillan James Gunn Sean Gunn David Hasselhoff Pom Klementieff Zoe Saldana Guardians of the Galaxy: Inferno (Video 2017) - IMDb

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    I just realized that video actually has the cast of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 in it. I didn't notice it until the girl in the yellow dress. "That looks like Zoe Saldana." Then I saw Bautista & the girl that played Nebula. Neat.

    Real Estate Agents - Anyone have this career?

    I've lived in Hawaii a little over a year now, and I haven't seemed to find my niche. I've made friends with plenty of people out here, but haven't gotten my footing as far as a career goes. Ultimately, it lies on the fact that I don't want to go through school all over again (even though I...

    The "big monk" of our guild was Volx. He helped develop SEQ. Don't know if he posted on Monkly business at all.

    I remember Zeta from the uber Wizard cross-server chat when that became a thing. Lowkey was in there too, as was Frozboz. And someone from BotS, but I forget who that was. Shit, we had 1 name from each "big guild". Most of us were from graffe.com, though.

    Summer 2017 Anime Thread

    There's a new Gundam Build Figthers Battlelog series that started up today. I'm a little torn though. I absolutely LOVED seasons 1 and 2. Really good shows. But the new season introduces an artificial AI pilot. Meaning the Gunpla builders are no longer the one to fly their Gunpla. This...

    Electronic Dance Music

    I knew the song. I just didn't know the title to it. Or even the artist. Just one of those songs that I've heard a TON of times. The only reason I thought about it was I'm working with this 26 year old and he wanted to play techno songs, and I was bringing up some older shit for him also.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I guess. It's just hard to imagine the "top tier" elitest of elite content of old being soloed today without an issue. I guess the 15 years thing makes sense, though.
