    I just did a google search. That does look pretty cool. Reminds me a lot of the Hilton Waikiki Beach Village over on Oahu. Though the Wailea might have a better pool all around. Hilton just has a LOT of pools, some with slides, some just normal pools. There's probably fourteen on their...

    I'm still watching this Masou Gakuen HxH shit. It isn't great, but it isn't terrible either. That said, I don't find it titillating in the slightest, so no idea why I'm continuing to watch it. I haven't jerked off to animation since I was in high school. Anyway, it's not as good as Cross...

    What are your top 5 funniest movies?

    There's a little truth to that scene. When I was a kid, elementary school age, I used to draw nude women all the time. Sure enough, the teachers found out and asked my parents if they were nudists. No, I just had an active imagination. I didn't even know what sex was back then. I just liked...

    The best Udon out here is really inexpensive. It's right in Waikiki. Marukame Udon. I fucking love that place. I go with a normal hot noodle udon dish with meat, and a few pieces of tempora (prawn, sweet potato, etc.) and I'm around $8 out of pocket. It's delicious. EDIT: Google says that...

    What are your top 5 funniest movies?

    The humor of Superbad was among the best in my "adult" life. It wasn't slapstick. Just really fucking funny.

    Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (2016)

    Knight and Day. I actually liked that one. It was surprisingly good, where as I was expecting the typical "rom com" bullshit. I guess the fact that they didn't have a back to back poster was reason enough to believe it wasn't going to be shit.

    Kubo and the Two Strings (2016)

    I took my daughter to it after school today. We actually just got home. It was a pretty good movie, and the stop-motion animation was fantastic. My daughter is easily frightened, and said that she was scared of the witch every time they appeared. I had to "force" her to sit through the...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    I became good at in game macros, especially on my monk. Ended up making a macro that would click Flying Kick, shut off my auto attack, click beg, turn auto attack back on, then do sense heading. It allowed me to quickly level all of the skills that you don't routinely use. Maxed my sense...

    What classic childhood movie would you like to be bastardized and remade by current hollywood.

    After my daughter was born, my mom brought over a bunch of my old books so I could read them to her. One of them was a real shitty He-Man book. She loves it, we read it all the time. As far as Astro Boy, they did an animated movie in 2009. It wasn't bad.

    You know what. How about a live action format version of... I used to love this as a kid. Pretty sure I got the VHS tape from McDonald's when I was really young.

    Another thing that made this game great is all of the memorable experiences. There's a reason why threads like this (and emulator versions of the game) keep popping up. It was a significant game in a lot of peoples lives. We made a lot of both friends and enemies as a result.

    Absolutely. That could have easily been a "season finale" and I would have been happy with that. Regarding Gundam Build Fighters Try Island Wars... It was an anime. I was nice to revisit some of the characters that I like, but the story was pretty poor. Oh well. At least Orange was...

    Central PA, moving there.

    When it comes to Central PA, unfortunately there really isn't much to do. Gettysburg is the biggest draw. You could also go to where flight 900 went down during 9/11. I think they built a museum for it. I'd suggest visiting the Dunkin' Donuts, but it closed. I heard that story on O&J. It...

    Another good episode of Soma. It wasn't as great as the development episode 2 weeks ago, but it did set the stage nicely for an outclassed chef. And the surprise "sword" after the credits was a nice touch. Next week should be very entertaining.

    I would say definitely keep rental cars unlocked. However, people that live here lock their shit all the time. Every time you're walking through a parking lot and someone stops, you hear the distinctive "click" of the doors locking.

    Zika. The Abandon Florida Thread.

    Doing some quick math, the chart leads you to believe that "Very" is 10%, "Somewhat" is 0%, "Not Very" is 5%, and "Not at all" is 75%. Those chart skills are real good.

    The last Friday of every month, on a small pear next to Ala Moana Beach, they have a huge food festival. All of the gormet food trucks from the island get together and sell shit. They also have a theme to try and hit every month. In June, the theme was Bacon. In July, it was Barbecue. This...

    We usually visit japan once a year, just to see the family. Her parents have a comfortable house with 3 bedrooms, so we stay there while in Niigata. Hotels while in other areas. As far as dual citizenship, she has no interest in becoming an American citizen. And America (or maybe Japan?)...

    Even though we now live here, we still use the Oahu blue book. At least the phone app version. It's nice knowing right away which restaurants are worth avoiding.

    My wife is a nurse. Her new job is in the neurological floor at Queens Hospital in Honolulu. It's not usually a "crazy people" floor, but they do show up there periodically. Her typical patients are those with either seizures (there's all types, including ones that just make you violent), and...

    I just watched "The Whole Truth" staring Keanu Reeves and Renee Zellweger. What in the actual fuck? First up, appearances. Renee is supposed to be 46-47 right now. She looks mid 50's at least. Terrible. As far as the movie is concerned, it's a lawyer film. Think of it like watching The...

    Yes. I was a "favorite" for Wizards on Tarew Marr, because I outgeared everyone else. My resists were all in the 300 range, while still having a ton of health and mana. Well, all those resists meant shit. Constant attacks of Lure of Ice and Lure of Lightning kept resisting on my opponent...

    Sausage Party (2016)

    The very first word in the movie is "Shit" by Seth Rogan's hotdog character. I laughed a lot at this. Very enjoyable. Very silly. I can't imagine ever watching this on DVD, but it was fun seeing in the theater.
