    The Martian (2015)

    Yeah, my theater was mostly empty as well. I arrived an hour early, and for the first 15 minutes, I was the only person in the theater. After all was said and done, around 35 total in a theater that can hold a few hundred. Really a poor showing, but that definitely didn't take away from the...

    Concussion - Will Smith as a Nigerian Doctor against the NFL.

    I saw this trailer before The Martian. Movie looks interesting enough. The trailer gives me a "Seven Pounds" kind of vibe.

    Did you watch the pre-aired first episode? It was decent. Very "Godzilla" style.

    I wasn't upset by the event. I know shit happens, and it'll happen her entire life. This was just the first time she's ever cried over what another child told her. I felt bad for her, but I understand that's part of life. So I told her a way to make it not matter what other people say so she...

    The Martian (2015)

    Ok, wow. That movie was excellent. I can't stress that enough. I'm not going to spoil anything. The movie was longer than expected. Probably around 2 hours and 10 minutes. That isn't an exact, but the previews started at 8pm, and the movie finally ended at 10:47pm. For the record, there...

    I paid $18 for an RPX ticket for the first showing tonight. They also game me a patch I'll never use. Neat? Pic of patch in spoiler tag.

    Good point, I forgot about that thread. Well, I only wanted to see that one because it might be interesting. I enjoyed the Anime, but I can download the two movies and watch them on my PC. I decided to go to an RPX showing of The Martian instead. That looks like a better movie, anyway.

    My daughter is half Asian. 50% mixture of european countries, 50% japanese. But she's polite, just because I tell her to be. She's also very sensitive, which I'm trying to get her away from being. Ugh.

    I don't actually think there are any black kids that go to this preschool. I could be wrong, but I haven't seen any. Not that it really matters. There's a few asian kids. She's one of them, so there's that. Also an indian kid. The rest are white.

    So my wife, daughter and I were going to take our first cruise. We looked it over and found one we really wanted to take. It was going to be a great time. My wife's parents are recently retired, and they're traveling all over the world. I thought it might be a good idea to ask if they would...

    So yesterday was the weekly Show and Tell for my daughter's class in Preschool. She brought her favorite stuffed animal, "Puppy", that she sleeps with every night. It's definitely a comfort thing. Anyway, some other girl in her class said it was stupid, so after being so happy to bring it...

    You don't know the layout of my house. Yes, it was still technically a 3rd bedroom, but I had my washer and dryer sitting in the closet. That took up all of the closet space, making it not a closet at all. I was asked to take the washer and dryer downstairs in order to open that closet back...

    My local theater is playing Part 1 of Attack on Titan tonight and tomorrow night. $10.50 for a ticket. I'm definitely going tomorrow. It's doing Part 2 next week. This should be fun, and I'll get to see other nerds while I'm there.

    Palum, putting the washer and dryer back in the basement is a no brainer. I have converted my 3rd bedroom into my wife's office and the laundry room. Up on the 2nd floor for ease of use. However, the housing market would rather see a 3rd bedroom than a 2 bedroom house. Especially when it...

    Oh, Gangsta is over? It was only episode 12, so I figured there was 1 more to go after this. It didn't really feel like an end episode.

    Last 3 in December. It's because it was so late coming out. It would throw off the other show they have scheduled for the same time slot starting next week.

    So my final conclusion of Arslan is that it was a really good series. I enjoyed it from start to finish. Even if it didn't have the "Oh, that's awesome" moments of Overlord or Shokugeki no Souma, it was still a very good show. If I had to describe it to a non watcher, I would say that it's...

    The 3 Chysa mentioned are my favorite 3 as well, although I look forward to them in different orders. Gate, Shokugeki no Souma, Overlord. I'd put Arslan as my #4 though. I really like that show. Gate's an awesome series, as is Souma. Overlord is very OP I can't be beaten, which is fun...

    It looks like they did a pre-airing of the first episode of One Punch Man. I gotta say, it was pretty good. Yes, it's a monster show not unlike Godzilla, but it was amusing anyway. Will watch. NT [AE] One-Punch Man - 01 [Preair] [720p].mp4

    It's not that it's a great deal for square footage. And it's not really a fix up type of house. It's just that I'm incredibly impressed with the structure of the house. It's built VERY well. Aside from that, it would be incredibly easy for me to work on to do all kinds of crazy shit in the...
