    Home Improvement

    It's a combination interior/exterior (kind of). I'm in a town house, which is the suburbs way of saying Row Home. That wall (with cinder block immediately behind drywall and a 1x3) is what separates my neighbors house from my own. So yeah, there isn't much room to work. As far as a shoe...

    Good Anime Movies

    My wife and I watched this a few months back. The village that the girl and her kids moved to is very similar to the place in Yamagata that her grandparents live (They're farmers). We both really enjoyed the movie, and my wife cried at the end when a decision was made (that should be vague...

    Awesome, thanks. I'm glad I held off on buying this for as long as I did.

    I'll show you what she's accomplishing. Very very slowly. The issue is the front door opens up to where this coat rack is mounted, so it has to be extremely thin (like attached to the wall) or else it will interfere with the door. Here's what we had, and here's what she's started to work...

    Home Improvement

    My wife saw some design online for a "neat looking" coat rack that's attached to the wall. We've had a set of hooks right by our front door ever since we bought this house, but now she wants to change things up. I went ahead and took a picture of the old, and I'll get a picture of the new once...

    Fall 2014 Anime Thread

    Around what episode do you swap over, and what episode is it on FMA:B? That might be a good idea. Only thing I really didn't like about the original FMA was how long that stupid sun priest (dead bird) arc went. Why does a lame arc like that require 2 episodes? PASS!

    What was the crappiest computer that could run EQ 1999-2000?

    I remember that half way during classic, I upgraded the original audio card (maybe even onboard) to a new Sound Blaster. All of the sudden the game went from sounding like something from the NES to actually having instruments that you could hear. I was blown away by how much better the loading...

    Fall 2014 Anime Thread

    I felt that the Nina arc in the original FMA was a lot worse than it was in FMA:B. Maybe it's because I was expecting it in Brotherhood, but it seemed a little more rushed.

    Have any of you tried Call of Duty: Heroes? (Android... might be iOS too)

    I've heard that it pretty much is the same. I never played Clash of Clans, so can't comment on that, but at least I'm enjoying it.

    Have any of you tried Call of Duty: Heroes? (Android... might be iOS too)

    I hid information about a different game behind a spoiler wall. It's the other game that I play that told me about this game to begin with. Call of Duty: Heroes is a slight base building game, but it focuses more on attacking other peoples bases. There's also a single player campaign, if...

    Let's see what they actually come up with before we draw some conclusions about shrinking to dodge a punch. I'd wager that doesn't happen at all, but time will tell.

    My wife is a nurse, and she has many other foreign nurse co-workers. There's this girl from Eritrea, one of the many countries in Africa. She said that potty training happens incredibly quick over there because not every house has running water. Kids are in cotton clothing, and when they pee...

    Fuck yes they do. Look at how good the original Apocalypse Now was compared to the extended uncut version. That shit got really strange.

    Black Mirror(UK) Season 2

    I just watched this entire show. Season 1, 2 & Christmas special. What a complete mind fuck. My favorite episodes were the Christmas one followed by the very first episode where the politician had to fuck a pig. Really unique show, that's for sure. I hope they do a season 3 and don't axe...

    That's false. They didn't start dicking with his idea, but if they were going to foot the bill or at least allow him the use of their character, they insisted that it fit into their pre established universe in some way or another. Wright wasn't willing to budge on that. He wanted the story to...

    Ant Man is incredibly smart. More so than Banner... he just has no self confidence. I think they'll make that work for the sake of furthering the Marvel Universe.

    Tusk

    I enjoyed it, but there were definitely some fucked up moments. What bothered me the most is the very very end (after the big finale). That really left me with a strange feeling.

    Your Favorite Movie Theme Song

    My wife shows my daughter a bunch of the Ghibli Studios animated movies, and she loves My Neighbor Totoro. As a result, I always hear the theme song to that movie. It's stuck in my head. I whistle it at work and shit. EDIT: Actually, when I found this video on youtube, she heard it...

    The basis is they're a bunch of kids that more than likely have been bullied throughout their lives, so they're doing the only thing they possibly can do. The lowest form of "hacking" (one step above an AOL chatroom program).

    Wii U

    The solo games are great, but most offer multi player to spice it up even more. Super Mario 3D World Pikmin 3 Wonderful 101 Smash Bro's U Hell, the new Zelda game, which seems more like an MMO than anything else, is also a solo player game. You'll be fine.

    Spectre (2015)

    He's already signed for 1 more after Spectre. I remember a few years back he signed for like 4 additional pictures, but maybe more. I think they're trying to make him the longest running Bond actor. However, Roger Moore has 7 films under his belt, so Criag would need to make 3 more after...

    This isn't a Christmas movie at all, but back when the family used to go to my Grandmother's house for Christmas, she and I used to always watch a VHS of Forest Gump. Anyway, she moved out of that house and into a retirement community probably 4 years ago now. We haven't watched it since. For...
