    Yeah, unfortunately the area I live in is pretty small and there isn't much. We'll see if anything comes up in the next few months though.

    Anyone got any good recommendations for a game to play with my wife, who is not a gamer at all? Stardew kind of looks like something that might be close, but a little boring. I picked up Subnautica during the sale and if that had coop, it might be decent.

    I honestly don't remember any of the games at this point. Feel free to pick whatever and tell me how shit I am.Gravel - YASP I'll admit some of these games I played like crap (that PL game for instance, where I never used my diffusal for Omni ult). I think what Cyni says is a big problem I...

    Despite my MMR, I'm not retarded. And that's what annoys me, is that everyone wants to offer advice tailored to someone who doesn't get basic fundamentals. There's a serious misunderstanding about what's going on at this MMR. Just to cherry pick from my last 10 matches, I can farm just fine...

    Can't be worse than the shit I've been grouped up with lately. Last match was like 800 MMR average for some reason, and half my team was afk...so I got another -25! Wonderful. I'm getting really sick of this fucking game. I've won 2 of my last 11 because I've been paired up with functional...

    I haven't played since 6/2014, but it looks like a completely different game now. It was kind of shit when I first played it (apparently I only made it 14 minutes). Let me know if you buy it and it's worthwhile.

    Yes, but I don't recommend going, unless you really like old naked fat people. Luckily that beach is split in half; go right for the nude beach, left for the non-nude.

    The people who say you can carry your team if you're actually better than the enemy are full of shit. Just had a Jugg who at 30 min had phase boots and mask of madness, and an Ench with midas and solar crest. How do you have midas and literally no items to go with it? And how is it possible...

    Probably co-op bot games would be your best bet, but even then, you might get flamed. If there were more Rerolled members who played, I'd suggest that, but I haven't played with anyone from here since sometime last year.

    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    Is he actually on a roster right now? A 4 game ban seems kind of unnecessary as I don't see any teams actually signing him. His NFL career is over.

    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    I can't really blame them for that one. Plenty of teams take a chance on what would have been a first rounder who had an injury. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't. I guess they could have waited another round, but if your team doctor who performed the surgery gave the okay, I don't...

    I hope for the Colts that he actually starts playing well. The thing I don't like about these contracts is it's setting a ridiculous standard for contracts at the respective positions. The Redskins are fucked with Cousins if he plays well this season.

    Timber is definitely getting nerfed next patch. It's kind of ridiculous how tanky he is right now.

    Yeah, I agree. I'm really glad they introduced the Richard character, as he fucking kills me in literally every scene he's in. Plus, the play off him with Jon*h is hilarious. It turns him from the insufferable punching bag of everyone else, into an actually funny character.

    DOTA 2

    I think Alliance is doing it! My predictions have been shit though. I think it's cause I didn't realize the #1 team from the matchups would be an auto entry, and the bracket is for #2 and wildcard. I would have altered my predictions a bit if I knew wtf was going on.

    HO-LE-SHIT. I have no idea how Alliance pulled that out. They were getting their shit kicked in all game. TB too strong.

    I'm quite happy with it. We spent a bit more than we wanted (probably about $3500; our aim was $3000), but I think it was worth it (included stuff like the landmine, matador, and kettlebells). I have had to change my routine a bit, as mentioned a few times, to accommodate the "lack" of...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There was literally a line in episode 8 or 9 where Cersei and Qyburn are talking about it. It was obviously moved from the Mad King's caches to under the Sept for this very occasion.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Haven't read all the posts, but damn what an episode. I liked their version of Frey Pies better. From the opening sequence I knew this would be an awesome episode. My only complaint is they STILL didn't fucking resolve the R + L = J shit. I mean, we all know it at this point, just let it out.

    Alright, so my gym is basically done. I would still like some dumbbells, but they're just so prohibitively expensive. For now, I think kettlebells are a good substitute. I want to buy a 20, 30, 40, 45, and 50 pound kettlebell still. I'd also like to get another set or two of 45 pound plates...

    Picked Alliance as the 1/2 in the Compendium. I think they're good as long as Secret can beat Empire. Speaking of, I'm kind of surprised by Secret. I've basically written them off, but they seem to be playing pretty well.

    People who don't live out here think people care about earthquakes. No one cares about earthquakes. Fires and drought are the only disasters that matter. It'd be like asking if people in Florida are worried about a tsunami that wipes out the coast. Yeah, it could probably happen, but it's...

    Not technically weather, but this fire at Lake Isabella (Erskine fire) is insane. Yesterday it was at 30,000 acres and 5% contained. It's still showing the same, but I've got to imagine it's spread quite a bit more. I think it's on day 3 now? This is from the first night:

    Hardcore Henry (2015)

    The plot was kind of bizarre, and I want to say shitty. But as an action movie, it was A+. I will say the ending was definitely unique. The soundtrack, however...man, they fucking nailed that. The Queen at the end (which I want to say they used for the trailer) gave me goosebumps.

    "Yeah, but what about Terminators?" It's actually that Jack is a typical CEO. He's beholden to his shareholders, and the only thing that matters is that you're showing profit quarter to quarter. The box does that, the platform doesn't. He's an amazing CEO, but he's not a visionary. I think the...

    Yeah, I'm looking to get rid of a QB. I have Brady and Cousins, and only one spot. Brady I still think is the better player and should be solid. He's somehow ranked #4 damn near everywhere I look, despite the fact that he'll miss 1/4 of the season. Cousins had a monster year last year...

    I've tried quite a few brands, and so far Cellucor is the best tasting for the price. It's a bit expensive, but they generally have good deals (You just missed a buy one get one 4 lb tub. Worked out to about $53 for 8 pounds shipped). Then again, I've never tried their vanilla. Cinnamon...
