I guess he won't be forced to drink a Bud Light Lime now.

Jesus, they're really reaching deep on these. Used to love that movie, though... That list is insane.

C.H.U.D. might be a good candidate. I feel like the only reason it's a cult classic is because of the big name actors (John Heard, Daniel Stern, and John Goodman in what I think wasn't even a speaking part) in such a campy movie.

Apparently I'm nerdier than I thought, because I was thinking the same things. I haven't worked in IT in about 5 years, but the things running through my mind were, they're copying files so the original server should still have them, the porn company should have backups so this is just an...

I think there was a discussion about that several weeks ago. Some are holding out hope that he'll just be written into another character, but personally stuff like that just makes me done with GRRM. The show is canon now, fuck the books. I'm not wasting my time reading hundreds of pages about a...

Fucking Nostradamus here. I don't quite understand what my agent is saying here (did escrow go down, or the assessor?), but yeah... "Your deed has been sent to XXX(county assessor) for recording. Escrow got it sent before their system went down. However, it has not recorded yet."

I have faith in you, Tarrant!

Ugh, don't even joke about that shit. 1 hour left until the county assessor is done with recordings for the day. Still haven't heard shit from the title company or my agent. What are the odds they fuck this up another day?

Ned's sword was melted down into two swords. One for Joff and the other for Jaime. Jaime gave his to Brienne.

Well, Hardhome was mentioned in the book...and Jon's convincing of the Wildlings happened. They were just combined in the show, and then throw in zombies and wights. They basically said fuck you to GRRM and made the story so much better. This season is going to finish off as one of the...

So yeah, that wassignificantlybetter than the books. Holy shit.

Streaming isn't quite up to par to replace HD content yet. It's definitely getting better in a hurry though. Lots of the NFL games last year were pretty crappy (240 or 360 maybe?), but the Stanley Cup Playoffs have been pretty damn good. My wife even asked me a week or two ago if I was watching...

Picasso must work for a title company. The absurdity continues. Our agent worked it out where we're essentially "renting" our own house over the weekend for $25/day. I feel like California is partially to blame for this.

Now for the Ducks to knock off the Hawks for the Stanley Cup the NHL doesn't want!

The completely competent escrow company sent my grant deed to the country assessor today. So I should have my keys today! Oh wait, they fucked up and forgot to date it. Maybe Monday. I guess on the plus side, it has to finish by next week because that's when our contract expires. This is all...

4. I left a message at 8, 10, and 11. Never got a returned phone call. Went on my lunch break around noon. One of those messages was with the secretary to have her call me back, so it wasn't like I was just leaving tons of voicemails.

This right here is why I don't think wormie will ever drop this argument. He doesn't see his escrow/title company as a customer service based business. To him, it's business to business exclusively.

Nah, fuck that. They're a business. They probably should've just shredded everything the second I called the first time. Out of spite, for not being patient with their "process." Oh, and kept the money we're paying them (about $1800, by the way, although I have no clue what they keep...

Yeah, I'm not sure where he got that from. I'm very cordial about pretty much everything during this process because I don't want to go pissing someone off. I showed up and asked to speak with the woman, because I hadn't been able to reach her. She gave me a bit of attitude about how busy she...

I think California is strange. We had a title and escrow company as well, and we signed all our loan paperwork with them. I've never even met my lender, but I've had to go to the escrow company a few times. Maybe this is why wormie is getting all spun up; in whatever state he lives in, going...

Sometimes I wonder how many of these fucked up scenes are based on perversions of things that actually happened to Louis CK. Like that weird shit with the flea market. That's gotta be based on some messed up day he had on the road.

You've got some serious issues. I'm not sure why you're getting so worked up about my situation. My entire point was it's ridiculous not to return someone's phone calls. And yes, "We have your paperwork but haven't had a chance to look at it yet. We'll get back with you later today (or...

He's good comic relief. Shit away millions of dollars for being an idiot.

I always wanted those sweet, sweet, video games. Edit: Apparently I was actually thinking about the show "Video Power" and not "Nick Arcade." It was like Supermarket Sweep, but with a video game store.

That's what I was thinking. I have no clue why they decided to call this Point Break. Had they just gone with an original title, it wouldn't get as much scrutiny. It'd likely still be a stupid movie, but by calling it a remake it's doing itself no favors. Outside of the character names, it...

Not watching this one, but that's some stellar sounding goal tending going on.

The funny part, to me at least, is that my actual agent has been awesome (although, worth whatever cut she's getting of the commission I'm not sure about). She's available damn near 24 hours a day, 7 days week. She's handled all sorts of shit that I wouldn't want to have to deal with. It's...

So you think it's acceptable to not return someone's phone call for an entire day? I didn't start demanding anything, I asked if I could talk with the person who wasn't returning my phone callsto set up an appointment in person. I can't think of anywhere I've EVER worked where it'd be...

It's amusing to me that people in real estate think that multitasking is an excuse for being worthless. I hate to break it to you, but most people juggle significantly larger amounts of projects and don't get to just use excuses of "Oh, I'm so busy." No, instead you just get fired for being...

Loan docs were sent to escrow today. Was calling them all fucking morning and they wouldn't answer or return my calls. So I said fuck it and drove to their office (where they didn't seem pleased to see me). Apparently they're so busy(?) that they won't be able to get us in until "hopefully"...

Culver's is awesome. Butter burger with fried cheese curds or onion rings, and then a cement mixer? Fuck yes.

Probably because episode 10 is the walk of shame. But all things considered, that's not very exciting.

That ended fast.

These playoffs are awesome. Fucking goal from behind the red line...lol.

He's a Bolton about as much as Jon is a Stark. Well, I guess technically slightly more since he's been legitimized.

Episode 7 was a much better bounce back. Laughed as hard at it as I did Silicon Valley.

It's been so long since I read the books, but I swear the leech shit was a TV only thing -- and it bothered me at the time that that was all it took to kill Renly, Balon, and Robb (well, not Balon since he's MIA from the TV show). It set a precedent that you could basically just leech your way...

Didn't want to start a new thread for this, but what do you do with old hardware? I don't want to turn it into some half assed PC to do something else with. I've got thismotherboardwith a Core 2 Duo E4500, a GeForce 8600GT, and a Radeon HD 4830. I've just had them sitting in boxes for years.
