    College Football 2020-2021 Season and the Covid-19 Bowl

    I was just coming here to ask @Foggy if Sad Jordan Longhorn was the perfect avatar for this hire.

    The Big Short (2015)

    The criminal part of the 2008 crisis was that it was set up in large part by the federal government for decades prior with its constant push to lower lending standards and followed up by the same morons enacting Dodd-Frank to punish the market for doing what markets do best. So the government...

    College Football 2020-2021 Season and the Covid-19 Bowl

    And this one was in a conference all season, didn't win it, and still got the benefit of the doubt.

    College Football 2020-2021 Season and the Covid-19 Bowl

    Having the domers get obliterated by Bama and keeping the best ATM team in twenty years out of the playoffs is delicious. Also, the Aggies didn't deserve it because they didn't win their division, let alone their conference.

    2020 GOTY

    Cyberpunk and Hades are a tie for me. I have spent so much time on each one but they are so different that I cannot really compare them to each other.

    College Football 2020-2021 Season and the Covid-19 Bowl

    Not even the best win of our 2020 season. I know you are angry that your best team since the NC was a 4 loss dud, but maybe you should blame it on your shitty coach for not preparing his team and then embarrassing you whole school with his comments after getting his ass blasted and costing his...

    It doesn't count if you don't have some of your players.

    College Football 2020-2021 Season and the Covid-19 Bowl

    Your receiving core gave up 400+ yards of rushing? I get it, though. It didn't mean anything to your team so they just didn't care. It is the staple of an SEC non-playoff loss.

    College Football 2020-2021 Season and the Covid-19 Bowl

    Glad the second place team in the SEC finally got to see a real defense. I wish the Big XII could have teams get to the title game without really playing anyone decent.

    Sounds like the streaming industry just needs a goblin-esque gatekeeper deciding who gets the popular streams based in how many times they watched him crank it in a bathrobe.

    Twitch.tv

    This is dumb, there are a ton of people that don't consider small time entertainment a real job. Open mic nights, grinding the clubs, and free gig players have been told to get a real job since the 50s. Plus, it is a fucking homeless person so I hope the irony is not lost on all of you...

    Twitch.tv

    This is just another example of an ancient industry that doesn't understand that they are hurting their own bottom line. No one goes to a game streamers channel for the music; they may like it but it is the streaming content they come to watch. In fact, the streamers are more likely to drive...

    Schitt's Creek

    Alexis is arguably the character that grows the most. Not only does she turn down all of the safe options of help to bet on herself being able to succeed on her own; she is also the only character that ends the pretense of not showing her true feelings for her family by seeking each one out...

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    I thought It Comes At Night was pretty damn good. If you are a parent the ending is devastating; if not it is just brutal.

    Path of Exile

    See, this makes too much sense. It gets rid of the tedium and leaves the meat of the mechanic. But when has that ever been the route that GGG takes? They seem to think that accessing the fun part of content needs to be painful and slow.

    College Football 2020-2021 Season and the Covid-19 Bowl

    Well, at least one team in the game has an actual defense.

    Path of Exile

    Man, if they include syndicate, metamorph, harvest, and delve leaguestones it would be awesome. We could actually choose what content we wanted to farm from all of the bloat and focus on the things we enjoy. Which means it wont happen. All of the old leagues will have stones and the new shit...

    My god the defense in the SEC has been fucking atrocious this year. Good thing we play real football in the Big XII instead of these glorified arena league games.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    She took down Chronicles of Riddick a few notches too. Her scream when Riddick kills the baddie instead of Karl Urban is the stuff of B movie slasher flicks....and not in the good way.

    Path of Exile

    Experimental base types, hundreds of new gems...... for a game that keeps having issues because of bloat they sure pick the wrong things to take core. It is almost enough to stop playing.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    See, that whole blog makes me feel better about the game. It still looks exactly like D3, but I like the stat choices and how weapons affect skills.

    Houston, moving there.

    He is where 45, 10, and 288 all meet downtown so he couldlive almost anywhere and be one highway away from a straight shot in. You might try Katy North of I-10, Webster, Stafford, or League City. They will all have their older and newer parts and you can find some cool newer districts close to...

    Houston, moving there.

    Yeah, Pearland doesn't really have any good access to I-10 that doesn't involve 610 or the Beltway. Can you give us a cross street close to the office for a better idea of routes? Also, what kind of community are you looking for? New, old, masters planned, acerage, good schools matter? If you...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    So he would be the current Batman but not the 'real' Batman? His dad was rich which means he would have grown up in elite society. If his background is the same but there is no murdered parent motivation what makes it special that he is black?

    The Undoing

    I hated it because everything but the story was top notch. Acting, atmosphere, tone, and pacing were all good. @Lenas is exactly right; there were no twists or turns, just red herrings that were never really dwelled upon except to drive an episode forward or leave one as a cliffhanger. The...

    Cheddar's is the only chain in OK or TX that still has the Monte Cristo on the menu. I force my wife to eat there once a year so I can regret fucking up that deep fried monstrosity with Raspberry preserves for two weeks.

    Him calling Diablo 'DIE-ablo' more than once made me want to punch him. I bet he pronounces gif with the 'j' sound too. Having said that, it looks great.

    The Umbrella Academy

    The love of his life dies in his arms in season 1. In season 2 he has a chance to make sure that doesn't happen but that means the two of them never have a relationship. He shows character growth by denying his selfish side and trying to save the person he loves. That story line is as old as...

    The Umbrella Academy

    Imagine needing so much attention that being a star in multiple cult classic films and then the focus of a massively popular streaming show isn't enough to fulfill that void.
