    Don't listen to that fork-tongued devil Springbok. Go WITH the grain and root for OU! You will find that the majority of non-college Oklahoma graduates root for OU so there will always be people for you to chat with. Most will not have all of their teeth. Also, your wardrobe will thank you...

    Yep, just increase the clock speed and RAM while trying to decrease weight.

    Halt and Catch Fire

    I actually like the ending because if it isn't renewed we have closure for our main characters. Gordon is in over his head since he doesn't have an idea creator or innovator, Cameron is using her genius to forge into the future, and Joe is just trying to not go mental and enjoy life. It also...

    Had two Wendy's spicy chicken sandwiches today. I was not impressed. I like Wendy's but it just doesn't stand up to the likes of BK, Wataburger, or McDonalds to me.

    The Leftovers

    Let me start this out by saying that I hated how lost ended and it made me angry how they explained all of the islands mysteries. I didn't even want to watch this show. Having said that, my wife and I like it. The acting is good and the characters are interesting. I am not looking for them...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Hasbro's brief includes Rage as a direct copy of Bushido. Legally it doesn't even matter if they are not groundbreaking. Numerous rulings have shown that you cannot patent or trademark board/card/video game mechanics and Hex does not copy any names over so copyright is out the window. That...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    How is it going to look to the court when Hasbro's attorney argues those mechanics are stolen just to have the Crypto lawyer stand up and show them how they are entirely different? Is the court going to assume that Hasbro didn't do their homework? That would seem to strike right to the heart...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    I thought the same thing when I bought in; that it was going to be MtGO except cheaper and better. Then I started playing the game. Champions, Threshold, permanent card effects; they all make the game play differently. Legally, however, none of that matters. What matters is if Hex violated...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    The absolute best parts of the amended complaint were: 1.) The assertion of copyright in cards that are similar when copyright in board/card/video games has been (up to this point) strictly defined as complete and wholesale copying of art and words together. 2.) The continued use of the...

    McD was my first job at 16. I learned not to judge people by what they look like (some of those fuckers looked SCARY, but ended up being great people) AND that all of those stories you heard about how awful the food preparation was were a load of shit. To this day people will ask me if I eat...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It's actually 5.940 Million in pounds sterling. The exchange rate is hovering around 1.7 USD to 1 GPB. Still crazy, but not the 3.3 USD to 1 GPB ratio you have. I'm not trying to be an ass, I have had to study up on the exchange rate since I'm going to be trying to import board games to the...

    I think it is just getting further away from college for me. I remember not understanding why OU and Texas fans hated each other until I went to OU/TX weekend as a freshman. I had on my OU shirt at the hotel and the first UT fan I saw was another college age dude that walked up and yelled...

    Fuck that, Florida State is GOOD. I hope you beat them, it makes our conference look better. Then I hope we beat you. The only team I hope loses every game is A&M, because fuck those guys.

    God Damnit, my wife and I stopped in ATL a few years ago and I had just seen the MvF about Vortex. We went there and I got really excited about the Bypass (has grilled chesse sandwiches as buns, right?) but ended up going with the Spanish Fly burger. It was good, but I will always regret not...

    This is me and any bag of chips. I am not really big on sweets or desserts, but if you set a bag of chips in front of me I will eat half the bag because it is so easy to reach in and grab another one. God forbid they are Cheetos, Cool Ranch Doritos, or Chili-Cheese Fritos becuase then I will...

    I just don't know if I can watch it. I went into the first book with the intent to read the entire series and stopped after the first one because I found the world he was building to be uninteresting. I watched the first episode of the show intending to make it a weekly watch but the more I...

    How many steps are there above Five Guys for burgers? 1 step above is a $8-$12 gormet burger? 2 steps above is a $13-$18 dollar exotic meat burger? 3 steps above is adding other shit to the burger that is expensive i.e. foie gras? I guess whta I'm saying is that if it was 1 step above Five...

    After watching Pacific Rim and then The Strain, I just think Del Toro would make it too campy. It doesn't need to be pretty, or have this huge budget for special effects. It needs to have the mood of The Thing or Event Horizon. It needs a moody atmosphere of being part of an exploration team...

    I will add to what Slaythe said by asking who you wanted besides Pau that makes this team immediately much better? I wanted Mike Miller but I think Morrow is near his level and will open up the court just as well. Beyond that I feel like the best way for this team to get better is for the young...

    The only one of those 3 that matters was Fisher, and he didn't leave for another team. I like that this pretty much forces Brooks to play a ton of Lamb and Adams early and often.

    It's a good jab, but Mark Cuban's team will be better than his this year and they have a recent title. I'm no Mavs fan, but they have the scoreboard on the Rockets at this point.

    It is fun for me, an Oklahoma transplant living in Houston, to listen to the sports talk shows and thier predictions on what happens now. They were all bitching and complaining about how bad Jeremy Lin sucked and how awful his contract is (I agree, it was awful); however, he was a servicable...

    I'm just happy we signed an aggressive 3 point shooter who isn't afraid to take a shot in crunch time. I bet I like him way more than Thabo (especially the Thabo that couldn't play D). Now I'm just crossing my fingers that they either don't sign Caron Butler back or someone kick's Scott Brooks...
