    Ok, so dumb question #2: how do you go about evaluating a fund with a high(er than an index fund) operating expense? A lot of them report 5 and 10 year performances that put their return above 7% after subtracting the operating expense, which is I think the average rate of return for an index...

    What's the next best option if your company's 401k plan doesn't offer an index fund? Since learning what an 'operating expense' percentage actually means, I'm offended at what's offered. Should I just pick the best funds sorted by history of performance - operating expense?

    Let's see, 150 calories deficit for 30 days is 4500 calories, one pound of fat is 3500 calories...given margin of error, that actually sounds correct. Like Itlan said, you're going to need to give us more information.

    I don't understand the concept of splitting some remaining amount of joint money or paycheck(s). If you can't justify what you spend such that you need to label the money as off limits, couldn't that be construed as a trust issue? What if something major and unexpected comes up(car repair, kid...

    Borderlands 2

    Triptych did Scarlett and Hammerlock, big surprise that those are the worst of the DLC. Different company did Torgue, and that was a decent DLC. Can't find any info if Tiny Tina was farmed out, but it's definitely the best so far. So, grats Gearbox on making customers doubt the quality of the...

    A friend wouldn't have filed that report. Or would have at least told Kirk beforehand. Spock had to have known what that meeting with Pike was going to be about. But nope, no warning at all! Not even some speculation about the possible ass reaming Kirk was gleefully walking into. For how...

    If you don't mind debating those points, how was it explained that they are friends and why they are dating? I mean, as characters, not because the script says so. Spock is an angry douchebag and Kirk is a college fratboy, why should they be friends? And I'm not sure if Uhura is even a fully...

    Why? Just watched this a couple nights ago and I guess I can't turn my mind off, but plot holes and inconsistencies and references and bad writing and fanjobs everywhere! Ruined the movie for me. Is the bar so low for action movies that any semblance of a plot gets a pass? Which is a shame...

    I think I am too. It's easy to see how the game plays out once you get to a certain point. And some of the roadblocks the game throws your way can be really frustrating. 10 years to integrate after vassalizing(can't you can't integrate anyone else in that same time period). 50 years to...

    I'm not defending the rmah. I would ultimately prefer it removed for many of the reasons you listed. But for the reasons Amadeus listed, advocating removing both AHs in favor of trading, he's wrong. Can I get those dicks in a bowl?

    Because you weren't doing a great job of hooking me into reading your article. Don't worry, it's nothing personal, I skip lithose's posts sometimes too. So if i understand you correctly, the rmah is devaluing your perceived value of farming? To which I respond as before: the same would have...

    The blue cheese would cover up the jack cheese even more. Might as well just make a blue cheese sauce. I do agree, cheddar and blue would be conflicting. Cheddar cheese sauce is possible, that + elbows and you've basically got mac and cheese. You can't add too much at once or it "breaks"...

    Same would have happened via trading, just would have taken longer. Either way, it looks like they're attempting to fix the problem without the hamfisted "fix" of outright removal of the AHs.

    Nah. Not until you convince me it has anything to do with what we're talking about. RMAH, gold AH, and trading all shortcut the "true" method of discovering items: farming.

    Not one, but two jack cheeses! In a carefully tuned 3:2 ratio too! Do yourself a favor and toss the jack cheese and replace it with good sharp cheddar. That way you'll actually taste the damn cheese. Jack cheese, the iceberg lettuce of the cheese world. And here's where I complain...

    Gameplay is not the same between level 40 and level 60. I mean, you should have said paragon 1 and paragon 90, but you still would have been wrong. Inherent to farming is that you'll pick up gear along the way that will change how you play. Now, that doesn't work out for all classes, but for...
