    He is referring to real life personality traits based on people people on this board have met in person... from online.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    That one is a special case too. She's one of those self ascribed feminists who I've heard bitch about "patriarchy" in person on a regular basis. But I can ignore most things and she was otherwise fun to enjoy beer and whiskey with. Still had no problem doing shit like taking pictures of me naked...

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    Absolutely lost my shit when he makes fun of the math equations being blatantly wrong. "Women can't do math!"

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Interesting evening last night. So strange though I thought that there must be a full moon or some shit. Last night was hanging out with the lady and received a bunch of texts from some girl I banged a year ago awhile after the latina broke up with me out of the blue. Anyway she asks me a...

    I do not believe they have another buyer calling and begging for it in the area I am buying. Downtown Austin would be a different story. Any buyer they get will do the same thing as I do. Which is to go by Appraisal value. I do know the appraisal value. I do not think they have to disclose...

    My house deal may be in jeopardy due to idiot sellers. Appraisal value was quite a bit lower than their listing price. Which I was totally cool with paying. Seems to be the sellers have already spent the money they thought would get and are now demanding the difference and don't seem willing...

    Colony

    Again. Qualye and Brussard are interesting characters. Along with Schneider (sp?). They need to solve the wife situation because with her undermining every single plot point makes the show worse. Not sure what to think now that the husband knows wife is involved as a matter of fact. I want to...

    The 100

    City of Light story line is actually quite inventive now. I didn't expect it to go this route. But I am curious as to why an AI (Skynet, whatever) would nuke all of the world. When it relies on the same infrastructure we do to do anything. Kill order vs Sky Crew is a good thing. Titus is an...

    I know its a stupid article that you probably read before but this broad has done exactly what you are intending to do. Woman becomes Voice Over Success on Fiverr Why not just do that until it picks up steam? I too have become kind of bored with Corporate Life and started taking on more...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    God damn. Had to uinstall SQL Server 2014, just to reinstall SQL Server 2014 because my version didn't have a feature I absolutely needed and couldn't be amended to my standard edition. Lesson learned I guess!

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I've been doing nothing but unfucking poorly maintained databases. Shit like years of employees putting in duplicate entries of customers, mispelling them and entering them again. Using the wrong fields for various things. Applications that don't seem to enforce any kind of data formatting. So...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I habitually sleep 4 hours a night and live alone without a wife and kids or other things to suck up my time. That being said, I have inordinate amounts of time to fill with... stuff. It was surprisingly easy to look for (and find) this kind of work. I don't have any particular specialty at the...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    So, after reading about Cad's former life as a Tech consultant and how well it went... while also having too much free time during the week with my current job. I was able to secure some work as a consultant on the side doing database stuff. Mostly correcting people's shitty/poorly managed...

    The 100

    I can just see it now. Next episode Pike and Friends are going to rage at the death of their redshirt on their mission to murder an entire village who did nothing to them. Pike will say, "Look what these Grounder worms did! They're KILLING US! They are the enemy don't you see that!?"

    ...I just, I can't even. What the fuck is going on with this shit? Pike and Co get the message that blood will not lead to blood from Lexa. So the interpretation is that they can kill indiscriminately? For land to farm on rather than just asking the Grounders (who survive in the millions) how...

    Hearthstone

    I kind of agree. I really dislike how bursty the game currently is. Dying a 20hp in a single turn is not uncommon. But the light of hope here is that Blizzard (if Explorer and TGT are any indicator) understand that charge, burst, stickiness are generally shitty mechanics and they should shy away...

    They've just written themselves into a corner with the Sky Crew. There is, fundamentally, a low number of Sky Crew and there is no way to create more of them organically without doing something stupid. While you CAN organically say there are tons more grounders at any given point. Adding 11...

    Yeah, really have to say I am disappointed in the current situation. It is stupid as fuck. Okay, the Sky Crew as it were is a knowingly small amount of people. Everyone knows this. The Grounder Coalition has millions of fucking people. Even Mt. Weather didn't attack the grounder nation as a...

    Deadpool (2016)

    Is that like a recorded [private] phone call of his or something? Because if so, Reynolds just went up in my fucking book. He talks like that in normal conversations off the cuff? Priceless.

    No but it just falls into the trope then. Just to... LOTR-y to have an "epic final battle."

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There's kinda two ways it could go. Either A.) Typical fantasy trope of a mighty battle of Fire and Ice. Which would be fucking stupid as its the precise thing that the series subverted and became popular for. Or B.) Subversion and a treaty/alliance is renewed between Ice and Fire. Which is...

    Well, this place isn't a condo really, just in name. And if you think you can find a non HOA house in the Austin Metro area for under $500k, good fucking luck. Like I said, it is a condo in name only. HOA/Condo fee is $35/mo same as most of the others in this area.

    Pretty sure I found the one. Will know today. Is a sort of "diamond in the rough" type of home. But it is an interesting situation, house is not a fixer upper, but people didn't see it for what it was. I've lost four offers in the North Austin area in the past few weeks on listings sold in under...

    I like this show quite a bit. But its going to become increasingly stupid with the wife becoming more and more involved in the Insurgency and the husband more and more involved in the government search for the insurgency and him never finding out. Like really, the blonde girl working with him is...

    Are you intentionally "farming" shit on the Avenger Defense mission? Once I knew the location of the beacon. 3x Rocket Launchers just took it out and I left. Didn't even take 4 turns.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    In a similar vein. Some years ago at university I gave this grad student I was fucking shit about how awesome her scam of a research grant was. As they argued how they had to study stalagmites for climate research. But these stalagmites had to be in a cave on an island called Mallorca in Spain...

    The first one wasn't so terrible. But this one looks awesome. Technodrome, Krang, badass Turtle Van, Rock and Bebop that look awesome. I don't even care how objectively dumb it will be (insert Michael Bay hate).

    How did you manage 5 shredder cannons? Elerium Cores do come a lot slower and I've had to ration them pretty siginificantly. I stopped making heavy weapons after I kept getting fucking flamethrowers. I have 2 EXO, 1 WAR, 1 Wraith, 1 Spider and that's been fine the whole game for me. Also...

    Going to start Ironman again now that I have a firm grasp of the game. So far all of the Experimental Ammos I've gottan have been really useful. Way moreso than the other Experimental shit I made. Rocket Launcher seems to be the most useful heavy weapon just because of its infinite range. Acid...
