    Hannibal

    So what does it take for Will and Jack to stop having dinner with Hannibal? Cooking with Hannibal show would be awesome though. Any scene where he cooks is especially mesmerizing.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    One thing that always escaped me in ADWD. Why did Cersei want Osney Kettleblack (whichever loser was the one arrested by The Faith) to eventually take the black and kill Jon Snow. Was she in on the Fake-Arya thing at all? Did I miss that completely?

    I don't think that will stray so far from the books to kill off Chilton like that.

    I never even once said I was against ACA. I just said that I have no use for it and would never use it unless I was legally forced. I'm happy its helping people, whatever. Why am I the enemy for being happy with what I have? I tend to keep to myself. Your problems are your problems man. My...

    I don't see how employer insurance is magically a different kind of insurance that shouldn't be compared to others when there is an employer mandate within the ACA itself. Also, PEC is not really a benefit to those of us who have always had insurance in the fist place. A marginal benefit at best.

    Why is this a problem? We are talking about ACA being beneficial for everyone. I have no problems with ACA, but I also have utterly no reason to use it unless forced to do so.

    You people are pretty demanding. My insurance is handled by Fidelity/Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan/Delta Dental. Is it honestly so difficult to believe that there are different insurance plans out there? ACA is all well and good but it is certainly dicking over some people who would have...

    I am quite indifferent to Obamacare. My current employer's plan is far superior to anything they offer and significantly cheaper ($42/mo including dental/no deductible and HSA compared to $168 a month and a deductible of like $5k). I would never switch unless legally forced to do so. But if it...

    Hannibal

    So this show is pretty good and I do like watching it. But the narrative is getting legitimately annoying. Two people helping Will have been killed off... even the stupidest fucking detective could see that there is some merit in what he's saying. But no, its the copycat... there's always a copycat.

    X-Men: Days of Future Past.

    I felt that the Watchmen was great for what it was. If you had read it beforehand it was fantastic. It has all the broad strokes, but the subtleties of the source material would not translate well. Still has excellent cinematography barring the fucktarded sex scene between Night Owl and Silk...

    True Detective

    I'm not too big on following symbolism and the super subtle things of the show. But there is a recurring theme about the "Detective's Curse." Which is essentially the same as not being able to see the forest for the trees so to speak. He is so "involved" in this case/whatever that he was unable...

    Homebrewing

    I wasn't entirely sure where the best place to put this would be. But I felt that it would be best to have it here. I'm an avid homebrewer and make about 15 gallons every quarter. Mostly different kinds of IPA. If there are any other homebrewers about. I'd figure we should start a thread.

    I am really looking forward to this. I also love the $40 price point. I'm usually very hesitant to buy the $60 titles. But I'll throw down forty anytime. I am a bit worried since they haven't said anything about the final classes and they're supposed to release this month though.

    South Park Stick of Truth

    The direct2play site mentioned a few pages back still has it at $38. I wouldn't have bought it at $60, but $38 sure.

    The Back to School Thread

    It was 30 hours total. Three classes for two semesters, one in the summer. Two for one semester and only one for the final semester so I could finish the project without any interference. They would have paid for an MBA, Statistics degree, etc. I thought about getting the MBA, but I always...

    To answer the question a few pages back. I recently finished a Masters program while working full time as a software developer. I only got it because work paid for all of it. I got a Masters in Software Engineering. I don't think a single one of the projects truly challenged by abilities. But...

    Wingsofdeath is one of the better streamers as far as explaining his decisions. Really helped me think about things better. If you want to Learn, Nightblue3 and Wingsofdeath are some of the best.

    League Of Legends

    The struggle is real. I've never really cared about ranked too much. But I have found that you can indeed fall back down a division. I've floated around 55-60% win rate for the majority of my time playing league. After I hit Gold V (I was Gold II/I last season) I just tanked. Back to Silver I...

    League Of Legends

    Well I can't seem to break this losing streak. Longest I have ever been on (10+). I play my best champions (Leona/Thresh/Udyr/Elise) and every game. Something catastrophic happens. Sometimes I do badly, sure. But DC's, terrible engagements and every other factor. May be time to take a week...

    Heroes of the Storm

    I've watched a few games here and there now and here are my thoughts. I didn't like that the opposing team CANNOT cross your little turret gate thing at all. This makes for less interesting "jungle" type plays. The game is focused around competing for objectives. So, if you play League...

    League Of Legends

    Since I started jungling a few days ago. The vision changes are a thing of beauty. Since I know most do not ward and the red trinket lets me run through without even bothering to destroy them for ganks! Udyr Victories! I am not so hot with Elise though, comparatively. Had to play top a few times...

    League Of Legends

    Well Gold is far more toxic than it appeared to be last season. I played Leona 95% of the time last season, and did well. But every game I'm in lately has one or two absolute fail lanes who die to the stupidest shit. A lot of games are totally bonkers too. People just running around and not...

    League Of Legends

    After you do a lot of ranked you begin to learn a lot of the nuances of the game. Normals are just for testing builds and trying out new champs before ranked. I don't get satisfaction from laning with someone who (likely) has no idea what they are doing. This happens in normals pretty often...

    Finally won my promo series back to gold. First game went well. Second game I was honestly surprised we won. Had a "top only or feed" dick in the lobby, who went full damage Renekton and almost AFKd because Yi wouldn't go tank. Our Ashe, sat at Nexus and did nothing all game complaining at being...

    My promos back to gold were filled with shit. First game had a troll ass pre-made who went Ahri/Xin Bot Lane. Forcing Sivir to go mid and get destroyed by LeBlanc. I did go 8/2 as Udyr though that game. But whatever. Next two games had me playing ADC, but top and mid didn't do so well. Oh well...

    RPGs of 2014

    DA:O was all about the Blood Mage. The retarded AOE shit he could do would kill literally anything. You didn't even need to be tanky. The Arcane Warrior scaling armor off of magic items was pretty hilarious too. All in all. DA:O wasn't a bad introduction to their new IP. Some of the characters...

    Yeah, I got the same as Bloodfrenzy. Gold II, went 6-4 and got Silver III. But I was on a huge losing streak right before the reset.

    Been playing arena a lot lately. Finally had an AWESOME draft for a Warrior Deck (Black Knight, the better warrior spells, Ysera). Just to go 0-3 with the absolute worst draws I could possibly have.

    Since I didn't see it in here and we're coming up on the release of this I figured I'd start a thread.

    Well got my account hacked for the first time in... anything. Not sure how they acquired my stuff. But they did. This shall be a great ordeal. UNGH. Luckily I use paypal and dont have a saved CC on there, and I have little RP and IP at the moment. So I do not believe they can do much damage.

    What I have learned is that ranked becomes a whole lot of fun when you focus on your own abilities and see yourself improve. Ignore the toxic player base and just do the best you can every time. You'll rise up before you know it.
