The fact I didn't get penalized is my reward.

If no one is claiming it's bad for you, why are so many people fighting over it?

As someone who did Atkins and lost ~100 lbs in 10 months I can give you some anecdotal evidence on "power" lifting while in Ketosis. I have no idea about the science behind it, or if I was just an anomaly but with just eating good protein and fats and a low carb diet consisting of mainly green...

This would make the game about as bland as current WoW. Might as well just instance shit if all the loot is going to be exactly the same.

Yea where is that idea coming from? I certainly remember doing a good portion of my levelling outside dungeons in EQ. I didn't start until Kunark but I leveled in Swamp of No Hope (was that the name?), LOIO, The Overthere, the giant fort in I can't remember what zone now, shit I even did some...

I don't like the idea of phasing. "Hey we're standing right next to each other but I can't see you because I haven't fulfilled some stupid mundane requirement to be in your phase". No thanks. If you want to show me what the world was like before I arrived here, do it caverns of time style.

A system where, say, 90% of a dungeon is uninstanced but there are two rare spawn named mobs and the only way to get to said named mobs is by finding the keys to their "instances"? You find the keys off of roaming named at 100% drop rate and .2% drop rate off random trash? Then once you have the...

His character is pretty much an older version of his character in American Pie, yes. He even tries something else ridiculous with his jimmy at someone's suggestion later on in this show

I found the first few episodes of this show a little boring. Piper was overly naive, sweet and annoying. Jason Biggs is a terrible actor who can only play one role poorly. The middle episodes (up until about episode 8) were fantastic. Very funny, compelling storylines, good character...

This is probably my biggest guilty pleasure

I didn't mean to make it sound like that. I get to take a legitimate 5 weeks of vacation when all is said and done. It's just hard to get that last 3 weeks in, but that last 3 weeks is... above and beyond in my eyes anyway. I was using slight hyperbole to prove a point that sometimes you need to...

Alright people are focusing on the wrong portions of the message I am trying to convey. So let me lay it out. I make 130k/yr. I have great benefits, I work 15 minutes from my house, I get 8 weeks of vacation. My company would never require me to forfeit vacation nor would they ever deny me...

He's got a point though. It's painful to watch a show you love devolve into complete crap. I think he's being generous with how long it takes. Weeds took 2.5 seasons. Californication took 2.5 seasons (the end of season 1 til halfway through season two were absolute shit. It got better in...

Well if it was as simple as returning a call or email it wouldn't be a problem. There are times where I literally spend a full 8 hours fixing things that someone who was trying to help me broke. It's not that big a deal. I don't typically take week long vacations. Usually just long weekends here...

I've used Match, OKC and POF. I can basically echo most of what Wombat said. The exception being that on Match, because people are paying for it, they tend to fall into the trap of "I will find the PERFECT person". I met a lot of very insincere people on Match who were trying to front...

You guys crack me up. So statistically I have the same chance, living in CT, of dying in a Tornado, as someone who lives in the Midwest? I guess you guys think demographics are useless? When you post a blanket statement saying "Everyone in the United States has the same chance of dying to...

"You don't want what you've never had". Water coolers and free coffee are things that if you've never had you don't really care about it, because you don't even think about it as you said. Once you've been at a company that offers it, and move to a company that does not, it becomes a supreme...

When people make retarded posts with uninformed bullshit statistical analysis like this: Because everyone in the US is at the same risk to meet their demise via the listed possibilities. You know why I'm not 87 times more likely to die from drowning? Because I know how to fucking swim. You...

So if I've seen all 16 seasons of the anime and wanted to start reading the manga, where would I start? Does the anime follow the manga closely? Should I just read it from the start or can I pick it up from where the anime left off?

Says you. I compare this to heated seats in a car. You never need them until you have them. And then you never want to go without it again. Not having water coolers or free coffee is supremely annoying. You'd be surprised how far 2 little things like that go for most people.

Well it's a Rare IP correct? And Microsoft owns Rare. Not much of a surprise it's exclusive to the XBone. Even if Rare isn't making it (Where's the source for that again?)

If you honestly make a combined 300k and feel poor you're living beyond your means, even in a city like Boston. There is no reason you shouldn't feel very comfortable at that salary range.

If you're financial situation is steep, why the hell would you be trying to date? That shit is expensive dog!

I think you misunderstand. I get 8.... 8 weeks of vacation. It's almost like being a teacher, except my job doesn't suck. That's way more vacation than I could ever realistically take anyway. When you include holidays it's close to getting a week off a month. It's not as if I only get 3 weeks...

I've never personally done it, but apparently East Asian tailors are the best in the world and are incredibly inexpensive for the quality of garment you get. They often do tours and NYC is a frequent stop. I have no idea where to begin to find them but perhaps someone else here does.

They don't deny me the vacation time. They just call me all day long with issues while I'm on said vacation. If I turn off my phone and e-mail they won't discipline me, I'll just have a metric ton of shit to deal with when I come back. Mostly because of issues with other downstream processes...

Or you can find a custom clothier and get something like an Adrian Jules MTM soup to nuts which should cost you well under $2k and probably be nicer than anything you get at Nordstrom. I regret going with Southwick for my MTM over the Adrian Jules. It came in last week and while the pants fit...

Some companies also dangle a lot of great benefits that are completely unusable in front of you. I get 8 weeks of vacation a year at my company. But I am a software developer working with a niche product (Microsoft BizTalk) and am the only developer that knows the technology here. I will NEVER...

D2 wasn't as tedious. And they had HUGE amount of mob dense areas. D3 had like.... 4. And most of them were inaccessible to laymen who didn't "exploit" the early act 2 chests. The biggest problem was you didn't have the cool AE builds that are so fun in games like these and you didn't have huge...

Did you play B&W when it was first released? The game didn't work. There is a difference between not delivering on hype (how good a game is claimed to be) and not delivering on features (what you told people was actually in the game). B&W 3 (or was it 6?) was really good though.

Oh I was definitely trolling

To be fair, it's the only Lionhead game that was over-hyped and under-delivered. Black and White was amazing.....

It's time for some injection of ze deutche

After reading this thread and others on various other forums I decided to take the plunge and buy an MTM suit. I did some research on canvas vs fused, waist suppression, single vs double breasted, 2 vs 3 button, etc etc etc (mostly just personal preference choices). So after figuring out what...

Do you know why FF8 is my favorite FF game? Hate all you want I don't care. The game was good, and the card game was awesome. The story is underrated. But the reason that was my favorite FF game is because I used to play it while blasting one of the most underrated... awesome albums ever...

Ferragamo seems to suffer from the "Buy my name, not my quality" syndrome. Don't get me wrong, the shoes look great but... ~900 USD for a wingtip? ~300 USD for a polo shirt? Gimme a break. The Magnanni stuff seems a lot more reasonable. I almost threw up when I saw the prices on the John Lobb...

Youtube videos are blocked at work so I can't tell if this was posted or not, but here it is anyway. Les Grossman's rant to the Flaming Dragon from Tropic Thunder: Okay Flaming Dragon, fuckface. First, take a big step back... and literally fuck your own face! I don't know what kind of...

It's not his fault the show is terrible and Barney is the only character that doesn't make you want to strangle someone. I stopped watching long ago. If I knew that Draegan's ending was going to be THE ending I'd start watching again.

You missed the quintessential "I can only act one way but people still think I'm amazing" actor. Robert DeNiro. Most overrated actor of all time.
