Not sure if you are referring to me, but I was actually complimenting the posts since I cant add more rep. You have made some solid zingers and had good observations the last couple posts.

@Sutekh- Last two posts were both at a Michael Jordan level, bravo. @JT- You clearly want to date this woman and are experiencing stress due to trying to deny it to yourself. I am going to go with the group here and say make a play, assuming everything you have said is accurate. Either...

Co-op has its place. Your penis did not get any smaller just because some dude got help on the Smelter with his mele only character. Also, team farm runs at the dragon temple were the most enjoyable way to grind in the entire game. Frankly, it also helped replay value and cut down on...

Compared to DS2? Not a chance. DS2, you put a mark down if you want to help and other person clicks the mark if they want the help. Compare that to the convoluted shit you have to do to get any co-op going in BB....

San Fran is going to be a hard place to form serious traditional relationships. I have a lot of friends up there and they all say the same thing. Its a great place to get casual sex, but a nightmare for building traditional relationships. Lots of drunken nerds abound if you are just looking...

@Iannis- Largely agree, but there is a wide gulf of platonic affection that comes before "be my personal man pillow" and its important to maintain some boundaries. At least if you want an actual friendship of equals as opposed to this friend-zoned pal who gets jerked around because she let you...

Am I a white knight or misogynist? Because you have called me both at various times. At my age, when friends ask me over that late at night, its either a pre-planned activity or some form of emergency/issue where a friend needs a sounding board. But I know stuff is different when you are...

Co-op is fun and a lot more entertaining way to farm souls than just re-plowing levels. Plus a lot of the better encounters in the DS2 DLC revolved around aspects of co-op, including the final Ice King fight.

Yeah, friendzoned for sure and plus one to everything Srathor said. I think the fact that she is snapping her fingers and you are skipping over to hang out and fulfill her emotional needs at 10pm on a weekday pretty much should tell you all you need to know. Mainly, deep down you don't want...

I was actually going to suggest you as a better source of advice, here. All kidding aside, you'd fit right in there.

Bay area is both a massive laid back area, when it comes to the concepts of relationships, and a den of crazy. You cannot really apply any known relationship rules to people from the Bay Area, for better or worse.

Hating classical music is a perfectly valid reason to not like it.

I think there is some knees too sharp action in this thread and I know audiophiles love to hate on stuff (nature of the culture), but my experience with all Muse albums has been the same. Initial impressions end up being meh, then a couple months in the shit gets stuck in your brain. I do...

There is something to be said for the more sporting nature of the table top community, too. Less murderball, more roster building, and people are civil. Every online league I have ever attempted has instantly degenerated into XP farms and murderball in under a season. The RR League was as...

Agree there. As much as people bagged on it, FF12 was arguably the best party AI around, if you customized it correctly. Both of these games the AI is terribly, even when heavily customized.

Big arms, pronounced male facial features, adams apple.....

I feel the opposite, but I totally understand someone preferring W3 (which is essentially a much better version of Kindoms of Amalur) if the party mechanics of DA:I were not a major draw for it. Both games are so good that it is really a matter of ones personal preferences as to which you would...

The trick is they are all crazy, it is just a matter of degrees. The trick is to find a manageable level, just like more mature women will try and find a manageable level of asshole. But yeah, the actual credo is to never sleep with anyone crazier than yourself. Re JT's situation- It is a...

Early on, it REALLY sucked. Before you get Ludwigs and just faceroll/oneshot everything, some bosses present serious learning curves that burn up your stock. Once Hyperion Gaol opens up, then yeah full restock and some bonus mats in under 15 minutes. Its still tedious and there is no reason...

Point 1- I completed the entire game, minus the chalice stuff from Izl (sp?) Root onward. Once I got Ludwigs, all I did was mash R1 most of the time and no boss (aside from Martyr) took more than three attempts to beat. If it wasn't in a Depth 4+ Chalice dungeon, it ceased being difficult...

There were a lot of songs I really liked on 2nd Law, but a lot of ones I did not care for as well (more than normal). So far, I am liking this one, but the only songs that jumped out at me have been Handler and Drones thus far. I hope they let the bass player do a couple on this album again...

Part of it is that they don't chain release albums and they are amazing live. They really a lot like Queen was in their heyday.

MOO2 was really easy to break with certain custom race builds (or just being a race that had certain talents). Creative and Telepathic were so unbalanced. I would like to see them scale those back a tad and make the top difficulty somewhat winnable by less optimized races. Also, dial back the...

Holy shit, thanks for the tip!

The shield mechanic was something I actually liked. It made for methodical thought out combat. BB is just frantically reefing on the attack and hoping your rally regain and stamina outlast the trash, or for bosses its just poke dodge poke. There were plenty of fights (and a lot of PvP) where...

I said this in the BB thread, but it is (for me at least) the weakest of the series. The twitch gameplay, the linear progression, the limited enemy types, the erratic hit boxes, and the silly difficulty progression curve all put me off. The complete lack of replay value hurts, too. I mean...

The game I really wish they would remake is Master of Magic, which was made by the same company that did MOO. A modern Star Control would be a welcome console game, too.

Wasteland 2 has been my favorite PC game of the last two years, though the Shadowrun sequel was up there, too.

You also have to remember that Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and Sound Garden basically broke the shitty pop stranglehold on the music scene at that time. And as mentioned, Cobain was a great bullshitter and self promoter, plus they did not have the internal drama of Sound Garden nor the aversion to the...

Seriously, though, what's with the crease lines on "her" neck in a bunch of these pictures?

Bonus points if you get a BJ and when she asks you how it was you reply with "Mediocre!"

That statement in no way discredits what Deathwing said.

So much nerd hipster going on around here.....

If all this is ends up being is an updated clone of FO3, I will still feel it money well spent. The story I really wanted to see in game (Van Buren) got partially used in Old World Blues, so I am not getting that wish. The game is all about the backstory and atmosphere, which that trailer...

Matter of opinion, but watching all of DD before this season made this season of Arrow almost unwatchable for the wife and I. Ras Al Ghul is really the only redeeming part of it, but Fisk was handled just as well in DD S1. It comes down to how much camp and angst you want out of your comic...

Yeah Hal Jordan and Ollie run was one of my favorite books when I was a kid. Hal was powerful, but basically a humorless dick and he needed Oliver to balance out his personality. It was arguably one of the better DC comics of the late 70s early 80s. Anyhow, this season really tanked the...

That's what the show turned him into and its lifting Batman plots left and right. The comic book Green Arrow was much more of a swashbuckler type, whereas this version is just a batman who lies a lot to his friends.
