I could dig a "Violent Night" type Robin Hood story.

How in the fuck did that make three quarters of a billion dollars? I couldn't even finish the clip that was so embarrassing. I thought the MCU was bad, but I guess I didn't realize how bad. Holy shit. And that's apparently one of the better ones?

Ah, didn't realize it was just an update for 2.0 and not Space Age. Good to know. It's a bitch to figure out what's happening with the mod, even combing through the Discord. Guess I'll put it off as well.

Funny, I almost tagged @Tuco the other day to see if you'd started a Space Age/Space Exploration game yet, since it appears to have been updated finally. I haven't decided if I want to yet. And if I do, if I want to add K2, or some other mod on top of it, for extra craziness. My one SE...

If this show doesn't end with Demi Moore's character bankrupting the company and then having to sell all her personal assets to cover the losses to the cartel, I'm going to be disappointed. I thought the gas station was a missed opportunity for a Bucc-ee's cameo, but I guess there isn't one to...

I had a blast with it, but it was also like a decade ago. I think the only one I played as much as 5 was Vice City.

Oh no, not his daughter!

Yeah, so reading the comments about this latest episode, I'm going to reiterate my above post. The problem with this show is they're relying on fans of the IP with easter eggs (see, it's those things you remember!). This does absolutely nothing for someone who doesn't remember or know this shit...

6845.50 Nailed it.

Did my spreadsheet update for the year, and our portfolio went up more this year than our best earning year of actually working. And that's gross, not net. Considering our first year of retirement we saw a 21% drop (YoY, peak to valley was even worse), I'd say things are going amazing. 4 years...

I still haven't watched Squid Games season 2 when I heard they split it up. And then it turns out it sucked. But the reality was season 1 was pretty well self contained and it didn't need a second one.

I think your points really echo the stuff @Fucker said earlier. If this season we're stretched out to a 20 episode season, sure, throw in long dramatic scenes where nothing really happens. The problem is we got 9 episodes and those super long scenes that didn't move the plot forward make the...

That's where my comment about feint attacks probably comes from. Sure, I could memorize every boss and dodge roll at the exact time. I'm having trouble connecting Elden Ring game of the decade/ever doing it, and people throwing Claire Obscur out the window because you had to do a parry QTE.

So I bought it and...it feels terrible? Everything feels super clunky and slow. I'm not particularly far into it, but the combat feels like molasses. The dodge roll seems worthless, so I guess I'm just supposed to strafe run most attacks. It's odd I see so many people complain about Claire...

For some reason Blue Mountain State was the first thing that came to mind when you said this.

This might be why I'm not particularly enjoying it. I played Fallout and Fallout 2 in the 90's and loved them. Played Fallout 3 and 4 on release. Played New Vegas. Played 76. I couldn't tell you a fucking lick of "lore" because it's either been to long or it just wasn't good enough for me to...

This guy doesn't even recognize exceptional TV anymore.

If you're investing with Vanguard, there's basically no difference. The downside to an ETF would generally be you need to buy whole shares, but Vanguard allows fractional ETF shares. It's basically whether you care to be able to trade during the day or if you don't care if it's after close.

In power armor, yeah. In regular hand to hand combat he got the shit kicked out of him. He was basically the most pathetic person there. And based on what's happened in the show, I can't imagine more than even a month has passed total.

I feel like I missed a training montage or something, because like 2 weeks before that scene, Maximus was a pathetic squire who all the other squires beat the shit out of, but now he's overpowering men almost twice his size and armed.

I've been putting off buying Elden Ring for years. It's on sale a decent amount right now and I'm tempted to buy it, but I feel like I'm going to end up like you and it's just...not for me.

You expect blatant propaganda to have good writing?

I feel like this describes just about every "mystery" show lately. Cool concept for a first season and it's clear they had no fucking clue what to do with it after that. Yellowjackets, From, Stranger Things, Severance, Westworld, Leftovers, even a comedy like The Good Place. It makes you...

I've made this post several times over the last two decades, but if shit really hits the fan where you'd need gold, you would've been better off with bullets. And if you need bullets, the reality is you probably should've made a plan for either family or neighbors, on large scale (dozens or...

Some of my wife's family work at the gaseous diffusion plant in Paducah. They were getting ready to decommission it sometime in the last decade, and then it was like, just kidding, we should spin it back up again. This country doesn't really take nuclear seriously.

The difference is Walter White and Saul Goodman are rational characters who descend into dark places due to circumstance, whereas Carol Sturka acts completely irrational and narcissistic in basically every scenario. Anyway, for 9 episodes of this show, I feel like not a whole lot happened. You...

His point is that Congress (or the IRS?) would have to adjust the capital gains brackets incredibly frequently to adjust for hyperinflation. Otherwise you're paying current rates in pulling out millions in equities to pay for your bread. And I don't know about you, but I don't see a situation...

Maybe they're counting on no one caring about Marvel anymore? What's the last one that wasn't a gigantic flop? Can't count Deadpool either since that wasn't really the same.

I'm sitting here wondering if that Red One movie with The Rock wasn't inspired by someone watching the beginning of Scrooged with that Lee Majors movie where Santa and Mrs Santa and the elves all break out guns to fight off whatever it was.

I'm traveling, but there was a portfolio I saw a long time ago that's probably right up your alley. I want to say it was called golden butterfly, but I don't have my bookmarks to confirm.

This is recency bias. Look at a historical chart of gold prices and tell me how you would've felt investing into gold in the 80s without its price moving for two decades.

I remembered hating Skyler, but holy shit was she a repugnant character. Vince sure does know how to make unappealing female characters. I think that's why Pluribus is floundering, because Carol fucking sucks. Then again, if Carol had been a male character, you'd cut out 90% of the retarded...

It's a bet on the US economy. If you assume the US economy keeps chugging on, you invest in the public companies that encompass it. Not only that, but it refreshes itself dumping the losers and adding the new winners. Do I think the US economy is impervious? Obviously not, see my posts in the...

I was bored to death this episode. Carol just isn't interesting. It's so odd because we started rewatching Breaking Bad and a lot of the cinematic elements are identical, but it's just so much better to watch. I also feel like that restaurant scene was really jarring with all the cars driving...

What's the 1996 door? A massive run up for 4 years?

Average looks to be around 7500 just eyeballing it, which is like 8% up for the year...which is below the average market year of 10%. Looks less bullish in that context to me.

It's weird because I feel like I just posted similar about someone else a few weeks ago (can't remember who), but Cameron seems to get a lot of credit for a really limited run of success like he's some amazing director. But it's basically two Terminator movies, Abyss, and Aliens which was a...

Brown Bunny? Her career took off afterwards. That thing came out in 2003. She got Big Love in 2006. Hell, she was also in Kids. Look at her acting credits and I don't think it had any impact whatsoever.

Good thing I live in the US and basically everything I buy is denominated in USD then.

Nah. It dates all the way back to before the first great depression in the 1880s. Fuck off with your "equities only did well for the last 50 years." http://www.moneychimp.com/features/market_cagr.htm
