The "first werewolf who shows her his lipstick" was such a throw away, fast joke, but might be one of the funniest lines I've ever heard.

I screwed around a bit and ended up crashing a few times. I didn't have any problems a month ago. Dunno what build they're using but it sucks.

I guess my point is, light staff isn't really a super damaging weapon to start with. So you go into light armor and now you can't take hits, and you can't do much damage. Add the amber gem nerf in and you're a gimp. I get that they didn't like that people would just put on heavy armor, drop a...

Reduced healing amount 20%, reduced healing effectiveness in medium/heavy armor, nerfed amber gems. Basically made it so it's significantly harder to solo level with life staff. Meaning it's the only class that needs to group to level up, just like most MMO's.

Get the hard plastic ones, and not the gallon of milk type (nor do you want regular 16 oz water bottles). Keep them in a cool dark place. The milk type jugs and/or keeping them in hot or sunlit areas will cause the plastic to degrade. You don't want that. Rotate (use) them every year or so...

I like that they dumpstered life staff so now it's like every other MMO where being a healer blows ass. Well done.

So last night I decided we'd try again and just go straight to the 2nd episode. We made it about 8 minutes. Wife and I have been watching The Office again and I think it's ruined most comedies for us. B99 (at least episode 2 of this season) just seemed so...lazy? It was just loud screaming with...

I'm all for finally addressing the debt, but uh, I'm not entirely sure what she's saying here? They want another $5T in spending and are saying they won't raise the ceiling. So are we defaulting then?

Damn straight!

As excited as I am for this game, I cannot understand getting excited for this beta. Especially with how short it is.

I didn't ask any questions. My original post was just venting about the situation. It's probably my fault for mentioning the vaccine since it's such a sensitive topic for people. He offered advice about how not getting the vaccine was going to ruin my life, as if he has any fucking idea about my...

I'm 37. We'll be fine. I wanted a mortgage as a hedge against inflation, but it's not the end of the world if we don't get it.

What's it like to have absolutely no conviction? Leaving aside the vaccination debate, I'm not about to let a corporation dictate to me what I should do. Especially when it's a medical decision. You're also making a lot of assumptions about me that don't apply (and had you read my post that...

As someone currently rewatching The Office, I'll repeat what I did about Ted Lasso. Shows nowadays are miserable. I want fun shows where I can forget that the world fucking sucks and any conflict is completely minor.

Meanwhile you've derailed this thread more than it already was with your complaints about it. Well done?

That might've been an option if we had a September, or maybe even first week of October, closing date, but with it being almost at the end of October, there's no way. I'd actually have to get a first dose in September, and would even have time for the second one. The vaccine mandate came after...

Well fuck. This construction company fucked me. We were supposed to close sometime in September. Wife and I had been going by every week to check on progress, and in August the only things they accomplished were laying the driveway. We had an angry conversation with our realtor, and then the...

How many trading days left this year? We can beat that 77 easily.

Plot twist: if not for the eviction moratorium, they would've been out on the streets and sought higher ground.

Agree with everyone else. This was damn fine writing. I don't think the episode had any low points. Nothing superfluous. Everything was important, everything was interesting. Much better than any of these other MCU shows.

It's inevitable. The points they're using to refute it are vaccination rates, of which Florida is basically identical to the rest of the country.

Time to invest everything I own into JNCO's!

Except Jan - Sep of 2017 was an 8% increase, followed by an 8% increase through the end of the year. 2021 has been a 22% increase from Jan - Sep.

It's just baffling. There has been shit all to play for the last year. This is a game that doesn't require much to push out the door. But in another 6 weeks or so the floodgates of gaming open and there will be tons of competition. Amazon in their infinite wisdom decided that they wanted to...

It's funny, because I feel like delaying New World was a fuck up with so much other stuff coming out in October. Now they're delaying this one and making the same mistake. Again.

Geez, not even just 2022, but summer 2022. It'll be like 3 years after filming wrapped that they release it.

I guess I don't know shit about Hawkeye, but I feel like it was kind of implied there was something special about him (vision? a "6th sense" about shooting arrows?). Is that not the case, where anyone can just pick up a bow and be a superhero?

Yeah, it's also why I feel pretty good about everything though. This is how rich people feel; the inflation gets rolled up into equities so I don't feel the pain. My wife has pretty high anxiety about retiring, but I can tell her even if we get a 20% drop, we're still good because that's more...

Just did our monthly account checks and we've doubled our net worth in 2 years. Shit, my TSP is up 13% since quitting my job in March. So that's without any contributions.

I saw an article the other day highly critical of the 2nd season. Basically amounted to, "everything is too happy." Fuck off. I enjoy this show because it's got a cheery disposition. Every single other piece of media has a conflict that runs through multiple episodes, has to tackle the...

Just call me the Rajaah of investing.

Great. I'm all for a race to the bottom. When none of us have electricity or even clean water, I can't wait to see what comes next.

I always like to point out the income inequality between someone born in a western country and the other 90% of the world. Your median $50k salary puts you into the top 1% of the world (1.3%, but close enough). Would it be fair for someone in India or the Congo to get a piece of your pie...

Wife started watching and I wasn't really paying attention. I told her it suffers from the same thing as "I Care A Lot." The characters are just complete assholes. Why should I care about any of them? I don't know if it's a Netflix problem, or Millennial problem, but they write characters who...

The baffling part was mid-way through that was their security breach thing.

Is that not a projectile?

Sold the last of what I had this morning.

So it was my understanding that the real danger with hurricanes is flooding/surge and not wind. And when it is wind, it's because of projectiles. Since most of these buildings had been through Katrina (and likely replaced), why does it seem like the wind is such a major problem? I feel like a...

Yes, the lastest and last season.
