    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    This definitely felt like the second half of a single episode. Strange - would it have cost too much/been too much to ask to have the season premier be 1 hour long, ala Mad Men? Last season the 55 minute episode length was noticeable, but moving forward as a show - there is so much going on I...

    Dark Souls 2

    There were tons of good viable weps in Dark Souls. Uchi, Great Scythe, ML Greatsword, Estoc, Claymore, etc. If anything the area that needed improvement in BOTH games was ranged (xbow/bows). The system was clunky and it is next to impossible to do a full playthrough on NG+ w/ just ranged. I hope...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Of course every company has idiot douchenozzles - but this one happened to be highly visible, and highly desperate for attention. I don't see anyone from Sony doing this - hence why its a big deal. It's definitely a defensible reason to not by a product. If I as a business owner went to a lunch...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Was already planning on going Sony again (after dealing with 3 red ring shit boxes in 2 years when the 360 dropped) - but this seals it. The fact that this chimp had a job (even if it was customer service stooge) says all I need to know. Clear that they don't respect their customer, and the fact...

    Soccer 2012-2013 3.0

    Hope that Bale injury isn't too serious (though I hope it lasts long enough for Arsenal to catch Spuds)! Gervinho playing excellent the last few weeks, and even without Wilshere Arsenal have played their best football of the season since Bayern away. You nervous, Spurs? Haha.

    Dark Souls 2

    Meh, I greatly preferred Dark Souls. Played them both within a few weeks of each other and Dark just felt more polished and tight. Great Scythe +15 and tons of dexterity ftw!

    Buying a car?

    Ya, the want for the Chevy was purely cosmetic. I just liked the look of them - didn't know they don't make the Texas Editions anymore - saw one a few weeks ago and thought it looked clean. I like the Ram aesthetic as well.. Not a fan of the F150's though they are used a lot in the field...

    Buying a car?

    Guess I'm about to cave and buy a truck - been out in the oil patch a lot recently, and a truck could get me a lot brownie points with my landmen, pumpers, etc.... Was looking at the new Silverado Texas Edition. Anyone know anything about it? I mostly just like the look of it - never been a...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    100% spot on. I can't believe anyone but the most pussy-less nerd can list Dany as one of their favorite characters in these books. Maybe after the first few, but ADWD pretty much destroyed her character progression. Will be interesting to see if Jon fucks her doggy style, or missionary though.

    Negril is pretty decent. Stayed at Rockhouse on the cliffs and it was pretty. Was high most of the time, so that 8 days was a bit of a blur - but all inclusive resorts anywhere are a waste of money in my experience.

    NBA 2012-13 Season Thread - Crown The Heat!

    Yup, Lakers just better than Dallas. Kaman, Wright, etc just aren't good enough. Ah well, maybe Dallas can draft someone good - something they haven't done in a decade.

    No he wasn't bad - but he was nothing more than average... My man Romo ALWAYS finishes the season in the top 5 of most QB stat lists - he MUST be elite. The 4 years prior to that he was terrible/suspended. Nnamdi is following that career path - not the "I'm going to carry around 500lbs of guns -...

    NBA 2012-13 Season Thread - Crown The Heat!

    Lakers/Mavs tonight should be good - neither team is capable of winning a series against SA, but at least Dallas is playing for something this late in the season. Think Nash is out so the Mavs have a decent shot at winning. Actually think Utah is going to steal the 8th spot - playing better ball...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Very good point, and a big difference between this show and the ones I mentioned. There isn't a source material for those shows that is already really, really good. There are times I wish I had never read the books, as I think I'd enjoy the show more and not spend time comparing them.

    I can literally name at least 5 shows all better written, acted, and composed than GOT.

Whats funny is I don't recall anyone nitpicking truly great shows like...

    Dubai is a really bizzare place. I've only been once on business, but it feels like Vegas w/ a hand brake. I.E. there is a ton of commercial shit to do (shopping, eating, etc) - but it isn't out of control. The beaches are okay (Al Mamzar) - its hot as fuck and feels like the desert moreso than...

    And also, LOL at saying Crossfit is more practical for Real Life applications. Sitting behind a computer screen 5 days a week?

    I've watched that clip several times now, and for the life of me I can't understand how that happens on such an innocuous play. Pre-existing injury? Only thing I can think of. The reaction of his team was insane - they knew immediately the kid was done. Sad.

    Haven't shown him this season - he was in a few episodes at the end of last season though, in Harrenhall (looking all tall and gangly). The trial of Tyrion would have been so much more epic had they been able to keep the original Mountain.

    Agreed - I don't really want to accept it though, as the books are so good (and so much better than the show, as good as it is). Was also disappointed as hell in the unsullied. I thought they'd all be lean, ripped dudes covered in bronze.... not faded steel and leather. The amazing thing to...

    Meh. I'm sure there is a reason for Barristan exposing himself now, as opposed to much later - and I'm also sure that there is a reason that Tormund was a hard edged dickhead, as opposed to the light-"harr"ted guy in the books - but I don't immediately see it. Tyrion/Tywin scene was right on...
