    I wish I could find it, but there was some fat woman that did a marathon recently. She took 2 15-20 minute bathroom breaks, and ended up keeping the marathon organizers there for an obscene number of hours after the rest of the racers had finished. Apparently the organizers didn't put a time...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    HBO could always just do a crowd-funding campaign saying, "Look, we want to do this right, and the actor salaries are a major concern." With the amount of retarded shit that gets funded on Kickstarter, I can't imagine HBO would have any trouble getting millions in extra for an additional season.

    Awesome, thanks. Got my first Friday dungeon complete (and a dub-mythlit too!). Now I just need to find about 20 other friends with an auto-healer (or hope you come up again) so I can get enough to evo.

    It's also much easier to put the muscle your body has already had back on. So if you lose any, it won't take the same amount of time to put it back on.

    If anyone has an auto-healer (preferably a maxed Siren) for tomorrow, I could use one (or more) for a resolve team so I can finally evo some of my gods. In the event that someone wants to do that, and hasn't added me already, I'm 357,318,388. Thanks ahead of time!

    Boyhood - Richard Linklater's next movie

    Just heard about this movie today. Has a 100% rating on RT. I had always thought it'd be awesome if someone did something like this, where you shoot over a decade+. But I figured that was ridiculous and pretty unlikely. Anyway, release is set for July 11th. I may actually get my ass into a...

    Yeah, that's ridiculous. Arya's chapters are some of the only things that got me through that shit book. The Cersei chapters were decent, Jamie's were tolerable, and the Iron Islands stuff was occasionally interesting. And obviously the Dorne stuff was good. The rest of it was pretty crap.

    That's pretty much the same for me. In fact, I'm going on a cruise in August and that's when I want to get it by. I don't read books (last books I read was the ASoIAF series), so mostly just surfing the internet and movies/tv. I'm thinking something in the $250 or under price range. Never...

    Torrents

    I got mine from eztv torrents and I removed them within probably 5 seconds of completion. Oh, and the fuckers were tiny files, like 250mb. So they logged my IP in like a 5 minute or less timeframe. Twice about 2 weeks apart. The reason I made the switch was because I have Mediacom and apparently...

    I got pretty fucking sick of cutting. And yeah, my lifts were going down more than I was comfortable with. My goal had originally been 10-12%, but because I underestimated my starting bodyfat my cut went longer than I anticipated. Then I would have slow bulked until the end of the year (maybe...

    Wow, I take back everything I said about that contract. That's extremely good for the Niners. I think if I were Kaep, I would have at least tried to push forward that April 1st date. Make it like late February at the latest to try and force the guaranteed money forward or make the team decide...

    Sometimes I wonder if I just didn't read closely enough, or if you people are just obsessed with the books a bit too much. Who the fuck is Lady Waynewood, and why don't I remember her or why she's important? Or rather, what storyline is so important that you don't want changed? Or maybe it's...

    I thought that was the worst part of the episode. The whole suspense thing and being like "Shit guys, sorry I let you down" and you knew damn well it was going to be some miracle level shit. It felt unneccessarily drawn out. I laughed pretty hard at the beginning of the presentation when he...

    Haha. I was actually going to say that. I mean, 7 or 8 hours of rerolls, I probably averaged about 4 or 5 an hour. Figure maybe every fifth person does that, and you can cut into that number pretty fast.

    If they're really only doing 7 seasons, I'd imagine all of the last two books will be covered in season 5, with parts of WoW (since they're apparently already start down this path). That means WoW for Season 6 and the last book for 7.

    Holy shit that's a ton of money. If they don't win in the next 2 years or so, the team will get blown up. They've got a ton of talent right now, and that talent will be leaving for their own paydays. They won't be able to afford to keep nearly as much of the team together with that kind of...

    So it's coming close to time for Orange is the New Black, and my wife wants to watch it. Problem is, I got rid of our PS3 a while ago (which is what we had used for Netflix before) and I also moved our Roku to our workout room. In the living room I've got an HTPC running XBMC, but it can't run...

    12 year olds stab friend to prove Slender Man is real

    I would say the fact that they tried tomurdersomeone by stabbing them 19 times would be a good first sign. I'd say even less than .05% of the population fits that bill. A fucked up murder attempt like this absolutely, 100% tells you that they're fucked in the head. I don't see why this is so...

    Anyone got any tips for clearing the fucking Wednesday dungeon?

    My first cut is officially over. It was about 20 weeks long and I went from 178 pounds to 157. Unfortunately that's a bit off since on my bulk I had been doing night weigh ins and during my cut I switched to mornings (since it's more accurate). In reality I was probably 176 at the start.

    Except the reaction from everyone to this week's episode has basically been, "Ok, fuck it. Apparently he's going to kill any character we may like just a tiny bit."

    Agreed. This comes up a lot with guys (men/boys) who want to start working out. They're generally incredibly nervous that everyone is judging them. Fortunately, the people that regularly workout generally are way too involved in what they themselves are doing to give a shit about someone else...

    Muscle failure isn't required to build muscle. When you lift something heavy, even once, it forms small tears in the muscle. Your body repairs those tears and gets stronger in the process (think about it like breaking a bone where it forms more bone over the break site). This is also the...
