    Home Improvement

    I don't have any painted counters. Just a large window sill and this half wall. And shortly, we'll have a painted pantry type of thing. Does the Marquee stuff ever fully cure? IE - If you paint a window sill and let it dry for like a month, then put plate down and pick it up the next day...

    Home Improvement

    The pros are easy. A nice clean installation with hidden components. The cons are that sound is directional. It'll always sound like the TV show you are watching is above you. It's great for ambient music, but for TV shows and stuff, you really want ground level sound.

    What type of paint should you use for ledges/furniture? We've used Behr (Home Depot generic) for almost everything in our house. I have this half wall in my living room. The surface is painted with Behr semi-gloss white. It's been painted for almost 8 years, and things STILL stick to the...

    I meant because I'm planning on playing in 1st person. I won't visibly "see" them, because I'll be playing from inside of their perspective.

    Fall 2014 Anime Thread

    I had never read the FMA manga. Then I watched the original anime and loved it. Everything was great until the very end. Then I was a little confused. I gave Brotherhood a chance, and how quick they seemed to rush through some of the earlier plots threw me off, but I stuck through it...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    GTA 5, as a whole (not just the stock market part), is a masterpiece. They made a damn good game. My only complaint is in the physics with ground vehicles. I guess they couldn't have different plane and car physics, so as a result the cars tend to "fly" every time they hit a bump. It makes...

    You already can. Movies that aren't marvel are pre orderable usually the day they hit the theaters.

    Big Hero 6 (Marvel/Disney)

    After the first encounter with the kabuki bad guy, Hiro made betamax a new program card in addition to his wellness one. He put aggression and karate on it. That's about all. It's why he removed the wellness card mid fight later on and the robot went crazy killing machine mode.

    I'm in the same boat. Never played Smash before, but I asked my wife to get it for me as a Christmas present.

    Wii U

    My favorite (looking) map right now is the old west one from the new Link DLC. It's a great map. Aside from that, the Link world one is beautiful, and the little purple diamonds instead of coins are a nice touch.

    Health Problems

    So, my health problems are still fun. I have Multiple Sclerosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis and a blood disorder called Factor Five Leiden (the opposite of Hemophilia... I clot easily). I found out yesterday that no life insurance company will touch me with a 10 foot pole. That's really fucked up...

    Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

    I've made my life into a completely porn free lifestyle. It's kind of nice. My mind is a lot more active now. Yes, you might occasionally see things (I'm on the internet, after all), but I no longer search it out. It's been about a year now, and I really don't think I'm going to swap back.

    Big Hero 6 (Marvel/Disney)

    Wall-E was awesome, as was the first Cars. PIXAR does a great job of making you care about objects that are not people. Up was extremely sad in the beginning.. showing the guy meeting the love of his life and then her dieing like that. Wasn't expecting such a tragic opening. Didn't care...

    This isn't really a Black Friday deal, but it's a deal none the less. Groupon is selling standard PS4 units for full price. $399. However, if you use the gift code "SALE", you get a quick $40 off. So PS4 for $359 + tax. Sony 500GB PlayStation4 Console | Groupon

    Unfortunately, there aren't any "cheap" theaters near us. There's 5ish movie theaters within a 30 minute drive, yet none of them even offer matinee prices. Everything is full price or go home. It really sucks.

    I haven't shop lifted since early high school... when I stole a starter deck of Marvel Overpower playing cards from Walmart. It was such a rush. If I recall, they caught me, but didn't do a strip search. They just took me in the back of the room, but I kept the cards because they didn't find...

    Wayne Static dead at 48

    I saw Static X open for Fear Factory and Disturbed in the basement of a church in Scranton, PA. This was back in like '98 range. It was a REALLY cool concert experience. The walls/floor of the basement were concrete. It was so fucking loud, but the entire area was a mosh pit. And if I...

    This wasn't "Pixar" though. It was just Disney Animations Studios. Pixar's next movie is something called Inside Out. Wiki has this as a description: "Riley is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Riley (Kaitlyn Dias) is guided by her emotions -...

    I'm about 1/2 way through Fate Zero now. Last night I saw the episode where Rider and Saber sit down to drink wine and then Archer joins them followed by Assassin trying to crash the party. I really liked the episode.

    Homeland

    They did a REALLY good job of showing Carrie's mental state with the way they shot this. Between focusing on the minor sounds and random "jumpy" footage, plus the spiraling when she was having a complete breakdown. It really put you in her mind set. Good job.

    Baltimore Ravens cheerleader rapes 15 year old boy

    Doug Stanhope had a bit about this. He was with a 20 year old when he was 16. They had anal. He went on to say that "she raped me with her own asshole." It was pretty funny. We're a fucked up society right now.
