    Everquest Mysteries

    Between sisters for purity belts, cyclopes for gems, and sirens, I probably spent more time in OOT than any other zone on various characters.

    Whiskey

    My friend is a big scotch drinker, and I'd like to buy him a bottle for his birthday. He seems to prefer highland scotch, but he enjoys them all. I'd like to get something he hasn't had before. He buys a lot, especially from some of the more well-known ones like McCallan, Glenmorangie...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    They need to just turn Batman Arkham Asylum, City, and Origins into movies. The scripts for the entire trilogy are basically already written. DC needs to realize that no one gives a shit about Batman's origin story. Take a lesson from Sony/Marvel with Spiderman and just jump into the action.

    Aladdin (2019)

    This was better than expected based on the trailers. I watched the original a couple days before seeing this, so it was fresh in my mind and made for easy comparisons. I think they did a fantastic job casting everyone other than Jafar. The dude who played Aladdin looks like a human cartoon...

    I know all that. If I were making logical choices I wouldn't get married at all.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I want to get a real stone, even if it's small. She doesn't care, but family/friends/society have a perception of lab grown being "fake," and I don't want her to have to deal with that. I was looking into doing an emerald (her birthstone) instead of a diamond, but I've read that they are too...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I'm going to be buying an engagement ring soon. I know she won't give a shit about the size or price; the only thing she'll care about is that it's not a conflict/blood or whatever diamond. As I'm reading around online I keep seeing things about how you can't really be sure about origin. I've...

    Seasons 1 and 2 were really short, weren't they? Like 3 episodes each also or something. British stuff is always shorter. Anyway, super pumped. Although not sure about Miley Cyrus.

    My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Romania this summer in late July/early August. We'll be flying in to Bucharest and we'll have 2 weeks in the country. Any suggestions on must-see stuff? I don't know much about the country, so I'm really open and curious. We're the type of travelers...

    There is definitely a taste and texture difference between lasagnas made with cottage cheese vs. ricotta. My extended family does lasagnas on Christmas Eve every year, and for as long as I can remember we've always had 4 lasagnas: 2 made by my redneck aunt with cottage cheese, and 2 made by my...

    This time I was just passing through on my way up to Pittsburgh. However, I head up to Flying Dog a few times a year. I love Frederick. Now that I realized there are Waffle Houses up in that area I have even more reason to go.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I came here to complain about the fucking stupid battle strategy. Not disappointed. What the fuck? It's like playing a Total War battle and clicking "Start Battle" immediately without doing the deployment phase. I'm generally really forgiving of plot holes and nitpicks when stuff like this is...

    Not as good as Infinity War but still a perfect wrap up of the last 10 years. I thought it started off pretty slowly but it picked up steam quickly.

    I thought the KFC buffets were gone. At least, I haven't seen one in MD since the 90s. However, I've been in Minnesota these last couple days and I've seen half a dozen. WTB some down in civilization.

    I was recently introduced to Oh Snap! pickled products. They use little-to-no brine, so they're awesome for getting your pickle on while driving. I've tried all the varieties, and these are my favorites. They're also stupid expensive of course.

    Us (2019)

    The lack of explanation makes it better in my opinion. Imagination runs wild filling in all the gaps you mentioned. Just like movie monsters are scarier before you actually see them fully. I agree with most that this was good but not quite as good as get out. Could have been a bit shorter and...

    These are awesome. They've been mentioned here a few times. I had some just recently when my girlfriend brought some back from New Orleans. I've never seen them in the MD/DC area, although I'd love to find them.

    I never said Subway is inherently healthier. I said it's one of the best places to get low calorie, filling meals. This is true. You can get a footlong sandwich like turkey or black forest ham, a million veggies, and mustard for 600 - 700 calories depending on the meat and bread. It's hard to...

    Subway is one of the best fast food places, if not the best, to get low calorie, filling meals that are also pretty nutritious. You can get a footlong sub with meat and as many veggies as you want for around 600 calories. Compare that to a typical fast food hamburger that tends to be way smaller...

    I found these Doritos Flamas at a shithole Royal Farms over the weekend. They're basically Doritos Blaze with a hint of lime flavor. The lime does a nice job of cutting the heat from the Blaze. Definitely give them a try if you're in a diverse area and see them.

    This game is kicking my ass. It's "fun" in that it's different from what I'm used to play, but god damn is it hard. I also feel the need to try and keep every single soldier I have alive, which seems pretty hard to do.

    BJs is great for the same reason Cheesecake Factory is great: massive portions. You don't go to either one for quality food. You go for mountains of it. Anyway, neither one is that bad. No worse than any other casual chain restaurant.

    I was with colleagues so I couldn't get as much as I wanted. I got a double waffle, a large hashbrowns with jalapenos, biscuits and gravy, and some kind of bowl things filled with various breakfast foods. I ended up hitting The Varsity as well. I liked it. Chili cheese dogs/burgers are hard to...

    I really enjoyed this. It was fun and it had a good pace; I never got bored or felt that it dragged. All the acting was fine and right on par with other mid-upper tier marvel movies. Lots of great connections to the bigger universe as well.

    I finally tucked into this last night on the SNES. I've never played any tactics game, so the genre is new to me. That said, although I'm only about an hour in, I find it to be fairly intuitive. In terms of story, all the character and place names that are tossed around at the beginning is...
