    DOTA 2

    I'd second this. The players are young, ignorant to real life (in most cases), and probably aren't well equipped to handle the shit that's going on and the international attention. Professional athletes have coaches on the field and off for things like; finances, mental health, family health...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    @Kiroy Companies like BMW have exhaust and engine sounds piped in through the sound system of the car to "enhance" the experience. But, it's doesn't sound natural and many people disconnect that function. The Mustang thing in question is different; butterfly valves in the exhaust open and close...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    New RS5 can be had for $80,000 roughly. In that range, I'm not buying that car and I don't think many others would either. The "S" models seem to be more bang-for-the-buck and priced a bit more reasonably considering what they pack. New interiors and screens are awesome, though. Agree that the...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Well....I dunno. Cars are my biggest passion and all of them are loud and fast. But, there are times when I'm on the highway for a work trip and I need to talk on the phone and I wouldn't mind a quieter drive. Or, when my lady is with me and we're trying to talk and not taking her car. And, if I...

    Lots of car manufacturers are moving to Cylon faces (Toyota/Lexus being the worst).

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    Reread all of: Eisenhorn trilogy, Ravenor trilogy. Currently rereading all of: Gaunt's Ghosts. Wish Abnett would write more, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's burned out. These books fill the gap while waiting for: The Name of the Wind and LightBringer sequels.

    I'm 13 months into a billing dispute after a surgery. Shit sucks bro. Pretty sure this bullshit has affected my credit too, dropping me out of the 800s.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Can someone explain to me why they chose to have Karl's character wield M16's in this day and age? I get that when the stories were made the writers/artists probably didn't have a great idea for weapons and they were like "herp derp; guns!". But, in 2017? Come on.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Doesn't seem like a reasonable division of the budget to give $200-freakin-million to RDJ.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Sold. Love it. Please take my money. It'll be refreshing to see a movie that WANTS to be a fun time. Not something that tries to pander to every whiny, bleeding-heart subculture or precious snowflake.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Bro, unless you are causing permanent harm to your child, I won't be the least bit phased with a spanking. Sometimes it's what works. On this flight, the parents genuinely ignored their fucking kid and let him be a piece of shit for hours. Maybe they're sick of the little shit? Maybe they're...

    OK, I'm hooked; where the fuck do you work? Is it white-collar corporate, or fast food? Today's gripe: fucking 3 year old in the seat behind me on the plane (who the hell books a flight with 3 kids in business class?) fucking around with the tray table and crying when he doesn't get his way...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Ahh. Yeah, I imagine it's much harder to corner with a tire like that on a bike. I think if I was going to have an "around town bike with 150cc, I'd go with a Super Moto of some kind. Way better at jumping curbs and doing wheelies =)

    What vehicle do you drive?

    But, the tire isn't fat, it's stretched well beyond it's intended width. If you wanted a wide tire, why not put on a.....wide tire? It's like me trying to put a 205 section on my 13" wheel, when it should be a 335 section tire. How peppy are those scooters? 35-45 mph?

    Those little bastards look really cool - and expertly done - minus the hella tyte stretched tire. Please don't do that nonsense. 1,000 miles per week is ridiculous. I love driving, but I think I'd lose that love having to run around that much....at 20mpg...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I'll echo these comments; the CTS (V or V-Sport) will handle well, be plenty quick, but have a terrible interior compared to the higher end German cars. As much as I loved the gen 2 CTS-V (Wagon, blue, 6spd) I'm over the looks. I'd personally choose a car with curves. Reliability should be fine...

    It's a nearly identical shape, that's for sure. But, the bone structure doesn't seem like it would be like that on a Xeno. Eye sockets throw me, I guess.

    Was just about to post something similar. The Knight looks awesome, but the surfaces need depth. Ink wash for shading the recesses and some dry brushing and highlights for the edges. Then, it would look complete. For my large models, I often had the base done in the terrain we played on, along...

    Don't use treated wood. If you have to, use a composite material and liner.

    Well.....shit. That's a terrible situation. Those kids are going to be fucked up and have awful lives, most likely. I'd suggest a lot of night classes at a local community college, then getting the fuck out of there.

    That many 'Nids will take for-fucking-ever. And, it's about half to 1/3rd of what you'll need. They're one of my past 40k armies. I used much too fancy of a paint scheme, ugh.

    If you can help the guy and bring a little justice to it, you should seriously consider taking it up with someone who can make a decision. If what you're saying is true, I'm genuinely pissed off and would love to see a proper resolution.

    Oh...I got 2 of mine for under invoice. Maybe that's because in New England they are common and move a lot more inventory. Every market is a little different.

    Subaru isn't dying and it's isn't "late to the party". What you're seeing, is trickle-down from expensive brands into a car that is VERY affordable and VERY reliable. Just because the MB S Class had _______ first, doesn't mean every other car is behind the curve. Subaru sells in a certain market...

    Actually, the enthusiasts market is growing every year, not shrinking. People have just had to shift away from affordable Japanese sports cars (new purchases) and into more European cars. And, the aftermarket is thriving more than ever in America and around the world as well. It would be a...
