    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I'd heard the same thing, and on subsequent re-reads, that is probably one of my favorite books. I does get better though, so if you're enjoying book 1 just wait... These were pretty great books, and its frankly astonishing he was able to write so many at such a high quality.

    The Final Fantasy Mega Thread - Now playing FFXV

    Having a hard time holding out starting this - I just know myself too well, if I start it on a week night I'll fall all the way down the rabbit hole and will look up at 5 am covered in fucking queso and beer stains..... But waiting on a game since I was in my 20's has me itching to play. If I...

    Ole Big Game Bob? Ya I remember that SOB! I've tried to get on the OU bandwagon when they aren't playing Okie State (I actually cheered for them last year against Clemson) but it's hard, especially living in Oklahoma. You can only hear so much Dean Blevins and Al/Jim before you lose your mind my...

    Watched the movie just now, not great but probably better than the Warcraft film. Glad I watched it, going to wait until Friday to dig in

    College Football 2016-2017 Season

    Ah Genji, you sweet summer child. If that CMU game had happened to OU or Texas, I have absolutely zero doubt that they'd be sitting this week at 5/6 in the playoff ranking with a strong shot at sneaking in pending a victory this weekend. As it is though, Okie State, TCU, Baylor, WVU etc will...

    Ya Liftopia is good - the problem is you'll be hard pressed to find tix under that price at most major resorts retail. Wife and I went to Aspen again last winter during X Games and I got sticker shock for the first time in my entire life, anywhere (and I'd been to Aspen before in college...

    Can't agree with this more - Just #westworld on twitter after an episode to prove this true. For us it seems like it's way too obvious, but that doesn't ring true for the slobbering mass of humanity watching this show every week. For fun, when GOT comes back #GOT after an episode, grab your...

    The Final Fantasy Mega Thread - Now playing FFXV

    Decent reviews so far, seems like you need to watch the movie/anime though to get to grips with the first part of the story. Not going to bother with those, just going to wing the game manana.

    GG Ravens, most satisfying win of the season imo. Dak was superb, as was Dez. Thursday should be entertaining

    Dak picking ravens apart now. Started game a little excited but two great drives in a row. Think OL can start leaning on ravens now a bit

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Whether Romo is better or not is irrelevant (he is, obviously). More relevant to me is the team's chemistry, which is as good as it has been in 20+ years and the notion that throwing Romo back in there now to give the team a better chance of winning is fucking absurd. They're winning. Against...

    Man, I'm desperate for this game to be good but I think there is maybe a 20% chance of that happening. I get the Square is tight lipped about things, but what little we've seen of this so far looks pretty meh to me. Would love to be wrong of course...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Was pretty tempted on the Turbo, but optioned out it was approaching $100k so I talked myself out of that one pretty easily, hehe. I also really liked the GTS, but it's not much quicker than the S I just bought and this thing is plenty quick for my wife - frankly, probably too quick. Definitely...

    Driving this little beautiful beast home to the wife in a few minutes. I love her, but she's a crap driver and destroyed her X5 into somebodies fucking mailbox..... Anyways, I told her that her next car would be a downgrade (after test driving like 10 small/midsize SUV's) and she was cool with...

    Go work for a Major oil company in their M&A/MLP groups and make just as much money and have no stress. I know there are plenty of fuck face Goldman/Macquarie/JP Morgan guys working at Phillips 66, Exxon, Chevron, Shell, & BP right now who would never look back at banking, and the dividends...

    Good point, forgot that scene. Wonder if the other employees have the power to "activate that" or if it really is just Ford. Either way, it seems they don't have that innate through programming so the girl with the scalpel wouldn't exactly be like facing down T1000.

    The part I really didn't get was the scalpel being used as some sort of terrifying weapon to placate the fat one. Maybe all the robots are terminators deep down with super human strength etc, (which could be reasonable, excepting that they've shown nothing of that so far with MiB/Maeve/Dolores...

    That's totally what's been going on so far, page after page of attacking a show everyone likes enough to post about on a video game message board. Derp. Last thing we need is this to turn into the GOT thread with Astro running around telling everyone who doesn't like an episode, or plot...

    No show should be above criticism - especially one you enjoy. This is a great show but last night was not a strong episode. It actually didn't really even "feel" like the same show so no surprise this was one of the episodes filmed after the hiatus. I just hope they can wrap up the story line in...
