    Thanks, but I literally just watched a Down with the Sickness video 15 minutes ago with someone who actually takes their shirt off (was pretty funny and came up with a good alternative drum track):

    A few butt pucker close calls here for the police. I think running from police is a Challenger car thing, kinda like Jeep ducks... yeah, I'm sure that's it. Total video is ~12 min: Spoiler for those that want to enjoy going in blind for the thrill of the chase:

    Everquest Legends

    THJ was releasing xpacs at a faster clip until PoP came out and they touched every item with custom stats for the two higher tiers (normal > rare > epic loot). So this slower release schedule should be enough time to do same in Legends, even if these people only have half the talent of the THJ...

    My bad, I read it more like "Their latest games have been shit, but thinking about it, all of them were shit except FONV, so it must have been a fluke."

    Wat?! Kotor 2 was good outside of the rushed ending (fixed with mods). Storm of Zaire wasn't bad and Mask of the Betrayer was a masterpiece (both NwN2 xpacs). Tyrany was great, outside the rushed ending. Stick of Truth was good for what it was (a JRPG). Finally Pillars of Eternity 1/2 weren't...

    Moving from Hawaii

    If you have experience in grocery stuff, HEB has cultivated a reputation of treating their employees well, unlike WalMart. They copied Walmart's distribution strategy where they build a large warehouse hub first then expand stores. It's how they originally competed with Walmart in Texas and, in...

    They didn't put any of the good trash skipping AA in the game? Rogue super sneak is probably the best, but bard and monk both have a good insta agro drop. I couldn't have handled playing THJ without one of them.

    Yeah, no idea on the exacts and not sure how big around the tenderloin can get, off the pig. Obviously for something like that to be a single piece of meat you would want the largest circumference tenderloins that you can get, before it goes into the pneumatic press or rollers. Not sure if...

    Doesn't look like AI, as I have seen a few at a state fair that were almost that size, decades ago. AFAIK anything that big is made with those big fancy rolling machines or press to get them down to a consistent quarter inch thickness or less before the breading goes on. Anything with that type...

    It's called a giant pork tenderloin sandwich or fried pork tenderloin sandwich. They are a big midwestern thing and you can buy them premade frozen from various markets up there (in addition to restaurants/restaurant supply companies). At one time they were just a bit larger than the bun, and in...

    It's not that difficult to find a black actress that looks better than Lupita Nyong'o, so the bar isn't that high. Pretty much every one on this list: IMDB Black under 30. Not that any of them should be in this movie. Here is the girl from GoT in 2025:

    No clue how they do the backend but it's possible certain dungeons spin up to certain servers. So say Unrest, Crushbone, Mistmoore, and Befallen all spin up to the same server, which is overloaded, but Blackburrow, Permafrost, Runneyeye, and Sol A spin up to a different server that's less crowded.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    If you use instancing you are obligated to implement raid finder story difficulty like vanilla BC WotLK Cata Panda WoW. Sorry, I don't make the rules.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I've not heard of raid finder being referred to as zerging before and it doesn't make much sense in relation to how the term was originally used. I assumed you meant zerging outdoor, non-instanced bosses once they instituted personal loot in Legion; where everyone that hits the boss gets their...

    IMO Might and Magic X was a better blobber than Grimrock, for something a bit more modern (like Grimrock). Outside of that, Wizardry 8 is still worth playing through, if you want that old school Eye of the Beholder experience. I don't remember how many puzzles are in either, but you can always...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    There are some rare times where you can get a fair price from the dealer (when you hardly take a hit when driving it off the lot). Seen some prices like that in similar circumstances, where the cars were the previous year model, it was at high volume dealer, and the car buying season had just...

    It looks really nice, but begs the question of why fence off your front yard like that. I see some nice raised gardens, were locals fucking with those? In every city I've lived in, houses with a full size front yard fence screams high crime area, no matter how nice the fence looks. At least...

    GTA 6 is a MMO? The collectors edition of a single player game should certainly have actual disks (even if I think collector editions are marketing bullshit made for retards with a hoarder mentality).

    House of the Dragon

    If you're going to watch this season, it's probably best to just do a YouTube summary, as season 2 got pretty stupid. I would also wait until this season is over to see if the writers somehow turned their clusterfuck around. Going from a fading memory of a mediocre show, the main issues of...

    I like beans and see no reason not to use them. I generally rotate between Black, Kidney, Cannellini, and Garbanzo (pick 3). I don't care all that much about keeping "traditional" foods, if it makes them taste inferior (pineapple on pizza makes me sick because I don't like heavy pineapple taste).

    For a global company that I thought was a competitor with EA, I was wondering what he was doing in a "poor" persons plane... That's a turboprop, not even one of the "cheap" private jets, like a Citation. Wonder if Ubislop sold all their jets and that's the best he could get due to flopping out...

    I had an aunt who always added it to pulled pork and she ran a small local restaurant in the Midwest that would sell it; so enough people liked the recipe for that to work. I used to make that recipe, but these days I don't like a sweet BBQ sauce at all (or use sugar in savory dishes) and...

    I love Cinnamon in sweet dishes and went through a phase, in my youth, were I tried it in savory dishes, including chili and pulled pork BBQ. While I don't hate it, I would never do that to my own food these days.
