  1. I think a more competent writer/director maybe could have pulled Luke's TLJ arc but to me it was far too inconsistent with the Luke we knew before that wouldn't give up on his sand hating, youngling slaying father who he watched kill his mentor and who mutilated him. To me it felt too forced and not believable. Too drastic of a change of a well established character So basically, I thought it was poorly done and I didn't like it.
  2. So what you're saying is that it's not a good idea to fly your space ship into lightsaber range? That's so crazy it just might work!
  3. I laughed pretty hard on a second viewing of the trailer. When Rey does the back flip I heard Fat Bastard's voice saying "I hope my wire-fighting team is ready!" Thought now I guess the main takeaway is that I hear voices.
  4. I enjoyed the story more in the first game and the mechanics more in the second
  5. 1/3 of first month then 8% every month after
  6. A town is being haunted by mysterious mashed potatoes — and no one knows who is putting them there
  7. I really enjoyed the Orville last night but I was expecting some slightly larger repercussions. Though seeing as how the show hasn't been afraid to go back to threads they've left dangling maybe something major will finally happen.
  8. I think that the passing of the torch is one of the things the movies (especially the second one) have done the worst at and the trailer really reminded me of that.
  9. Similar units to ours in neighboring apartments can go for over $3200 and in our own building the unit below us is renting for $2800 and the one below that for $2600. Same floor plan but no view and only 1 parking spot. A 1 bedroom on the first floor going for $2500 and the cheapest and smallest one for $2300 and they want to list us at $2480. I thought we could get the same as the unit below us and if we don't get any bites then move down from there and my wife thinks we can get even more but I think part of it is just emotional investment or a point of pride. I just don't want it to cost me money, that's all I care about.
  10. Wife is really upset the property management company doesn't think the condo will rent for what she thinks it should go for. I think she's going about the whole thing all wrong but whatever, I guess it'll make her feel better to try to convince them they are wrong instead of either ignoring their recommendation or finding a new company.
  11. More piling on BioWare's Future: Destroy (EA), Control (Going Solo) Or Synthesis (New Publisher)
  12. So gimme your top starting 5 I'd take Larry Legend over LeBron every day of the week and twice on Sunday and especially with the game on the line. Slotting him into another position and he is going to be behind any of the players on my list. And Stockton, yep, I'd go Stockton over Magic. Just came across this nugget. One of the few times I agree with both Skip and Stephen A Sorry for the poor quality, I couldn't find an official version of this on ESPN's channel. James' people must have gotten to it. That's the only answer, couldn't possibly be that my google fu sucks
  13. My all time starting 5 John Stockton Michael Jordan Larry Bird Tim Duncan I have a hard time with the 5 because I'm torn between Lew Alcindor and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
  14. Malibu Black is a little stronger at 70 proof but I just like the taste better
  15. I don't even know the last time I've shaved with a razor now. I'm pretty much always somewhere between 5 o'clock shadow and struggle beard nowadays. What bugs me though is if my hair gets too long on the sides. If it touches my ears I freak out for some reason (probably just being a weirdo) and I have to keep it cut short.
  16. I haven't had much alcohol until recently and I've noticed that I'm having a hard time getting a light buzz. I've nearly killed a bottle of Malibu Black (regular Malibu rum is too sweet) and a bottle of Kraken. I'm not trying to brag about tolerance or anything as I'm still getting some of the negative effects of alcohol just not getting any of the good ones except for the delicious taste of both coconut and spiced rums. Could it be some interaction with medication?
  17. Cold and snow are bad. So those months are the debil.
  18. I missed that Magic resigned yesterday. I wonder if Pelinka is next.
  19. Let me know when I can Barclay it up in the holodeck
  20. The poster GM. Regular on the old BIS boards, more a lurker/occasional visitor these days. It was... just a lame joke. Like this one: Why don't ants go to church? Why?
  21. Was watching some old videos of The Dream going to work Bonus shot of Trump as the celebrity camera man around the 5:30 mark
