  1. I laughed at the poll Which game do you hope Project Eternity is most like? Call of Duty obviously
  2. We had kimchi tacos again last night The missus loved them so much she wanted them again the next night
  3. Hmm, as someone who never does space missions or much PvP I hope that there is more to the expansion
  4. Best game yet with only 4 turnovers but I did cheat the difficulty level down a level to 2 of 5 (Pro) instead of the default 3 of 5 (All Star) Problem now that everything else is just way too easy and no team is a challenge anymore Back to trying to figure out the sliders or better yet see if anyone has a working table on the CheatEngine forums
  5. When is that coming out for real? Not really interested in beta testing it
  6. Bras Make Breasts "Saggier", 15-year French Study Reveals
  7. PS I know it may sound a little weird but my skeptical wife is now begging me to make it again sometime soon
  8. Sure thing It's much bulgogi, pico de gallo, and lettuce topped with a kimchi slaw (pretty much just chopped up kimchi) and then drizzled with a sriracha cream sauce all on a corn tortilla I used to eat the heck out of them when I lived in NYC but the Korean or Korean fusion food scene in Denver is pretty weak
  9. I had a good laugh posting it because my browser kept telling me all the "oUr" spellings were incorrect
  10. Waitress Receives a Lottery Ticket as a Tip, Wins $17,500
  11. To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II In light of your failure to financially manage yourselves and inability to effectively govern yourselves responsibly, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up ‘revocation’ in the Oxford English Dictionary.) Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas, which she does not fancy). Your new Prime Minister, David William Donald Cameron, will appoint a Governor for the former United States of America without the need for further elections. Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated sometime next year to determine whether any of you noticed. To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect: You will learn that the suffix ˜burgh” is pronounced “burra”; you may elect to spell Pittsburgh as ˜Pittsberg” if you find you simply can’t cope with correct pronunciation. Then look up “aluminum” and check the pronunciation guide. You will be amazed at just how wrongly you have been pronouncing it. The letter “U” will be reinstated in words such as ˜colour”, “favour” and “neighbour”. Likewise, you will learn to spell “doughnut” without skipping half the letters. Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels (look up “vocabulary”). Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises such as “like” and “you know” is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as “US English”. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take account of the reinstated letter “u”. You will relearn your original national anthem, “God Save The Queen”, but only after fully carrying out Task #1 (see above). July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you’re not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be handled by adults and then used solely for shooting grouse. If you’re not adult enough to sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you’re not ready to handle a gun, let alone shoot grouse. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. A permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public. All American cars are hereby banned. They are crap and this is for your own good. When we show you German cars, you will understand what we mean. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour. The former United States of America will adopt the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland prices on petrol (which you have been calling “gasoline”) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it. You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French Fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with malt vinegar. Waiters and waitresses will be trained to be more aggressive with customers. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling “beer” is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as Lager. New Zealand beer is also acceptable, as New Zealand is pound for pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth – see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat’s Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters. Watching Andie Macdowell attempt English dialogue in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one’s ears removed with a cheese grater. You will cease playing “American” Football. There are only two kinds of proper football; one you call soccer, and rugby. Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American Football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies or Jessies – English slangs for effeminate males and blouses for big girls respectively). Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the “World Series” for a game which is not played outside of the United States of America. Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. You will learn cricket. You must tell us who killed JFK. It’s been driving us mad. An inland revenue agent (i.e. tax collector) from Her Majesty’s Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all monies due (backdated to 1776). Daily Tea Time begins promptly at 4 p.m. with proper cups, with saucers, and never mugs, with high quality biscuits (cookies) and cakes; plus strawberries (with cream) when in season. Thank you for your cooperation.
  12. Highlights of my last game 29 points 5 assists 12 turnovers most of my turnover where just from either driving in or going up with the ball and getting stripped which happens to me constantly even though now I've maxed out ball security, dribbling, and off hand dribbling I've been cheating to try to pad my assist stat by dishing the ball a couple of seconds before the shot clock expires but as you can see by the 5 that I got last game it hasn't been very successful
  13. or they really, really didn't want Romney I know my wife begged me to vote for Obama as a vote against Romney. I was going to vote Johnson or Stein and since I was throwing my vote away anyway... happy wife, happy life
  14. Just had my best assist game against Boston and my team is now 4-4 18 mins 23 points 8-16 from the floor 2-5 3pts 5-5 ft 8 ast 5 to 2 stls I've been browsing the interwebs on the line and it looks like I'm not the only one having issues getting assists. The defense has been "improved" and for the most part it's not bad but they strip the ball and deflect passes like crazy
  15. Fried egg, maple bacon, and chipotle cheddar on a toasted English muffin for the missus And garden scrambled eggs with parmesan and pancetta for me
  16. The defense seems to be a lot better at stopping the pass inside and even with my calling the plays my team seems to stand around a lot more Also, even when I hit the open man or the defense breaks down my teammates tend to put the ball on the court instead of go up with it... and I'm on the Magic and they can't shoot. My last game Vucevic missed 5 in a row right under the basket and ended up going 4 for 13. Worst part is that since it's MyCareer mode I can't even adjust the sliders I might just abandon all hope of getting assists and just try to score 30 or more every game because even with my shooting not being great I can get to the foul line 5 to 10 times a game now
  17. I'm settling in for a disappointing season from the Nuggets this year
  18. Started over in NBA 2K14 because I really don't want to play for the Celtics I did better in the Rookie Showcase this time around and went 2nd in the draft to the Magic. They really suck but at least I am getting most of my minutes at the point. I am noticing that scoring seems easier(including getting to the foul line) and defense and assists have become much harder and my turnovers have more than doubled. It's not unusual for my stats to look like this 25+ points 1 or 2 boards 5 assists 1 steal 5 or 6 turnovers then to compare I switched to my PG in 2K13 and after playing a handful of games my stats look like this 20 points 2 rebounds 13 assists 3 steals 2 turnovers
