The New Drinking Thread
It's generally recommended to add a little water to Scotch to open it up but I still drink it neat or a drop of water or tiny sliver of ice at most.

The New Drinking Thread
I drink it neat but I drink pretty much all liquor neat unless I'm making a mixed drink. This rum is much easier going down any other that I've tried because I can swig this one like I'm a pirate.

Now that my wife is home I finally saw Orville episode 9 and that's easily the best episode of Star Trek in the last 20 or so years

Food Thread - Obsidian Gormand's Edition
I like a lot of starchy mush like oatmeal, cream of wheat, rice, grits, mashataters Growing up it was a lot of rice with butter and sugar because it's cheap and it keeps and useful in more ways than oats or grits

I prefer plain grits, well, not plain-plain, but no meat or veggies or cheese. I'm an admitted weirdo though.

Food Thread - Obsidian Gormand's Edition
Reported Assuming it's the sausage gravy that you find unappealing as opposed to the biscuit. American biscuit not a cookie or cracker or whatever wrong people (I kid) call a biscuit. It's super heavy so I rarely eat it but when I do I like it with over easy eggs and sometimes hot sauce.

The New Cinema and Movie Thread
Ignorance is definitely bliss when it comes to movie inaccuracies. Thankfully, there isn't much archery in the movie and none of it is mounted, though it does look a little strange even without knowing it's completely wrong. As for the CGI, a lot of it does not look that good but like KP I think that the animals being there works better for the story they're trying to tell.

The New Cinema and Movie Thread
I liked Prey a lot and pretty much none of the issues people mention bothered me at all. It's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination but it's one of the better movies I've seen recently.

Thanks for that. I'd seen the Red Hot Chili Peppers version but I liked this one so much more.

Prey was really good but I was disappointed by the lack of a giant spider in the 3rd act

Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous, Part 4
Stayed up all night and beat Through the Ashes. I liked it, much harder than the base game but that's also probably way easier to do with only about 5 or 6 levels and a very linear gameplay.

Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous, Part 4
I was goofing off and made a Trickster going all into CHA and persuasion and getting the Trickster Persuasion 3 feat. It's hilarious watching almost everybody either freeze or kill themselves when they attack me.
