Add The Bard's Tale 4.

I'd like to see T-Dot make it a series too, but the way they choked away game 1 was such a stomach punch that I think they may just be mentally broken.

BGE2 will likely be just another standard homogenized Ubisoft open world game. That's not to say that those games are bad, they're usually fairly good, it's just that they're all nearly exactly the same.

The Celtics just keep finding ways to win. That's one incredibly resilient team.

Nice, are you going to learn how to handle dollytrailers aswell or are you skipping that? I'm not well versed in the US rules when it comes to trailer combinations so I don't know if they're even allowed. The most common combination here is a swapbody with a dollytrailer but from what I understand that's not allowed outside of scandinavia? I'm not completely sure what swapbodies are. There is a separate endorsement you can get to be able to pull double trailers (or triple), which involves hooking up what's called a dolly over here, which is basically just a 5th wheel on an axle that allows you to hook up a second and potentially third trailer. I'm probably not going to get it right away, because the company I'm going with to start doesn't really run doubles, but it's something I plan to get in the future. I'm definitely going to try to get my HazMat (Hazardous Materials) endorsement before I graduate, though. The nice thing about that is that I can take the HazMat test at any DMV in the state, so I can take it when I'm home on the weekend or something. You do have to get fingerprinted and have a background check run to get a HazMaz endorsement, but I can do that right here in Charlotte.

So what are you reversing with I then ask? Also, mirrors or out the window? A Volvo truck and a 53' box trailer. For now I've only done the straight back up and the offset, both of those I mainly just use the mirrors. I'll probably pop my head out of the window a lot more for the 90° back up, but I haven't gotten to that yet.

I would be really excited for RDR2 if I wasn't convinced it will have microtransactions up the wazoo.

Do yourself a favor, if you do play Fire Emblem, play it the old school way, with permadeath, and don't save scum unless you lose an insane amount of characters in a single mission. Dealing with attrition is part of the appeal to me and it makes battles really tense and those situations where a character seemingly destined to die miraculously survives all the more rewarding.

That's part of the season pass. Also part of the season pass is the day 1 pee into a cup at the clinic DLC.

I've been playing American Truck Simulator all week. I'm still in the tutorial where I'm doing a bunch of class room stuff, but yesterday I did get my permit so now I'm also getting in the actual trucks and practicing backing up in the yard. I can't wait until I get my CDL and the real game begins.

Man, that was a pretty rough choke by T-Dot last night. How do you recover from that?

That was a great performance by King James and an exciting game.

The Celtics move on to round 2 and earn the right to get steamrolled by Sixersmania. Even before the playoffs started I was of the mind that Brad Stevens should be coach of the year, that team had no business earning a 2 seed after losing their second best player 5 minutes into the season then losing their best player for the last quarter of the season (in addition to having as much as nearly half their roster on injured reserve at various parts of the season). They had even less business moving on to the conference semis. I think Brad Stevens is the best coach in the NBA right now, and I say that as a guy who thinks Pop is the greatest coach of all time. That said, I don't think even Brad Stevens' coaching can make up for the ridiculous disparity in talent between the depleted Celtics and the Sixers, who are the most talented team in the east, and they know it and have the swagger to go with it. Sixersmania is running wild and I don't think anyone in the east can stop them. They are loaded, they are playing like they know they are loaded, and they are peaking at the right time (I think they've lost a total of 1 (ONE!) game in the past month and a half or so. Barring injury, they're going to The Finals IMHO.

If I had it all to do over again and I could be anything I wanted I would be a Jazz musician, hands down. Sure, I wouldn't get the crazy money and fame that a pop musician does, given that Jazz hasn't been mainstream for 60 years, if not longer, but I wouldn't want superstar fame. I don't think I could handle being recognized literally everywhere I went, whereas as a Jazz musician I could still make a decent living AND play amazing music AND be able to (mostly) live a normal life. As an aside, the bass guitarist looks like he's about to have several strokes. Then again, when you're jamming out that hard, I feel like you have the right to make whatever facial gestures and body contortions you so well please. It's like when a 80s metal guitarist goes into a killer guitar solo and starts performing, what can only be described as, oral sex to his guitar. Normally that would be really weird, but since he's shredding so ****ing hard, it's a really appropriate gesture.

Cheer up Volo, LeBron can begin his quest for another title anew next year when he's on the Lakers. And, he'll have PG13 there to help him!

Today I finished my last day at my former job. Monday I start CDL training classes. 3 to 4 weeks after that I start...

Donovan Mitchell tho.

Cavs/Pacers is going to game 7. This has been a hell of a series.

I'm just going to go ahead and assume those were Russians Lara murdered in that trailer, it's what she does.

The Boys picked up Leighton Vander Esch, a big inside linebacker with good pass coverage abilities.

My condolences to Baker Mayfield for being selected by the Browns.

I'm about 50/50 on whether I play a male or a female character, given the choice. As far as whether I play a sexualized looking character, it depends on the tone of the game. If the game has a serious or grimdark tone then I prefer fit and/or muscular characters wearing practical clothing/armor that look like they could realistically survive or thrive in the game world. If the tone of the game is tongue in cheek or silly then I'm all for playing a sexy or ridiculous looking character. If it fits the tone of the game then I have no issue whatsoever playing a sexy female warrior wearing a super skimpy chain bikini that she looks like she's about to spill out of.

Sixersmania rolls on into the second round.
