NFL 2014 Season
Unsurprisingly, the Cowboys lost again with Romo out. I had that down as a loss before the game even started, as soon as I knew Romo was out, so I'm not really disappointed. Weeden is still as awful as he's always been. Hopefully Romo is back next game because the Cowboys ain't going nowhere with The Doop at QB.

What you having for dinner tonight?
If giving meat a name stopped you eating it, what would become of Jesus? Oh it wouldn't stop me. I have no qualms about the taste of fried rabbit just because it had a name. However... some folks who live in my house are more sentimental than I am, I personally won't eat any animal I've had as a pet either. That means iguanas, rats, and cats are out... This, of course, requires the leap of faith that when I get Chinese takeout, that is indeed pork, beef, or chicken I'm being served.

Journalism and sexism in the games industry
It's pretty comical how the opponents of GG have continually stuck to a strategy that's obviously been completely ineffective. Regardless of how many times it's been proven that mud slinging, character assassinations, and unsubstantiated accusations have done absolutely nothing to deter the GamerGate movement, they continue to persist with those same tactics. It's the media equivalent of trying to drive a 12 foot tall tractor trailer under an 11 foot tall overpass, smashing into it, backing up, then trying again and again and again and again.

Necco Wafers are disgusting, but those "orange and black candies" are actually fairly good.

IDK, he does give the sense of someone a bit impish that likes to poke people for fun while having complete deniability. Which I totally can relate and respect. Anyways, GG making funny OC I quite laughed at this one 8 of these people have talent. Edit: Also: "When GamerGate stepped on the scene, SJWs were petrified Jet back to the lab like they were being chased by homicide Our truth does you right, Tical, and it will never steer you wrong And all you hypocrite journalists in the industry Your careers won't be lasting long."

What you having for dinner tonight?
I went shopping yesterday and Stop & Shop always has rotisserie chicken on sale on Fridays. Better yet, it was about as fresh as possibly can be as I literally watched the guy take it off the spit and package it moments before I grabbed it. Needless to say, I devoured much of that chicken yesterday. Today, I picked the rest of the bird clean, fried up some bacon, chopped up some cheese and veggies, and made an awesome chicken, bacon, and cheddar salad. I love me some salad.

I'm really glad I didn't pledge to this game. I mean, I hope it turns out to be great and will buy it in the future if it does, but I can't shake the feeling that Chris Roberts is biting off way more than he can chew here. The track record of games that have tried to be jacks of all trades is not very good. There are exceptions, of course, but more often than not when you tackle multiple game types at once you wind up with some, or all, of them being not very good. Here's hoping I'm wrong.

Costume Quest, and annual Halloween tradition. I'm about halfway through it. After that, Costume Quest 2, then onward to Bayonetta 2. I also scooped up Painkiller: Hell & Damnation plus all the DLC, since it was dirt cheap (I paid $5 for everything). I don't have time to play it right now, but once in a while I feel like playing some mindless old skool shooter goodness, and Painkiller fits that bill nicely.

Rose sprained his ankle in the last game. It's not (thought to be at this time) a serious injury and he'll likely only miss a couple games, but this had to have made Bulls fans, who were likely already walking on pins and needles, all the more nervous. It's been a horrible year for superstar injuries so far, and the season just started.

Maybe, that was the game where the developer claimed that Bethesda were deliberately trying to bankrupt them by arbitrarily failing milestones and not paying them so as to buy them out cheaply, so there were definitely two sides to that story. Wait just a minute. Are you suggesting a big publisher threw their weight around in an attempt to forcibly acquire a development studio? How dare you, sir? How dare you besmirch the good name of big publishers?

The world looks pretty, but they definitely have some work left to do on that running animation. That animation looks pretty bad, he looks like he's having a seizure while running.

If that person is going to get that worked up and distraught over this then it's probably for the best they step away from this whole thing and take a deep breath. Here's hoping he or she chills out and things come into perspective, maybe then he or she can cheer up.

I've considered this a dead project for years now. When a project goes through the setbacks, wholesale changes, and rumors of cancellation that Prey 2 went through, the chances of it ever seeing the light of day are slim. It's probably for the best, since the few projects with these kinds of troubled histories that have eventually released do not have a good track record of quality.

Karma paying Clayton Bennett and Sam Presti back for being cheapskates and wasting several years of having 2 of the top 10 players in the league in their primes. They got rid of Harden because they didn't want to pay the luxury tax (ironically, shortly after that the cap changed so they could have afforded to pay him and still not go into the tax) and they repeatedly either made no moves or settled for cheap bottom of the barrel guys rather than paying a higher tier guy and going into the tax to make a push for the title. Their reward is likely going to be zero titles and getting to watch both KD and Russ leave for greener pastures when their contracts are up, which is very soon (why would either of those guys want to stay and play for cheapskates?).
