Still playing Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and Mario Kart 8. Man, it's tough going getting 3 stars on 150cc, I'm still stuck only having gotten 3 stars on one cup so far. I'm also contemplating installing Wasteland 2, which has been sitting, undownloaded, in my Steam account for quite some time, just to check out what character creation looks like. I still have no intention of playing the game proper until it's finished.

Knowing how much displeasure Robben gives people just made me a bigger fan of him. Well done, you bald beautiful bastard!

3-0 Holland. The Brazilian nightmare continues. The only thing left that could make this worse for them would be Argentina winning tomorrow. #DarkestTimeline

This is easily the worst officiated game I've seen in this tourney. This ref needs to lay off the crack.

Holland scores again! Will we see another monumental collapse from the host nation? Blind was able to see that one quite well.

Jesus F Christ, Thiago Silva really doesn't want to play in this game either, does he? He should not be on the pitch right now. How the **** was that not a red?

Because the Earth is only 6000 years old and Jesus rode a dinosaur?

Alice: Madness Returns is an excellent game?

So, CNN decided to interview Captain Jack Sparrow: http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/bestoftv/2014/07/11/exp-erin-intv-vine-alix-catherine-tichelman-boyfriend-death.cnn.html To the best of my knowledge, this was not a very poorly timed April Fools joke and is a real thing that happened and completely serious. Also, the whole Google exec dying by heroin overdose is a weird story in itself.

If it makes you feel any better/worse, literally moments after the Hand of God goal, Diego Maradona scored the Goal of the Century. The real goal of the century was Michael Thomas for Arsenal vs Liverpool in 1989. Not some fancy schmancy showboating by Diego 'smellybum' Maradona. It went into the back of the net, didn't it? Dude smoked half the England National Team all by himself. Don't hate him because he's beautiful. The whole reason it's dubbed "The Goal of the Century" is because it happened against the England National Team. Anything causing England to fail in the World Cup is instantly 75% better and 300% more comical (to everyone outside of England).

Ahhhhh, the jealousy! I was planning on buying a Wii U but for some reason they only sell NTSC Wii U consoles here. I can't go NTSC now, I've been PAL my whole life! It would have been to everyone's benefit if Big N hadn't region locked the machine. WTF Nintendo, WTF?

Sick John Myung bass. One of the things about Dream Theater is that they have a bassist who's quite content to just be in the background doing his thing without nuch recognition, laying down phat basslines for the band. That said, when the bassline is this phat, it's hard to ignore:

Mario Kart 8. Mario Kart 8. Mario Kart 8. I'm so addicted. I need help. Help me, please!

Yeah, Bosh is not worth the max, he never was, even at his peak. He's a star, not a superstar, player who's at the very tail end of his prime. Now, in Miami, they have Bosh, presumably a broken down Wade, maybe the corpse of Ray Allen, and a bunch of nothing. I'd be surprised if that team makes the playoffs, even in the East, next year, unless Darth Riley has some kind of Jedi Sith Mind Trick up his ass to get a big time player to come over and take less money.

I gotta say, LeBron's move back to Cleveland is a pretty shrewd one. If he wins even one championship with the Cavs every single piece of bad blood stemming from The Decision will be forgotten by everyone in Cleveland and Akron and the surrounding areas, much of it has been forgotten already just with him choosing to go back. A title win in Cleveland makes him a hero and a legend in his hometown area forever and ever and ever. He will be treated like a God there for the rest of his life. Plus, it's a better basketball situation, frankly. Cleveland, with LeBron, has a pretty doggone good team to put out on the court. If they can get K-Love, they become a juggernaut. They may have to give up Wiggins to do it, but if it was up to me and I couldn't avoid giving up Wiggins to get Love, I'd still do it in a heartbeat. Wiggins may become a top 10 player in the league someday. Love is a top 10 player in the league right now and in the prime of his career.

That's a big oopsie for Houston as they already traded away Jeremy Lin.

This leaves D-Wade out in the cold, doesn't it? He opted out and I highly doubt anyone will offer him a max contract or anywhere near that.

From memory: DA:O Morrigan Alistair Leliana Wynne Shale Dog Gay assassin Dwarf guy Qunari minus horns Maybe some other people DA2 Varric Female sword & board warrior Female blood mage elf Cleavage pirate Some other people

If Cleveland gets K-Love that will be one helluva team.

Is it weird that I'm most offended you would've killed the dog? (Also, Qara gets to live?!) My bad, the Mabari War Hound gets to live. I'm not into animal cruelty. As for Qara, she was awesome. I thoroughly enjoyed her abrasive personality. Her trading barbs with Khelgar and Neeshka was some of my favorite banter in the game. I can't be the only one who liked Qara, can I?

Paper. You, sir, have just won the internet. Thank you for that, my day has been made.

I'm eagerly awaiting the awkward Dan Gilbert/LeBron handshake, better yet, hug. Please God, let it be an awkward hug!

Nah, Neeshka, Khelgar, Sand, and Qara would have survived. I liked those four. In Dragon Age: Origins I would have murdered everyone except Wynne and Shale. Wynne was cool, and Shale... I'm not sure how I would even go about murdering Shale. Dude is made of rock. In DA2 everyone but Varric would get murdered.
