What you've been drinking lately.
I haven't had an eighteen-year old since middle school. Not true, it was high school. Or rather after high school. But before turning 21. It was well within the statute of limitations. Or I mean consent, whatever. Totally legit. There is a lot of sweetness mixed in with the hard cider, a little much, right now, but I do have a sweet tooth anyway. I noticed though, that straight cinnamon, cimmanon?, whisky, is not superbly alcoholic, kinda like sake, only sweeter, and more like cimmanon, sinnamen, sin no man. Whatever it goes great with jalapeño crackers. I just bought a new chair to play games, a recliner with ottoman ... like cinnoman but with O's and you put your feet on it, while watching movies with eighteen-year olds. Pick it up tomorrow, super pumped.

Oh, man, remember the last time he was free ... or, at least, didn't know where Mrs. Shot was ... he was not a happy Hurl. I say leave him in chains. It's what people want.

Movies you've seen recently
Can't believe it, but if The Fifth Element were a person, she would have had a driver license for more than a year, now. An icon, this film. Could be top three, all-time.

La neuvième art (comics you've been reading)
That does look like a possibility. Interesting female lead, at least.

The Patriarchy (no girls allowed!)
Sah-ree I've never even noticed a post from you before this one, so you weren't really the target. Burn. Very manly, polite burn.

Oh man, oh ... damn BestBuy has an incoming 55" 4K 240Hz UHDTV with 802.11ac, five HDMI inputs, USB, and a two-sided QWERTY remote, September 23 for $1399. Two hundred-forty Hertz, oh man. How many days in a row can I eat ramen noodles to justify it ... the answer is whatever equals 3840 x 2160. That's a lot of noodles.

Concerns about resources the game takes to perform well
No one, who knows their PC is a beast, refuses to describe its fangs and claws. This game shouldn't be so demanding ... god I hope it is.

What you've been drinking lately.
Huh, two months later I finally get on board with this. Fireball cinnamon whiskey, Angry Orchard Cinnful hard cider, over ice in a wine glass. Probably against the law, and it's really weird to see condensation on a wine glass, but highballs are so rat pack. It tastes fine and cinna-dandy. Will try straight shots of the whiskey next. Watch out, pretzels.

What are you playing now?
The Last of Us is the one game to make me play longer than the controller's battery charge ('bout 8 hours). Although hopefully Marvel Infinity 2.0 will come close, in a couple weeks. One week after that, Shadow of Mordor looks promising.

Pictures of your games Part 5
30,000 XP, not too shabby a bounty. You talk like I had a choice ... who wrote that.

Movies you've seen recently
That punch to Cap's shield, dead center to the star by the Winter Soldier feels just like the punch to the gut when you see a glimmer of Bucky trapped inside the Soldier. So much kicking of the ass, and cool characters, strong females (Agent 13, Sharon Carter, Peggy's niece, I believe, oh yeah, she kicks-in Steve's front door like a champ), and Natasha straight up hand-to-hand against Winter Soldier. Whew!

If they made cool Wonder Woman video games with groovy collectible editions, I would totally eat it up. But Batman ... eh ...

Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition Announced
Finished the Vale of Shadows. There were thousands of undead. Okay, dozens and dozens, maybe a hundred, but it felt like millions. It wasn't until before the final battle that I had to buy potions, Frost Giant Strength, Speed, Healing, paid for +1 Full Plate, the two front-runners had their AC down to 1, and 2. So we cleansed the place, did the dialogue with Kresselack, killed the Priestess of Auril, then went back and claimed the black plate and magic weapons from the sarcophagus, a two-hander and a long sword. Now there's a temple with some verbeeg that need attention. Gotta go.

Are they even listening to our feedback?
Given enough healing potions ... I can't even buy enough healing potions. The Vale of Shadows, or whatever, at the beginning of IWD, literally has platoons of undead: skeletons, ghasts, ghouls, mummies, bone guardians ... and only one or two Cure Light Wounds potions per dungeon. My low-level four-person party--really two and a half, with a mage and thief in tow--is up to their necks in survival combat. Rest healing after clearing a dungeon is the only way, that I know of. It is really strange to see the time stamp: You Have Rested 35 Days, 16 Hours.

Really, British, not from Oz ... okay, fine, will start taking him seriously.

What you did today
I tried that, too, even succeeded incrementally over time (straight motherloving A's), got within two semesters before growing horrified by the cost, and future costs. Now I still have no diploma but all the repayments. I would not recommend the path I chose. So, but anyway, I'm sure you'll nail it down sooner than later.

Fantasy Settings: Hell and Heaven a fact - Increased motivation to be good
Forgotten Realms ... where is their analogues to 'heaven' and 'hell'. I'm no expert, but I can only think of alignment deities and different planes, not a mortal's eventual 'paradise' or 'damnation'.

I was just curious, not suicidally self-loathing.

The cheese, it is grating.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
Whatever happened to the OP, anyway, what's her name, Maria, if she was even a she, you never know. What does BSN have that we don't. Nothing. And yet everything.
