  1. Yeah, as you get older, decent shoes that aren't worn out become pretty important. I had to stop wearing Van's a number of years ago.
  2. I have been saying for years that the NRA needs to step up when these shootings happen and advocate for responsible and safe gun ownership. They haven't done that, and after reading the response they issued about the marches, I've got to say they are absolutely delusional. That reads like a crazy person's response.
  3. Maybe don't expect realism in a Tomb Raider movie.
  4. Baseball is even crazier. A great team is still going to lose 60 plus games. A great hitter still strikes out 70% of the time. If you can't put it behind you fast you will go nuts.
  5. I don't know, it is a long season. You can't freak out every time you lose, sometimes things just don't go your way. Blowout losses have always been easier for me to handle as a player than the close ones. The close ones haunt you over a play or two. In a blowout you learn pretty early that the game is decided, and so you move on mentally. Playoffs would arguably be different because you are really limited in the amount of games. It is healthy to be able to put a bad game behind you though.
  6. That's why I love this place Echo chambers are boring I agree. Wait. :/
  7. Yeah, but snow.
  8. Welcome back Boo. The politics hasn't been the same without you.
  9. I've played a handful of FF games and I found the list to be very accurate.
  10. All of the houses in my area are $800k. I don't think I am going to be able to buy a home.
  11. I just right click on the image and it has an option, but I'm using Chrome.
  12. Yeah it looks like they threw in a few extras, but honestly it isn't that far off from most roadside stops I've seen across the country. I just don't get it as a joke. Like, you have hundreds of miles of open country and then you get one cluster of food and gas stops out in the middle of nowhere because it is a massive country. Is there a joke in there somewhere? Looking at a google image search, I don't think they threw in anything other than the cornucopia and dogs.
  13. I don't get it, what is the blurry thing in the Exxon parking lot?
  14. Secret World Legends wants to be your friend. I played it quite a bit when it first came out. Might be worth a revisit.
  15. I'm really craving a new MMO. I looked over the list and realized the last decent release was Elder Scrolls Online in 2014. Kind of crazy that there has been 4 years without a solid new game in the genre.
  16. The fix isn't so much the 97% vote margin, the fix is a system where one person can dominate the political scene again and again. Of course having two parties that just trade off power isn't much better, but there are some pretty dramatic swings between the executive cabinet every 4-8 years in the US.
  17. I finished 4th in my age group. So close to the podium! I was 20th overall and came in about a minute under my time goal so it was a good race.
  18. I've got about an hour before my first race, a sprint duathlon. It's like 40 degrees outside, so hopefully I'll warm up fast on the run. I have no idea what I am doing in the transition area. I am just trying to mimic everyone else.
  19. I've got two more weeks, I'm psyched! I'm hoping the sun comes out by then. I booked at the Hard Rock and if it isn't decent pool weather, I'll be a bit bummed. It looks like it will be mid-70's.
  20. Heh, little easier to click the link with the explanation. We all need to challenge ourselves.
  21. From ghoulies and ghosties / And long-leggedy beasties / And things that go bump in the night, / Good Lord, deliver us!
  22. Maytag Repairman RPG is my best guess.
  23. I recommend Tough Mudder or Spartan Race.
  24. I read Four Hours in My Lai in college, I highly recommend it. edit: Also gives you some insight into why Colin Powell never ran for office.
  25. Retired politician says something in India, news at 11.
