Driving a car is not compulsory though.

Did they accept blame, or are they saying you rear-ended them?

Most forms in the US let you decline to answer questions on gender and race.

Pretty interesting race to upset an incumbent in Virginia. Bathroom bills are dumb.

The 2nd Thor movie did a great job of salvaging Loki. I've been having a blast with all of these MCU movies. They've created a very fun universe. I'll probably go see the new Thor this holiday weekend.

I would put Split next to Unbreakable. Although it is a much darker film.

You did WHAT...?!
The other day I made it about 3 miles in 30 minutes, so I just turned around and called in sick. I made a decent day of it though.

I'd say it was as good as the first one. It was an easy to watch action flick. Colby Smulders wasn't very good.

What are you playing now
Playing Arkham City a bit. I loved Asylum but never got hooked into the sequels. Maybe this time I will stick with it. Also trying to resist the urge to buy the new AssCreed. I will try to wait for a sale.

We used to force people into treatment quite regularly though. The deinstitutionalization of psych wards is a pretty complex case. I want to see way more progress made in mental health care in this country and would love if that were the dominant conversation over gun control or Islamic extremism. Personally I think we've become too focused on drugs over treatment and education.

I agree with this.

The chicken flying was a mode? Yep. Did you watch the video? They explained it and put in a disclaimer.

That wasn't a bug, it was a developer version and Conan kept unlocking the developer god mode.

The thinking behind it is pretty nefarious though. It's meant to encourage players to become jealous of each other's gear and be motivated to spend more. It's all backed by hard data and research. Sure, it's pretty blatant, but every commercial product is trying to get you to spend money.

He also wants to come here, which is a big deal, as not many sluggers want to play in SF.

Honestly though MMO's have been doing this stuff for ages. I've seen a few quests that revolve around taking part in some weird social interaction over the years.

The Weird, Random and Interesting Things That Fit Nowhere Else Thread
The horse DUI is a somewhat common issue in rural areas. It's dangerous enough riding a horse near cars when sober, we had a guy down the street get killed last year on his horse after coming home from a party. You can get cited on a bicycle as well. edit: Horses weigh a ton. Literally. A Toyota Yaris is the same weight as a heavy horse.

They need to do something else with the Overwatch world. I like all the characters and the setting but have little interest in the genre.

Remember when people got upset about the IRS targeting conservatives under Obama? The new tax code literally named Stephen Curry, who had a little twitter spat with the President earlier in the summer. Good to see them taking the high road.

My landlord said he was going to write up a new lease. That was about 6 months ago.

Yeah, go visit Bruce in SA. He totally won't murder you, honest truth.

What's on the idiot box?
Finally pushed the The Defenders. I mean, I enjoyed parts of it, but it really dragged. Iron Fist was just terrible, and the story was just not that engaging to me. I hope Punisher is back on track.
