I think your face is super unfunny.

How is that word even in someone's vocabulary?

Since it was brought up, I have some pretty strong opinions on the whole climate we have today regarding weight. While I am going to be quick to defend anyone who is belittled or attacked over their bodies, I'm pretty concerned about the health implications of normalizing obesity. Living healthy and being active SHOULD be priorities in our society. Video games typically represent an ideal or exaggerated version of a person. You can jump higher, fight better, and run longer than the common man or woman. So why would obesity be common?

SW:TOR lets you play a fairly beefy character, male or female.

If Larian has managed to make interesting companions, that will be a first for them. I love Larian games, but that has never been a priority for them. Obsidian, on the other hand, has a pretty long list.

I agree with you that we should never look at any media outlet as unbiased. They all have their spin. There are tremendous flaws in the whole 24 hour news cycle that we are all subject to today. I just think the only thing worse than a society of biased journalists is a society without journalists at all. What do you replace it with?

Steam used to run like garbage and had a completely botched offline mode. It seems to be much better now. edit: I originally used borked instead of botched, but after research, it did not quite mean what I thought it did. You learn something new every day!

Did it though? It seems pretty unlikely.

Define media?

I don't really see what is so crazy about it, seems like a pretty decent discussion.

So how about that Miss Texas?

I could see the art asset argument being a thing. You only have so many resources to devote. But is it true that Morrowind had breastless Argonians? Seems weird that they would change course on it. I'd love to hear from Bethesda officially on the change.

El Pollo Loco is pretty solid. I'm more about the sandwich shops though. Mr. Pickles is my new favorite.

I only play Wordz Up on my phone.

I expect the male avatars to look good as well, so not really a double standard. They tend to be using it as a funny buzzword more than actual indignation. But I think that glib use of the word at a young age makes it harder for them to have a strong understanding of what racism is. Then you end up with a bunch of kids that think it is funny to be racist and a bunch of kids that think everything is racist. It's ok, I'm taking care of it one class at a time.

I may need to get some bean bags.

Helped along in part by Amazon's pricing tactics in their cool war against major published houses. Why would I spend $20 for either a hardback from B&N or a Kindle edition of a new release when I can buy a new hardback for $12-$16 from Amazon? Crazy thing is since I got my kindle I've read way more books and spent quite a bit less money. Ease of access plus much better deals.

You know it's good satire, when people misunderstand what it's criticizing and only prove their point. I was about to explain it to them, but I like your tactic better.

Not a big surprise. I spent a ton of money with B&N over the years, but now that I have a kindle, I just don't have much reason to go in there. I'm more likely to shop at my small local bookstore for anything not on the kindle, too, because it is easier.

My son has been playing a bit. He was not happy with one of the helmet looks, so I went in to hide the helmet for him. Turns out you need to pay for such a luxury. Lame. He did hit level 21, which is pretty neat for a 7 year old.

Kind of a sketchy way that Equifax set up the security check website. It almost feels like a phishing scam. Still, I trust Malcador so I went ahead and put in my information. It sounds like we get some free security features out of it, at least.

It took me years to learn how to read Gromnir. It is possibly my greatest achievement. The kids are close, but to be fair my wife did most of the hard work there.

Sure but that is arguably a stationary gun that uses the resources of the planet itself to power the weapon. I mean, I think it is silly and the range is dumb, but it could be a much cheaper project than a moving moon.

It's the first I've seen in C&C, at least in a long time. This isn't Bioware.

The Death Star still seems to be the more expensive project though. Wasn't it the size of a small moon?
