I like those Steam sales, although they aren't as crazy as they used to be.

I'm just playing hard to get, Labadal. ;-)

There does seem to be a bit of an overload of depressing art in the thread.

I'm still expecting some kind of explanation about why these new/modern games are vomit worthy for SonicMage. I mean is it just the genre in general? edit: Ha, he posted a better explanation right before I asked. Although I still don't get the Xcom 2 complaint. I used to load up the originals every year, and I haven't had to since Firaxis rebooted the franchise.

Fallout 3 was fine for me, but Fallout 4 made me sad. Although I think it was the fact that Fallout 3 came out after a long drought, and led to FO:NV, where Fallout 4 ditched all the character development options of the universe and paled in comparison to NV.

I'm not sure why Xcom 2 and Final Fantasy XV are on your list, those were two of my favorites recently. Final Fantasy XV is pretty quirky but pretty much nails the whole vibe of the previous versions, and Xcom 2 is the best turn base tactical game to come out since Jagged Alliance 2. Most of these new shooters do nothing for me.

I'm assuming Hurlshot the Force Psyker met an untimely end.

We took a much needed week off, but we are back on track with Episode 23: A Mermaid's Tale.

This is frighteningly realistic.

That's not entirely true, you don't need to go with a jury. Also about 95% of cases don't even go to trial, so the odds are good this will be settled.

I've decided to make a baseball field in my backyard. Still has a lot of work left to go, but I dug out 30 ft. basepaths.

I made a 30 ft by 30 ft baseball field in my backyard. Still has a lot of work left to do on it, but I've dug out the base paths.

I'd be pretty psyched to be a Force Psyker. I'd also make a lot of bad puns about mind control.

I was curious enough about this screenshot to stalk you on Steam and figure out what it was.

I don't think this is going to improve under the new administration...

Finally finished Iron Fist. I enjoyed a number of parts of it. Yeah, I will echo that Danny is a pretty annoying twit, but there was some good stuff. Namely the fight with the Drunken Master and the spider lady stood out to me as worth the watch. Also I liked Ward's storyline. He was probably the best part of the show, really. Rosario Dawson also had some pretty good moments. She was a good foil for the idiocy of the two lead characters. It's still not on the level of Jessica Jones, and it lacked the kind of performance we got out of Vincent D'Onofrio, but it was still better than the teenage soap operas with DC characters they are running on the CW.

All those different armor styles take up a lot of space!

Charlize Theron is 5'10'' and probably a solid 160 toned pounds. I'm not sure what you are talking about.

Do you have an idea of how much hate-speech and such those charities commit? I'm completely clueless on that. I haven't followed it too closely because I don't eat fast food anyways, but I think they prop up some Christian Athletic Organization that is discriminatory. edit: It just seems dumb for any CEO to really take political stances. You are the face of the company, if it doesn't benefit the company, you shouldn't be presenting it. At least with celebrities I get it, most of them are self absorbed and clueless, but I expect more from a CEO.

The CEO of Chik-Fil-A was pretty vocal during the gay marriage controversies a few years back, and their foundation supports some pretty vocal anti-LGBT charities. I'm a big fan of voting with your wallet on stuff like this. The safe place stuff is ridiculous though. It's a just a business, if people don't eat there, then it goes away. End of story.

that's a reason you drive an rv instead o' flying? getting bumped happens .62 for every 10,000 passengers. Gromnir don't drive an rv 'cause roller skating deer, hopped up on ecstasy and listening to air supply tracks from their ipods, tends to throw themselves at our vehicle. *shrug* Geez Grommie, it's not like I said it was my top reason. No need to attack my lifestyle choices. There is a laundry list of reasons why I prefer to take an RV on a trip over a plane. The only two advantages to plane has is speed and travelling over water. Everything else is worse. So as long as I'm not is a rush to get somewhere and I'm happy visiting the two American continents, I'm in good shape.

At first I was like "Why would you resist?" but then I read that he was a doctor and had patients to get to, which seems like a pretty dang legitimate reason to not be the one to lose your seat. Crazy. Just another reason I take my RV everywhere. Honestly if I was on the plane, instead of filming, I'd probably be the one to give up my seat. I can't imagine sitting on that plane for hours after watching that. That is some bad karma to begin a trip on a magical flying machine.

Have this week off work, so am catching up on my backlog and doing nothing else I have this week off, so I'm clearing away the jungle that is my backyard.

I'd say the Oprah prediction is worthy of its own thread. I like it, we will all get new cars or something. Although then we will get hit with a hefty tax bill.
