  1. Hmm, I wonder what the implications for Uber and Lyft are with young kids? It sounds like Denver might be the best option, plus I can always rent a car to make it easier to get around.
  2. My RV is getting up there in years, right now it is in the shop and I'll be dropping about $3k on new tires, transmission service, and fixing the front wheel bearings that are going bad. But we've had it for 7 years and it's a comfortable little home for us for about 6 weeks a year.
  3. With the success of GoT, I can see WoT turning out pretty well.
  4. I'm starting to plan my summer RV trip, and I'm trying to figure out where to stay in Colorado. Denver has a good RV park within the city limits that has easy access to bus routes, meaning we can get around easily without renting a car. Colorado Springs has some as well, but they are not well rated. Fort Collins and Boulder don't have any parks very close by, so I'd need a car to get around and it'd be a bit of a drive.
  5. Hitler's prosperity was also a bit of a mirage. The long term viability of the German economy under Nazi rule is very questionable.
  6. Well there is obviously a very thin line between satire and simply being an a-hole. At its best, satire does more than just gratify the ego. I'm sure we all cross the line more often than we'd like to admit. But that video is a pretty clear example of just being an a-hole.
  7. I watched about 30 seconds of that clip. You have someone being ridiculous, so someone else made a ridiculous video about it. Fascinating. Circle jerk of stupidity.
  8. There are a few stories going around about that. It might of been intentional. It isn't ugly yet, as the closest family member has already filed a petition to put the whole matter in the hands of a neutral corporate trustee that handled Prince's business affairs. If she was going for drama, she would have petitioned to make herself executor.
  9. Pilots are really flying B-52's?
  10. In my experience, the more powerful a union is, the less effective it is at representing the individual worker. It's a very difficult balance.
  11. But really, that's as much on you as it is on the other person. You've got to be able to let the little stuff go. Sometimes even the big stuff. Yeah, it's not just that I have to put up with her, it's that she has to put up with ME, and I can't manage that half the time. So, ideal, as in "ideal gas" (i.e. doesn't exist in reality)? The ideal woman is the one that helps you get through those times when you can't manage yourself. And you do the same for her. It's like a team sport. Having kids is like getting called up to the big leagues. Just like in sports, some teams are better than others. My wife and I are the San Antonio Spurs.
  12. I expect Xcom 2 to get some new content that makes it worth additional playthroughs. They hit it out of the park with the Xcom 1 expansions.

  14. I actually think Portland was a tougher match up for GSW than the Clippers even before the injuries. Lilliard seems to thrive when he plays the Warriors. Griffin can also be shut down pretty effectively by Bogut.
  15. Then I'm out. Quitter.
  16. It's what's under the bikini that is important!
  17. I think I can talk about this now, since it turned out to be nothing, but I was a bit concerned about one of my testicles. It had some weird stuff going on. I went in for a physical, I was due for one anyways, and the doctor tells me it is just sperm build up from my vasectomy. Everything else was in tip top shape. Always a bit weird to go through the 'turn head and cough' routine but I feel better knowing I don't have ball cancer.
  18. I don't know if I'd call the thread serious. I just thought it was pretty telling that Kirottu began it with humor and wit and a bunch of people went straight to the physical.
  19. I don't want to jinx it, but I doubt there is any scenario in which Houston can win 3 straight. They just can't keep up with the depth. The Houston starters basically have to play the whole game to keep ahead. They get worn out, but the Warriors can keep rolling out bench players. Game 3 was basically a best case scenario for Houston, and they still almost blew it. That being said, second round will be tougher for sure.
  20. On my first date with my wife, two things stuck with me. She laughed at all my corny jokes and finished her entire meal. Those turned out to be much more important than you would think. She is my ideal partner.
  21. It think it's one helluva a stretch to say he was digging deep. Yeah.
  22. Some of you wear shallowness like a badge of honor. Looks are important, but they change with time. If you want to find an actual ideal partner you need to go a bit deeper than that. Which is exactly what Kirottu was doing when he started the thread. To each their own, I suppose, but odds are you will be on your own a lot.
  23. Kirottu has started this in good taste, but I'm pretty sure it will spin off the rails pretty fast. You can tell the single guys by the ones that keep posting about weight.
  24. I'm pretty worried, but realistically the Warriors can win the next round without him if they play like they did in that second half. It will be a much tougher series, of course, with a lot less room for error. But facing the Spurs without Curry is a scenario I do not like to imagine.
