NHL 2015-2016 (The Panthers Stanley Cup Season)
Are you sure that was here? I know you are a man of the internets, and it can be tough to keep track of all your beefs.

NHL 2015-2016 (The Panthers Stanley Cup Season)
i dont even know who you're referencing? can't be hossa I didn't recognize it either. I'm not really a believer in the playoff choker theory, although that's probably because I'm a Sharks fan and tired of that label.

Yes, I also care about the political views of a 20-something actress.

Fallout 4 is coming soon.. is there a new OB Fallout Scheduled?
I'm assuming that is part of the mystery. I fully expect that my kid may be an adult when I find him. Just hope it doesn't turn into an Oedipus scenario.

I wish all the scrap crap would just go straight to my settlement storage. Inventory management isn't all that fun in games with a decent UI, let alone one that has a weird relationship with my keyboard and mouse. I'm pretty sure I'll give up grabbing every fan and spark plug fairly quickly.

What you did today
I've always thought it was odd when people do the baby talk thing. I've never done that with my kids.

What are you playing now.
wat I'm assuming he means the the laser musket, which you need to crank as you shoot. It's fun, but hardly overpowered. Pretty creative actually.

Fallout 4 is coming soon.. is there a new OB Fallout Scheduled?
I'm in agreement. After my first five hours or so this is what I've got Pros - Looks and feels great. - Exploration is overwhelming, so much to see. - Story and writing are great so far. I am pleasantly surprised. - Crafting is insane, and building your own little town is crazy addicting. Cons - Character development is no longer special. - Interface is not mouse friendly. - Buggy I think I'd be more upset if I hadn't just played Wasteland 2. You see, that game let me take a group of characters and develop them all into unique specialists with personalities. So I scratched that itch. Fallout 4 seems to be encouraging us all to be jack of all trades, and the background story is too locked in. You are the good guy. There isn't much flexibility there. Both in the narrative and the leveling system, you are playing more of Bethesda's character than something unique.

That is insane, what a terribly written article. Ethics in journalism indeed. Why don't you read some real articles on the issue?

Yeah, I am struggling to adjust to the new leveling system. It also isn't super mouse friendly. That being said, it is a beautiful world to explore, and so far the writing is better than I expect.

My wife is having her ACL repaired today, so I'll basically be single dad-ing it for a bit with my wife taking on the role of a 3rd kid.

So I guess Fallout is a pretty big deal.

I can't get it to run in full screen. Why do people give Obsidian such a hard time for buggy releases?

So I pre-loaded, and figured I could check it out an hour before bedtime, but now it is spending 30 minutes unpacking or something weird. Bummer.

Didn't you hear the DJ cursing at you? I must have missed that.

My wife snapped this on the way home tonight. The Little Mermaid is angry.

I got pretty mad at Wasteland 2 yesterday. I was in Damonta, and decided to leave and come back. I didn't realize that was a death sentence to everyone I had saved. My previous save was pretty far back, so I ended up redoing a few hours worth of stuff.

Journalism and Bias in the Gaming Industry
Intolerant student activism is hardly a new phenomenon. Although the silliness of it being over halloween costumes is pretty comical. We live in a low stakes world, apparently. Maybe someone can direct these people towards police brutality or something actually important?

Journalism and Bias in the Gaming Industry
Why? Does the "free speech space" not extend to faculty? Yep. There is a world of difference between a paid professional educator and a student. Sure, they could tell a student to bleep off, but that doesn't mean they get to keep their jobs. Students have to do considerably more to not be allowed to pay money to go to school.

My kids are good at leaving the freezer door just slightly afar, so it defrosts everything. I actually check it every night before I go to bed as part of my routine.

I don't know Volo, I didn't even see anyone from Variety at our latest Social Justice Clubhouse meeting. Ooops, I mean, what social justice clubhouse? I definitely didn't snack on any gluten free quinoa granola or drink kombucha served in mason jars.

Expecting an entertainment rag to be well researched and intelligent is foolish. Misinterpreting it as some sort of SJW agenda is tin foil hat territory.

I had the same initial reaction to a number of changes. But I did get comfortable with it after a couple hours. I think it is like turning to a radio station in the middle of a song, and how it just sounds like noise for a bit before you start to recognize the rhythm. We were headed in expecting one thing and it was jarring to find something different.
