Mind you I didn't mind the stupid stuff in FO2 (anymore than in any of the other FOs including Kid Fridge)

Knowing of ghouls and knowing the dietary habits of ghouls in their natural habitat is something entirely different (and I'm not sure knowing to mow down a Feral Ghoul has any barring on non-Ferals). Overthinking things is fun, though!

^Is there no way to demonstrate competency in some/all of the courses without taking the course work through some form of "Prior Learning Assessment"?

Let's hope that was his first and last one then! You can tell him a dude on the interwebz wishes him best of luck. Indeed, best of luck and hope for no more; hopefully also not any hidden / unseen as yet problems arising from it.

Or he really wasn't in there for 200 years. If it was up to me, the ghoul kid and family would have been working with the raiders to prey on the gullible. Some sucker would free the kid and not knowing nothin' about ghouls would buy the story about the kid being in the fridge and reuniting with the family and all, the kid would lead the sucker to the raiders and make sure they got killed and everyone would split the profit. Only the ghoul family decided to flip the script because they were tired of being under the heel of the raiders. So they got the kid to lead the toughest looking suckers home instead of directly to the raiders - always plausible deniability about how the sucker didn't follow the exact script until someone comes along who can actually take out the raiders. Once that's done the ghoul family is free and the sucker is none the wiser. Or it could have been that way had someone thought to flesh out the quest a bit.

Sure, it was empty when we opened it, but who knows what it looked like when the kid went in! In case anyone isn't sure:

No.... gods no! Please tell me this was intended as humour, that I have failed to read the sarcasm intended. The wasn't enough? With something like that, you can never ever have enough smilies to show you're joking! My heart attack has stopped now, thank you! Sorry for the trauma!

Even with my problems with FO4, I thought it worth the money I paid for it. So what? I did and I feel cheated. Next time I am going to look for some reviews before buying. So I was responding to Chilloutman's implication that having problems with a game means that person didn't like the game and/or felt cheated out of the money they paid to Bethesda by providing a counter example to that sweeping generalization in myself. EDIT: Incorrect negative, bad sentence structure

Played Renowned Explorers over the weekend. Also some Dungeon Siege III.

I haven't watched Heroes since the end of the first season. Didn't see any reason to return on the reboot but I hoped it'd be good for the people who had liked the show.

Its not splitting hairs, its using the correct terminology to refer to the correct thing correctly. I Am Legend isn't a remake of Omega Man anymore than Omega Man was a remake of The Last Man on Earth. All three are different adaptions of the novel (with differing levels of fidelity to the source). Nosferatu (1922) and Dracula (1931) are both adaptions of the Bram Stoker novel (the 1931 movie via the Hamilton Deane stage play), but Dracula (1931) isn't a remake of Nosferatu. However the Werner Herzog 1979 Nosferatu with Klaus Kinski is a remake of the 1922 Nosferatu but the 1979 Dracula with Frank Langella is a new adaption of the stage play that 1931 Dracula was an adaption of so it is neither a remake of either the 1922 and 1979 Nosferatu films or of the 1931 Dracula. Based on your argument - that anything that adapts the same material is a remake - The Dark Knight is a remake of Batman (1989) which is a remake of Batman (1966) which is a remake of Batman (1943) despite having little in common other than the fact they're adapting the same character from other media. not to put too fine a point on it, but what in the hell are you doing? is a category that the razzies folks is utilizing. am suspecting that the razzie folks would laugh themselves apoplectic if the "winners" o' one o' their awards argued with any seriousness that the reason their movie/performance did not deserve mention were 'cause o' mislabeling. and yeah, is a category that will indeed have fuzzy gray areas 'cause it is meant to limit an artform. is a category no doubt imagined into existence by folks whose closest brush with scientific method were listening to a bunch o' nerds discuss the plausibility o' lightsabers during their time at usc film school. and most pointless and ill-considered is that you is arguing with vol in an attempt to get him to see the validity o' the categorization in question. find self arguing serious with vol over what is largely nonsense has happened to us once or twice and is always embarrassing. *shrug* HA! Good Fun! Eh...I even mentioned in my first post that strict adherence to the categories really wasn't the Razzie's intention. Vol then disagreed with me, so I disagreed back with some logic. Nothing really to see here.

And out of the haze, I teleport to a tall building to stop the Brotherhood from getting Nuclear reactor parts. Note to Self: If I was playing a video game, I'd almost think I'm nearing the end of the game. Too bad real life doesn't work like that. Later, I jet packed around. Note to Self: Because nothing says "don't tread on me" like jet packing around in the wasteland Aww, who's a nice mutated deer? Note to Self: Wash hands afterwards, look like they got a mutant strain of mange. Brotherhood of Steel patrol off in the distance Note to Self: Kinda creepy if you didn't know what it was. Went for a swim. Explosions happened. Note to Self: I think these two things weren't related. Someone isn't a history buff or an art lover. Note to Self: I suspect Supermutants. Or Raiders. Probably not Feral Ghouls - not they care about art, they just don't care. I don't think I want any milk after all Note to Self: Makes you wonder how many hits of Jet was needed for "Yeah I'll take these severed heads and put them in our refrigerator" to sound like a good idea... And another one down, and another one down, another Turret bites the Dust Note to Self: Are you ready? Hey are you ready for this? Are you hanging on the edge of your seat? Ballistic weave - now putting fashion into your wasteland protection. Note to Self: Still no real lady's hats. This wasteland sucks. Ballistic weave clothing in action Note to Self: Soooo much more comfortable than that vault suit. Raider Survivalist? What a Misnomer Note to self: More like "Raider Explodiest" am I right? Apparently he was a Van Gough fan by his starry night exit Note to Self: I wonder if any Van Gough's survived the war? Curie models a new top-of the line ballistic weave dress; for when you want to fight and for when you want to...not fight. Note to Self: Should look for me one of these...

This was some time ago, I seem to recall being on one strong pain medication the first day, a second lighter pain medication the second that I weaned myself off of. However I had foot surgery around the same time and I may be remembering that. Dunno.

I didn't really have any issues with it. I was on pain medication for a couple of days, didn't develop dry socket which would be the real pain problem and *bam* right as rain.

Had all of my wisdom teeth out at the same time. Woke up and the dental surgeon was like: "Hey how are you doing?" Me: "Grbrlmfff okay i gueff..." Dental Surgeon: "Great! Would you mind going back to sleep? We're not quite finished yet."

No it isn't; a remake is literally when you make something again. An adaption is not a remake. Gus Van Sant's PSYCHO was a remake of the original PSYCHO down to using the original script. But if he had a new script written that re-adapted Bloch's novel it'd be a new adaption of the existing novel not a remake of the previous film.

Lemmy had turned 70 about 4 days before he died (just as Bowie had turned 69 just two days before he did). I really liked Alan Rickman; he was one of those actors who you always knew was going to be good in a movie - even if the movie itself maybe wasn't as good as you'd hoped it'd be. RIP Mr. Rickman.

The guards just think you're really happy to see them.

It's more of a Japanese take on western action-RPG.Interesting oddity but sadly quite flawed. I'll agree it is flawed, but despite that I still really enjoyed it immensely.

Fantastic Four isn't really a remake or a sequel either but a new adaption of an existing property. That said I'm not sure the Razzie categories are supposed to have strict adherence.
