  1. After all these long years, I have became an adult and yet I still care that this is canon... wow.
  2. Interstellar Holy fuck. While some of the science are odd but it is such a fun movie. There are really no dull moments in my opinion. Some people's actions you had to question but I think I could give them a pass with it considering what the hell they were doing and looking at.
  3. Django Unchained Kind of an odd movie but fun which is pretty much all Quentin Tarantino's movies.

    Hrmm... it really comes down to the issue of bloodline but there are so many Chens, Chins and other surnames running around that it doesn't really matter. I could use less people with my name running around...
  5. http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/11/04/grand-theft-auto-v-a-new-perspective?utm_campaign=ign+main+twitter&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social So the current gen version will have 1st person mode which doesn't seem tacked on. Plus more songs and cars. I'm not sure if the last gen will get it? Anyways, more reason for me to get it now I suppose. Can I hope for a decent PC port because...
  6. After a brief absence, there's a pulse of planes inbound for Europe from across the pond. Rest in peace you European bastards. Edit: It is also neat to see the approach path for SFO. Its a pretty sight on the ground and it's neat to see it from a map. All the planes lines up neatly!

    I took a nap and lo and behold, he woke me up by nipping on my toe. Seriously, where the hell was he? I looked in all the closets he could have been in. At least he's not a velociraptor.

    Neat... and not perfect with the upload.

    Well, I was playing Shadow of Mordor when I last noticed him in my room. I'm still very confused. At least he is chipped...

    So, how stealthy are cats? My roommates' cat is now living with us but on my watch, he disappeared and honestly, I'm kind of freaked out. How can a cat disappear from a closed off house? The only way he could have gotten out was that he was smart enough to open a sliding screen door and close it on his way out... This is on top of him somehow phasing into the garage last night.
  11. I refuse to watch World Wardecent. ause of its terrible adaptation. Tonight... The Cabin in the Woods was decent.
  12. Ugh... BoA just closed my credit card. Okay, fuck you too.

  13. There Will Be Blood So this film is great. It has a great, mostly speechless, opening sequence where actions were spoke volumes. It makes you pay attention to details and to think about the stuff that are going on. I'm still trying to work through that though. Fun fact: Union Oil built an oil tank farm in San Luis Obispo during the movie's time period that would have held the oil that Daniel would have drilled, if he was real. The tank farm though, in real life, blew up in one of the worst USA/California man-made disasters (early ones anyways). On Google Maps, you can still see the outline of the tank farm along Tank Farm Rd. The reach of the disaster is still around today with the ground nearby unfit for use besides grazing land at best. Further out there are commercial lots, an airport and a whole lot of empty land.
  14. Alts are the reason why I don't look down upon low level people. That and if you know what you are doing, you can murder folks with just the basic weapons.
  15. Godzilla. I concur with the general sediment that it is lacking in Godzilla. I could care less about the people. Godzilla parts were awesome though, especially the finisher.
  16. Take my money.
  17. Indeed. They are usually best after a frosty winter. They can handle snow and ice easily and in doing so, they come out really sweet. Almost like candy. So if you ever grow carrots, don't pull all of them in the fall!
  18. My chicken lentil soup doesn't taste the same with grocery store carrots and celery, primarily the carrots. This is the first time that I confirmed it after making it for years with farmer's market ones. Still good but it is missing the sweetness that I'm used to.
  19. No, Halo must be a yearly release or it'll be a failure.

    I want to be a Chinese peasant or something...
  21. Revisiting the Yosemite area is quite fun with a background in geology. Granitic rocks are oddly quite dull though...

      Geology was the only science I enjoyed in college(one of only two science classes I took.) Made a C+ in the main class and an A+ in Lab. Loved breaking open those rocks and labeling them...but when it comes to chemical/element composition. Fuck. Me.

       

      Haven't been to Yosemite, but I loved going to the rock mountains(Garden of the Gods) after taking the Geology class.

      Revan, if you sent me rocks, be sure to record sampling location, orientation and general outcrop description. Makes for better context to any samples, be they for research or pleasure.

       

      Vecha, indeed. Know what potentially went down for the rocks makes visiting places a lot cooler. People may roll their eyes but it isn't unlike an engineer mentally stripping say a bridge, computer or building.

      Oh, indeed. I learned a lot of how to collect samples by watching America Unearthed, no matter how bad the show is.

  22. I freeze my ass in the Sierras to come home to this. A worthy sacrifice. Time to face Rape Tank and Bitch all over again. Then again, I have Marina, blitzkrieg Scouts and anti-armor Assault... I'll be fine. With that all said, my price is $30 max. I'll be buying it for sure though once i get some sort of sale since this is one of my favorite games.
  23. I can't say that I like last minute write ups of things related to my thesis... actually, I'm pissed off at myself.

  24. I recently got into watching Rome but knowing that it is based off history kind of brings it down a notch. I don't know why since it isn't that different from say Game of Thrones. If I have to guess, I would guess that it is pretty well known what happens to Caesar. Also the conflict between Mark Anthony and Octavian (Augustus Caesar) is also well known. So nothing major is left unknown. The only thing that is kept suspenseful is the lives of Titus and Lucius. Not to say that it isn't fun watching. It is always nice to see portrayals of the past... even if it may not be the most accurate of depictions. Plus it's about the fucking fall of the Roman Republic and the rise of Roman Empire. What is there not to love?
