Looks like right now the GOP is trying to use the fact that the health exchange website is overloaded as a sign that the entire bill was a bad idea. Clearly none of them tried to play GTA Online the day it came out. Even Jon Stewart fell into that nonsense, and he's usually smarter than that.

It might have been Reiner. I can't remember and I don't feel like going back to see which one of them it was.

Are parachutes one time use items online? 18000 dollars would be so not worth it if you can't keep it forever.

Man I just had the craziest session. A special car spawned that Simeon was looking for, so I drove down to its location and grabbed it. What I failed to realize was that this car was also marked on every other player's map, and as soon as I got in they all started to converge on me. I didn't notice this until someone suddenly rammed me from behind and started shooting at me. The collision spun me around, thankfully giving me an opening to shoot him through his windshield. Now, before I could sell the car I had to respray it at a mod shop, and the closest one was inside an alley. I drive into the alley, and the same guy I just killed shows up again in his car, and the little fucker actually put himself in passive mode (I'm assuming that's what the circle with a line through it means) before he started trying to shoot at me again. However, passive mode only works on foot, so I shot him through the windshield a second time. From there I go inside the mod shop and spray the car again, making it ready for Simeon. While I'm doing that, two more cars are coming my way, hoping to block off both alleyway exits to trap me inside. I quickly drive up one of the ramps and hit one of the cars in a head-on collision. Because we're at an angle, the crash sends me flying up into the air, over his car, and onto the street behind him. I immediately take off with one car in hot pursuit, forcing me to weave in and out of back roads and drive through oncoming traffic to shake him. He eventually crashes into another car, giving me enough time to make my escape and drive all the way to the top of the map in order to drop off the car. I fucking EARNED that 13,000 dollars. I was actually experiencing adrenaline for a bit there.

The shutdown, while certainly not helping anyone, is not all that bad in the long term. A default, however, would be completely unprecedented in the entire history of the US. Nobody can really say for sure what will happen if that comes to pass, which is why I think the House is so unflinching about the possibility. "It can't be as bad as they say" is what they're telling themselves, and they seem 100% committed to this delusion. I think anyone with half a brain could tell you that the United States not being able to pay its bills for the first time ever would be disastrous on a global scale, maybe even worse than what happened in 2008. I can't say what will happen, but for fuck's sake we can't let ourselves find out. Everyone gets that except for the suicide caucus, and nothing is ever going to change their minds about that. Mark my words, the only way we get out of this is by trickery or a loophole of some sort. The tea party has never been reasonable before and they're not going to start now.

Isn't it the 17th when they hit the ceiling? And I bet they'll drag this out up to that point, maybe even past it if Obama doesn't do something sneaky to get around the need for congressional approval. The tea party would actually prefer a default over letting Obama have his way. A few of their members have been quoted as such.

You don't have to find an ATM to bank your cash. Just pull up your phone and visit the bank on the internet and deposit all your money. Buying things comes right out of your bank account anyway, so there is no reason you should ever be carrying cash on you if you aren't being chased by cops.

I managed to get in last night for about...45 minutes. Hoping it won't be much longer...

Fixing your plumbing is one of the most frustrating, infuriating bullshit home improvement projects imaginable.

I'm not even gonna bother trying to get on the PS3 version until they sort this shit out.

I have no doubt in my mind that the Tea Party house members would gladly allow a crash of the entire global economy if it meant they could blame it on Obama. They have become so out of touch with reality that they are actually a danger to the whole country.

I have to say I loved the song choice at the end. Very poignant.
