  1. I dislike the DH rule. Makes the pitcher less of a man. But, maybe the Cubs will have better success in the AL. And maybe they can get some more rallys together and put up some more runs with a DH. Cubs got a long way to go. I'd go see them if I were around that area. I'm heading to Oakland to check the A's out before they /probably/ move to San Jose. My buddy grew up in Oakland. His dad died when he was little. So he has a lot of memories about that stadium with his dad, and he gets the 20 game package every year to go with his brother and sister. I go with him, as well. Him working in athletic marketing, he also has freinds who work in that stadium. It's a real heartbreaker for him that he might never go to that stadium again to see his beloved team. Cool that you got the The Freak's jersey. Those aren't cheap, and they look sharp.
  2. I don't know how to feel about that. Which reminds me, I need to start a Star Wars thread.
  3. Baseball is my love. I watch the G-men as much as I can. I listen to KNBR 680 out of the bay area (Giant's flagship station). I loved watching the Dodgers get shutout and swept for the entire series. That was unbelievable! The bats on my team just needs to pickup. I miss posting with Michael Dukakis, as I love a good fan of baseball, even though he's a Mets fan.
  4. Madagascar 3. Just okay. The penguins and their antics make the movie watchable. But, the main character is kind of someone you don't really care about. I thought the antagonist could have been way more developed. Basically, the kids in the theatre didn't really laugh at the jokes in the movie as much as they laughed at the preview for Despicable Me 2, which I am very much looking forward to next year.
  5. No, but the person below me does now. The person below me went to see Magic Mike and it changed his life forever!
  6. I went to bed at 8 oclock last night, 6 hours earlier than normal. Fuck, do I feel great!

      I wish I could do this. I could never tear myself away from the computer until it's 11:30 PM.

       

      And then I spend about 30 mins surfing the internet from my phone.

      Like someone slipped a Prozac in my coffee. This morning I did dishes, laundry, and made the kids breakfast. Shit is unreal!

      I need to kick myself back into a before midnight sleep time... man I am tired.

  7. Word! Arok Lazarus won't sign up here, and he's the one person on Kotaku who I talk about KoTOR and KoTOR2 all day with, over and over again. I have tried, but he won't do it. So, for our gaming news, we are going to Giantbomb. I just need to get over there and give up Kotaku permanently.
  8. What's up, earle? Good to see you again after we just met a few days ago.
  9. Blobbeh, I think you will find most people around here enjoy having all of the new people showing up, for no real reason except a love of gaming. Welcome!
  10. When they killed it off, I was irritated. I got this tip from an editor there, maybe Owen.
  11. When you click on a page, the site will try to default you to "m.kotaku.com/blahblahblah". Change the "m" to "us.kotak...". Works like a charm every time.
  12. Yeah, it is definitely not more user friendly to iPhones. I tried to expand a thread and everything went batshit insane.
  13. I think the history of all accounts went away, or is archived. I can only see one post I did on Gawker a couple of weeks ago. My legacy is gone!
  14. I'm loving Hell's Kitchen! That show cracks me up. No one would hire these people to work in their restaurant. And no one would want to work for a dick like that. In addition to that, you would think that if you auditioned for this show, you might want to practice making 4 things: Beef wellington, scallops, striped sea bass, and rizzotto. These things are always on the menu. No surprises here.
  15. Glad to see your familiar face, too. Welcome. You may pick up your tin foil hat at the coat window.
  16. Olive Garden: Your breadsticks and salad make me happy, but your wait time to be seated BLOWS

      As far as I know, there's only one Olive Garden in western Canada, it's in Langley BC. Pretty much anytime you want to go there, it's so busy you're waiting outside, halfway across the parking lot. It's crazy. But so worth it.

      It's sad that people think that.

      Indeed. Anyone who isn't a vegan locavore is, quite frankly, scum.

  17. Here is the bad part, which we all hate to look at with this ruling by the courts: Congress now has the power to mandate what you purchase/how your money is spent beyond regular taxation. This is the core problem of this ruling. This isn't taxation anymore, or enacting laws for the benefit of the public. This is very unique to this country, as this is an entrance to the dictating of your spend. Now, depending how "coverage" is defined, a good capitalist can find a way to make bank on this.
  18. This is causing a massive exodus of commenters looking for a place to call home, like here. Doc Suess gave this place a nice review, so you may notice a few new citizens, which is awesome!
  19. All things Yoshi, eh? Welcome, then!
  20. Everyone on FB posts memes over 9000 times! It's the modern chain mail.
  21. I like Star Trek, but the Turkish shitty version is fantastic! Their special defects are the best. www.youtube.com/watch?v=APBjyBKq86k How can you not laugh your ass off at this steaming pile?
  22. Played the Wii this weekend: SMB, Carnival Games, Disney Princesses Enchanted Journey (of course with the kids). To my amazement, I enjoyed them all!

      I second this notion. GOTY material?

      Sorry, that year has gone bye bye.

       

      However, a good laugh can always be had with a review. Hmmm....

      Don't lie. You didn't play with kids at all.

  23. Hahaha! Stupid chicken Yankees. http://m.espn.go.com/mlb/story?storyId=8084562

      How do you not know who Frank Francisco was? He was in the fucking AL last year.

      I truly enjoy anything that calls the Yankees chickens, Chewie. The Mets missed it today, but got them damn Yanks yesterday.

  24. We just got to Lake Tahoe 4 hours ago. So far, we went and skipped rocks on the beach, met the neighbors, played with Lego's, took a stroll, ate, did a puzzle, and signed up for Netflix. This. Is. Awesome!
