  1. The site is already feeling different. The open threads and TAY posts were not up today (and open thread has been disappearing from the landscape for the last month). A lot more of the quick, small note posts are prevalent. I like this change more than any I have seen over the last year.
  2. Sorry LSU! I don't like 'Bama, but I do like to see them lose. :)

  3. Plantagenet period (1154–1485) We call this "The Dark Ages" in our schools, roughly.
  4. That backlog is going to destroy me. I still have the first Dead Rising on my list.
  5. Finally! Someone who is as far behind on their backlog as I am. Welcome, Point-3!
  6. The shouts are a blast with killing shit. I love those skeleton warriors. One shout and I kill a few. The floor is littered with bones. The hard part is looting a big pile of mess. Which body part is which? Didn't I just loot this guy already?
  7. See, I haven't had a bear purposely attack me unless I do what is done to antagonize the giants: Get close. If I stay away, they don't bother me. Of course, any time I hear the roar, I must kill to take revenge for those deaths on the early levels I suffered.
  8. I spend a lot of money on ore and ingots. Constantly making new things. And I am spending money on buying quest items, as there are so many quests. I need to complete a bunch. And in towns where I have helped out and completed quests, they are friendly to my Orc. And I am buying the expensive items, usually enchanted, so I can disenchant them. It is time consuming, but I like to work with my hands.
  9. Watching Mortal Kombat. So cheesy, yet oddly enjoyable.

  10. I maxed out my home upgrades. Now, I just have excess cash. I don't want to buy another home anywhere, because I hate all of the other locations. I only want to buy a home in a nice place, like Whiterun. I should probably just spend the money on leather and ore and smith my way to 100, enchant all those items, then sell them. Onto another subject: The thought of of a giant's toe is pretty yucky. Who wants to drink a potion made from toe jam? That's some funky drink, right there.
  11. Wait. There is an entrance to the Thieves Guild? Guess I'm heading back to Riften.
  12. Well, guys. Finally did it. I got married last night, after killing my first giant. I had been avoiding them in efforts to stay alive. But, I took a quest and was actually good enough to kill one. Then, I killed another. Fantastic! But, I decided to marry Ysolda. She's started a business, like she wanted to, but is giving me about 100 gold pieces when I ask her how the business is doing. I didn't have the option to marry Lydia, but I got a pretty decent second choice!
  13. Wife brought me to a Chinese restaurant, my favorite one. Order me a Coke when I was in the bathroom. Got me a plate of pork fried rice and a whole order of potstickers. I'm not going to let that one meal set me back on my resolutions, but damn it's a good reason to quit. YUM!

      what was the name of the chinese restaurant. Living in the LBC, I have few Chinese restaurants that are really good, and the few that I did like slowly went out of business :(. I need a good option

      I feel you. This place is half an hour away from our home. I'm actually the opposite way, living in central CA. 4 hours to SF. About 4 to the LBC. We typically stay in Torrance/Rendondo Beach area, as my wife has family around there. We have some friends in the LBC, but they tend to meet us in Torrance for lunch. Next week is another trip to Legoland and a party in Torrance. Should be a fun time!

      Plus, if I am down south, I get my fried rice from King's Hawaiin. The spam musubi is killer there, as well.

  14. I lost Lydia last night after a dragon attacked and some orcs or dwarves got on me (something about a bounty). I couldn't find her anywhere! I backtracked to where I had been with her last. No sign. So, I got the map and did the fast-travel to Whiterun. She was there! I thought I may have lost her permanently. I love that hulking woman!
  15. Went 2 days without a Coke. I had one with lunch. Tonight, back to the gym. Should be a good test of will!

      I didn't read the "a" in the first sentence. I was confused by how open I thought you were about your habit.

      You can get over your caffeine addiction! Do it! Don't be a slave to major corporations!

      It's the headaches that get to me. Such pounding headaches.

       

      Going with gingerale to ween the soda/caffiene, if I really can't take stand the constant craving.

  16. Are there other food groups outside these? /American Just the healthy ones, like hot dogs, chili, burgers, fried chicken, and malt liquor.
  17. My resolutions: Lose weight, bang wife more, clean out garage and organize. Simple ones that are easy to accomplish. Just need to avoid the Rockstars, Coke, Snickers bars, french fries, etc.,.
  18. I found a cave with nothing but spiders. Going into the depths now. Probably a really big bastard down there!
  19. A new season of The Bachelor! Best dating sim on TV since Rock of Love/Flavor of Love.

      Dating sim?

       

      Oh, I wish it were like the Sims, that's for sure...

       

      ...bwahaha...

      I loved Paradise Island, or something like that, where they brought in like 8 couples, and 16 super models, 8 men and 8 women, split up the couples and paired them with slutty supermodels. Overall the women were attractive, and it was good trash TV

      Trash TV is the place for me. But, I still have standards. I have never liked Friends.

  20. Going to friend's house for the east coast feed of the new year. Then back home to watch the west coast new year with the mrs. If only I had a Hawaiin satellite feed to do it again.

  21. Sonic & Sega Allstars Racing is free on iOS today. I picked it up, but haven't test drove, yet.
  22. I won a free copy and still have yet to load the game. >.< Oddly, I read that as "loathe the game".
  23. DA 2 is getting some cheap love this week. At Amazon: Dragon Age II PC Download $5.99 Plus $5 promotional credit good towards any the 2011 bestselling Video Game (credit valid in January 2012 only) The promotion almost drops the price to $0.99. It's almost like extreme couponing!
  24. With Strangelove's frustration on his save files, Dragon Age 2 on sale for the 360 and PS3 at Best Buy for $10. Shipping is free, as well.
