Yeah people from Seattle have much more in common culturally with the people from Vancouver than they do with Texas.

I was largely making a joke, well aware that geographically a trip from Kansas to NC is equivalent of myself to like Greece. Culturually though I think we'd agree one of those is a long bigger distance
. And a "break" for me would be like going to Blackpool or London (in own country). If I can go somewhere and it's still Walls ice cream I've not gone far enough.

A vacation is anytime you're getting paid time off work. But a vacation can also be visiting an area that's not at home. Then there's the staycation and that's for people too poor to travel. Holiday's are official days off work from the government like Christmas, Boxing Day, Good Friday, and of course, Victoria Day. So for instance say you were going to Boise Idaho for Christmas, as one does, then that'd be a vacation in your holidays. Then there's summer vacations, which is when goddamn lazy fucking youths get the whole summer off of school, so in that case, say you go to Edmonton for Canada Day on July 1st, you'd be on a vacation, during a holiday, while on summer vacation. A break is something you take at work, usually 15 minutes or an hour for lunch. Glad I could clear this up for everyone.

Yeah, this game should be like American Horror Story, with seasons that are largely unrelated except for perhaps tiny little nods that you won't even notice unless you played the other ones.

That is the one game that makes me actually want a VR headset.
-
That is a terrible idea...

Not actually a game itself, but it's for games so I'm counting it: a 512GB SSD. I'm sick of waiting on load screens, and stutters when games stream in new assets (especially irritating in Forza, which is what pushed me over the edge). It was on sale on Newegg for Memorial Day.

Didn't they say Retro is working on a new IP? Or did I make that up?

Game of Thrones (Current episode spoilers)

Hopefully that will be a happy side effect. -
If I ever have a band I'm naming it Inbumblious.
-
That's actually out of date, intelligence sharing has already resumed. But yeah, our government's a mess right now.

Our local NPR station always does string quartet covers of pop songs for their transition music. I love picking out stuff like Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.

Only one light. All but the smallest, cheapest ones have them. Or so I thought. Looking at vacuums on Amazon it looks like it's about 50/50. Weird, because every vacuum I've ever bought or used has had one and it's not like I've ever specifically looked for that feature. *Edit - But anyway, this has gotten blown way out of proportion. The point of my original tweet was not that vacuums need lights, it was that if they are going to have lights those lights should be bright enough to actually illuminate things, which none of them ever are.

I would like the other joycons better if they were black to match the Switch itself, but that grey just is not appealing to me.
-
I also like the colored one better.
-
It's completely standard! I have literally never used a push-vacuum that didn't have one!
-
An 8k monitor seems pointless for anything other than like feature film editing work, and mostly pointless for that too since most movies aren't even filmed at that high of resolution. *Edit - I guess you could watch 4 4k sources at once without losing any quality?
-
The book thing just made me cringe, but @deanbmmv's joke is one of those things I laugh at and then feel bad for laughing at it.

@FLD On 360, for the achievement for riding Ruin for a certain distance, I literally just went to that desert arena, rubberbanded the controller so he'd run in a circle, and went out to get food.

This guy: https://twitter.com/MikeCooperJr I have no idea how I got it in my head that he was you though. He's at least a lawyer, so I'm not 100% crazy... I do think that he had that same JFK avatar as you when I first started following him, but that obviously wouldn't have been enough to make me think he's you.

I've been playing Forza Horizon 3 and really enjoying it. It's like the best parts of Dirt combined with Burnout Paradise (except good). Also, driving a supercar through a city at 250mph in this game is the first time in my life that 60fps has seemed insufficient.
-
lmao! Then I've been following some random guy for months thinking it was you...
-
Only on bnet? wut? *Edit - Apparently there was another whole page I didn't see... Regarding the reset, WoW has gone like 300 years and never had one, so it's possible.
-
And to talk about how great the new carriers are at the Coast Guard graduation. Cuz you know, Coast Guard, Navy, same thing.

I forget that that's going to be on Netflix outside the US. Stupid CBS, sabotaging their shows by only putting it on their own streaming service here.

Yeah, as @Mr. GOH! said on Twitter, this is why you don't blame other people. Rosenstein doesn't want to be the guy who interfered with the Russia investigation, so once he got blamed it only made sense for him to use his power to appoint special counsel so it's clear he's trying to be above-board.
