He wants to hold the first ever knee brand alcoholics unanonymous meeting in agermany. Where we can all get together and then not remember the night and feel awful the next day. Sounds DS like a good plan no? sipping jim beam tonight fellers. Playing Mass Effect 2. Relaxing after my busy ass day of fixing my truck up and starting insulatinf my crawlspace. Awful times.

I feel you on that. I’m not even middle of nowhere and 4-5 inches of snow can basically shut down all but about 5 roads plus the freeway. They just don’t plow or salt hardly at all. The irony is that Detroit is the largest salt mine in the world and we can’t salt our fucking roads.

Some K.Flay for y’all. Her voice took some time to grow on me but I quite enjoy the sound of it all.

So uhhh. Is tiger manufacturer going to be your own invented alcohol? Are you going full Charlie Sheen on us Drahkon?! Are you maning Tiger Blood??!

Yeah, why can’t we get these “improvements/additions” without paying full price. Surely a bit of princely yachting isn’t worth another full retail to Day One buyers.

Now combine it with a solid VR.

Godzilla can be summed up thusly. I want my hour and a half back to go rewatch Knights of Sidonia.

That comic is exactly accurate.

I don’t know exactly, but I do know post WWI we had unprecedented growth through the 20s. I’m sure there was still poverty but most people were able to grasp at the American Dream. Post WWII was similar but different. We kept our economy rolling along with the war machine (Korea Vietnam) and it was true then that basically anyone with some drive could leave home at 18, find a job and buy a home and support a family on single income. That I think is the ideal people want back. But low/stagnant wages and rising cost of everything plus inflation, our dollar literally doesn’t go as far as it used to.

So did Michael Jackson. even the surgery is method acting.

Whelp. As the resident American. Vikings are minnesota or wasssisnawme from how i mettour mothwr. (Marshal!) packers are Green Bag. Bay* Wisconsin. Eego fuck them go lions. Who suck. What in deteoit doesnt suck

Who are you? Kiddding. You’re in China with Mrs Iun right

On the other hand i cant deny sligth pride in that the sport has found fans in europe. So cheers to that. Do you go full merican and get into NCAA college footbal though? Guys at work tdo and its the silliest damn thing oto me. Arguing about these kids (teens and early 20s!) playing and earning a degree breaking this bodies and the school makes millions. Ahhh well, go blue. Football anecdote. Sophomore and Junior year (10th and 11th) I rode my horse out on the field at the start of home highschool games. Semj mascot moral thing. I started it the year after a close friend passed away kn a car accident. I wore his jersey when i rode ar the fames. Fames games. He died the day after mothers days ANYWHO that’s a thing I did. Never stated for the fames but oh well. The very last game I rode at my fucking saddle looosened up and slide 90 degrees and I feel landinf hard on my bip. Good times falling off a horse in front of most theschool haha.

NFL is boring. Big giys in pads hugginand tossing their balls around. Im American and Id rather watch Soccer/Football than American football. Fuck. I’d rathe watch curling. You evety watch curling? Its intense. Watch it this olpimics.

That’s uhhh. Thats one helluva quote there. Might even fall under libel.

NFL as in like the US football? That’s just sad. Watch a good sport instead. Like Hockey. Red Wings managed a freakin shutout today. 4-0.

Well frankly he’s both racist and xenophobic. And he sadly represents a large subset of the US population. It’s a “we got ours, fuck the rest” mindset, it’s also a mindset that the US is the greatest country in the world. Freedom this freedom that, unless you disagree with my idea of freedom, then I just hope you die. Locked in a political civil war where we can’t even have a reasonable discussion. Frankly I kind of hate this place and it’s jingoist bullshit. I work with, hell am related to the types of idiots that voted trump and think he’s the bees knees making America great again. Their ideal of whats great is skewed though, they have this image of Cold War America. Economically viable, anyone can get a job at a real wage and buy two cars and a house. I don’t think we can ever reach that ideal again. Not with the way the world works. I feel like I’m ranting in a non-conducive manner. So I’ll stop there.

Arguably, calling a country a shithole is in fact criticizing the country. He didn’t go into detail, so of course he isn’t going to cite human rights or economies. The racist part is him assuming that people from those countries are inherently bad. And that is him being a bigoted racist. Look on a citywide scale instead. Most cities definitely have bad neighborhoods. Plenty of people describe the areas as being shitty, and they aren’t really wrong. It’s not about the race of the residents. It’s about the area. Detroit is a shithole, I still know great people that live there. Flint is a shithole. Very poor and can’t even get clean water, still has good people living there.

I agree with MindFreak, I don’t see it as entirely a race thing. Now I wholly believe that trump is racist. He was probably being racist to a great extent, but I’d like to believe it’s an infrastructure thing more than a race thing. People from countries that can’t get their act together. (Never mind the fact that many countries are purposely destabilized by other “nonshithole” countries).

This console really is such a righteous piece of shit. I don’t know how anyone uses it as a primary or only console. The simple act of turning it on and logging in and accessing my games list took multiple tries and console resets culminating in about 15 minutes before doing a cold boot from unplugging it. Then lo and behold Mass Effect 2 was moved from the Queue to the Games list (makes sense I downloaded it a week ago) but when I start it...well it was only 53% finished. The asinine system just decided it couldn’t be bothered with actually fucking finishing the download it claimed to finish. 4 years in and this OS still feels like an unfinished Beta. I hate that most my posts in here are so negative but where the fuck are the positives?! And I have tried to like the system, I’ve spent enough damn money on it multiple times now. Oh I’ve got one positive. It downloads quickly unlike anything Sony. Up 20% (of a 13.23GB game) in the time it took to type this. Edit: my issues at startup were that I wasn’t logged in. Multiple tries and restarts needed just to sign in and even then it would only partially sign in. And no my internet is not to blame as everything else was fine at the time. I finally unplugged it (twice, first time the controller forgot how to turn on the system) and it worked as advertised another edit. Another positive. It should have occurred to me earlier but Microsofts efforts into backwards compatibility have been fucking stellar. From none to some with restrictions to single disc, to multi disc games to OG Xbox games they have shamed everyone else. Yeah it’s not perfect or all inclusive of the available games. But it’s a fuck load better than the Switches nothing, and PS4s rebuy it on PS4 if it has a rerelease and paltry PS2/1 offerings (still a repurchase.) new year new me I’m being positive with my negativity. Also there is no new me.

......... I just put my whiskey in the freezer. And have it on ice. Can’t get it cold enough.

Weall be slippin! No posts isince the 17th (which hey, 4 year anniversary of my truck catchjng on fire on the freeway :() im sli aipp sipping on some detroit Rye Whiskey. 98.8 proof. Its good. Strong. Gonna switch to scotch though soon. Muuuuch cheaper. Ninjaedit bevauss I can

Current rumors are saying that there are plans to bring across 2 and 3 to the Switch as well. I’m probably going to end up getting this on PS4 and Switch. I played but never got terribly far into the game on PC. I do recall killing the asylum demon with the starting equipment, it’s funny how skill level grows in these games.

Not at all. 1 and 2 are the closest to each other but they still have adjusted mechanics. Playstyle is very similar however. Biggest difference is the removal of ragdoll physics sadly. Bloodborne plays completely differently. Defensive strategies are just not meant to be viable like they used to be. It’s a game about striking first fast and hard. Some fundamental mechanics do remain from the Souls games though of course. Dark Souls 3 is an excellent blending of the two playstyles. Sword and board is still great, but everything is a bit more sped up. Dodging and being fast is viable now. Plus us all the storylines are obviously all different and pretty good actually.

As fantastic as Bloodborne is, you really should play Dark Souls 1. It plays differently from Bloodborne or DS3, but the gameplay is pretty damn perfect, and the story is quite good as well. There is a reason that people are still playing the first game, more so than the second game or Bloodborne.
