Would love to do some piano lessons but there are no trial lessons in the area. And I can't afford real lessons Just picked up my acoustic guitar again. Haven't played in years and I never really learned any chords. I was just able to play a couple of Muse songs on my electric guitar. Learned them by reading tabs. Found a cool app (JustinGuitar) that teaches you the chords and how to change between them. Think I'll use this every day to practice a little. Started with the A and D chords. Not too difficult. Also have an app that's supposed to help you train your ear. We'll see if it helps

It's become ridiculous. The worst for me is when you say "the guys" and mean a collective of people, both male and female. "But 'guy' is male, that's sexist". It's even worse in German, because we have more declensions than the English language. If you don't want to offend people you have to be really careful. It's a good think I don't care.

Never in my life will I do that again. I've done that for years. Until I was about 21. It's so tiring, always trying to avoid certain topics or words...urgh. Again, when I know it's not the right time to joke about certain things, I keep it to myself. But in any other situation...I just say what's on my mind.

Here's the deal: Yesterday I spent some time with a couple of people (friends and people I know but don't consider friends). At one point we told each other jokes and someone asked me what my favourite joke was. Well... What's the difference between a trampoline and a baby? I take my shoes off when I jump on a trampoline. Two people got really mad at me. "How can you think that's funny?", "What if your child got hurt or died, would you still find that joke funny?", "This is not funny at all.". Obviously they were offended by that joke. I'm someone who doesn't get offended. Somebody says science is wrong, religion is true? I don't care. Somebody uses the term white/black in reference to a skin colour (you can't really say "black person" to refer to a black person in Germany; you're immediately calls a Nazi)? I don't care. Somebody assumes anybody's gender? I don't care. I don't get offended by anything others get offended by and in turn I simply say what's on my mind. Not to say that I'm inconsiderate. If I know that someone has certain issues I will not make jokes about that in his presence. It just made me think...do people generally get offended more now than in the past? What about you? Do you get offended by stuff? Not sure if any of that makes sense. I'm having trouble expressing exactly what I want to say in a coherent manner. It would be much easier in German

Rick and Morty continues to be the funniest show I've ever seen on television. Can't wait to see how Season 3 unfolds.

Metroid Samus Returns for 3DS (2D Metroid game)
drahkon replied to Helmsly's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Hilarious how unlocking all this content costs the same as the game itself. -
Awesome Haven't played much besides CoD in recent weeks so I'm really looking forward to a tough Platinum. Played a little bit just now. It's awesome. The nostalgia is real It looks absolutely beautiful.

Anybody have a good guide/tutorial to learn about the rudiments of music (notes, rythm, etc.)? I'd like to see if this is something I'd be interested in but I don't where exactly to start and what can be considered a good guide. Maybe some of you know something

As mentioned in the Drunken Thread I was contemplating going to a club alone yesterday. Well, in the end my best mate and I went together. He left 3 hours later, though. I stayed for 3 more hours Didn't talk to anybody, just danced away. Think I'm ready to approach women in a club again, though. Had lots of eye contact with several ladies but I wasn't in the mood yesterday. The next time I go to a club (be it alone or with friends) I'll definitely go for it Good to know that going to a club alone is actually not that bad. Especially when you're as drunk as I was and the music is awesome
-
Started to drink just now. Playing Awesomenauts on PC and listening to Muse. And singing along. My neighbours must hate me. Might go to a club later, depending on how drunk I am. Would be the first time going to a club alone. Why would I go alone? Because apparently all of my friends don't party anymore. Fuck me, I'm almost 28 and I want to party every weekend. All of my friends are at least 5 years younger...what's happening to this world?

Indeed. If they'd improved the download speeds at certain times and offered one more free title each month I'd be happy to pay more. But as it is it's just greed. I mean, the service is good and because I spend most of my time playing online multiplayer games I'll pay, but I'll never pay full price. But that would mean my account on my console wouldn't be the primary account anymore? Would that be a problem for me?
-
DIfferent question: I own Nioh digitally. If I give my best mate access to my account on his PS4, will he be able to download it via my account and then play it with his?
-
Yup, sucks! Well, I've never paid full price for a subscription anyway. Will keep doing that. I'll keep an eye out for a discount on a 1 year subscription until 31 August.

So far it has been a little on the easy side. Haven't lost a rite, yet. But I also haven't done many, so hopefully it'll get more difficult soon. I might increase the difficulty if it doesn't. It's still very fun. They need to add online multiplayer with matchmaking

Just Cause 3? Awesome. Traded it in quite some time ago because I needed money. Good to have it back Oh and everybody who owns a Vita has to play Downwell. It's fantastic.

It's up on YouTube. Here are my favourites so far:

It's preference. I've played Splatoon on the WiiU and I hate motion controls. I was better with sticks only than with both and I never had the impression that I was at a disadvantage. Here's a shot I made in CoD. For me the prime example on why I'm better with sticks than motion controls
-
If people aimed as badly with sticks as that person, sure, using motion controls would be better
