  1. I fucking hate these things. The idea of reducing a collection of books to tect files on an ugly ass PDA is just awful. Where's a aesthetic pleasure? the sense of ownership? hell, where's the desire to not look at a goddamn screen for a while? Eurrgh.
  2. fuck me that's shit
  3. bullshit
  4. Peach on, sister.
  5. They're not what he asked about! At all!
  6. New Avengers is pretty good if you're going back a couple of years
  7. I actually like Pixie. Great character design in a proper X-Men style
  8. the purchases thread was rubbish. UIG was decent but it'd be more fun if someone posted a 'this week's theme' series. The movie thread can die in a fire.
  9. The issue after that with the original X-Men hunting Creed in New York is easily one of my favorite ever. It's so, so good.
  10. X-Men is a weird one- you could read Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-men and never step outside of it for a full and comprehensive story, but the same couldn't be said for Uncanny X-Men, which has just come to the end of a 5 year story spanning three or four books in full. pretty heavy.
  11. WAAAAANT!!
  12. you don't have to be super l33t to go online. I only ever played mates 1v1 for shits on sc1 and it was awwwwwesome. Just because SC goes esports doesn't mean everyone has to be that good to enjoy it.
  13. I call this show touchcloth for a reason.
  14. ....what a retard.
  15. The Walking Dead kicks off in October. Check out the thread for info on that. It's AMC so if you check out Mad Men, expect the same (astronomical) levels of quality.
  16. What the fuck?
  17. You could say the same for Invincible Iron Man though, especially the first arc. Marvel tends to work in 'volumes' in that every now and again there will be a major departure or change in the story and in the next volume everything will be self contained. You only need to know a fiarly recent amount of history, relatively speaking.
  18. I think you can get in ear ones that 'aim' sound directly in to your ears (rather than just being speakers that fit in your ears) but I'm not sure what they're called. I always used cans.
  19. The problem isn't always going to be volume- Shit headphones will leak sound whatever you do. Buy a decent pair with noise reduction and you're golden.
  20. well, yeah, that too.
  21. The full interview is good, fyi. And online. Yeah personally it doesn't bother me at all- in fact I'd rather see more of it (as long as it has attached consequences) but I see his point about young readers. It's a complicated issue, I suppose- though there's far worse problems in comics like the routinely and industry wide degrading portrayal of women, for one.
  22. So Jayseven informs me that we've been playing 'Catan wrong for years. Oops.
  23. True- but when I was fifteen I was about 6 inches short of walking in front of a bus going full speed. Slightest difference then and I'd be dead. Dwelling on what might have happened and what didn't happen is useless, especially when you did everything you possibly could in the circumstances.
  24. It's the best thing currently being produced by human enterprise.
  25. Woah that's crazy, man. Sounds like you did the right thing though.
