Was anyone else annoyed but he second season of Black Butler? I think the whole series ended perfectly after the first.

Sunless Sea is 66% off starting today. It's a great game in the Fallen London universe; unique and quite enjoyable to play.

I am personally finding this is true about high up people. My boss has me write his email correspondence for him because I took Business Communication in college. So I learned how to write briefs, memos, emails, and other crap like that.

On to my RL Anger for the day:
Being a single parent is a tough challenging thing. Getting custody of your child from a bad parent should also be a cause for joy. But when doing so your outlook should not be "Oh yay, my money situation will improve now that I can get child support, welfare, foodstamps, and <insert other single parent help programs here>." You conceited selfish asshat.

Yeah I never played GW1 . I got 2 because that's where my WoW guild moved when we left after Pandaria. I've never seen anything for pvp on GW2 just all of the seriously involved PVE things. I mean chasing dragons and world bosses can keep me busy for half a day - and then there's objective captures in the Western zones and the list goes on there's so much PVE to do.

ETA:
Now that I'm looking for it yeah I do see PVP and WVW stuff, I guess I just never gave it enough mind to let it really sink in there might be a thriving PVP community on GW2.

Because I'm a surly cynical curmudgeon with a Clint Eastwood glare who isn't surprised by anything anymore.

If anyone plays Banished and has not checked out the mod scene for it. Megamod 0.06 is just fantastic.

I have two favorite Tales from The Crypt episodes:

The Ventriloquist's Dummy, had Bobcat Goldthwait it - it involved him wanting to learn and become as great as his hero a ventriloquist only to find out that the puppet was more than a puppet.

And the second was Dig That Cat...He's Real Gone, starring Joe Potagliano, where his character was given some cat glands and had nine lives - and he was a circus showman who was using those lives to make money in grander and more grandiose stunts. The entire episode is narrated by him from inside a coffin as he recounts his various deaths.

Flamers are a greatly undervalued and underused weapon of destruction in BT.

For those of you running the Spray and Pray, the weapon's effects are enhanced by the Demolition Expert perk.

@SG said in Cheap or Free Games!:

Mount & Blade is free today at gog.com

It is awesomely fun, and has some of the best voice acting in the industry.

It is not talked about much but M&B has hung on with gamers and kicking off the occasional sales deluges much like Skyrim. Bannerlords is on the horizon. I am excited for the next Mount and Blade installment.

My Fallout Shelter game feels like a birthing dystopia, where people are selected not for their desire to be with one another but for their SPECIAL genetics.

Will Dwellers 1 and 37 please report to living chamber 3...

And its the best way to raise happiness.

Starport Gemini 2 is free on steam right now

My favorite quote was from Arthur, "You can't fight crime with a macaroni duck!"

I have the Tick on DVD. Great tv show (and cartoon before that!). The sad thing is, when I saw Ted 2, no one understood why I was laughing my ass off at seeing Patrick dressed as The Tick and Michael Dorn dressed as a poor Klingon. So sad.

@Ganymede
It was sometimes. The biggest problem I had with Evolve is everyone wanted to be the monster. So if they weren't they would bail on games and then keep rerolling until they were. I think with the updated free to play they put in a punishment system but in the early days it did not have that.

You had a great run Abe. Great run.

LARP things. Good god.

The first location we ever played at was ran by a guy named Scott at a house that his parents were trying to sell and had been on the market for six months - it was a small two floor ranch with attached barns for horses out in the middle of BFE Ohio between Springfield and Mechanicsburg. The troupe consisted of three small group of people from this area, separate towns really, coming together to play. So the membership was about 20 people.

My first time going out to the ranch house to LARP with these people, there were these three girls in the Springfield group that were dressed all goth and vampire-like. And they thought vampires were HOT. The evening ended when Scott discovered the quasi-orgy going on in his old bedroom because IC LARPwise these girls felt that Dominate was a valid excuse to get their tops off and their mouths on any variety of shaft that was presented before it. Because it was RP. And that was what they'd do.

Weeks later, the girls and half the people that came with them from Springfield never returned. We had a new guy who thought index cards for weapon props sucked - and brought his own real sword and an actual empty Glock. His reasoning when people freaked out having a gun pointed at them was to go "It's not loaded! See!" and then rapidly rack the slide after disengaging it to try to prove his point. We never saw him again.

The last gem was years later. New troup based solely out of London in a gaming store that had opened in town. Scott was the Storyteller Prime for us again. The game fell apart when he started printing out the emails of the players from one clan, and share them with other people in other clans for the sole purpose of derailing every play that the first group made, and every influence move they initiated. When the cheating was discovered all six members of the clan quit the game and it pretty much fell apart after that since no one trusted Scott anymore.

The lightest of my horror stories was a case of ruined clothes. We had a guy who would pre-cut ketchup packets and if he did damage to you in combat he'd throw them at you hard enough to spatter ketchup on you for every damage in health that he did. The Storyteller was okay with this.

@Roz

And then hotrod ruins it...

@Miss-Demeanor

I would watch this just to watch all of them get killed...

@Arkandel

I had a few guests over tonight and each time one showed up the dog would sit at the bottom of the stairs to his apartment and bark at the door. The dog would do this for about 10 minutes. Then each time one went outside onto the patio to smoke, the dog would come back. This guy had the nerve to ask me to not have people over after 8pm because he works 2am to 10am and he's trying to sleep at that time.

All told, it's a NMP situation.
