  1. I’m not going to be able to be as involved here as normal for the foreseeable future, because my damn computer completely crashed today. Crashed to the point that all that comes up is a single line of text talking about the boot device. Literally nothing else. I’m just hoping my files can be saved. I’m posting this from my phone, which is severely limiting. So until I get this shit all taken care of, I won’t be posting nearly as much. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
  2. I recently got into Sudoku. I do a few puzzles every night. It's a good mental workout. Not to mention that I just really enjoy it. I'm still a n00b, but I'm getting it pretty well.
  3. 1) What difference does that make? Is ice something that no one in Egypt has ever heard of? 2) I'm American.
  4. Granted, for a lot of bands metal is just a means of making money. But there are other bands who put meaning behind their songs, and a message. The number one band that comes to mind for me also happens to be my favorite. Disturbed. All of their original songs have a true meaning behind it. Their covers also have meaning at least to the band members, while having their individual take. I'm going to post a couple covers with the original so you can see how they compare. I'll start with LAND OF CONFUSION Genesis (1986): Disturbed (2005): ********************************************************* THE SOUND OF SILENCE Simon & Garfunkel (1964): Disturbed (2015): Here's an original of Disturbed's songs.
  5. If you like self help books you should check out Larry Winget. His book Shut Up, Stop Whining, & Get A Life is one of his better self help books. He's referred to as "the pitbull of personal development". Another book that was mostly written as satire (I think) is The Fuck It List by Kevin Pryslak. Instead of things he is looking to do before he dies, it's all stuff that he is saying hell no to. Things like visiting every continent, skydiving, kissing the Blarney Stone, joining a commune, and all sorts of other stuff. His take is funny as hell.
  6. I took my driving test in an automatic, but I never used an automatic transmission when I was a kid. I always drove stick. I knew how to do it when I was 10. It came naturally to me, so I never had any problem.
  7. It's one of my all time favorites, but it's not my number one game. That credit goes all the way back to an NES title. But I will say that this is one of the absolute best games I have ever played in my life. That's it? You didn't even give the game a chance. Did you even make it out of chapter one? If so, did you move past chapter 2? Which challenges did you do? Herbalist? Horseman? Weapons Master? Gambler? Any of the others? What about the Stranger Missions? How many of them did you do? How much did you try to fill up your compendium? How many enemy gangs did you fight? Which towns had you been to? Had you upgraded any of your equipment? Had you found any of the treasures? Did you hunt or fish for any of the legendary animals? There's immensely more than that. More than I can mention. it bugs the hell out of me when people only give a game like this a quick try and never play it again because they think the game has nothing. If it's just not the kind of game you like that's one thing. But to quit after only a couple hours and say it has nothing isn't fair to the game. It takes days to begin to get a sense of the game. You have to stick with it, or watch someone else play it. That's how I got into it. I watched @Rain Dew play it. I never enjoyed western games either. I was and always will be a fantasy girl. But this game expanded my horizons far beyond what I would have thought possible. I'm not trying to change your mind, or tell you that you're wrong. I do disagree with you, but to each their own. I just feel that you didn't give the game a fair shot.
  8. These things are great to have if you use a laptop very much, especially if it's your main go-to for gaming. It actually does save a lot of physical stress on your body.
  9. Zelda A Link To The Past I had a game on the cart that I had since I was a kid, because it was a file that I did a complete runthrough without stopping. I never stopped to save and played the entire game in one go. I wanted that perfect score, and I also wanted to know if I could beat the entire game in one go. But then a couple years ago, the file got lost from my foot catching on the cord to the controller, and the file was lost. A file that I had had for about 20 years that actually meant a lot to me. Needless to say, I was pissed.
  10. She voiced Viconia Devir. Who that character is, I have no idea. Her work says it's original mod. I don't know if that means it's the original script of the game or not. But either way, she's in it.
  11. Is he rich? How the hell can he afford that? Smart phones aren't cheap and you have to pay one off before you can get another. That's ridiculous.
  12. I just wonder what a perfect score looks like. It looks like the highest score anyone has gotten is 11/15. So I'm curious what image you get and what comments it makes.
  13. What the fuck do you know about women? You have no clue what we want or like. Keep your misogyny to yourself, before you try to tell us what we want instead of asking us what we want. Not all women are gold diggers. But all men like you are assholes.
  14. What the hell does race have to do with any of what you said? And how does your bigotry make anyone who owns a gun low educated and/or mentally fucking ill????
  15. Hence, he believes he is above all others, and everyone is inferior to him.
  16. I wouldn't say that I was ever shocked. I know what I'm dealing with when I encounter the paranormal. I've done a lot of my work in abandoned houses and forgotten cemeteries. These days, I tend to take on clients more than anything. I've found both benevolent and malevolent entities when investigating. I have motion detecting cameras, laser grids, EMF meters, temperature gauges, spirit boxes, digital audio recorders, and a few other bits of technology. I also have some software on my PC that I use to analyze results. There's a few items that I still want, but I'll have to wait on them until I can actually spare the $ to get them. Some are really pricey.
  17. I despise all that flashback shit. It literally makes me want to puke.
  18. These days it's mostly heard from those of us that are left hand path.
  19. All hail Farron Balanced. He hits the nail on the head in this video, and it should be our heads that are on top of those nails.
  20. How can you bring yourself to play one of those things? 🤢🤮
  21. It's so easy to build one, that I'm surprised a lot of people don't do it. The only part I would have to have someone do for me is the art on the sides.
  22. Excluding Virtual Boy and WiiU, I have every single console Nintendo has put out. But I'm not going to call myself any kind of loyalist. I play PlayStation and Xbox as well, so loyalist would be the wrong label. Fan is the right one for me.
