  1. This was unironically one of my 10 favourite things ever in AEW.
  2. Racist Joke Swap is the best SNL bit of all-time. Che has always killed it but I have to give Jost credit for upping his game as it's gone along. The genuine fear in Che's voice the time he had to call out Kendrick Lamar was fuel.
  3. Just made this and tested it, makes a very bisciut-y bread that will be most excellent as part of the big day tomorrow. Whole wheat cheddar & herb soda bread 3 cups whole wheat flour (plus extra as needed) 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 ½ tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives 1 tbsp each chopped fresh thyme, rosemary, and sage 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 2 cups 2% milk mixed with 2 tbsp lemon juice or white vinegar or apple cider vinegar Instructions Prepare the milk: In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the 2 cups of 2% milk with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice or white vinegar. Stir and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. The milk will curdle slightly, creating a buttermilk substitute. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well. Stir in the chopped fresh herbs and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed. Gradually add the prepared milk mixture and mix until the dough just comes together. Whole wheat flour absorbs more liquid, so if the dough feels too dry, add a little more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently bring it together. Knead very lightly (just a couple of times) to form a smooth ball. Do not over-knead. Shape the dough into a 7-inch round and transfer it to a lightly floured baking sheet. Dust the top with a little flour. Use a sharp knife to score a cross about ½ inch deep into the top of the dough. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking for 30-35 minutes. The bread is done when it sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Remove the bread from the oven and wrap it in a tea towel while it cools to soften the crust. (optional)
  4. Man I gotta buy mine 10 MG at a time here, 500 goddamn son see you on the moon
  5. Is he live or dead / Are his thoughts made of bread Good to see the kids appreciating Black Sabbath during this festive time
  6. https://youtu.be/-AUE4ZrMItI?si=ZCU9_GLC9rJigMHr Always make time for the best 2 minute Christmas film.
  7. Gonna be honest, with all the carnage in the game industry through 2024 (which absolutely looks set to continue next year), I expect a lot of the big releases in 2025 to be particularly fucked up. It may very well be the Catch Up On My Backlog year I've been talking about for like 5 years now. Between that and POE 2 I might just be good.
  8. If Diablo Immortal didn't have such extremely aggressive pay 2 win mechanics as part of the endgame, it would be great. Whatcha gonna do?
  9. A question that my mind simply cannot wrap itself around is "what existed before time started", I don't think the human brain can actually handle the concept of infinity. It's like trying to explain C++ to a chimp.
  10. At the start of October I was still downing a family size bag of potato chips a day. Today makes it 60 days straight without potato chips and between eating better and excercise I'm down 28 pounds.
  11. Ananta https://youtu.be/n26InrperQE?si=5o3_qIn2qRZvA0Cq Apparently this is going to have heavy gatcha elements so uhhhhhhh Gotta admit it looks gorgeous though

  13. No spoilers here from me but that POE 2 act 1 boss was absolutely mindblowing. I admit I pooh-pooh'd this game a lot during development and all the talk of "the future of ARPG" and whatever but holy shit, that was amazing. I'm in big, big trouble, no one try and distract me for the next couple years.
  14. Early POE 2 thoughts: The skill gem system is very different from the first game. I haven't totally come to grips with it yet, but it feels easier to understand overall while also giving you better control over your build? Like you just find random uncrafted gems that you can turn into the skill you want as opposed to finding, like, 4 fireball gems when all you want is a summon skeleton gem in the first game or whatever. So that's neat. I feel like this approach should make experimenting with new builds significantly easier. I also dig the slower pace; the "everything melts instantly" pace of POE 1 that developed over time was a turn off to me where as I loved Grim Dawn which had a more Diablo 2-esque pace to it. This is definitely closer to the latter. I'm barely into it and can't really say more than that so far, but they definitely haven't fucked it up.
  15. Over a million pre orders on POE 2 so you might want a backup game if that was your plan for today lmao, we're gonna burn the servers so bad some engineer is going to write a tech paper about it, bless
  16. Down to 290 from a starting weight of 315, so 25 pounds down. Twenty to go to my initial goal. I'd stab a bitch for a bag of potato chips some days.
  17. POE 1 launched with significantly less. Choosing to forego finishing the middle acts of the game and instead give us a relatively full endgame at launch is 100% a winner's play.
  18. I'm all about that witch summoning an army of minions to do all the work for me.
  19. I don't think my body is ready for POE 2 but I'm going to give it the old college try anyway.
  20. https://youtu.be/gtF47OtalG0?si=XB7vjDmaVRztA1lP Why is Mongolia so cool
  21. I don't deny "Saudi Arabia bad" makes a very good point, but Jesus Christ wait until you find out about the rest of the world too
  22. You know, the more I see of Usyk both in and out of the ring the more he scares me. Like, all fighters trash talk and act tough it just comes with the job. But man, there is something in Usyk's eyes that is just different. He just stares into other fighters like he's thinking about how he'd actually be fine with cutting out their liver or something, it's unnerving as hell. There's just something in there that says "I'm really good at hurting people", and he backs it up with all the skills you could ever want. Some prime Roberto Duran shit.
  23. Oh and I didn't try the Oreo flavoured Coke because I failed to hear a single good thing about it, but I did end up trying the supposedly Coke flavoured Oreos. I have no fuckin clue who designed those but they've clearly never tasted a Coke before. I couldn't even tell you what flavour it was to me. It was just, like, an Oreo, but distinctly worse.
