  1. That and Xavier's "Mastermind, baby!" line right before that had me in stitches. They should just shut off the commentary team and mic up Xavier during New Day tags going forward.
  2. You still live near Dothan? It rained yesterday some, but I don't recall it ever being too over the top. Also, I think I currently have 3 mission-related heroic bounties that I can knock out today to finally hit level 2 Vanguard. I've only played about an hour this week.

    Mad Max

    You neglected to mention that it's a FLAME-THROWING guitar. In any other movie, I would've rolled my eyes every time that guy showed up on screen. But in THIS movie, in a world THIS bizarre...sure. I'll buy that some psycho megalomaniac thought that was a worthwhile allocation of precious resources. It was kinda awesome that you could hear him playing in the distant background sometimes. I almost made my Letterboxd review of this: "everything you need to know about this film is showcased with a guy standing atop of one of the vehicles while shredding death metal with a flame throwing guitar." It is both insane and poetic. After the first 30 minute action sequence, I was wondering if Miller was going to let me catch my breath. It's safe to say that I left the theater last night both elated and exhausted.
  4. I did my first Daily Heroic yesterday. Other than getting some Helium Filaments, the engram from Cryptarch was especially insulting (Level 16 Gauntlet, only 3 light max).
  5. Aren't the ROHBots doing the usual turn the long-reigning champion heel bit, which could make things interesting because isn't Moose a heel as well? I follow ROH so casually that I have a hard time keeping up with it all. Plus, ROH does not broadcast in Dothan.
  6. I just wish I could properly use the free version of Spotify on my phone. I hate that you can only shuffle playlists or albums on there instead of listening to them beginning to end in full.
  7. I tell myself every year that I will skip Madden this year. I am done diluting myself. I do tend to trade it in quicker every year.
  8. I haven't touched this in a couple of weeks, so I'll have to try that when I get home.
  9. I did the Archon Priest Strike in the Strike playlist at Level 22 last night. It was what popped up in the Wolf Playlist. I forgot how frustrating this strike can be with half the battle being just survival and trying to keep your other teammates alive. Granted, this may be from not playing this strike a lot and not learning a great spot to camp out to take care of business, but this Strike more so than many of the others seems to be more chaotic when it relates to how enemies spawn.
  10. That final shot tonight could have easily have been the series finale. That might have been Don's first real, non alcohol induced smile of the season.
  11. I was waiting to get the DLC until I got closer to 30. I may cave on it once I get to 26 or so, though.
  12. I see you on a bit, but never throw you an invite. Yeah, I think that's been my mistake is I have been balancing Vanguard and Crucible. I am close enough to level 2 in Crucible that I will hit it, and I am pretty close to Vanguard too but have yet to hit my marks.
  13. Terrible officiating there down the stretch to help the Cavs have enough time to hit that buzzer beater. Just awful.
  14. I feel stuck at 24. I am still trying to increase my Vanguard and Crucible ranks, but I also cannot seem to drop gear that has more than 15 max light. Is this the game forcing me to invest in some of that purchased gear/attempt to run through a raid?
  15. I attempted the weekly as a 24 with another 24 and a 26. Let's just say it didn't go very well.
  16. Hulu sent me an offer for a month free, so I turned it on in order to watch a couple of Criterion selections. I will try to post what I can see in this thread.
  17. I'm wondering how hard it'd be to pull off 9 more Strange Coins this weekend so I can pick up Obsidian Mind.
  18. I always claim to be a writer, but I have not written anything substantive in quite some time. I want to get back into the habit in the next few weeks/months and write a couple of short stories/short screen-plays before moving into something much more long form. My biggest obstacle in recent years is two parts: 1) the patience/persistence to work through something, 2) I have a writer's self-loathing down to a science. I can't write more than a paragraph or two without thinking something is garbage. I need to learn to let things play out as much as they can in my head and then go back and adjust as opposed to just hitting delete.
  19. I have a feeling I am going to cave and buy the Expansion bundle next week.
  20. I think this year just had a weak headliner pool to choose from for Summer Festival season, which has been showcased by most of the lineups we've seen this year. It's going to be a good thing for smaller festival attendance this year, as festivals like Shaky Knees, Wakarusa, etc. may seem more appealing for people trying to narrow their genre options since the larger festivals aren't pulling in those huge top billing acts in their top 3. That's what was disappointing about this year's Roo. I don't feel that their top 4 set my world on fire. I don't view Kendrick as a headliner yet. I've seen Mumford already and thing their mystique lessens with each album (Wilder Mind is about as underwhelming as you'll find), and Billy Joel just feels like a weaker legacy act for a festival who in recent years has pulled in Sir Elton, Sir Paul, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, original Beach Boys, etc.
  21. I think I bought it on a flash sale over the holidays for like $12, so I am sure you'll see it at that rate at some point.
  22. I ordered both 2015 PWG shows over the weekend. They came in today. I was surprised how fast they got here. I have always heard that PWG's shipping is horrendously slow.
  23. I think people picking "mainstream" albums would be good for me, as I often overlook recent pop and rock stuff out of hand. It would be good for me to sit down and reacquaint myself with it. Yeah. The whole point is to put everyone up on what everyone's listening to, whether that be someone on the new Hunger Games soundtrack or someone who's just generally hungry. Do not fear. The odd thing is that most of what I listen to is by no means like main-stream radio stuff. A lot (not all) of what I listen to is your typical indie-alternative, indie-folk, singer-songwriter, occasional progressive band that you would find on say Alt-Nation, The Spectrum, XMU, etc. on Sirius.
  24. I loved everything about tonight's New Girl finale. A perfect send-off for one of the characters. Two perfect cameos, and a lot of stuff in this series four seasons nailing a perfect crescendo.
  25. I just finished the Black Garden mission. I am amazed I made it through it without getting killed and respawning a section back. I had a few close calls. I thought for sure the third statue was going to do me in which would have really angered me considering the run I had hit. I am surprised that there was no trophy for beating the main story.
