I have decided that axe handles send better messages than shotguns. You need to kill the alpha male up close and let the little boys see the splatter on your hands and face. Fear of the unknown will keep them in line.

My kid got into the IB program this past Spring and has orientation starting next week and it will last until the beginning of school... During the sessions, she will register for her first year of Middle School..... Someone is getting older. I think it is her mother.

I hate my job sometimes. The only thing I had energy to do last night after getting home at 9PM was eat dinner, go to sleep, wake up at one in the morning for no reason at all, do the fucking Coyote Cross Country Triathalon with Franklin (there is no way that the Global Ranking for first place is legit), go back to bed, wake up at six, and get to work by eight.

Shit, it is almost October, isn't it? Where has the summer gone? Occulus is sitting in my Redbox queue waiting to be watched. I am looking forward to comparing viewing notes with fellow horror core fanatics; Burgundy and Jingus. I miss Manos99 but he has moved on to serious journalism.

Ca$h Card$.

Good to see that the guilt by association bug has been fixed. Manual targeting option is probably there to keep you from having to eyeball ground vehicle targets like tanks and cars. Unfortunately it will probably make it easier for lag switch users to missle individual players to death, too.

I think you're missing the point of griefing vehicles of choice getting equal treatment. There were already mechanisms in place to spot / defeat twanking (Rhino armor being nerfed, splash damage being adjusted, watching fucking WEAZEL before going outside, the fact that you can hear explosions clear across the city, etc.) but a Lazer can be on you in no time flat, and it's not like you have a lot of time to bring up your mini-map before the pilot starts his attack run. Icons for Lazers and Rhinos on the mini-map would be life savers.

Such a bullshit way of dealing with a perfectly civil discussion. An admin decided to close a thread. There is a long standing board policy of not discussing "current events" Shit always gets ugly in threads like those especially when you have anonymity on your side. I can barely discuss this matter with people I have emotional investment in like family and friends, much less co-workers with whom I have a casual relationship.. The Ferguson thread was a boiling kettle with a cork jammed into the spout.
-
These are game changers. Not sure how I feel about the tank icon. All but neuters the Rhino in free mode and doesn't really do diddly since most griefers are now ace Lazer pilots now and those don't have a fancy icon on the map to warn you.
-
It is bad enough that assholes fly around in Lazers strafing the city with explosive bullets.. The last thing free mode needs is a fighter jet that players have covenient access to. If the devs are dumb enough to put the Hunter or the Hydra in the game, they should at least level-lock the damned things.

I knew that Frank Darabont penned the awesome screen adoptations for The Mist, The Green Mile, and Shawshank Redemption in addition to all of the kick ass work he's done on The Walking Dead, but I totally forgot that he co-wrote the screenplays for the totally fucking king-sized late 1980's reboot of THE BLOB~! and mother fucking Nightmare On Elm Street 3: THE DREAM WARRIORS~!
-
I was also surprised by this. Would've been a good time for a Rusev run-in to beat down the Mizzark and give Show and Henry a win by DQ while putting Rowan / Harper over strong by letting them smash Big Show. Show & Henry don't need the rub from destroying Team Snake Handler.

Destiny trailer featuring Mars and special guest enemies, The Cabal, is up on XBox Live. Venus is scheduled to be posted next, if it isn't up already. Looks like we will be fighting the Vex on the second rock from the Sun. I am particularly intrigued by the armor customization that the Guardians have as shown at the 0:30 mark of the video. The glowing emblem that the Warlock has and the helmet with the sensor array on the faceplate worn by the Titan must be uber rare.

Because Augie is dumb and indiscreet. He and Annie just need to get back together and stay hooked up. It is the only network I watch regularly. If I am not haunting the movie channels or gaming, I am usually tuned into USA. GRACELAND, MOTHER FUCKERS~!
-
I have heard pretty good things about it and am inclined to check it out since I like Asano's work and am a big fan of Chandler's crime novels.
-
Rusev gag reflex selling the gut bump after the splash was number one and the best. Filming for this Dean Ambrose movie had better be quick. I don't know how long you can afford to keep that guy off of television.
-
It better be. I need this match more than oxygen. What a great fucking show last night.

If completing the Flight School challenges actually boost the Pilot skill. I haven't confirmed or denied that yet via experience of the GTA Forums. I am actually more interested in what bugs got fixed by the update. Looks like completing all of the Flight School challenges unlocks Special T-Shirts in addition to paying out cash. You can also see the Classic Coquette in the background in his garage. There is a rumor that getting all Gold medals in filght school will unlock a free aircraft, but that is unconfirmed. As usual, I expect there to be a special event this weekend when I will be out most of the time with my girlfriend and my kid.
-
Got the update. There is a mocked up Airbus with military livery, a shuttle chopper, and a jet trainer that appears to be modeled after the T-38 Talon or something similar. There is also a Classic Coquette which looks like a '65 Corvette Stingray from the front. I haven't tried the Flight School stuff yet. I'll bet that players who haaven't maxed out their Piloting were hoping for a mechanism to raise their skill without racing aircraft or dealing with the tedium of stealing and flying a helicopter or an airplane around the city for hours on end, but it looks like they will be disappointed. Made some progress in Story Mode after RAW went off last night. Second playthroughs are the best sometimes. RIP Mark Fostenburg and Peter Dreyfuss. I remembered to pop the tires on Peter's SUV with a silenced pistol so I would get to chase him down the street and listen to his litany of psychotic reasons why he killed Leonora Johnson. What an entitled prick. It felt good to beat him to death in the middle of the street with a baseball bat. As for Mark Fostenburg, fleeing the scene in a golf cart after a commiting a quadruple homicide and stealing a million dollar custom made driver is one of the best things you can do in this game as Trevor. And buggy game is buggy. I forgot that even though the game requirement for Gold is to kill Fostenberg, the post event news story in The Daily Prattle Online reports as if he is still alive.. I am pretty certain he did not survive that headshot. Kidnapped Al Di Napoli (again) for Nigel and Mrs. Thornhill.. Realized that Dubstas have really shitty handling so I did not have to follow Al so closely while pursuing him. Kept him in sight without getting even one scratch on Nigel's car. Gold Medal! And sometimes second replays can be the worst. Rampage Three can eat a bag of dicks. It took me three tries to hit the 50 kill threshold for Gold because pussy Ballaz gang bangers would wait in cover forever and when they did come to fight me, they would floor me with an near miss RPG round while I was in Rage mode. Precious seconds would tick off of the death clock as Trevor lay there on the ground, but stunned is better than dead. Next story mission will be Dead Man Walking (14 Headshots = Pain In The Ass) and then casing the port for the Merryweather job. I think I will have Michael buy the Sonar Boat Landing to get Submarine Parts and Nuclear Waste out of the way and then I will beat the Airport race with Franklin and track down the Spaceship Parts. At some point I really do need to focus on the Under The Bridge / Knife Flight challenge.

Morishima vs. Homicide looked horrible on paper but turned out to be awesome aside from the jumping hip attack that only hits oxygen. Jesus, I'd never take a Backdrop Suplex or a Ura-nage from this guy.
-
Stats always apply when you are trying to survive Gold matches. That, and Vorcha can't count anyway.
-
Spears are shit anyway if they are delivered by anyone not named Goldberg.. Just flying shouder tackle the guy to the ribs and let him sell the impact. Don't grab the dude.
-
Cena just getting mauled by Brock was brilliant booking. It would've been dumb to farm out Lesnar to Cena just after the guy breaks the most celebrated run in wrasslin' history.
-
Xfinity also has a sizeable Funimation OnDemand queue but damned if I can make heads or tails of it. Doesn't really matter because full seasons of the stuff I love like Last Exile is on the YouTubes. And thank God for Adult Swim OnDemand. I have finally figured out what the fuck is going on in BLEACH.
-
If Brock is going to double swerve (I abosolutely think that it should happen), I'd save that for later. Brock should definltely be out for Brock and not for the Authority. It would not break my heart if Brock snapped Chosen One Randy Orton in half just because he could, because Randy is the #1 Contender, and to send a message to the Authority.
