Stilton: Feels odd having the last week of a sale on the second day. Balance issues this time, I think. We were thumped yesterday with the first stage of an anticlimax. A shame, because there are some really good deals here.

CarrionCrow: They rubbed their zazz in your face, and then they took it away...
And there is definitely no zazz to be found in these parts. Just writing that makes me smile....

-laughing- Like you said, that clip is going to get a lot of play before this sale's over.

AgentBirdnest: Nah, that's just an average ;-)
Plenty of other little things I do to "let it out", that's just the most violent one (thankfully.) Blaming ElT always helps too :-)
Yes, it's better you do that than something that'll harm you. That never ends well.

Good evening everyone *big hugs and waves*

Back from sports...how are you all doing?
I was just going to put Grim Danfango in my cart, but being a wise Viking I checked those review things. Looks like they've ballsed up a classic with a crummy 'remastering' which has chewed the thing like an angry Doberman. People are reporting loads of issues which just shouldn't happen. Why the hell with that game? Lazy bastards.

Why? Brand recognition. Catch-all for "people remember it, so we're going to take their nostalgia, beat them half to death with it and take their money while they're still dazed".

Good evening. =)

Can't feel my face, but otherwise peachy. How are you?

Hi Crow
You can't feel your face? O.o?
Glad to hear that you're doing good otherwise :)

Well aside from having difficulties to sit (a tackle resulted in me hitting the gym floor with my tailbone) - i'm pretty good.

Anesthesia by Habanero? I've done that.

Nope. Cigarette in one hand, beverage in the other, sometimes alternating to type stuff. Too busy for idle face feeling, and not limber enough to touch it with my feet.

Ow. That really, really sucks. I hope the pain fades off and you didn't manage to get it broken. That's all kinds of painful.

That's a letdown, I already own Dam Frangringo.

EndreWhiteMane: Anesthesia by Habanero? I've done that.
Me too. Only with the actual peppers, though. I impulse bought some sweet relish that was supposed to be habanero lime flavored. No heat to it, even after eating an entire pizza covered in it (took about a third of the bottle) but it did make my stomach burn for days.
Hi again, folks! Man, I've been so out of touch lately. Can't focus enough to feel I've got something to say... so I just pop in every now and then with a "hello."
My head's all over the place, but it's mostly positive places... I'm planning on getting some "Kallax" shelves from Ikea for my records, and I keep thinking about having them in place... and I settled on a turntable I want to replace the one I've been using (to the detriment of my albums) which I've had since high school, and hasn't been kept in the best condition... plus, it's a really cheap player that isn't exactly kind to my record collection...
And then I wander off to what I'll be installing on the new pc, and what I won't be, and how to make peace with that.

Sarge is into a second round of teething. We thought he was done, he'd settled down, but he's gone through about half his toys in the past three or four days. I picked up a little tiny tire for him, and I've found putting ice cubes into the inside of the tire is one of the most fun things to do in the world. He goes nuts. He loves ice, but hard-to-get ice is apparently all the more valuable.

I feel sh*tty for popping in, talking about myself, not asking others about their lives, and disappearing again... I'll get better at that... I make light of the mental health stuff most of the time, but holy hell, it's hard to focus sometimes. It's one of my favorite things about Sarge... even when I have no clue how to communicate, he gets me, and I him, and there's never that feeling of "needing to lay low for a while."

How are you guys enjoying the sale? I haven't yet felt tempted enough to bite on anything, but it's been fun watching.

Sarge is asleep, I've been cleaning a bit, and my physical health has been good enough that I'm enjoying a beer. I'm considering getting into a bit of Dragon Age: Inquisition, but I'm at a place where all I have left on the war table is the DLC quests and the story quest, so I'm just going from area to area wrapping up side quests before going further into the story. I'd originally told myself I wasn't going to bother with shard collecting, but without even realizing it, I started collecting them, and now have almost all of them. I believe I need 8 more shards to complete the third of three quests that require them to open some doors in an old tomb. It's odd, I can't quite say I've enjoyed the past couple play sessions I've had with the game, but I am still determined to wrap up all the side quests before proceeding with the story. I keep thinking, "you could do the story quest and be done with this game pretty soon," but I'm feeling this drive to find ALL THE THINGS first...
I'm not used to that happening in games. I've never been a completionist. At least not until Pillars of Eternity and The Witcher 3. It's weird.

*Big hugs all around*

Oh...i see :)

Yes...it's not very pleasent although i don't think it's broken. I hope that it'll until tomorrow because i'm having long seminar tomorrow. Currently it's mostly literally a pain in the ass ;)

Is it really that bad? I didn't have a PC when it came out so I've not played it yet. By the sound of things I'm not missing much.

Silly person. You think you need to be...focused...to type here. -giggles-

Stop beating yourself in the head for not playing twenty questions with people every time you're here. Do you not do it because you're a dick? No. How do I know? Because people with no tolerance for dickishness like you just fine.

Sounds like it managed to grab you in the "gotta find it, hey I found it, let's go find more, oh hey I've already found such and such amount so I might as well find the rest" loop.

Here's some cleaning music in return. =)
