I have a good friend whom it just absolutely kills to say "I was wrong". If I blatantly point something out to prove her wrong, she'll usually just retort with "shut up" or "whatever" or just get quiet and changed the subject or look for some loophole to somehow try and prove she wasn't totally wrong.

I don't get it, but it drives me insane. It's not like she's a vain person or worried about what others think about her usually, but for some reason she's hard-wired to have to be right.

I can't imagine having a parent like that. Both my parents were super cool in that area luckily.

A woman admitting she's wrong? Good luck with that.

Agreed, although Idris' performance is great as always. Sherlock is holding strong though.

Affa still going when I dropped this shit an entire day ago. Please fall back. You injected yourself into it when it had nothing to do with you. I addressed him directly so none of this is necessary.

Of course you dropped it. You denied everything, claimed everyone who said something are victimizing you, doubled down on insults like 'banal', and then pretended to not continue it but still post about it (like this, and a couple others, like how we'll just attack you again in 4 months... another 'bait' post, by the way).

breakfuss said:
I'll debate/discuss/argue all kinds of shit anytime with y'all. Leave me out of these petty personal squabbles, though.
Click to expand...
You are the one who makes things personal with you subtle insults and baiting. I'm quite direct -- I think it shows a lack of character to be shown clear proof that you do, on occasion, bait, and instead of admitting your failings, deny it all and then double down on baiting.

If you'd just said "Oh shit, I guess I do bait sometimes" this discussion would have been over instantly and would never have escalated into anything. Instead you can't be wrong, so you deny it all, and bait while doing it.

I don't act like I'm always right. Never denied I like to debate/argue. What I don't do is bait. And prod.

Hey Tyler, any recommendations on ways to get the love the boom trophy in Far Cry? I think I cleared the outpost the guide mentions already, I may have to wait until I can reset them all to do it. I think it and the death from above(I think is what its called) trophies will be the most annoying. I may have a good spot to use the hang glider for it though, just gonna take a few tries to get it to work.
Click to expand...
For the Boom trophy, I just intentionally triggered alarms at outposts and waited for cars to arrive. A lot of them have 4 people in them, or you'll get two that arrive around the same and one rpg blast should take care of all of them since the car(s) blow up too. I think I even used a grenade not an rpg and still got it.

The death from above, there is a really easy spot to get it around the middle of the game. You'll be searching caves looking for pieces of a compass. One of the caves has a section strewn with bad guys and ziplines. There is literally an area with 4-6 on one platform next to a zipline. Just zip down there and try to land on one instead of shooting them from a far. You'll probably get overwhelmed and die when you land but it's an easy way to get that trophy. Way easier than anything I've seen in guides.

 
Can affa and break fuss take this to the frisky thread? I rarely get tired of seeing posts I dont like etc but Jesus christ i am tired of scrolling for 5 minutes to get past one fuck Ing post.

I generally like the taste of fast food. Del Taco is good (and whoever said they have pretty damn decent burgers is definitely right) but it doesn't beat the beefy 5 layer and Baja Blast at Taco Bell.

I mentioned their burgers were pretty good and those crinkle cut fries are tasty too.

Yeah I didn't love either bad guy as much as some of the other ones, didn't love where they took the story, and didn't like some of the things they tried to justify as legit (
Arresting Luther for the murder of Justin and attempted murder of that chick? C'mon! It's almost like they did it just so they could bring Alice back the way they did.
)

I liked the 3rd season of Sherlock quite a bit, but there was definitely others out there that didn't enjoy it as much.

I blew up 2 jeeps with an RPG and took out 4 guys but I didn't get it. I'm thinking maybe it counted as two explosions or something.

And I think I'm at the exact point in the caves you mentioned. Thanks for the heads up.
 
New poll is just coke vs pepsi preference, not "what's your favorite soda?".  If you don't like either, or don't drink soda, or whatever, just don't vote.

I voted coke because it goes better with rum. But I really have no preference. I drink either when out at a restaurant I drink whichever they have. I buy whichever is on sale at the grocery store that week too.

Ignore ninja squirrel. I need to be told what to do. Is the poll about specifically what cola you like or is it about all of their products? If so, I will need to make a spreadsheet of all the big match ups to help me make my decision. Coke vs Pepsi, Sprite vs Sierra Mist, Fanta vs Crush (is that pepsi?).

Slightly related: I've started seeing MD Baja Blast sold in stores in cans and 2 liters, so that's cool.

Unrelated: You are right that the last level of metrico is a pain.

Never been a fan of cheap mexican food. But the new breakfast menu and the Baja Blast are hard to stay away from (and no, not the waffle taco...but that steak breakfast burrito and those fucking cinnacrack bites are beyond glorious.) Although, I'm loving the fact I can go to the grocery store for Baja Blast now, smartest thing they ever did was to put that on the shelf instead of "exclusive" to Taco Bell.

yeah, I got that achievement on 360 in the same wy. Just blow up a car with an RPG or grenade and it should pop no problem.

Appreciate the cave tip though, I think I missed that one on my playthrough.

 
Bumslie said:
All I was saying is I like Del Taco over Taco Bell. It's definitely not my first choice for Mexican food but if I have to pick between the 2 then Del Taco wins every time. The mom and pop restaurants by far have some of the best Mexican food I've eaten in my life.
Click to expand...
Oh, I agree. I just saw an NC guy feeling bad that we don't have Del Taco here, and wanted to be clear that it's no big loss.

Now, In-N-Out Burger, on the other hand... that one I miss.

 
Best buy has a deal with Sony going. Buy a Sony tv and ps4 get knack, mlb 14, infamous and killzone free. They are digital and can be found cheap but I have wanted a new tv for our bedroom. They have a nice 40" bravia for 469. I am very tempted.

Both of my parents were/are like that. I wanted to kill myself frequently while growing up (half-joking). The two are probably related.

Usually the first movie is good and the 3rd movie is good, but the middle standalone movie is usually pretty meh. They didn't make that mistake in the 3rd season.

I fucking love soda (real soda, not that crap diet shit), but yea, I don't drink it because it is just bad for the body. My friends give me shit because I always lug around a 1.5 L of water and almost always have a black coffee in hand.

 
giant wall of text for crazydiamond
Yeah we don't even mess with myfreecams (girls only) or livestream/myjasmin, just go to chaturbate and you can sign up in 5 mins. We just have a crappy webcam and takes maybe an hour after you send in your face pic holding id and an id pic to get age verified. They pay out checks every 2 weeks, payout sucks cuz they take 50%, but still. Every token tipped is a nickel, so don't get discouraged your first few shows when you only make a few dollars, lol. You start to get followers and they are notified (usually) when you are online. You can't drink or smoke obviously on cam, but we have forgotten a few times, and they might just warn ya. I mean, you can smoke rolled up cigs and drink out of cups just don't be obvious. Make her do research and watch other cams so you know about goals, tip jars, auto reset goals, keep it going, crazy ticket shows, etc. We have been so fucking lazy and don't have any pix or twitter or amazon wishlist but there are so many bio things you can put up. You can upload your own pix/videos and also sell those through their site. If you ever have friends come over they also need to be age verified and 'sign' the contract. You can also put a disclaimer on the bio which prevents other online sites from using your videos/pix, but iv yet to copy/paste that also. You can get on and just go at it free show and hope for generosity or you can just sit and play video games and only do anything if anyone tips. or they can tip and you don't need to do anything and turn off your cam, there is no obligatory actions, but then you burn bridges and now they even have a karma meter that tippers can vote on. Dark purple/dark blue are the good tippers, greys have no tokens to spend. Light blue have some tokens, but you can sit on 1 token forever and be considered light blue. You can also do private/group shows where you make a set amount of tokens/minute and it is only 1on1 or 1and a few, but that also limits your audience... I am trying to think of what else to put but idk. Those blue chics did their first show on their own the other day and they only made like $2 and that's what I tipped them to try to get it going. They were full on les but it's a lil tougher for chix, even a few anime chix, compared to couples. but also they were just doing stuff for free, and even token holders won't tip if they know the show will just keep going. There are bots and programs they let you use also, which all do different app functions like notifier, tip boards, token keno, timers, slot machines, etc. Keno seems to be very popular because you can put a goal when board is cleared and just chill out talking, watching tv, chilln and only do stuff when it makes the ding noise of tips. Ya just put stuff up like flash, kiss, etc and they throw it around a board like bingo and they have to tip that amount to clear that #. only problem with that is if you put hardcore stuff and they go ham and throw 500 tokens and clear the whole board in a minute, lol. We were watching a show the other day and this guy tipped 5000. That's $250 and awesome, but they went from just chilling out watching tv with their friend to 'having' to have a dbl bj fuck session, and that were like oh wow thank you.... but that is seldom.

ummmm yup, just hit me up bro

Being serious now, I'd rather take the PS4 OS than the X1. Too convoluted in comparison to Sony's and games install 5 hours later. The Kinect gimmick wore off quickly and no exclusive from Microsoft ever called me to their side, so I sold it. And the Wii U? NOPE.
Click to expand...
I wasn't referring to the actual OS, only the frequency of updates. And I believe there's a media extender baked in so of course I'm envious of that. I don't know anyone who owns one so I haven't spent much time with it outside of demo kiosks.

@Luther I actually liked season 3 a lot and was satisfied with the conclusion. Plus, the red-headed chick...so sexy. Sherlock, on the other hand, I stopped watching after season's 3 first episode. The explanation given for what happens at the end of season 2 turned me off. I'm all for suspense of belief but that was some bullshit.

So at this point, I just have to get all runes/blueprints for Rogue Legacy and then beat it with less than 15 deaths. I'm at the last boss of my NG+, so I'm going to try and get everything I need on that before beating him.

 
Do you guys have people in your area doing the ALS ice bucket challenge on Facebook? I just did it and was thinking about doing another one to nominate people here, but then I realized none of you would actually do it because you're a bunch of wusses.

There's a place there called Cook-Out that's pretty good and really cheap. Awesome shakes (even though I'm severely lactose intolerant).

The one place I really miss is Bojangles, but not for the chicken. I'm obsessed with the boberry biscuits. I can eat like half a box in one sitting.
 
Can anyone suggest a good album to listen to while I grind out blocks in Surge Deluxe? Been keeping it 90s so far with Oasis and Third Eye Blind and such.

The Xbox OS is more limited than the PS4 one, except the Skydrive integration, which got better after they upped it to 15 GB.

Also, I love me some Ruth Wilson, so hot. And about the Sherlock explanation, if you pay attention, he never reveals the real truth of what happened.

I'm doing some gold runs so I can up my attack and health. What class did you use against The Land of Darkness boss?

Our taxes are nothing compared to big cities. And look how cheap housing and property taxes are. We also have "big city perks" like a football team, basketball team, hockey team, baseball team, performing arts center, museums, great restaurants and bars all within walking distance of each other. It's ridiculously cheap to live here for what you get in return - that's why so many damn people keep moving here.

We're not missing shit by not having shitty Del Taco. I can't believe Bums eats there with all the fantastic Mexican food around where he lives.

agree to disagree-- of course I am not sure how my a comment in jest was taken so literal

a few points-- you facts seem accurate if you live in or nearby Charlotte. I was referring to the state.

highest gas tax in the southeast. by far Yet Toll roads are being put up due to lack of funds

biggest cities in the southeast are in Florida. a state without state income tax

North Carolina is ranked in the worse ten states for taxes:

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/10-worst-states-taxes-2014-110000784.html

I guess it balances out that I can pay 100 dollars to see a hockey game-

Click to expand...
I only go for bosses when I have a barbarian king/queen because they're tanks. My biggest problem is getting hit too many times, so having a character with high HP is a huge plus. Then I put money into equipment with high armor and boost my HP/strength/armor in the manor.

If I don't get that class, I'll just go for gold to boost stats. I like the Spelunker class because it makes it easy to avoid areas where there's nothing of value.
 
I skipped a lot of overnight posts as I usually do. But good to see FakeFrisky is still fiercely leading the overnight crew he claims to hate yet fits in with so well.
 
Cook out (I forgot the name of it until you pointed it out) was pretty dope. Spent a summer at NC state and right off campus they one so I went there like every week. They had a shit ton of variety with their shakes and their $5 or $6 combo thing they had was good since they had a lot of sides and shit to choose from too. There was a bojangles right by it too but I never went there.

In-N-Out is my shit, though.

Letting someone have the last word means you stop responding. You're still responding.

Also, Topside isn't making fun of you, he's making fun of people who would use the comment four months from now. You really need to stop getting so defensive over every little comment.
