I have only had it as a frozen drink. It is pretty tasty. I only get them on Saturday or Sunday between 2 and 5 though since they are a buck I think during that time period.

 
I haven't done any drugs but I think between doing coke and ecstasy and having sex with Erin Andrews and having to play basketball in Iraq, it's pretty clear which is the better life

 
One thing I have learned from the Zen Pinball 2 tournament is where the name "Stotch" comes from. Get mad at me, Tyler. Just be sure to quote this for context.

I didnt know where Stotch came from either until I played the Stick of Truth. I guess I never paid attention to their name before.

Woah I'm playing Stick of Truth now...what a coincidence. I like the part where you get to fart.

Apparently they're going to have sangrita blast available to buy too. Yes!

Also, the last time I was in target they had 12 packs of no less than 5 varieties of mountain dew.

One of the Taco Bell's near me has Mt Dew Orange Kickstart.  It didn't taste all that good but it did have a little bump to it.  First time I saw it as a fountain selection.

Zimm, I picked up rock smith so I can finally fulfill my dream of learning to play guitar. What's a good electric beginners guitar I could use? I would like your expertise please :)

Edit: I'm asking for the guitar for Mother's Day so I'm hoping I can find one at a halfway decent price for the family to buy me :)

Rocksmith is a good tool to get you started and keep you practicing. Eventually you will learn more outside of the game. I would stay clear of the bundle packs. The guitars are kind of cheap. You can pick up a better instrument buying it separate. I'd start out with just a git, picks and the game. If you enjoy playing , pick up other supplies later on. A couple of good starter guitars are the Epiphone Les Paul Special II and a Squier Classic Vibe series. Don't give up. It takes a lot of practice to learn the guitar.

I'm probably not the best person to ask, as I've never really owned a guitar of my own (I play bass).

I would go to a local used instrument store and talk to those guys there. We did that for the guitar we bought my son. They'll have lots of knowledge and a used one will be just as good as new for beginner purposes, just much cheaper. And you could probably score a better deal on an amp and other things if you do a combo deal.

Make sure you try out anything before you buy it though. Even if you don't know how to play it, at least hold it and get a feel for it.

+1 for finding a comfortable neck profile.

Not necessarily. Yeah the notes are (relatively) the same on the first four strings, but guitar strings are much closer together and all the chords. My fingers were too fat and unwieldy to manage the little strings and play chords well on a guitar. Bass you mostly only have to finger one fret at a time.

So yeah you could pick up the other and kinda make a go at it, but it's not as easy as you think.

I agree it's much more difficult for a bass player to learn to play guitar than it is for a guitar player to drop down to the low end.

What Taco Bell has Dr Pepper? Maybe it's different by location but all of them here have contracts with Pepsi so no DP available.

But I'd still get Baja Blast because it's the nectar of the gods and you like corn dogs so your opinion is already invalidated in my book.

Dr. Pepper isn't Coke or Pepsi, it's its own thing. Some places get the good Doctor, some get his med school dropout brother Mr. Pibb.

I had a friend who tried to teach me in high school, but he didn't really know how to teach it, he said he just went by ear.

The only thing I can't remember is if I need a left handed guitar since I'm a lefty or if I was okay playing right handed
 
Capybara retweeted one of our shameless and despicable "news" articles. Always cool when developers are willing to interact with us and stuff.

To expand on this, 7Up is the same as Dr Pepper. It will depend on who distributes for the Dr Pepper Snapple group in that given area as to what places will carry Dr Pepper. In the south, since Coke products are King, they are almost always in locations that serve Pepsi.

It's the opposite here. Despite the fact that Coke has their own DP substitute in Mr Pibb, Dr Pepper is almost solely found in places that distribute Coke. If you see Pepsi on the fountain here then there's almost no chance you're getting DP.

What do places that serve Pepsi have as an alternative to Sprite/7Up out there then? I used to think that 7UP was a Pepsi product because it is always available here at Pepsi places. I did not realize until recently it was tied to Dr Pepper instead.

FYI, RC Cola is also part of that same group. A&W, Schweppes, Sunkist, and Yoohoo are some of the other brands.

I dunno. Sierra Mist maybe? I'm not sure, I never drink it.

Yeah, I can understand why you would never drink that stuff. I forgot it even existed even though if I am going to have a soft drink I prefer the lemon/lime ones.

After looking up more about 7UP, apparently Pepsi does in fact own the brand everywhere in the world except in the US.

 
Btw to the awesomenauts players. The trophy guide is out of date. The max level is like 150 since they go up everytime a new character is added. The good news is that the levels arent scaling so its the same amount of xp per level (I think)

The ones I goto here in NY have had it going back like 20 years. I remember getting that at one of my first jobs when I would go to the local TB for lunch.
