The same could be said for Kingdom Hearts 2 and every little mouseketeer is going to pick that up.

The same SHOULD be said about Kingdom Hearts 2. Seriously. Dont buy it right away. Nothing Square Enix makes is worth full retail

Sure, if she rated higher than a 6 because then I know the effort was worth it. I don't look forward to brown bagging and sometimes I won't even bother and just skip sex. The time spent having sex with a girl who is 'butter' could be spent hooking up with a prettier girl.
 
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying:
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying.
The glorious lamp of heaven, the Sun,
The higher he's a-getting
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times, still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time;
And while ye may, go marry:
For having lost but once your prime,
You may forever tarry

Shit, I can't remember the name of that poem...Something about virgins, obviously.
 
I had this idea the other day, when I was using a $20 Best Buy Reward Zone Gift Card.

The clerk tried to scan it, and it wouldnt scan for whatever reason, so he immediately crumples it up, types something in, and I get my $20 off.

Normally they scan it, and the unique number that it has becomes de-activated, so you cant use it again.

However, in this particular case, I should in theory be able to use that same gift card again, had I been wise enough to make a 2nd copy beforehand, since it wasnt actually scanned.

Deliciously Evil.

Didn't we already have a pirate vs ninja thread.

One things pirates have in their favor. There may be a ninja on some bottle somewhere in the world, but he'll never be as cool an alcoholic mascot as Captain Morgan!

Well I reckon this may be good timing. Does anyone know of a really good wine that the ladies like? Since I am home for spring break and we have a plethra of good liquor stores and none at college I wanted to treat a certian someone to a good bottle of wine.
 
Depends on "someone's" taste.

Personally, I'm more versed in white wine as the winery I worked at was just starting out and didn't have reds ready for the year I was employed there. Usually, a reisling tends to cover a wide spectrum of tastes as they tend to be in the middle of the sweetness spectrum and are generally very fruity. (Chardonnay tends to be bone dry while there are generic "table" blends which are on the sweeter side but still very good.)

Do you plan on cooking for the certain someone too? (This will undoubtedly affect which wine you would choose.)

If you're looking for a wine any woman will like, i sugges getting something sweet like a white zinfandel. Beringer will be fine.

If you're looking for a good wine that a woman with taste will appreciate, you can't go wrong with a nice red. I suggest wines from Argentina or Chile. I suggest Los Vascos Cabernet Savignon (~$9.00):

Man, that shit is delicious. A bit acidic, but good.

I'm really into thick meay zinfandel's. Something like this is good, but a bit more expensize (~$22.00)

There are other good one's too. Riesling is a good choice, especially if you are going to be eating a meal that is spicy. Cooking spicy food with a sweet wine is a great pairing.

[quote name='Strell']Just tell her it was expensive.

Problem solved.[/quote]

First, make sure that it isn't a boxed wine, or a plastic capped bottle.
Then, watch what she does when you present the bottle and pour the wine.

That will undoubtable tip you off as exactly how much BS you could get away with. (Of course, this is assuming you know something about wine as well).
 
Go to an expensive restaurant's dumpster and take the first bottle you find. Take it home and fill it with grape juice, with just a bit of vinegar for taste. If you have no vinegar, then pee in it. Close enough.

Put a cork in the top and melt candle wax all over it to seal it.

If you can throw in some fancy French sounding words as you serve it, that will probably close the deal. "Auu yes, zis iz zee gu-raytest bawttal of vine in ze zuthern provinces, mon cherie." A lit candle with a faint opiatic composition would help, but isn't overly needed in most cases.

Image is everything. Expensive image is better. Chicks dig expensive. Then when you finally ween yourself off CAG and go to RAG and can afford to take her to the nice restaurant, you can point out the bottle you originally gave her.

It is air tight.

While plastic bottle's may "look" cheaper, they are far superior to cork.

Plastic cap > Cork = FACT!
 
[quote name='munch']While plastic bottle's may "look" cheaper, they are far superior to cork.

I probably didn't explain that one well enough

A plastic stopper is one thing.
A plastic cap, such as that on Boone's Farm or Ripple is something entirely different.

I was refering to the later.
 
::shudder:: box wine.... uff.

if we're gonna drink boone's farm or something of that sort, let's go get a few cases of similar quality beer [schlitts, milwalkee's best, red dog come to mind] and some other alcoholic wonders such as mad dog 20/20 and a few of those wonderful "handles" of booze which cost about $8.

while we're adding to the shopping list, throw some tylenol/aspirin/ibuprofen on the list cause the hangover is going to be beyond righteous...

And I'm saying that a plastic cap, like found on Boone's Farm, will prevent wine from being "corked." More and more wineries are using caps instead of cork because they are A) cheaper than cork, and B) prevent corking.

And exactly how many people know that, really?
How many people actually keep up on the price of cork? Most high end wines still use cork, despite it's inperfections just because of that. The perception is still against the twist cap...
If you open a $200 dollar bottle of wine with a twist cap, most people would assume it's a lesser wine.
It's completely untrue, but that's the perception.

Strell is more right on his point that you'd think. It's all perception, and the perception as of now is against boxed and capped wine, despite they fact that they are far less to let the wine go bad.

$20 GC? Might have to get in on that...
 
Thanks guys. I aint cooking dinner or anything just wanted a nice wine to give her. She is a big wine nut who drinks it more socially and occasionally with dinner.
 
[quote name='whoknows']$20 gift card...hmmm...is that every Target? It could be worth it for that :D[/quote]
Don't know if it's at every target. I didn't see it in the weekly ads. Metroid Prime Hunters and several other games also had the sign that said it comes with a $20 gift card.
 
[quote name='flowery']Thanks guys. I aint cooking dinner or anything just wanted a nice wine to give her. She is a big wine nut who drinks it more socially and occasionally with dinner.[/QUOTE]In that case, do you have any way of finding out what she usually goes for? Seems like the simplest solution.

That actually helps... the perception issue just about disappears based on what you're saying. If she's a regular wine drinker to begin with, you don't have to worry about the whole "show" of it... the ritual uncorking really doesn't matter near as much as the wine itself.

Tetris DS is a little on the disappointing side. GameSpot's review, to me, is accurate.
