If Bob Costas wears a rainbow blazer and gets arrested we can give him props and won't have to watch him cover the Olympics. It's a win-win.

I'm completely bookmarking 7 Cups of Tea. I know once I no longer have my current insurance that seeing a doctor might be difficult and that I may not exactly need one so this seems like a pretty good option.

One was the general EA panel where they shared the stage with people from EA, one was a general one about BioWare, one was about communicating with the community, and one was about... romances I think? They were busy that weekend. And they were only a 2-person team!

To be fair, he was at least dreaming about a Simon sequence of Indigo Prophecy.

What I'm hoping for is for the technology to be expanded upon. Using a touchscreen computer table that can recognize miniatures, dice, etc. would be awesome and far more space saving than current setups. Maybe in the future we can roll, have the table recognize it and start doing calculations, and then our turns…

The people from Bioware who went to GaymerX were also amazing. Witty, fun, and did about 4 panels over the course of the 2 days. Even when they were talking about the shitstorms they never lost their cool. Fantastic folks over there.

I've been dealing with clinical depression and I sorta did find it funny. I think, and maybe they weren't exactly going for this, that a lot of the "bad" stuff she doesn't deserve is sort of like what depression feels like. You think all this bad stuff is going to happen to you but it's ridiculous and absurd to…

I'm older now, and I never want to watch the same movie more than twice. Ever.

This is something that's been on my mind for a lot of reasons. I'm young and make "decent" money (less than $30k but enough to pay my bills as they are now) but want to try and move to a different industry or role. I know I'll have to at least make what I make now in order to continue paying my bills and move…

I think I may stick to Waze now that it's search is better. While it and Google Maps gave up in the same area of Berkeley, Waze was able to recover faster and could recalculate a route faster than Maps could. It also rarely had the navigation arrow moving with my location but on the wrong part of the map like Maps…

I'm not sure if they're full-on projects but I do recall an income listing. Even so, they could have at least built... something... else next to it. I feel bad for the people who move into brand new apartments and are surrounded by mud and the stadium.

They built a bunch of brand new apartments across from the Coliseum on the other side of the BART station. Pretty nice looking facility surrounded by, literally, dirt and across from the giant grey structure of sadness. The rent is so low you can feel the management company begging people to move in. It's like a…

The bit about Calc is so, so true. A friend created some character sheets in Excel for us to use in our tabletop games but Calc sometimes messes up the things he created so I end up with cells that are broken. Though it works far better than the mobile office suite which just explodes when I try to use the…

On OSX it does lag a bit at start up. It takes a few seconds to get going and can hang a bit when you opt to open a file vs. start a new document but it's barely an issue at all. But once you're in, you're fine. I've not really noticed too many issues with it though I usually just use it for Writer and light use in…

If that's where Yusei and the gang from Jojo buy their clothes then SIGN ME UP! I want fancy coats with shoulder pads and a bunch of crazy colors.

I used to have to sign off on the receipt to prove I picked up the item which, really, is pretty standard practice. Lately I just give them my phone number/receipt and they hand me the game and new receipt. I think that shift was maybe 2-3 years ago now.

The salon I go to does model calls but they aren't free. Heavily discounted though so it's still good! I even get to see my usual stylist since I generally schedule with the junior ones anyway. I try to go to model calls when I can but it's tough to get a spot on those days- remember that and call as soon as you…

I think there should be the option for both. Sometimes save points in games where you can save anywhere aren't necessarily there for you to use but as a reminder that you should save. I find that if a game doesn't have save points I tend to forget and have to rely on an autosave from before something important or an…

I'm kinda excited. Yeah I thought Fairy was kind of silly since they've had years to add it when it made sense (ie Gen II) but whatever. The Mega thing seems interesting and is clearly 100% optional (of course Angry Internet Commenters hate things that are optional). Though if the Super Training is pretty cool. A…

Me too... But then again, on TBS they can say "shit" and do weirder stuff that the big networks can't/won't allow so it's a slight bit of a boon.
