Started using ESDF to get more keys in WoW, and will never go back. It’s the same, but better. I also have my mouse wheel remapped to up for kinetic and down for energy, but I reserve MMB for class abilities and air dodge, largely because of hunter dodge and aerial dodge. It’s been my experience that you don’t want…

Guys guys, you’re both wrong. You have to put class ability on MMB so that the hunter dodge can be easily accessed while strafing left or right! (I did actually have both super AND grenade on MMB at various times initially).

I’m a big fan of Cracker Barrel myself, and I gotta say... the last time I was in there, I kept getting this weird, uncomfortable feeling without knowing why, and eventually I realized that it was because in an absolutely packed dining room there wasn’t a single non-white person. It was kind of creepy.

Very appropriate content-wise. Mild cartoon violence against monsters. You can take or leave the romance as you see fit, although I imagine it affects the ending. The question is, can he read the conversations and understand them, and will the management aspects fly over his head? The answer to these questions may…

Donating to everyone on both sides is and always has been the most sure-fire way of turning cold hard cash into political influence. Oh wait, I mean “free speech.”

Wait, random gear perks are gone? I actually thought those were a pretty great idea on all non-exotic gear.

I realize I’m not showing my work either, but you can look it up pretty easily. Estate taxes are meant to stop massive concentrations of wealth accumulating over multiple generations as one method to blunt the inevitable class wars and revolution that inevitably followed. Estate taxes in developed countries virtually…

That... is pretty well written. Bravo!

Believe it. I waited three weeks before I pulled the trigger on this, and those are 21 days of my new, 20XX-enriched life wasted. Goddamn this is a good Megaman X game.

This makes me feel sad I just brought back two super famicoms from Japan...

You realize there’s a difference between, say, jaywalking and murder, right? Yes, of course it would be different for a different crime. Welcome to the U.S. Justice system. We treat people differently at all stages of the justice system depending on what they’ve done.

Is it bad if I say yes, but substitute Alabama for Maine?

So far as i know, everyone does say those things about white poverty. You hear it every day. Except the culture of poverty one. I honestly wasn’t sure where the comic was going till then, because you hear the other three all the time about the poor in general. A lot of white folks seem to have a problem with black…

An old bookshelf that I bought and never assembled has now become sort of a defacto shrine to my Japan trip. :)

Yeah, there’s stuff I’ll miss, and some stuff I won’t miss. Like, the first thing I did when I got back was drive to Whataburger at midnight and park myself next to the soda fountain. But I find myself thinking about it all the time, now. It was very clean, and safe, and restful. And beautiful. More beautiful even…

If it weren’t for the space constraints, buying statues would’ve bankrupted me, but I ended up not buying a single one. Oddly, I think there are far more anime statue shops in Aki than any other kind of store by about 2:1, including electronics, gaming, and manga. Even more than porn.

Frequent flyer miles. Seriously. After two years of saving them up, I didn’t have to pay for the plane ticket, and 10 of the 15 days I stayed there were also covered.

It’s not as impossible as it may seem. My friends and I saved frequent flyer miles from our credit cards for two years. By the time I went, I didn’t have to pay for the plane ticket, and only paid for around 20% of lodging. It’s just a matter of planning over a long period of time.

That’s awesome! Now if we could only get one in Texas...

Really? Fascinating. If I’m ever in the area on business, I’ll be sure to make a point of stopping in.
