“Reader, I wrote “I hate this” in my notes, which I don’t believe I have done since I was reviewing Netflix’s horrific live-action Cowboy Bebop adaptation.”

Luke, every year you make the same claim and every year I want to scream at you: TIE Fighter is superior to Dark Forces in every way. I will argue this until the day I die.

Luthen’s speech was great. Stellan Skarsgard is just fantastic.

You bite your tongue! The Goosetache is not shitty!
(I just made up “Goosetache”, I’m absurdly pleased)

I thought this was an actual review of humankind, as in, humanity. People. Us.

You spelled The ‘Burbs wrong

I’m gonna be real with you for a moment: the first two years you really are going to want to put the gaming on the backburner unless you have a hugely forgiving wife. Late night feedings mean you’re both going to be sleep-deprived. There will constantly be toys/spit-up/thrown food to clean up. If the kid goes down for…

I still think that the punishment for cheaters on PUBG, or Overwatch, or whichever game you want, should not be a permanent ban.

I honestly can’t understand that first paragraph.

I use the wireless 360 controller w/ my Win8 HTPC and it's actually about the only thing that wasn't a problem... I've regretted my 'Screw it, let's just go with Win 8' decision at pretty much every single turn since then. I'd guess this is yet another failing of the OS, not the 360 controller.

***Beware Motionjoy Software/Drivers***

The best todo app for me is CARROT, I'm surprised it didn't show up here, since it was at lifehacker that I found out about it and then here again, when I saw that it was free. It's the only one that motivates me to keep looking at my to-do list without a bunch of messiness with folders and such.

VOTE: Black N' Red Twin Wire Poly Cover Notebooks

VOTE: Black and Red

I prefer Black 'n Red spiral notebook for note taking. Pages have a premium coating for smooth writing. Perforated pages can be removed and scanned easily. Fujitsu Scansnap scans a 70 page book on both sides in ~5 minutes.

Getting just under boiling is hardly a challenge. Boil a kettle. Wait for the bubbling to subside then pour. That will certainly be "about" 195-205F.
