Wow this is terrible. Its not "harmful" to order off the kids menu. Guess what? Eating out is usually a pretty unhealthy proposition in general. Food at restaurants is usually pretty high in fat and salt and the portions are usually larger than they need to be. Yes yes, of course you can make healthier choices,…

Grow up.

So… white guy defines what acceptable feminism is huh? I think Ive heard one of Trainor's songs and it was just disposable pop like nearly every damn thing on the radio. Why do you blame her? People just buy what she sells. And when did everyone sit down and agree what kind of feminism we are over? How did I miss…

They taste like oil. Very crispy but you really have to like oily stuff.

I have gotten xiao long bao at Lao Sze Chuan in Chicago. I wouldn't say they were amazing there, but if you are need of a fix. Siu mai is everywhere and its probably the easiest dumpling to make at home since theres basically no folding.

I'm not a big fan of these. We always order them, but I wouldn't call them a favorite. The mashed taro is not as good as mashed potato to me. Its texture is more watery and more grainy. Its less starchy and doesn't glue together as well as potato. I do really like how it crisps up on the outside into something…

I've been with Destiny since its vanilla release. I'm kind of mixed on Rise of Iron so far. I haven't gotten to the raid yet because my light level is still too damn low to participate. Bungie really screwed up on leveling light this time. Its too grindy just for the sake of being able to participate in the…

I disagree on shotguns but they require a specific mentality of constant movement and point blank engagement. When I do solo PvE I almost exclusively use shotgun, ammo allowing. The current game state makes them incredibly overpowered.

Destiny only requires a tap of the grenade button. It always throws with the same velocity. Only gear can modify your throw. But funny!

Destiny is really full of cheese spots. Theres almost always some spot or invisible line where you can be and enemies will leave you alone. For example in this mission, you can run back up the hill far enough and the enemies will not chase. They will stay down below and take cover. This allows you to recover or…

Unfortunately Gunslinger Hunter has some of the worst PvE grenades. Tripmines are super fun in PvP though.

I actually find Ryan's playthrough to be frustratingly cautious as well, but perhaps for the goals and purposes of this column I am being nitpicky. You should be taking advantage of the fact that all of the enemies emerge from a narrow hallway. That means they are all clumped and aligned for easy headshots. Kill as…

Also, totally recommend playing either Hunter or Voidwalker Warlock if you are going for PvP dominance. Voidwalker is my go to when I want to rack up the most kills, but Hunter (either sub is good) is my favorite playstyle. Titan is OK, but it really is disadvantaged in some key ways and I think to make it shine you…

Level 24 isn't beating the game. I know you mean the PvE campaign missions, but that still wasn't high enough level to do any Raids or even Nightfall strikes. You should come back after The Taken King expansion drops. It sounds like the first year of the game was a beta test and now they are totally revamping it.

Destiny addict here. You are going to get obliterated for a very long time if you are starting the game in PvP. Not to say it can't be done, but you need to be pretty skilled to do well at low levels. The current state of the game is such that there are a few very overpowered weapons, namely the exotic hand cannons…

Also we don't know that Semyon sent Ray to take revenge on the right guy. We haven't seen the aftermath yet. Presumably Ray kills the guy Semyon showed him, but its not clear. It is strongly implied that Ray's son isn't his own, and the fact the guy in the picture doesn't look anything like the boy may be the red…

Semyon is a reference to Simeon in the Hebrew Bible. I'm no scholar, just a wikipedia'er. Simeon and his brother take revenge on the inhabitants of a city for the raping of Dinah. Simeon's father condemns his actions because they will bring retaliation upon their family, and condemns Simeon's descendants to become…

I do what I can.

I felt like that whole thing was to show just how far gone Theon is (thereby making his eventual return more surprising) and to show how Sansa really needs to take her safety into her own hands.

Thanks for your thoughts.
