Totally agree. I still fire up FM6 on the regular to do Nordschleife hot laps, but Horizon 3, while visually stunning, really underdelivers on actual racing because so much of it is off road or mixed surface. You want to be driving amazing super cars at the limit, right? Driving through fields and water hazards and…

That’s not at all what I’m saying. I’m saying that his lack of perspective here is hurting his take on the issue. Mental illness is an extremely highly-individualized thing. just because he’s managed to accomplish what he has in spite of his illness, it doesn’t mean that everybody else should be held to the same…

Your experiences are not universal.

Beemer/Beamer actually refers to BMW motorcycles, while Bimmer refers to their automobiles. #themoreyouknow

I consider myself lucky to have been able to play SWG for almost a year before they gutted it, first with the CU and then the NGE. While it was a deeply flawed game, it was also above and beyond anything else on the market at the time for MMOs. The depth, complexity, and openness created a lot of headaches, but if you…

It looks intimidating, but it’s not as bad as it might seem, especially if you’re an omnivore. I personally have to exclude pork from my diet, but as per Low FODMAPs, all meats are on the table. That, lots of rice, the vegetables I still can eat, etc, make up most of my diet. The thing about Low FODMAPs is that it’s a…

I have! I really did the diet as a trial-and-error thing, never strictly adhering to it, as I was lucky enough to see a GI doc within the first year who let me know that it was IBS. The problem is I have quite a few triggers-Fructose, Galactans, and Polyols are completely off the table. I drink lactose-free milk and…

Thanks for the info, wish I could edit my post!

As someone suffering from IBS, it sounds a lot like what you’re going through. Doctors can’t tell me what the hell’s going on either, and this is Year Three. The Low FODMAP diet (developed at Stanford) is the closest thing to a do/don’t list I’ve got: http://fodmapliving.com/wp-content/upl…

Homeboy was probably born in 1997 and isn’t quite aware that “reality” and “fox news” are rarely in sync.

Gotta love that you were wrong, have always been wrong, and can’t bring yourself to admit it. But yeah, who cares about facts?n Your feelings are more important. She didn’t make the costume and it’s definitely cheap because in your gut, you know it’s true, right? Give me a break.

Try again. Ginny (blue) made that costume herself. Gotta love keyboard warriors.

It’s a shame they fucked up the game so royally that maybe 5% (a generous estimate) of their playerbase was from before the original game by the time it got shut down.

Aaand it looks like I’m back in the greys for some reason?

Alex Roy’s bombastic quote notwithstanding, it really sucks what happened to /DRIVE. I believed in it, and paid for Drive+ until about 2 months ago when it became clear the content had dried up and wasn’t coming back. Hope they have better luck with ‘The Drive,’ though I suppose time will tell.

Ahhh, Windsor. 6'9, over 200 pounds, 30 years old, pretending to be 17. Someone’s getting fired.

This day has been coming for a while. I’m sad for anyone who was still holding out hope for this game, but as a former SWG player, I’m more relieved to see one of the last remnants of SOE crushed into the dust. How I hate them.

Except that Drumpf is a family name, which rose to prominence in DIRECT response to Drumpf’s criticism of Jon Stewart’s stage name. Tit for tat, bucko.

Schadenfreude at its finest.
