…if you know what I mean!!!

Zap Rowsdower would like a word.

Totally forgot about that, I have only really lived in NY and CA so I forgot how weird it is in a lot of states. At least in Quebec you can buy beer (of reasonable quality) and a certain range of basic wines at the grocery store.

Looking at the rest of this thread, I'm beginning to suspect that a deep hunger for revenge is growing within you each time your avatar-mate @ChancellorPuddinghead:disqus posts before you. Soon, unnecessary caps lock will be the least of our worries.

I actually got it as part of a "Pick Your Own Craft Six-Pack" thing at Wegmans, which probably speaks to the upscale targeting. But the six-pack is $10, so… $1.67 in combination with the rest of your Wegmans hipster/Boomer pack, I suppose. (Note: I adore Wegmans)

Yeah, I mean, their usual line like Genny Cream Ale et al is pretty drinkable for a generic canned local beer (beats Bud imho)… but yeah, hardly impressive. I've been known to drink it (with a THC boost) over Netflix at my broke friends' houses.

I'm technically not supposed to be drinking these days… but what the heck. Anyone else around here know what Scotch ales are available in the Montreal area? I see a few brands in the local shops / dépanneurs here (the best beer places are way too far away from my place in the Sud-Ouest) but from brands like La Chouape

Innis & Gunn is great (out here in Quebec you have to get it at the government-run SAQ liquor store chain), but it's a lot lighter and sweeter than any "Scotch ale" I've had. Plus that delicious bourbon barrel smokiness. Delish.

I guess I'm referring to the ambient stuff, which I just didn't care for as a matter of personal taste. Actually, though, it's been so long since I even tried listening to much Eno that I should probably just have another listen from a fresh, post-24-years-old perspective.

Just got back from a vacation, so I haven't had much time to dive into my intended pop culture for the weekend (mostly Cowboy Bebop, Sense8 (catching up on season 1 so I can move on to season 2), and a huge stack of old and new video games.

*Je n'ai pas regretté d'avoir mis La La Land au no. 1 sur ma liste des meilleurs films de 2016 avant de l'avoir regardé.

Cool, I'd love to hear your reaction to the Zelda book if/when you get it! I think I did a good job on the translation, although it's hard to objectively judge my own work, and especially hard to separate that judgment from my opinion of the source material. All told, it's a good book and I certainly hope I'm able to

Ah, well I am on PC when it comes to Overwatch, so I'll continue in the world of solo queues for now ;)

Cool, thanks. So what's your handle and when are you liable to be online? (Assuming you still play)

Yeah, once I got the hang of the defense matrix, I found D.Va very effective. Exact same experience with the effectiveness of self-destruct, though. Outcome of matches seems to be random depending on whether my teams know what they're doing (hold the damn point and push the enemies back as far as possible, people!!)

Oh yeah, I got my first non-"mass-market" board game for my birthday— it's called Nefarious and it has you as a mad scientist trying to out-invent your opponents. Not bad, my kids like it too although it's a bit complex at times. Ever heard of it?

Or the BFI for "Big F***ing Insight"

My experience in the industry was that the Spain dialect was usually preferred, as ridiculous as that seems given the relative population of Spain vs Latin America. But sometimes you would have a whole separate LatAm localization— I don't think either version is really "neutral" from the perspective of people who

I used to work in localization and I was always impressed when they managed to pull off a really good loc version. Do you know which agency did the Spanish version?
