I initially read this as serial horse rapist, and now I kinda can't not read it as such…

He'll never answer for this, but at least he picked up the bill.

Well, to be fair the very first episode had a goddamn tank sitting curiously pristine and lacking in the "zombies gooing up the treads" department, which, on its own could have saved the whole Atlanta quarantine zone with a drunk 9 yr-old at the controls…

Here's your brand new! Nissaaaaaan! Sentraaaaaa!

Awww, ::blushes::

God dammit, let me just have this? My real reaction has been one of stomach churning angst, because, realistically, it only takes a simple majority to yay/nay, so it's entirely probable this ends up a rioting shitshow.

Fuck. As if the next few months weren't gonna be unbearable enough.

Passing the time since I can't afford XCOM2 yet playing Enemy Within and Xenonauts. Just finished the attack on the XCOM base, which ended up unnecessarily stressful. I had just finished a newby training mission, so all my squaddies were hogging the advanced weaponry and armor, so I had a single colonel assailt

I remember it as the only movie to come close to showing how frighteningly destructive the A-10 is in real life, and… Nope. That's it.

If we're mashing Titanics up with time machines, I'm going to have to insist we include a Kylie Minogue in there, too.

I don't think you could have written the trip worse than it happened in real life. You'd get called out for bullshitting your audience. From all the factors already mentioned, to the radio backlog, even the freaking weather that year broke more ice off the arctic shelf than normal.

Hell, with a moderately powerful spotlight, and actually giving the lookout goddamned binoculars instead of firing the guy with the key to the locker they were in the day before sailing, there's no reason the FIRST damn one should have hit that 'berg.

And the rumors this is going to happen have been around since that fucking movie came out. If this sucker ever gets built, (ironically the ship named "Titanic" is far too small to be seen as profitable by today's standards) I'll eat my hat.

Primarily, most cruise goers are going to be disappointed in the poor little thing. 882ft long is tiny compared to the island hopping monstrosities the main operators are sailing.

On a technical side, I like not being chained to pixels, though the limits of optics systems nowadays are far more severe than pixel-count, and so long as you have optical zoom over digital zoom, detail isn't lost.

A friend of mine got her PhD. Last name: Love. Pretty much everyone demanded when she did get married that she keep her name.

Oh what the ever-loving monkeyfuck…

I'm always afraid I'll come off as "Well, I don't even OWN a TV", that and my wife reminded me the Vintage Camera Collection thing wasn't from The Onion… It was Ted Mosby… The ur-Douche.

Growing up listening to baby boomers creepily moon over "The One That Got Away (tm)" really put me on to that mindset. The ones that ended, ended for a reason, and while none were straight up disasters, the point stands. If they were going to work, we probably would have found a way to make them work.

1) The holiday is weirdly both extremely and not at all important to my marriage. Extremely because it's the day my wife and I got over our petrified fear of rejection and dropped all the half-joking innuendoes and flirtations and outright admitted to one another we were into each other. Not at all, because it happens
