My wife and I picked up a very nice ice cream maker for the sole and singular purpose of making Jeni's ice creams from her book.

Holy balls. If you ever get the chance and/or inclination, make up (or buy) the maple and caramelized bacon ice cream. It is an alteration on the maple and caramelized peanut recipe (I have…

Knock yourself out, Chief. No, seriously: check.

Pompous ass.

Yeeeeah, I really have no interest in these Twitter-like additions to Xbox Live.

I'm more than a little surprised at the powerful reactions to this. I mean, yeah, that's a serious amount of blackhead, but it really isn't that "ZOMGWTFBBQSAUCE" gross that people are making it to be.

Why bother saying that? The overwhelming majority of countries create so many different variables that it simply is not worth the effort of going through literally every other countries' laws to see who is eligible.

Grumbles something about it not having anything to do with American laws and everything to do with the laws of other countries.

"U.S. only because other countries have stupid lottery/games of chance laws" is how I read it.

It has nothing to do with the game makers or even the United States and -everything- to do with -other- countries and their lottery/games of chance laws.

"No my argument is simple."

mmhmm

Isn't that Wiki for the original PC game and NOT the new version?

You don't seem to understand violence. Violence exists whether someone has good parents or not. You cannot parent brain chemistry.

You're not that bright, are you? Assault is certainly the domain of the police. A child can become violent with zero regard to parenting. Your dull-witted commentary leads me to believe you have zero higher education.

Guess what? Your wish is granted. There have been dozens of studies trying to connect violence with movies/games/music/media.

Conclusion? No connection.

You are mistaking personal observations with observational data. The two are not the same and your observations are wildly limited.

I'm not fan of the Kinect, but I must defend it.

The developers were limited by the number of devs they had. The modders outnumbered them by at least 10 fold, if not far more. That many more eyes and brains can easily see solutions to problems.

Dude, if it's your "job to know", then please, tell us EXACTLY what your job is and where you do it?

I think all of us have a feeling by this point that you are speaking directly from your ass, and I'm not even remotely interested in this thing.

So, their master plan with this commercial is to cater to the alpha male type who watches football, plays fantasy football and then rubs it in his opponent's/friend's face when he wins?

Seems like a poor strategy to me, but it's not my PR firm doing the marketing. I certainly would have steered Microsoft a different…

Considering you can't stop commenting, that means I've gotten under your skin. You're my puppet now. I own you. You'll keep coming back because it's what I want. If that isn't a beatdown, I don't know what one would be.

You. Beaten down.

Who said it would be a grammar beatdown? It's just going to be a straight up, run-of-the-mill beatdown, as I have done since you shoved your face into the conversation. I'll gladly go on for as long as you're stupid enough to continue commenting. Which, by the sound of things, seems to be until your dying breath.

It was part of one of the Collector's Editions of Fallout 3 . It also came with a sweet metal lunchbox.
