Having not played since Sapphire, but as someone who still finds the world interesting, would you care to elaborate on the X/Y dialogue change?

I’ve never heard of anyone “losing” their copyright by not enforcing it. Nor have I ever heard of an easement (the term for taking parts of real property) on a piece of copyrighted material. Copyright is really really really strict and, while it often is not worth it to enforce, is very easy to win on if you can prove…

5 ilvl PLUS being able to beat Mythic. The latter means skill with both class and mechanics. That plus the extra stats may mean a drastic increase in dps (exact numbers I don't know—I play a tank and actually got rid of recount/skada because the fighting over numbers bored me).

I understand not having your previous people, but there are others! It's like moving to a new city. Making new friends is hard, but I promise you we're as nice as your old ones; just different.

The HUD in WoW is also completely customizable (not by default, but via addons. A flaw, yes, but not one that makes it unplayable for people willing to work the system). Both your and Gaello's UI's look almost identical to my WoW UI. There very well may be other reasons to prefer FFXIV (didn't actually know there was…

To preempt anyone trying anything sneaky: the cops will find it. They always find everything. And what you think of as "the Fourth Amendment" really doesn't prevent them from finding everything. There are always loopholes and exceptions. Your drugs or other contraband will be found.

Yeah, I always assumed it was pain. I pictured Jim Carrey in The Mask trying to rip it off and sweating and struggling for breath after.

Ok, that's great and I'd be ok with it. But there's always a risk of perception when there's a package deal and you only want a few parts of it. Especially for something as compartmentalizable as Blizz games, compared to Netflix. It seems odd for me to say that I want to watch X, Y, and Z shows, but nothing else, and…

They definitely should have a stand-alone Overwatch subscription option, though, and for the other games as well. I might like a WoW/Overwatch combo, but if I'm paying a subscription to get stuff in Diablo or Hearthstone, I'm just wasting my money. I'd rather pay $15/mo for WoW and $10/mo for Overwatch than $30 for a…

When I was bartending for a summer (complete failure overall) I had a guy ask for a perfect manhattan. I was floored at first because that was the first time in two months that anyone had ordered anything other than beer, but after my initial shock I apologized to the man because we didn't have the materials to make…

It comes in bags, rather than cartons or jugs. Not everywhere throughout Canada, and many places do still have cartons or jugs, but big plastic bags is an option.

Not at an A&W. Another former worker here. Both root beers and the floats are served in identical mugs, which are chilled (so no ice). If you have a to-go paper cup, there's still no ice. As far as the menu is concerned, there is absolutely no difference whatsoever between a medium root beer and a medium float with no…

I play WoW but not Warcraft, and as I understand it there is a constant lore and history through the games. The Warcraft games just happen to take place well before WoW does.

I don't play destiny, but the first half of this article especially seems to be running on an assumption that, from my experience, is not true of other MMORPGs (WoW in particular).

I agree absolutely for anyone in front of a camera or talking to people. It's the technicians, as someone else noted below, that are a bit more questionable. In your example, while one would expect the waiters to be in black tie, I would not expect the chefs to be.

Couldn't you make it even easier and just do an actual swap? Like Couple A sends Child A over to Couple B's house for a sleepover, allowing Couple A to go on a date; and then Couple B sends Child B over to Couple A's house for a sleepover a week later, allowing Couple B to go on a date. I mean, I guess the couple…

At least so far scrolling down, all of them have.

I can't think of specifics right now, but I have seen this happen on a couple occasions, and it has been wonderful. An apology of: "I meant it as a joke, but I see that it was in poor taste. I am terribly sorry for offending people, and I will not do it again." Perfect—it gives the reason, a recognition that the…

I'm jealous of your $30 wedding. My license at the courthouse cost $100. That's just extortion.

Because judges always, especially if the opposing party has no issue, grant leaves and extensions. Always. If asking for a leave was a huge thing that no one ever did, I might have a bit less sympathy here, but it's not. Extensions are granted as a matter of course, and the fact that this judge didn't is wrong (if not…
