This is something I came to learn is a thing when I used to work at GameStop. And when I started doing it, I started doing it with everything I bought new that was packaged. It’s kinda interesting to find some things that just smell absolutely terrible out of the package, a weird sort of chemical packaging smell.

Most

Second the bidet, honestly best 30 bucks I’ve ever spent.  I also use about a third of the paper I normally would, because mostly I’m just drying at that point.

Ahem.

Personal Massager.

I’ve got the GCU from Best Buy for about 10 more months, after that... Yeah, there is pretty much no reason to pre-order anything, even if there is barely anything available now.

Games are starting to do what BioWare and EA are trying to do.  Live service style games that offer something in the way of story or content

At this point, I’ve just taken to watching Smoove or someone else since 2k seems to dump almost unlimited amounts of VC on them to promote their game.

It’s basically the most painless way to experience the game, and if the best way to experience your game is not playing your game... you are doing something wrong.

Picked up my copy on my lunch break and have been staring longingly at the door to my office for five hours.

“And the King will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

I’ve got four hours to go.  You aren’t making this very easy.

Yeah, I take it as someone who is used to how his interactions with his mother play out, and how society has informed us we ‘have to’ act with our family.

Good on her.

Yep.  Same here.  Nissan actually offered me a better financing deal if I went with them (and have been great since Hurricane Harvey), but USAA was super helpful to start the process.

You’ve got my permission for a shameless plug, if you got anything.

Eh, normal time-management stuff; I guess. Do you react to calls for help, go patrolling, or do you make your way out to your 9-5? Do you take the moral low-ground when no one would know any different to make sure that your refrigerator isn’t empty so you can spend more time crime-fighting, or do the ‘goody two-shoes’

One of my favorite moments was when GameStop set up the game to be played during the (I think) movie release at midnight. I got a chance to play right as a news station came in, and apparently did well enough with it that they told me to keep playing while they got footage. They took forever, but I got to play for

I think a game about being a superhero, but having to pay rent/maintain relationships would be awesome. Throw in some moral choices (like do you return both bags of stolen money?) and baby, you’ve got a stew going.

Ok, but...  Where’s the lie?

You played Tetris.

Before or after use?

Good eye.

Deployed sometime around 2008, I was waiting for a convoy to pick me up in the transition tent. I was opening up an MRE, when the siren starting going off (rocket attack in Basra). Jumped up, ran outside to the bunker... hated life for the hour I was stuck in the bunker and when the all-clear was given. I went back

Damn it.
