1. Play XCOM-2

Some of my friends and I did this a few weeks ago and it was great. Aside from one of the employees, I was the only dude in the room (not entirely unexpected), which was amusing.

But wine + painting with an experienced artist guiding you and giving tips? Fantastic. Can’t wait to do it again. Even liked my painting well

That’s funny, the D&D game I GM has three women and one man. Maybe you just need to find a more diverse array of friends.

You forgot about the Aston Martin Vagrant (3 liter engine, actually just 1/4 of a V12 Vantage’s engine), Ferrari 103 (1.0 liter 3-cyl Ford Ecoboost with Ferrari badging), and BMW 715i.

Having played massive amounts of the Commander Keen games as a kid it’s pretty easy to see and hear the similarities in the engine—same floaty movement, same PC speaker sounds.

What a neat bit of nostalgia. Thanks for posting this.

Doug, you write funny things a lot, but this paragraph should go up on your wall of all-time-funniest-things:

I cannot get enough of my E36 M3’s S52. The sound it makes wide open at 7k RPM is glorious, especially with the top down.

Sure, it only put out 240hp new, but it’s still quite enough to thrill folks who ride along with me.

Unfortunately right now Spain thinks history belongs to them since they murdered and stole for it first. ;)

This is why if you find something like this, don’t tell anyone, get as much of it up as you can, sell it on the black market and/or donate parts of it anonymously to museums.

Ah, the Confederate Battle Flag, the flag that says, “I don’t hate black people, but I do love to remind everybody how the most important part of my entire cultural heritage was when my ancestors started a civil war in order to preserve the legal right to own, rape, murder, and abuse their ancestors.”

Yep. All tanks all the time for me in BF2/2142/3. Well, I did start enjoying infantry a bit more in 3, but whenever I could get access to a tank, I was a terror.

I feel the same way as you: love single-player FPS games, love online ones where I can be in a tank or similar vehicle (Titanfall was great!), not so into

In what universe is Carly Fiorina more moderate than Trump?

Less publicly racist, perhaps, but in the debates she’s taken on more hawkish warmongering positions than Trump has!

It doesn’t scrub anything, it simply makes it so the two of you cannot see each other or anything the other posts.

I’m reasonably sure your friends can still see things they posted on your wall and vice-versa, but neither of you will be able to see those posts at all.

Pictures that you posted that they appear in and are

I won’t tolerate bigotry and hatred toward people trying to escape with their lives.

Let’s face it, the only sane response is for as many Fallout 4 players as possible to download this mod and spam the MLB’s social media accounts with screenshots of virtual David Ortiz doing post-apocalyptic stuff.

I’m not entirely convinced the Washington Press Corps know what “friendship” is either, though.

Right—the proper reply however would be more of a “yes, but is it really a bad thing?”

I had to check because I forgot if I’d backed it or not... yep, I was suckered too.

Sigh.

Well, they wouldn’t. But it doesn’t mean they have to protest that he’s speaking there. It isn’t like the talks are mandatory to go to or anything.

If the College Republicans on your campus want to bring Ben Carson to hear him talk, why not? I think it’ll be good for them and other curious students to hear the crazy in

I was 5 years old, it would have been 1989, and some family friends/neighbors had an NES. I’m pretty sure one time that year they were on vacation and I broke into their house (key under the mat) and happily played Mario for a while.
