Deflector shields holding, Captain.

Damn, dude. These legitimately hurt.

That's disappointing. Not because I was planning to buy one, but it doesn't bode well for the industry for something this hyped to get its plug pulled (so to speak).

I'm guessing it wasn't Trump's aim for everyone to stop innovating except China.

I have long thought I should report Gabe, but I don't know who I would report him to. www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2007/0...

<3 I built a Cupcade to give my sister as a birthday present - still one of my finest gift-giving moments.

You're trapped in the last TV show you watched. Where are you?

I absolutely did.

That sound you hear is Canada's Strategic Smugness Reserve topping up again

Log text from World of Warcraft: Valeera Sanguinar has learned a new ability: [Blood Contract], Valeera Sanguinar has gained 3800 experience, Valeera Sanguinar has reached Level 3, Valeera Sanguinar cheers at you, Valeera Sanguinar says: I'll be more helpful now.

I'm sorry I yelled at you, Brann. Please come back. #WoW #WoWMidnight

The EX30 makes me sad - it seems like it could have been so much better. A little less power, a little more range, and real controls instead of an iPad on a stick, and it could have been a winner.

Okay, this is much less annoying than it was the last time around. It seems like the points regenerate more quickly and you don't need to spend as many of them to get places. I'll stop complaining.

I really want to want an EV, but...they're just not where I want them to be yet. Info is dropping now on the Subaru Uncharted, which is getting really close. The Rivian R3, if Rivian lives long enough to get it on the road, could be a winner.

My problem-that-isn't-really-a-problem: I feel like this is when I should be buying my midlife crisis car. I have a perfectly good 11-year-old GTI, but want a change-up. I also don't want anything ostentatious (BMWs are out, for instance).

A 400 hp AWD Celica could be just the ticket.

YES PLEASE

Well, that blows. (IMHO) I don't mind skyriding in itself, but it sucks for gathering. You're cruising along, see an ore node, go down and mine it, and ope I have to wait for my dragon points to refresh before I can go anywhere.

Guess I'm leveling my non-gatherer first.

I mean, it may be Crapopolis, but they have a dance club. #wow

A World of Warcraft zone map of "Crapopolis," a junky looking town with a quest marker in the center. The top key reads: World, Azeroth, The Maelstrom, Kezan, Crapopolis.

Wait. This game had a zone called "Crapopolis" and I'm just finding this out NOW? #wow

The only F1 race I've attended was the 2001 USGP in Indianapolis, right after 9/11. We were surrounded by frenzied Colombians cheering for Juan Pablo Montoya. Every time we stood up, they immediately jumped on our seats to cheer, but they were cool about moving when we wanted to sit back down. :)

jack hughes would be a good name for a prosecutor

What a time to be alive

Baldur's Gate 3 is on sale. See you at camp.

Triumph TR7! My aunt had one.

As an 18-20 year old, what I wanted was a Celica All-Trac Turbo. There's a rumor that Toyota are going to reintroduce an AWD Celica in the next couple of years with 400 horsepower...

With the exception of "being cool to look at," cars now are vastly better than cars of the 70s and 80s. Faster, more efficient, and MUCH safer.

I didn't like Beyond Burgers when I tried them a few years ago, but over the last few months I've tried several Impossible products and I think they're amazing. The meatballs, if cooked in meatball like ways (i.e., drowned in sauce) are on par with any other frozen meatball I've had.

I actually just resubbed a few days ago for the pre-expansion event. I did a few delves to level some alts, but didn't die in any (they were all T3s on pre-80 characters).

I did notice the tombstones in delves. I think that's new since I left.

I didn't.

Technically this is a gaming post

I like that the same day a guy was like “this place will never be Twitter” this thread gave us the most 2015 Twitter experience (complimentary) imaginable.

Do you have recommendations?
