3 is on switch and I've almost bought it 5 or 6 times

3 was free on Epic Games Store a couple months back. Haven't played it cause I don't care for the 3D stuff. I want that isometric goodness.

In general learn good habits because bad habits are hard to break. For instance, anchoring your thumb on the back on the neck instead of sitting the neck in the bend of your thumb and index finger.

The concept is fun, but the trailer wasnt the best

Which might not be a big deal because the trailer for 2 wasnt really good either and I freaking loved that movie

From my experience most trailers are awful. Go watch some of your favorite comedies from the 80s/90s and you'll wonder how they were approved for release.

So Clerks 3 is about Randal making Clerks 1? I'm liking the concept so far.

had some nikes, but back then they were like $30-$50 instead of $100-$150 on average nowadays.

Same. The price nowadays is insane. Even when you get them on sale they'll run you $70-$80.

Bought Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 and 2 with all the expansion packs on Steam yesterday for $4! My 12 year self would be shitting himself right now.

Old and overpriced?

Must be nice, I remember at my old house in my front room I was using rollers to paint. Didnt want to take the time to tape off and use a paint brush on the corners and stuff. So about three inches from my ceiling there was just a line with some paint on the ceiling where I just bumped the roller against the ceiling. Looked like complete shit when I got done. Havent painted since lmao

Yeah the prep part taping everything off sucks but it's the secret behind a good paint job. Spend the time doing all the prep and the painting will go by quickly.

Talib_21 posted...

Oh fuck the driving wouldnt bother me, I hate painting so much. After about ten minutes I just want to say fuck it and quit.

Oh when I was in college, I worked at a factory as the maintenance dept's bitch boy. Most of the job was me painting things like I spent all summer painting all 40 doors that lead to the outside. I've been a pro ever since. lol

Talib_21 posted...

Well fuck, sounds like your stuck painting tomorrow then lol

The painting isn't the issue. I'm pretty good at taping stuff off and painting like a semi-pro. It's the 5 hours of driving that's the killer for me. Can't drive that long without my back and neck killing me.

Dont you have kids? Just give them a couple cans of spray paint and let them go to town

My 13 year old BIL lives with us. We don't have any actual kids cause we're too busy collecting dogs.
Also my BIL is the type where if I gave him a can of spray paint, he'd waste 10 minutes of my time asking how to use it then when he would finally go to use it, he'd accidentally spray himself in the face.

I like your train of thought i'm just tryin to muster the energy to drive half a mile to get more beer.

That's my problem. I ran out of liquor a couple days ago and don't have the energy to go out into public. Probably for the best since I have to get up in the morning and drive 2 1/2 hours to my MIL's to paint.

LightHawKnight posted...

? Fatigue? You can run around indefinately. If you are talking about running out of stamina in the mines, bring food.

No I mean the energy bar. If it runs out, you start walking very slowly. It drains doing anything including just running around the town so it feels like you're rushed to barely get one thing done each day. I didn't have any money for food to replenish the energy bar cause I spent my money on seeds. Keep in mind, this was the first week of the game so it might just be like that at first.

THQ??

Oh my god that game is gonna be legendary.

It's not the THQ you're thinking of. It's the parent company that happens to own the rights to the name THQ. The real THQ declared bankruptcy and sold off all it's IPs and name back in 2012.

Philip027 posted...

And the game does have a fatigue system and missable timed events, from what I understand.

This was my issue. There would be 1-2 things I wanted to get done each day along with some light exploring of the town and the fatigue system said nope, I'm going to have you burn out around dinner time. Make me feel very rushed like I couldn't just explore and enjoy things are my own pace. I'm assuming I can eventually upgrade that to have more stamina.

Good to know nothing is missable and I shouldn't worry about getting a ton of things done each day. Might give the game another try now.

It's based off the channel or if it's age-restricted. You cannot embed any age restricted videos anymore. Probably ties into ad revenue in some shape or form which is why some copyrighted stuff won't let you do it.

Age restriction makes sense.

I dunno how much it happens in murrica but with ce links specifically I always get "uploaded has not made this available in your country" bs

We don't have that issue cause the Internet was made in America.

They really did.
Some videos only let you watch from Youtube directly. Not sure why it matters.

I remember this topic from a couple months ago.

I dont get the napkins part but everything else is what I experienced

Most of the food you get from food trucks are either messy, you eat with your hands, or both. Food trucks love to give you a massive stack of napkins and while you're busy trying to find an extra hand to grab them while maintaining grip on your food and drink, the wind carries the napkins away.

I'd still be drinking a lot of beer though because I love beer.

Seriously though, I wanna know how much that is. Imagine pouring a 60oz into there. It would barely make a little puddle at the bottom.

I curious too. I can knock out a 1.75L in 3-4 days. I'm not a beer drinker despite living in a big beer city. I just can't get a taste for it.

DarkRoast posted...

I don't know how it manages to maintain both an incredibly silly attitude while also having a surprisingly heartfelt story

The other 7 games are like this but beat 'em up gameplay. It's wonderful. The juxtaposition is alway the best part of the series.

Actually maybe not..

a-c-a-b posted...

Goddamn. It'd take me like 10 years to drink that even with drinking the way I do.

Does it say how many liters or gallons it is?

Shit, Now I wonder if I'm the biggest drunk in the this general....
I can probably knock that out 6 months max.

WaterLink posted...

Lol have fun. Today actually marks my 3rd consecutive week without alcohol. And 2 weeks without weed. >_>

Congrats man. I've been cutting back a lot recently myself. Currently hovering around 2-3 days of drinking then 7 days sober.

She said it really hurts. I was trying to Google what could cause it and I saw something called pcos that can cause menstrual pain, but I dont know enough about her symptoms or like, female problems to know if thats what it is.

I cant go to her mom with it cuz shes being raised by her dad, but I could tell her (our) aunt and maybe she could take her to a doc.

Yeah PCOS can cause really bad pains like that. My wife has it and like someone else mentioned the pain can get so bad you're near bed ridden for a couple days. Can't really do much about PCOS.

The Wii/PS3/X360 gen recently became retro. Most games are still bargain bin cheap but prices are starting to rise like older games.

I generally hang around habanero/ghost pepper level with most meals.

Actually they've been doing sales like this fairly often the past few years, usually at 30-40% off.

Hmm. That's better than I thought. Still not the same level as general industry sales.

Was going to come in and joke about $2 off first party titles but looks like they are $18 off. It's not great but much better then they've done in the past.

@Johnny_Nutcase how does it compare to Do America?

I haven't done anything besides wipe the box down and open up the system.

No you said you like to restore game systems as a hobby. Curious what all you normally do to restore them.

ZMythos posted...

The manuals seem to add a lot to the value of the box set. Also it looks like that SNES has a component output, which I believe is an aftermarket inclusion. An original SNES has RF to Coax adapter and cables.

Those little inserts and posters are what'll bump up the value the most. Apparently it was normal for people to throw that stuff away for whatever reason.

The SNES can output up to s-video natively. It can output component but requires a mod. Not sure what cables came in the box originally since I didn't have one growing up. I did buy a Japanese SNES(Super Famicom last year). It came with a composite cable but I bought an official Nintendo s-video cable to use with it.

ZMythos posted...

Yea, I don't intend on selling it after I restore it. I like collecting and preserving gaming stuff from my childhood.

How far into the restoring process? Do you open up the system to clean inside and replace the capacitors?

$600 seems incredible high considering the box is the only unique thing about the set. It's literally a standard SNES and DKC in the same box. Your manual and inserts look great.

Actually just found this on ebay. Same item but much less yellowing, additional controller, and 3 additional games. For $240.

No one I knew made more than $40,000ish/year in an office job unless they were the manager or someone highly skilled

I don't understand how. My very first IT job at 21 was entry level and I made $45k.

In regards to your OP, yeah some office environments are how you described but so many aren't and most aren't all of those things. Also if you're doing boring repetitive work all day then your office job requires no skill and is no better than a retail job imo. Of course it's going to be awful.

I think Q is the only person I know that uses the Netflix DVD mail service.

Do they offer blu ray at all or is it still just DVD? It's been a long time since I had that.

I kinda miss that process. My dad has been a Netflix subscriber since like 01 or 02 when they first introduced the unlimited DVD rentals model. I'd dig deep into the DVD catalog finding all sorts of things I didn't know existed like live concerts from bands I loved.

Great job ending it right then and there TC. Dating is all about casting a wide net and tossing back the rotten fish. There are a lot of shitty people in this world. Just keep going through them and you'll eventually find a good one.
