I've been managing a tequila bar for 3 years. Finally, I can talk.

Dump Patron and Espolon down the toilet, it sucks. Lunazul, Hornitos, Milagro or Don Julio (for a bit more) will taste infinitely better.

All celebrity tequila is very, very bad and if you knew the business practices you'd be terrified. Subsidizing failing agaze farms and lionizing their after-tax free labor? It's not just Starbucks.

El Tesoro is a fantastic line to get into that is slightly expensive, but some of the most authentic stuff you can buy.

Lastly, 1942 rules. Clase Azul is trash. Change my mind.

You're right. Clase Azul is overpriced shit. You're paying for the bottle and not the tequila inside. It's overly sweet and has no substance.

Don't know how true this is... but a rep I used to know who knew his shit about agave suspected that the bottles weren't even made in Mexico any more.

Good.

Forteleza, Calle 23, Don Fulano were my favourites.

Basically stay the fuck away from any tequila that is "Mixto", Diffuser or any brands that add additives.

Diffuser is where they use chemicals to strip the agave and I believe it is cost efficient and quicker than traditional methods but it fucks the flavour.

And any tequila that uses additives to artificially sweeten is horrible to. The big one is Casamigos. Sweetened as all hell to appeal to the masses.

I haven't tried Don Julio 1942 in a long time but last time I tried their Blanco it was horrible. For me personally, you need to have good a Blanco to have good Reposados and Anejos.

The madlads have actually gone and done it

Meltdowns everywhere as far as the eye can see.

The one that doesn't exist on this poll but should.

Hurts alot if I sit up from lying down. I can hear the rib audibly pop and crack and feel it too.
Has anyone experienced an injured rib?

Killing is my business is arguably probably the best old school thrash metal album of all time.

Just that raw, aggressive, kick your ass sounding thrash metal with speed and intensity.

Game sucks ass.

There's a reason capcom and fans want to forget it ever happened.

Honestly what is this shit?

In the original she was perfect. You pressed x or whatever it was to make her wait somewhere and you put her in the corner out of the way.

This new system is trash. Every encounter where she's involved turns into an absolute mess.

It doesn't help that enemies are legit way tankier, aggressive and harder in the remake.

I cant stand seafood unless it's plain ol' fish or crumbed calamari.

I think the texture of crab turned me off. Having to crack the bones and slurp the meat from the shell always weirded me out. I remember it being salty as fuck too.

I decided to quit because I'm sick of spending $80 a week on coffee.

The first day was atrocious. Like a dumbass I decided to quit cold turkey instead of gradually ease off it.
I was fine until 10am and it hit me hard. Cold waves of nausea running through my body, feeling delirious, unable to concentrate, head pounding like it's never pounded before, feeling like I wanted to vomit. I ended up having to go home from work early. I pretty much slept 12pm all the way through to 6am the next morning in pain.

Fuck caffeine. I hate that it's too socially acceptable to be addicted to caffeine.

I think it was OK.

The horror elements were way more intense in OG. Getting knocked out of the boat and having to swim back while it chased you was intense. Wish they could've included some actual swimming mechanics to include that.

I like the area more in the remake. There's something gorgeous about the pink afternoon sky over the murky lake that gets me good. The music is really camp in the remake too.

Holy shit lmao.
The infamous village segment is waaay harder than the original.

A shotgun blast won't stun the chainsaw guy, there's way more enemies, it seems you no longer have iframes when vaulting over stuff.

I only just scrapped by but I have no bullets or healing left :(

Fuck it I'm going in on hardcore.
Decided I'm not going to be a pansy ass little puncy bitch. I'm probably going to get bodied.

Standard is perfectly fine. If youre that bad at aiming there is an aim assist option too.

I'll probably use the gyro feature.

I've heard hardcore is too hard and even standard mode is too hard for alot of people.

Scream was the first movie I recall as a kid that genuinely scared me and gave me nightmares.

I found the ghostface mask terrifying and I was so young I didn't even understand it was just a person under the mask. I think I must've been 4 or 5.

Naughty Dog would rather keep reharshing the Last of Us.

They even had a Jak 4 planned at some point about 10 years ago but shelved it to make more "serious" games.

They really should get the boys back together and make Jak 4.

Crash 4 isn't even that hard.

Just a bunch of whingey ass little punces that need to git gud.

All levels and platforming challenges were designed really well.

Sucked a big chode at it but it's a good, fun time. I pretty much pretended in my head that I was Nathan Drake.

The activity lures into a false of security. The first wall is a piece of piss to climb and it all seems easy but then you try a slightly harder one and your arms are jelly at that point and it all falls into shambles.

I reckon I'll keep at it.

That Buffy game

Aren't you apparently alive for all eternity in the sarlac pit if it eats you?

What do you even do in there for all eternity? Sounds boring after awhile. Surely there's a way to escape.

I wanted to really like it and it is legit for the first 10 or so hours but eventually devolves into a generic ubisoft-esqe, generic, repetitive open world check list game.

I feel like they should have ditched the open world aspect and put all the attention into hogwarts, hogsmeade and the forbidden forest.

Very disappointing.

It's just a douchey, complete fuckwit thing to say if someone is struggling with something in a game.

It's a phase I've only really noticed pop up in the last few months.

I'm hearing mixed things.

I think I want to go into it completely blind

I'm a fan of Bruz honestly.
Highly underrated.

And it was a badass movie but...

Chad surviving that was absolutely bullshit and brought the movie down a point for me.

Too many fake out deaths. Gale, Mindy, Chad all magically survived. I wouldve been fine with Gale and Mindy surviving but Chad should have kicked the bucket.

I watched the first episode of their Netflix show and knew immediately it was not for me.

It takes time. I thought the same and now I realise I was a fucking idiot

I used to think they they were pure shite but then I watched this and they immediately became funny to me and everything clicked.
Now they're my favourite modern comedy group

Watching for the first time. Up to the end of season 3.

Don't know why it took me this long to watch it.

I don't know about anyone else, but as someone who went to an Australian high school in some dropkick, rural heap of shit town.. this happened pretty much every day in some class or another. (Besides the end obviously)

One of the most authentic things I've ever seen

The combat (especially on hard) to me is just chefs kiss. Fast paced, satisfying, element of strategy, skill based, it controls well once you used to Frey's movements, I think the world is nice to look at and clear out all the areas.

Its definitely no masterpiece. But people are absolutely cooked when saying this is irredeemable shite.
And there's nothing woke about it. This is one of the few games I've played recently that I feel has no political agenda at all.

There's no planet where this doesn't end up being a "disappointment" due to the unrealistic hype.

I'm sure it's going to be a great game especially for Harry Potter fans but I don't see this being the game of the generation that alot of people are making it out to be. Although I'd love to be wrong

Where you just max out your resources and can't pick up the hundreds of shit lying around the world?

I got weird ocd when it comes to this and not being able to pick up a herb because I've already got 99 of them triggers me something fierce. Just let me pick more of them up.

It's worse when the game doesn't let you at least sell that shit so I can start collecting again.

This is why Breath of the Wild is for me. Weapon, Shield and Bow limit are absolutely horrendous but at least it lets me pick up shit loads of fruit and all sorts of things.

They're my favourite villains. One moment I love their on-screen presence and the next I want nothing more to see them tortured in revenge.

The ones that come to my mind is Ramsay Bolton from GoT and Mick Taylor from Wolf Creek.

To this day as an adult... it still pisses me off that people like my dad and uncle would criticise how I'm wasting my times playing video games, force me to get off it, and then sit there for 6 hours during the day watching cricket.
Fucking cricket.

Three oh niiieeiine

Something about this song one day will hit meme status. Mark my words.

It takes me ages to reply sometimes (days or even weeks) because I'm insanely introverted, somewhat reclusive and i usually really just don't have that much to say.

Sarsaparilla shits all over root beer.

Astros playroom is honestly the best exclusive so far. Best pack in game I've ever played.
Demons souls is s tier in terms of being a faithful remake. But deep down its still just a ps3 game.
Haven't actually played ratchet and clank but it's probably decent.

Coming from someone1 who has had a PS5 since day 1 and actually loves the console, the main appeal of owning one right now isn't so much it's exclusive games (which isn't that big of a list right now) but with how games in general run so much better on the PS5 than they do on the aging PS4/PS4 pro in comparison.

Obviously something like this isn't going to be a big deal for someone who is already a PC gamer since a properly set up PC is going to run majority of the current games better than any newer console can (in this situation it actually would be great to wait for a decent actual game exclusives list), but for someone who mainly sticks to console gaming the PS5 has been pretty great.

Anyway, actual exclusive games that I liked/can vouch for is demon's souls, ratchet and clank rift apart, and returnal. I am also really looking forward to stellar blade.

What you want to do is just get native PS5 versions of whatever game you can think of and actually try it if its something you already liked on the PS4. Final fantasy 7 remake is the best example of a game that runs so much better on the PS5 that it actually makes playing through it again fun compared to it's original PS4 version.

This is also true. If you don't have a PS4 than PS5 is a no brainer. It runs everything from Ps4 pretty much buttery smooth. From what I've tested anyway.
And now that the shortage is finally over PS4 releases will finally be phased out.

I think literally only Demon's Souls remake and Ratchet and Clank are the 2 worthwhile actual PS5 exclusives.
The rest are on PC or PS4

Looks absolutely cold as fuck.

I hope they don't shy away from disturbing content.
