That's what we do though..

Yea, you can say every show it that, but they used to do it with a bit more of a story, not just 30 minutes of CGI with people flying thru buildings.

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

@Sapphireho first meetup hosted by myself and Bryan/Nic was quite successful. About 20 of us total including the few that left toward the middle and few who arrived later, and then about half the group (11 I think) ended up doing a cruise to In N Out near the airport.

Wish ya could've made it!

Yeah same is true with games. You can play games that look so real you might as well go outside, or you can play games that are fun and capture the imagination...

plenty don't follow that formula at all. you've just got to go below the surface.

you should read the X-Men Age of Apocalypse series. X-Men and related sotries is about all I read these days so outside of that I'm not much help. perhaps the Dark Knight series of Batman. I donno.

Me too. I was looking a 5000 carpet samples that all look pretty much the same. I'm like, "I don't give a shit woman, just pick one", on the inside. It came out more like, "whichever one you like best Sweetheart."


Glad it went well!


Edit: And I'm still not getting notifications from you? Others seem fine. Did I click something I shouldn't have?

No idea, I've noticed it a few times on my end as well, so I suspect it's a forum issue.

Thanks though!

My wife just texted to tell me she bought RDRII!

I hate that chit. she's trying to get you to guess what she wants so if later on there's something wrong with it then it's your fault and if not she still gets what she wants.

My GF plays this game with dinner all the time.

I have played that dinner game with various women for 45 years. It will never change.

You might like some of the Netflix/Marvel superhero shows. Jessica Jones season 1 is my favorite.
