Only reason I did it was to say I had done it. Otherwise, nothing really amazing about a larger Big Mac. Their Angus burgers are actually pretty good. Now only if they would cook to order...

I've never seen a Big Mac that looks even close to that.

Dirty Bomb is stupid fun.

Can't wait for Witcher 3 to download, though.

Regained about 75% of range of motion compared to yesterday where I could barely get out of bed. Body still somewhat sore but time to go get swol again.

You really want a time waster, find MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) then got to MAMEDVDS and order all the roms for it.

If you were ever into real arcade games you can't beat it (real versions on your computer). I've spent $100s of dollars in virtual quarters playing Gauntlet.

Another item on the build list is building an arcade machine to play them all.

Here are some crazy shits they sell at McD's in Hong Kong.

But usually the locals buy a bunch of Happy Meals just to collect the toys and throw out the actual food cuz it's nasty.

Good job. Give it 2 weeks and you'll feel amazing every day. Stretching after your workout will help with the soreness

Edit: actually start stretching after your workouts every time. Just get in the habit now and it won't be a pain to pick up later. Especially your hamstrings and glutes if you plan on squatting in the future

There are a whole lot of locked threads in the new posts search. Someone must have been spamming.

I really miss going to the arcades. Loud AF and filled with smoke. Yet no $500 console machines or $5000 gaming rigs can replace the actual gameplay, especially the Sega deluxe motorized machines. Most kids these days don't know what they are missing.

Amen to that. I was a bit of a pinball wizard myself, but dropped lots of quarters into arcade machines of all types until they basically disappeared or became different versions of the same fighting game.

Never got into arcade games. I think it was a combo of being born in '91 and arcades having really dried up by then. Though, the cinema used to have a fairly decked out arcade and I spent a lot of money on DDR, Time Crisis (I think? The capcom shooting one, anyways), that motorcycle racing game where the bike is the controller and you actually lean and stuff, as well as that ubiquitous car racing game, Cruisin USA?

Chuck e cheese is a place I went to and I believe they are still frequently visited in our area.

Same, never got into arcades. Was poor growing up and never went out much. Now I enjoy a good pinball game though I suck.
