I was in Warsaw and I thought I'd start to drive back down to Bloomington at 8:30ish to maybe catch Atomic Age Cinema at midnight (should work). When I got about 30 miles from Bloomington, I discovered that 37 was closed due to flooding, so I called home (I don't have a map in my car because it was taken from me...by map thieves!), and my dad suggested I backtrack a bit and try 144, which I soon discovered was also closed. So I drove back to Indy (it was approaching 12:30am at this point) to take 465 East to 65 south and hopefully take 46 W to Bloomington as per my dad's advice. The exit for 46W was closed when I got there, so I went ahead to 58W and took that, figuring that since it was just a few miles south and going in the same cardinal direction, it'd be nearly as good. Unfortunately 58W actually goes SW and runs through every bumfuck town and winds around so much that it's hard to ever go faster than 35 MPH, especially at 1:15am. By this time I was completely out of Sprint's coverage area, so I was pretty much on my own, and with the gas light on, I was starting to get a little worried. After what seemed like an eternity I eventually got to a town called Freetown, and there found 135N with a sign that said it'd go to Nashville after 20some miles. I went for it and at about 2:15am I pulled into a gas station in Nashville. I put a few dollars worth of gas in the car and headed West to Bloomington and made it and I got home about a little after 3am and I missed my movie and drove about 120 miles out of the way.
That is mighty impressive. And Adam, all I can say is wow. I'm quite glad I live on the north side of Indy where there is next to no chance of flooding.
When I was watching cnn, msnbc, and the weather channel on Saturday afternoon they kept talking about how areas of Indiana were flooding and some people had to be rescued from their homes by scuba divers.
I did not know which areas they were talking about.
This is one of those times when I agree with Roscoe.
Taking pictures of a concert is, I think, approximately the same as making an audio recording of a mime: an indication that you are fundamentally confused about what you just experienced.
I finally got around to picking up Brawl this weekend. To keep it short, I like this game. It is a wii game that doesn't ram the motion detection up your ass until you realize you aren't really into anal penetration. The unlocking of characters, while frustrating that they aren't available early one, isn't that painful because most of them as far as I can tell just unlock due to normal play. I can't complain because Ness was unlocked like 5 games in, so all is good in my world.
Also, Sonic is an evil, evil rodent that belongs in the same pit of hell as pikachu. Suffice it to say, I am having problems unlocking him.
Oh, I've unlocked him (not sure how, I haven't reached any of the "known" methods to do so), but I have to beat him now. And he slaps me around like a little bitch.
I think that the mark of a good level is that players fight one another rather than having to fight the level.
On the Cube version the Ice Climber Level and the Mother Brain level can go fuck themselves. Also there were a few others that involved players having to move between platforms as the camera moved.
I'm not playing a damned platformer; I don't want to play a damned platformer. I want to beat people up using pikachu.
Any level that detracts from that goal misses the point of "smash brothers".
If that is the case, you would like the Solid Snake level. There is very little fighting the level in that case.
The Ice climbers level does suck, and my least favorite is exactly as you were saying, a level with platforming where you basically spend the whole time trying not to die from the level scrolling up under you. On this, you and I agree completely, fuck those levels.
The moving levels are where the real tests of player skill are...
not for me, but for the serious hardcore. They learn to use the level to screw over their opponents, and learn to triple jump air-dodge to save themselves from certain death, etc.
They're neat to watch, but not for me, not remotely. Though, I approve of the ones that move in a circuitous path, not a simple rise and fall.
calling B.S. on that, and referring you to the question of Fighting the Level versus Fighting an Opponent, as well as the frustration of defeating Sonic.
Equally, I question your ability to weigh in on this matter, considering your lack of experience with Brawl.
One of the things I hate about this job is that my boss will ask me to take the things in my brain related to project X and put them into a Word document so that sometime in the future someone else can do it.
The problem is that the particulars of Project X require users to know a plethora of other information which is not necessarily immediately involved in Project X. So I never know what all to write.
Note that there is only a Brand, and not a product entitled Smash Bros, thus removing from consideration a specific game. Further note the context of the discussion, and it's focus upon Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Would hashed potatos absorb the flavor and juice from the kabob?
Also, if the hashed potatos were fried (which seems to be one of the defining factors) then that would not work as 1) Frying would prevent flavor absorption 2) Frying would detract from the health appeal of the food
The idea of a bed is to provide a catch-all for the dripoff of the main dish. So the bed of rice catches the blood and juices from the kabob rather than have them pool on the plate.
Mashed potatos would serve as a bed, of sorts, in that the juices would be stuck on the mashed potatos and could be mixed in.
Hashed? Perhaps if they were raw...but I do not think hashed potatos have the consitency necessary.
Also, note that discussion of potatos is purely speculative.
I think kabobs on a bed of mashed potatoes sounds awesome. I like just about any meat or vegetable mixed into my mashed potatoes so I may be in the minority here.
@Kyle: Your love of KFC famous bowls made me think about using potatos. The sight of a KFC famous bowl is what made me resolve to never attempt this in reality. The only thing I want mixed in with mashed potatoes is garlic.
It did not dethrone Jurassic Park as the best RiffTrax, but it is acceptable. It is a little slow to get going but has enough LOL moments to make it worth the $4.
"He only wants to pass because you told him he couldn't."
Someone at work came to me with an online store problem and I fixed it for him. He asked, "What are we going to do when you leave?"

They are both sausages, so.. neither. Cousins, at best.
Assuming the classic dog is a Frankfurter, the brat is a Bratwurst, etc.
Brats generally use the same specific spices.. plus.. beer or cheese..
Actually.. Rick had gotten a hold of those spices in a mix, for homemade bratwurst, and ended up making some amazing "burgers" out of them, mixing the spices in with 2/3 ground beef, 1/3 ground pork... and drizzling crap beer over it after it starts to firm up.
If I did, I would have cast it to impeach Polk. What with his gaining control of the pacific northwest and winning the mexican american war. What a jerk.
We now have full confirmation of the upcoming panel at Comic-Con in San Diego, Friday, July 25, 7:15 p.m.
On the panel will be: Trace Beaulieu, Paul Chaplin, Frank Conniff, Bill Corbett, Joel Hodgson, Jim Mallon, Kevin Murphy, Bridget Nelson, Mike Nelson, Mary Jo Pehl and J. Elvis Weinstein. Wow.
Nippon Ichi knows their audience. It's like they asked - "How much more complex, absurd, unnecessary, and over-the-top humorous can we possibly get? ....Let's shoot for twice that."
I didn't know it was possible, but Nippon Ichi is the only man capable of making a game that is too complex for me. Unfortunately, I also am not obsessed with anime to let that draw me in. I tried with Ichi, and I will probably try again when I get the urge, but man do his games overwhelm me.
Sure, but in how many games have you actually completed everything, ever? You enjoyed Diablo II but never completed everything. You played WoW for a while but never completed everything. You played Guitar Hero and never completed Expert.
You can focus on specific parts of Disgaea to complete without having to complete the entire thing. It's not terribly difficult to follow the storyline to end or pick a few other features to complete.
Sure, if you try to complete everything in Diagaea you'll fail. But I don't think "complete everything" is necessarily your brand of completionist given your performance in Diablo II, WoW, Neverwinter Nights, Guitar Hero, Final Fantasy Tactics, etc.
You shouldn't have brought Final Fantasy Tactics into the discussion, as that is one game where I have completed everything.
My problem is that I want to finish every one of these games, but by the same standard I want to complete everything I can. Some games I have done this, FF6, FF7, Suikoden 1, Suikoden 2, FF9, FFT, FM4, etc. Many I have failed FF12 being the sorest in my mind at this point in time (I got so caught up doing all of the hunts that I lost interest in the story and never finished it with well over 100 hours playtime in).
WoW and D2 are games in which it is basically impossible to complete everything. I have completed enough of both to feel I have succeeded in doing so. In D2, I have beaten the game in all acts and tried out every skill of every class. In WoW, I have played every class to at least level 20, and got two to 70, partaken in every BG, and did some raiding. Sure completion could require getting the best possible gear in each situation, but in these games that is a near impossibility to have the best possible gear. So, I don't set that benchmark exceptionally high.
In a Nippon Ichi game, my definition of complete would be to have every class unlocked, and every abillity for those classes available. And frankly, to do so is overwhelming.
"In a Nippon Ichi game, my definition of complete would be to have every class unlocked, and every abillity for those classes available. And frankly, to do so is overwhelming."
I wonder how long it would take to do this in Disgaea...
I'm going to guess it'd take a long time. I don't have all the skills ( that I know of), but that wasn't exactly on my to-do list.
Story characters and monsters(?) get specific skills at specific character levels, but the other humanoid characters (?) learn skills based on their weapon skill level, which goes up with use of a weapon, and although you can put things on weapons that increase the rate at which people master their weapons, it still takes a lot of use to get a weapon to the point where you have all the skills from it. It can get really easy and only a matter of minutes to get a character from lvl 1 to lvl 100, but it still takes a lot of time to get a weapon mastery from 0 to 30.
Side note: I work in a crazy place. There are currently chair races taking place in the hallway. I was told to vacate the hallway to make room for the chair races.
And by "fell off" i mean that literally. Driving to work, halfway there, loud scraping sound starts following me...
So I think to myself, "Self? What to do?"
Test the brakes, I can still stop. So there's no worry there. Then I wonder if maybe it's something near the fuel tank so a spark will cause the car to explode and realize that, you know what, I've had a good run. And I really don't want to stop.
So I keep driving to work, get out of the car, and look in the back to see that the muffler is laying on the ground and, for some reason, most of the end pipe has worn off...as if by friction.
Yeah, the village wasn't great. Unbreakable and the Sixth Sense, however, are awesome. It might just be that any movie containing Bruce Willis makes everything about it better. I don't know, but those are great films
What an odd music video.

ReplyDeleteI was in Warsaw and I thought I'd start to drive back down to Bloomington at 8:30ish to maybe catch Atomic Age Cinema at midnight (should work). When I got about 30 miles from Bloomington, I discovered that 37 was closed due to flooding, so I called home (I don't have a map in my car because it was taken from me...by map thieves!), and my dad suggested I backtrack a bit and try 144, which I soon discovered was also closed. So I drove back to Indy (it was approaching 12:30am at this point) to take 465 East to 65 south and hopefully take 46 W to Bloomington as per my dad's advice. The exit for 46W was closed when I got there, so I went ahead to 58W and took that, figuring that since it was just a few miles south and going in the same cardinal direction, it'd be nearly as good. Unfortunately 58W actually goes SW and runs through every bumfuck town and winds around so much that it's hard to ever go faster than 35 MPH, especially at 1:15am. By this time I was completely out of Sprint's coverage area, so I was pretty much on my own, and with the gas light on, I was starting to get a little worried. After what seemed like an eternity I eventually got to a town called Freetown, and there found 135N with a sign that said it'd go to Nashville after 20some miles. I went for it and at about 2:15am I pulled into a gas station in Nashville. I put a few dollars worth of gas in the car and headed West to Bloomington and made it and I got home about a little after 3am and I missed my movie and drove about 120 miles out of the way.
ReplyDeleteTLDR: Southern Indiana is closed, stay out.
That is mighty impressive. And Adam, all I can say is wow. I'm quite glad I live on the north side of Indy where there is next to no chance of flooding.
ReplyDeleteWhat an odd music video.

Pictures from the Jonathan Coulton concert
ReplyDeleteso.. Southern Indiana.. is seeing a rising of the Deep Ones?

Did the concert take place in the depths of hell or did someone spill hawaiian punch on everything?

nope - the stage was lit with red lights.
ReplyDeletemy camera does not take videos.

ReplyDeleteTaking pictures of a concert is, I think, approximately the same as making an audio recording of a mime: an indication that you are fundamentally confused about what you just experienced.
Were these lights reddened with the blood of the innocent?
ReplyDeleteAlso, speaking of mimes, I think that instead of not talking they ought to instead ceaselessly curse.
ReplyDeleteI finally got around to picking up Brawl this weekend. To keep it short, I like this game. It is a wii game that doesn't ram the motion detection up your ass until you realize you aren't really into anal penetration. The unlocking of characters, while frustrating that they aren't available early one, isn't that painful because most of them as far as I can tell just unlock due to normal play. I can't complain because Ness was unlocked like 5 games in, so all is good in my world.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Sonic is an evil, evil rodent that belongs in the same pit of hell as pikachu. Suffice it to say, I am having problems unlocking him.
Heh..
ReplyDeleteeverything unlocks after a certain number of play hours, if you can't pull off the faster conditional method...
Oh, I've unlocked him (not sure how, I haven't reached any of the "known" methods to do so), but I have to beat him now. And he slaps me around like a little bitch.
ReplyDeleteIf I remember correctly in the gamecube version you could just start a CPU game with no time limit and let it run to unlock characters.
ReplyDeleteThis might be possible in the Wii version as well.
Also, pikachu kicks ass.
AHHH.
ReplyDeleteyeah.
if you have Ike, try getting comfortable with him and icin' him with a Smash ball?
Or just use Pikachu.
ReplyDeleteAnd press Down and B.
unlocking sonic and snake is a bitch. The AI on the Unlock battles seems is tough.
ReplyDeleteto unlock snake you have to play on the MGS level around 15 times.
Would anyone play the MGS level for reasons other than unlocking Snake?
ReplyDeleteSnake was easy, took him down in like 20 seconds. Sonic is just a pain to hit.
ReplyDeleteI like hte MGS level. It is extremely hard to fall off of it. But you can still knock people off. That to me is a quality level.
I think that the mark of a good level is that players fight one another rather than having to fight the level.
ReplyDeleteOn the Cube version the Ice Climber Level and the Mother Brain level can go fuck themselves. Also there were a few others that involved players having to move between platforms as the camera moved.

ReplyDeleteEqually, I question your ability to weigh in on this matter, considering your lack of experience with Brawl.
Note that I said "Smash Brothers" and not "Brawl" or "Melee".

ReplyDeleteThe problem is that the particulars of Project X require users to know a plethora of other information which is not necessarily immediately involved in Project X. So I never know what all to write.
Also, whenever I make Kabobs I also make Rice so that I can serve the Kabob with a bed of rice.
ReplyDeleteNow, as disgusting as this idea is, I'm wondering if one could used some sort of mashed potato as a bed for Kabobs.
I would never eat such a mess. But if someone did not like rice? Could a mashed potato serve as a bed for a Kabob?
Note: These are beef kabobs. And in my mind Beef and Potato could go together whereas chicken or seafood and potato are an unholy mess of bad.
Note that there is only a Brand, and not a product entitled Smash Bros, thus removing from consideration a specific game. Further note the context of the discussion, and it's focus upon Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
ReplyDeleteI call you out, sir.
Mashed? Unlikely.

ReplyDeleteMy position is that hot dogs are only edible in the academic sense of the word.
hulu.com the NBC/FOX jointly owned attempt at stemming YouTube Losses
ReplyDeleteIt's quite handy, considering you can 1)make your own clips, and 2) it's centralized.
I wasn't aware that the base sites had full eps. For the longest time they were all clips.
Hot Dogs are like alcohol. Most people buy some very low quality stuff, which is only good for "getting the job done" as it were.
ReplyDeleteSome people buy even lower quality, and suffer for it.
But if you go out of your way to get the good varieties, and pay a bit more? They are excellent.
Would you consider a brat a variety of hot dog or a hot dog a variety of brat? I assume the two are related, but I do not know the relation.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I've discovered what appear to be SubWay chocolate chip cookies out there as well. This merits further investigation.
They are both sausages, so.. neither. Cousins, at best.
ReplyDeleteAssuming the classic dog is a Frankfurter, the brat is a Bratwurst, etc.
Brats generally use the same specific spices.. plus.. beer or cheese..
Actually.. Rick had gotten a hold of those spices in a mix, for homemade bratwurst, and ended up making some amazing "burgers" out of them, mixing the spices in with 2/3 ground beef, 1/3 ground pork... and drizzling crap beer over it after it starts to firm up.

ReplyDeleteInterview with that comic book guy.
ReplyDeleteNippon Ichi knows their audience.
ReplyDeleteIt's like they asked -
"How much more complex, absurd, unnecessary, and over-the-top humorous can we possibly get? ....Let's shoot for twice that."
I didn't know it was possible, but Nippon Ichi is the only man capable of making a game that is too complex for me. Unfortunately, I also am not obsessed with anime to let that draw me in. I tried with Ichi, and I will probably try again when I get the urge, but man do his games overwhelm me.
ReplyDeleteThey're only overwhelming if you try to do everything...because you can't do everything.
ReplyDeleteDid I not mention in that previous thread about RPGs that I am a completionist at my core?
ReplyDeleteSure, but in how many games have you actually completed everything, ever? You enjoyed Diablo II but never completed everything. You played WoW for a while but never completed everything. You played Guitar Hero and never completed Expert.

ReplyDeleteThat could complicate the process.

Words to live by, when confronting Kyle Brown-
ReplyDelete"You shouldn't have brought Final Fantasy Tactics into this..."
True.
ReplyDeleteYou know what's fun? When your muffler falls off.
That's terribly fun.
Lol. Don't you just absolutely love how your car sounds without the muffler?
ReplyDeleteSide note: I work in a crazy place. There are currently chair races taking place in the hallway. I was told to vacate the hallway to make room for the chair races.
ReplyDeleteMy Taurus is a fucking beast without a muffler. God herself could not rumble with as much majesty.
ReplyDeleteTook it back to the place which initially put the muffler on. The original receipt was still in the glove box. So just $30 to get it fixed.
AND I got to sit in a muffler shop for an hour and a half playing Puzzle Quest.
All in all? Not a bad friday.
Guy who sits next to me asked if I was still going to lunch at 1:30, to which I said, "...yeah...".
Cause I haven't eaten yet today. And Puzzle Quest is hungering work.
I wish my Friday were like that. It would make for a sweet ass start to the weekend.
ReplyDeleteAnd by "fell off" i mean that literally. Driving to work, halfway there, loud scraping sound starts following me...
ReplyDeleteSo I think to myself, "Self? What to do?"

I've decided that I'm not going to watch M. Night Shamalot movies and rather I'll just read the wikipedia plot summaries.
ReplyDeleteThe only movie of his that I've actually watched was The Village. It was fucking stupid.
Yeah, the village wasn't great. Unbreakable and the Sixth Sense, however, are awesome. It might just be that any movie containing Bruce Willis makes everything about it better. I don't know, but those are great films
ReplyDeleteWhatever Bruce Willis adds Haley Joel "Go Die In A Fire" easily subtracts.
ReplyDeleteSo you have animosity towards Haley Joel Osment purely because of AI i take it?
