    What Video Games Are You Currently Playing

    Destiny: Forsaken has me hooked again! Good content, the darker tone that 1 had is back and the writing is on point again... The revamps to the weapon system and various economy things are a massive improvement. Destiny actually fun again! The previous Warmind expansion was pretty good as well, but Forsaken has really stepped it up for taking the game in a huge and much needed step in the right direction.

     

    Also: Spider-Man looks fun as hell, definitely gotta get on that soon.

    Been battling with something interfering with my wi-fi signal in my apartment for a couple weeks now (too many xfinity routers in one area im sure). Reset the router a dozen times, moved it, etc. Finally had to look up how to go in and manually change the signal channels, after a bit of fucking around it seems like I got it. Still probably need a wi-fi range extender to consistently  reach the bedroom in the back, but it seems MUCH better tonight than it has been.

    Daughters formed after As The Sun Sets broke up, Lex was the frontman for both bands. Daughters themselves started as a grind band, their first "album" Canada Songs is just over 11 minutes long...



    They've since gotten less grindy, but never less noisy. Hell Songs their 2nd album was their big breakthrough, it's all fucking great.

    Yeah, I dig both the new tracks as well... Really looking forward to the new album, I love the way this band has progressed. And beyond his odd delivery, Lex's lyrics are darkly poetic. I picked up his poetry book recently and he's a decent poetry writer, he's said in an interview most of the Daughters lyrics since Hell Songs have started as poems.

    pics you took that you're pleased with

    cool pic, which city is that?

     

    the sky-bridges are a dead giveaway to anyone whose been there.

     

     

    also his location gives it away, methinks

     

    It's downtown Minneapolis, known for the Skyways as Marked said...

    "The Minneapolis Skyway System is an interlinked collection of enclosed pedestrian footbridges that connect various buildings in 80 full city blocks over 11 miles (18 km) of Downtown Minneapolis, enabling people to walk in climate-controlled comfort year-round." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minneapolis_Skyway_System

     

    also, nice shots

    My wife's sister has been living with us since the end of June, she moved here to the Twin Cities for school. The school she's going to doesn't have dorms and she doesn't know anyone to room with yet and her parents can't afford to put her in a place of her own. I'm agreeing to this arrangement out of love for my wife, and as a huge favor to her parents who are pretty great people...

     

    but I swear, if current trends keep up I'm going to murder my SIL by the end of the year, she's 19,very much with the teenage mindset still, and also has a bad case of youngest child syndrome...  :facepalm:  :catsob:  :catnope:

     

    dude, while she's sleeping... with a pillow.

     

     

     

    just change your wifi password and don't tell her. she'll leave

     

     

    lol, i fucking should

    Funny Autechre Stories

    I think I've told this one in CHATMM before but not in this thread...

    Years ago, I was driving around with a friend. We were pretty fucking stoned and we went to pick up his gf at the time. She was like the definition of basic bitch, sheltered, rich girl. After driving around a while she's being kinda obnoxious to the point where even my buddy is getting a little annoyed with her. I had played Gantz Graf for him earlier that night, and he while not into IDM at all appreciated the chaos of the track, he knew however that basic bitch wouldn't though...

     

    After getting annoyed enough with her he turns to me and says "ghOsty, put that one song on again", I put it on and he cranks the car stereo WAY the fuck up. She's instantly freaked out and overwhelmed by the sounds... and starts shouting things like "What the hell guys? What is this?!" "I don't like this, James (my buddy) turn it off!" "You guys, this is scaring me"... She's in fucking TEARS by the end of the track crying and shouting "You guys, this isn't funny staaaaaahhhp" meanwhile we're geeking out in the front and laughing our asses off at her reaction... lol, fuck you Lauren.
