  1. Me and a couple of guys at work challenged each other to make our interpretation the mythical "Bacon Burger Dog" from the Cosby Show. Since you never actually saw it, it was pretty open to interpretation. Mine was a lean beef patty sandwiched between two jalapeno-cheddar bratwursts cut in half. The sausage and beef were wrapped in 3 slices of bacon and grilled. Turned out okay, I think.
  2. Yeah, I can move, but I'd rather not just jump up and go somewhere without having a new job or a plan. I've had no luck with finding a new job for some reason, so that part of it isn't really possible. I mean, it is, but I just feel uneasy about moving without a sure thing waiting for me. I am going to start exercising again. I was thinking about it today and I walked briskly around the parking lot at work on my lunch break today. It wasn't the most strenuous thing, but it was good for what it was. I am going to get up in the morning and jog a bit. I absolutely hate it, but yeah, I'm gonna fackin' do it. Thanks a lot.
  3. To me it kind of sounds like you're lacking balance. I don't know what your private life looks like, but I'd suggest you to socialize more or exercise. I know this sounds like shitty advice but everything changed like me when I started running . I lost weight, got more confident, had more self control in other things as well and I just became more optimistic. I hated sport of any kind but the now the best feeling I know is when you run for over an hour and you feel like you could continue for the rest of your life. It also inspires me and motivates me to get shit done, which might help you with your lack of concentration. Hope this helps. You very well could be right. Exercise is very tied into this current situation. In 2011, my boss left the company and I took over as the interim manager of my department. During that period of time, I gained a lot of weight and was really stressed out. I started working out and lost a great deal of what I'd gained, and I also noticed that my productivity level had gone up. I got a lot done that year and worked really hard on all fronts. I made a lot of progress. In mid-2012, I applied for the mgmt job when it was actually posted and expected to get it. I did not, and it really made me angry. The guy they hired over me wasn't very good and he left in less than a year. I applied for that job again and still didn't get it, and the current guy is someone who actually has no experience in the field. He's an absolute moron. I stopped working out last year and have just been stewing in anger and it's really bringing all my personal problems to the forefront. I'm thinking more about my lack of friends and poor relationship with my family. I'm more cognizant of how much time is passing and how much older I'm getting, and it's really making me sad. It's a rut for sure. But again, you could be right. Perhaps what I need to do is get back to working out, because although I hate it, it was something that I'd taken control of and really stuck to, and everything around me seemed to be moving forward. While it isn't the solution to all my problems, it very well could be a step in the right direction. As far as socializing, well, that's not something I do well, and this town is really crappy and there's nothing to do. So..... I don't think that's going to happen. Thanks for your suggestions.
  4. This past year has been difficult for me. I've been feeling really lost and lonely, like nothing good is ever going to happen for me. I feel stuck in a crappy job that I've outgrown, with a dumbass boss who has no idea how to do his job and it's really insulting to me. I have had no luck in finding other work, and every day I sit at my desk getting so angry and I worry that I'm going to do something stupid. When I get home, I can't seem to concentrate on creative endeavors or classwork (I'm currently working on a Master's), so I just sit here and either screw around on the net or .... just stare at the screen. I'll play a video game or like an hour or something and then get bored. I'm always alone and my phone never rings. My family doesn't give a fuck about me unless they want something. There's just a lot of crap going on and I feel that I need to break out of it somehow. I just don't know what to do.
  5. I just listened to Del the Funky Homosapien's newest album, Iller Than Most. It's the one he released for free earlier in the year. I just now got around to it, but it's pretty damn cool. His rhymes and charisma are over the top on this record. I highly recommend it. Also in heavy rotation is that new Venetian Snares. I'm feeling it.
  6. I need to go back and play through Nocturne. I have owned that game forever but haven't really done much with it. I told myself I'd revisit it once I finished SMTIV, but after I beat that game, I realized I was all SMT'ed out since I spent 160 hours on it.
  7. I listened to this record recently and really liked it. I was surprised because I really didn't like any of the Hype Williams stuff. Fit 1 and L'oreal are some real tunes.
  8. How much is it? $15. Worth every penny, in my opinion.
  9. Any of you tried Shovel Knight yet? I just downloaded it on Wii U and it's pretty fun so far. Very easy to pick up and play. It's very much a love letter to NES games and is very well done.
  10. How stupid. I was wondering how this Kickstarter went, and now I see it was far from being a success and the guy wants to buy and destroy the record? What a cunt. As far as the so-called album that's supposed to come out next month, you can pretty much bank on it either not happening or not being very good. It's the least united that they've ever been and that assures us that it will not be a quality record. This makes me incredibly sad because they're my very favorite hiphop group, but I really didn't want them to even try to make this thing without everyone being on the same page. Raekwon refusing to do it and Ghostface only contributing minimally? It's a seemingly thrown-together project and I just don't have high hopes for it. The only thing that we can be sure of is that Method Man will have great verses throughout because he seems to be the only one who was all in from day one.
  11. I'm so proud of you guys! We came together in the name of awesome music! WATMM15+4EVA I haven't listened to the album yet, but I think it's weird that it's streaming on Youtube already. Wasn't this against the agreement with RDJ/Grant? I thought we were supposed to keep it to ourselves.... ?
  12. I personally think it's a pretty good album. It's the first from them I've really enjoyed since Geogaddi, but then again, I've never been the biggest BOC fan. I listened to it a lot the first week, then only sporadically went back to it, mainly only to listen to Jacquard Causeway. Not a bad album at all.
  13. Turned out I was being a numpty and you don't need any motion controls at all for this game - not even a sensor bar, since the Wiimotes pair via Bluetooth... Nice game, but I don't think it (or Smash Bros.) will save Nintendo at this point. This statement makes me incredibly sad.
  14. What Squarepusher is in Watch Dogs? Google says Dark Steering. Indeed, I did Google it as soon as I made that post. Felt kind of dumb, really.
  15. I suck bad, but I'll play with you. We're 3DS friends, I'll add you on Wii U as well. What Squarepusher is in Watch Dogs?
  16. Supposedly that's what is up next. Whatever the next Mario game is, I don't want it to be another Galaxy game. Yes, Galaxy 1 and 2 were awesome, but how about a new idea? Everyone is calling for Galaxy 3, but I don't feel that it is necessary. 2 more than satisfied my desire for that series. I would like something in the vein of Super Mario Sunshine, honestly. I don't mean Sunshine 2, but a huge 3D Mario game that encourages exploration and opening up new areas on an island or something like that. Well, I guess that's all 3D Marios, but you know what I'm saying. But I'm not picky. 3D World 2 would be fine with me. Super Mario 3D world IS a proper follow up to Galaxy 2 - nay, a proper follow up to Super Mario World. You're right. I'm glad you said that.

  18. I'm in the minority, but I want another Mario game. I wouldn't mind a direct sequel to Super Mario 3D World, considering I loved the hell out of that game. I know that wouldn't solve Nintendo's Wii U problem, but I'd be happy that I had another brilliant game to play. But really, I want them to announce some sort of blockbuster that would get people excited and make them start buying the thing. It seems to me that they're really confused and don't know what they should do with the system. I'm not the type who thinks they need to get out of the hardware business, not at all, but I feel like they should have thought about the Wii U more before they actually made the thing. It's a great system, but why would you release something with a controller that not even the developers have a use for? Even worse, why not put out some amazing games for it as soon as it is released?
  19. It's going to be the QOL platform. I'd be happy if they announced a new Wii U, like the same system but ...better? Change the name to Wii 2. I don't know, I just want them to sell more systems and get some 3rd party support. Wii U is a great console and it's a shame that no one knows or cares about it.
  20. I almost killed him by running up and down the stairs and plunge attacking on top of him. That was very tedious and hard to keep up.
  21. This is where I quit. I knew it was best to try and beat him before taking on the hydra, but I couldn't do it.... So I tried the hydra and ended up falling in a hole in the water.... I haven't played it since. Strangely enough, I bought DS II and am finding it even more difficult than the first, so I've pretty much quit on it.
