OT: The Avalounge: Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes (Turn and Face the Strange)

I played RuneScape for a little while when I was around 10 laugh but I will never understand adult humans playing WoW.

What gets you is the community. I've made some lifelong friends thanks to that game. I was a groomsman at a guy's wedding in New Jersey that I knew through WoW. I didn't meet the guy face to face until 3 days before the wedding. Still good friends with him and his wife (they also met through WoW, he moved to New Jersey to marry her).

I saw Metallica Wednesday night. These guys are the best touring act around.

I'm about as peanut butter Jelly as a guy could get about this. love metallica

best live concert I've ever seen was Nine Inch Nails in Calgary back in 08. Truly over the top and very intense

This solar eclipse business is about as interesting as the NHL awards.

If you stare at the sun really hard during the eclipse, you'll see Bettman laughing at you.

today has been the absolute slowest day at work ever... and no-one here is active to keep me distracted

Had a pretty spectacular weekend. A friend came into town and her and I spent the weekend exploring the various sites in the Wyoming Rockies and ended with seeing the eclipse at Vedauwoo. It was crazy afterwards... I saw more Golden Eagles at one spot than I have ever seen. Saw 11 in a really small radius. I can't recall seeing more than 3 or 4 in a small area like that, and I work in an industry where we seek them out.

You do? What do you do?

Accountant/business dude for an environmental firm. Most of it is wildlife mitigation plans, and eagles are a big part of that.

Alabama continues to suck, wtf New Mexico?

 

[henchman21]

Accurate for Wyoming... so incredibly accurate. Vegans are probably #2.

Shout-out to Texas for the right answer.

Really, chicken nuggets and Chipotle? Don't feel like that's the worst thing to hate...

For real. My dad worked for a restaurant in high school and said that anytime that someone ordered their steak well done he would refuse to cook their meal. A little over the top to say the least but I totally get it.

California showing why they continue to suck. **** Nevada, La Croix's are amazing. Stupid Texas. How can you hate pesto and chicken nuggets?

Chipotle is awful JWK.

 

[henchman21]

I think we can all agree that cookies with raisins are the worst thing on there. Worse than tapas, worse than pumpkin spice, worse than turkey bacon...

 

[Bonzai12]

how can you hate cold pizza? or sour cream?

I'm also starting to hate Chipotle and seeing the light. There's nothing that wets my appetite more than when the Chipotle kid slides his hand across the entire food line to wipe it up with his glove, and then handles my food. Yummy.

Not worse than licorice. Maggots won't eat that stuff.

 

[Bonzai12]

love black licorice. I have to stay away from sambuca

 

[ASmileyFace]

Tennessee hates foraged foods...? wtf lol

Red or black? Because black is disgusting, red is pretty good.

The real question here is what the hell is wrong with California?

 

[Papa Francouz]

Thanks for that summary. I've never been a PVP guy but I can understand why people love it. I really liked the capture the flag thing in WOW. That was awesome.

Is this final fantasy game on PC or do I have to buy a console? I'm playing in a few football sim leagues but looking for something else to fill the time.

One of FFXIV's big selling points is that you can play it on either PC or console (but only PS4 or XBONE). There cross-platform play right off the bat. Personally, I don't see any benefits to playing on a console, as you have more control with keyboard+mouse, but to each their own.

Im with California...
