Tracking this topic till Ubisoft's press conference

I exercise hard almost daily and have to, by necessity, eat lots of nutritious food. I sleep pretty well too, but I still have big discolored dark rings around my eyes that make it look like I have insomnia.

Your genetics plays a factor. I have friends who are always sleep deprived but you'd never know by how they look. Some have one bad night's sleep and have dark rings from hell around their eyes.

I once had an extremely vivid dream of being in a park close to where I live and the sky was crowded with military jets, planes, stealth bombers and stuff like that and in the dream I knew it was Russia attacking, although there was no indication it was Russia. One of those weird dream things where you just know.

I was panicked because I wanted to run away but the scope of it all made it impossible, since there was aircraft as far as the eye could see, so I couldn't run anywhere safe. Intense feeling.

In like 6th grade when you were eating lunch with friends and one pulled out a cosmic brownie everyone was like "ohhhh s***. I'll trade you my fruit rollup for that."

But the cosmic brownie was the ultimate snack, so no kid in their right mind would ever trade one.

GTA: San Andreas. The off-topic board for the PS2 was my first time posting on a forum of any kind. I was about 10 at the time (2005-ish). Made my first internet friends on there, talked to them on MSN Messenger for a while afterwards. Then I started trolling too hard, broke ToS and got banned. Those were the days.

Fire Red/Leaf Green did it, because it was a remake that was far, far too close to the originals.

B2/W2 did it because they moved the early game from B/W to the postgame, which had the unfortunate side effect of moving the daycare to the end as well

I'm pretty sure there's still a daycare on the route south of Cerulean in FR/LG, right?

When Mega's were first rumored I thought it would be a good thing because they could make weak, forgotten pokemon relevant again. Didn't think they'd go so overboard with them though.

Even if I'm not gunna be posting/browsing I always wanna come just to get the sweet karma then go about my day.

I could have been ancient by now.... :(

Congrats my dude.

What's your strat? Cutting portions, counting calories? Certain food group restrictions?

I went from 200 to 160 (5'10) 4 summers ago by cutting all snack foods and restricting my meals to just 3 properly portioned meals a day and been great ever since. Back at the gym and feeling a lot better than I did back then.

I'm in "what the **** am I doing" mode and I'm only 22. I can't imagine having that mindset at 32.

The only reason blue eyes are still around is because women have collectively decided they like that feature in guys and have fucked around accordingly. This can be extended out to literally any recessive gene that is widespread. Women are basically selectively breeding the human race based on what they find attractive.

Because it's totally not possible at all for men to also like that feature in women and have it go the other way.

I can guess by your deep insecurities feeding your vitriol towards blue eyes and women that you have neither blue eyes nor a woman. I'm a psychic!

I regret the 10 dollars I spent on one version of the game.

They're tanking.

We live in an age where we're all over-stimulated and craving the next bit of information. You likely spend too much time on the internet (like most of us) where your every need and curiosity can be instantly gratified, which can lead to a worsening attention span, since you can just move on to whatever you want to in an instant. Basically, your mind doesn't need to focus on any one thing for too long because the insane efficiency and speed at which you can acquire new information allows your mind to constantly wander.

Sounds like you need to learn about mindfulness and maybe try meditation. Reading books might help too, but one thing at a time. Too many people here will just assume you have a mental illness or some crap. Most people don't. Try taking care of yourself and ask yourself if you are honestly doing all that you can to improve and enrich your life.

Given how many Americans are obese I would reckon there's probably good food everywhere.

Holding you to it.

Renting is totally fine. The only iffy thing is if you get a bad landlord, which is a roll of the dice.

Congrats, though!

There's a lot of amazing games this gen you can make a solid case for.

Are we in a golden age of gaming? In terms of the sheer quantity of really good games. There's something out there for everybody.

Damn I was hoping for a video.

If I could do 100/100 I fricken would. Don't think I wouldn't. I'm crazy

The best punk rock, to me, is the old stuff. Ramones, Clash, Sex Pistols, etc.

That said, there's some interesting punk stuff happening lately. For high-tempo classic punk style, check out White Reaper's "White Reaper Does it Again". For stuff on the punk periphery but isn't necessarily classic punk style (think post-punk, garage, noise, etc) check out Ought's "Sun Coming Down", Parquet Court's "Sunbathing Animal" and "Human Performance", and Cloud Nothings' "Here and Nowhere Else".

Happy listening!

I won't fall for your grilled cheese propaganda.

If it involves cheese and bread that have been grilled, no matter what other ingredients you use, it's a grilled cheese.

So it goes viral and gets a bunch of curious people in the doors.
