Yeah well all these nice beer flavours floating around and I'll be stuck at home with a choice of the two below /sarcasm. Misses is out, I've got the kids for near two days solo and just found out home Internet is out until Monday.
I'll be needing some beers later tonight :)
Now I wonder if you can plug in a 4G USB dongle to an xbox one...

I've got tall bottles of Hahn Super Dry, Toohey's Extra Dry and Carlton Draught in the fridge for tonight.

No Coopers Pale Ale or even a novelty VB option. Are you sure that citizenship paper is legit?

Also they are called longnecks you need to get your shit together man.

My girlfriend's got some of that Elk Berries & Lime cider from Liquorland.

It's quite good stuff.

I was near Ebgames last night and said fuck it. So far I've played it for a good 3 hours and still enjoy it immensely. I think die had PAZ dragon players find the Mario part underwhelming, but I'm having a great time with it.
Going to ebgames also made me remember why I don't like going to ebgames, I don't need to be reminded about all the upcoming releases that I pre-order
 
Still better than Avengers AoU.

oh, I understand why people like it more. It's got the best action of any film, great art direction, camerawork, editing and direction from Miller.

It's also pretty mindless when it comes to plot and characters and I'm pinging it for that. Action films that are just action are things that I get bored with pretty quickly. To its credit, I didn't zone out during the action like I have for some films. Acting is spotty which some great Aussie characters in small parts and some wooden mannequins doing poor acting in bikinis but at least managed better Aussie accents than the star. Charlize Theron might have attempted to lose the american accent but otherwise she was great.

Would I see a sequel? Yes. Would I watch this again? Probably not. For me, it's 2015's Pacific Rim.

So I guess next up is Tomorrowland (San Andreas opens same day but no interest in that). Looking forward to going into that one blind.

Not sure what movie to watch tonight but I need to watch something. I have no real idea what I want to watch though.

Throw out movie titles at me. I haven't seen a lot of 'classics'

670 should run it, 960 is a only a bit better and runs it on "high" settings at a targeted framerate of 40fps based on those nvidia ge force experience things that came out.

I'll ditch my 560 for a 970 at some point, but there's not really anything high fidelity on the horizon I'll be playing right away

I know this is going to go completely sideways once the Rift consumer hits along with the Vive and shit, but hopefully the 970 affords me enough rendering ability to be able to handle some VR games for a while. Because not having 75+FPS is killer for that stuff.

And I reaally want to roll Project Cars / Euro Truck with a rift and wheel. :D
 
Begin savings cephalopod:

I know there was discussion earlier about cheap places for Batman Arkham Knight. I received an email from ozgameshop today saying they have steamkeys for $32.99 with a further 10% off using the code BATMAD. They also have the season pass for $19.99.

End savings cephalopod.

so tempting, but 1- that's really cheap and 2- wanted it on console. also 3- that's really cheap!

I'd probably bite but I would prefer not to have to download a (if the trend remains the same) a 60gig game. Plus I've been looking for a reason to use a JB Giftcard I have from Christmas. But sub-$30 dollareedoos is insane. Even if you go the stupid season pass (ugh, I really hate those things) as well it would end up less than a console version.

I don't suppose they've mentioned how big the game will end up being, have they?

Ooh man, I started drinking at 1pm yesterday, now have the biggest hangover and the missus kicked me out of bed because we're going hiking.

What have I done to deserve this cruel fate.
 
Victorian dudes. The RSPCA cat fee waiver ends today so get down to a pets place or an RSPCA run shelter and get a free adult cat until you have to wait until next year. 4 months+ is counted as not a kitten.

I don't know if this waiver is all over the country but check your local RSPCA site to see.

I promise I'm not shilling :( we just have so many cats ;__;
 
Kwak, Duvel, St Bernardus, Piraat, Chimay, Straffe Hendrick, Satan's Gold, De Koninck, so many great beers from such a small country. And of course Westvleteren, not that you'll ever see it here (just drink St Berbardus Abt 12, basically same thing).

I truly believe Beligan beers are the best beers in the world. I just wish they weren't so expensive here.
