AusGAF 8 - Worksafe Wankers

Status
Not open for further replies.
Still trying to struggle through Octopussy. It just dawdles along. All unimportant and bland like. A true Cold War movie written by the common man on the street. Who is boring.

I can't bring myself to watch the old bond movies again. I watched a few of the Pierce brosnan ones a while back, have not aged well.
 
A few of them are still fantastic, up there with Casino Royale.

Also, Hi AusGAF! Shan told me to sign up, so here I am! I know all her horrible secrets, so ask me anything I guess!

No guarantee of answers, though, as she already has a penchant for randomly punching me and I wouldn't necessarily want to encourage that any more

Do you like scotch?
How about bacon?

How about Crackdown and Ricki Lee Coulter?

I'm spending my night drawing
and re-drawing :(
a comic about Rick Dangerous. Not a bad way to spend an evening. Then maybe some Game Maker...

I've been looking for a Scotch or other Whisky (Maybe even Whiskey?!) I like, but so far they've been too sweet for me, which I've been told is a weird tripping point.

Much more of a Gin person in general.

And a pretty much unequivocal yes for Bacon. Though I might choose a good Ham over it if forced to.

Did I pass?

They did have that ridiculous sensationalist stuff about Jason Rubin at THQ last year, which soured me on them pretty badly.

I do try not to hold Brian Crecente against them too much though, because I do like the McElroys.

Haha, dont worry, I havent given polygon any credit yet, they havent earnt any at all.

Also hi. Question: does shan really like bacon? We know you do, so you can be trusted, but having an informant is important here.

Yep! I believe the terrifying bacon-filled monstrosity we cooked once was largely her idea, so I'd say so unless she's putting on a very good show.

I actually woke up with some semi-nasty bruises last time she punched me. Her kicks ain't bad neither!

And man, Gin really is the most controversial liquor, isn't it? I've made an enemy with my second post, all thanks to Gin!

real-talk, I know it really isn't for everyone. I don't begrudge anyone a dislike of gin. Just means more for me!
 
THANKS SHANEUS

Bacon! Yay!

Also Gin is okay. Too many bad martini experiences for me though with Gin.
Any whiskey that is aged will become less sweet over time I think is true. You can find plenty out there! Maybe even ask at Dan Murphy's (or better yet wait for Danoss & Cod to post examples).

NEDROID IS A PRETTY GOOD COMIC, GUY

Yes. Yes it is. It may be...my favourite?

Also Hi Jintor!

You may not post in the SE++ AusPax thread too much (you should) but you are instantly recognisable from your part in Fishman's LP!

You definitely have to be extremely picky about where you buy a Martini. I've only ever had really great ones from one place.

As for Whisky, a friend of mine was going to organise a big tasting night but then we both got very poor, so it went on hold. Still really looking forward to finding something!

Fuck yes it is. This is my favourite Nedroid.

I think it came up back in November. I blame Shaneus entirely. It is on the level of Dinosaur Comics for me.

Mine



Octopussy
Movie - 1.5/5 (Just pointless and boring)
Transfer - 3.5/5 (Nothing special, looks decent, hasn't cleaned up fantastic)

One more to fucking go :/

Had lots at home, only bought one once or twice when out (Mr Hydes was the last place :( ).

That Kamiya thread is now 15 pages, damn.

Seems to be just be the same arguments. Will not read.

Do you eat shit Rahk? Do you?

I am saddened that that is now a standard acceptable insult to use in regards to a few things it seems.

Ugh, just ordered a replacement set of light headphones to do me over until I can be bothered sorting the warranty on my broke ones, and the ones I bought don't have the iPhone remote like it was advertised. I hate having to chase stupid shit like this up :/

That is weird, I've never found Scotch to be sweet or been told such until now. There are flavours that will appear in a Scotch which would be categorised as sweet, but they don't really come across like that. Bourbon must be unbearably sweet for you.

Perhaps you might like to explore the peated whiskys, which I would hope you wouldn't find sweet in the slightest. Jumping in head-first to the heavily peated ones might not be the best thing to do, especially in summer (maybe the summer thing is just me, I find the heavily peated whiskys are more of a winter warmer).

Talisker 10 might be a Scotch you find enjoyable, it's a nice medium between the two and one of my favourites.

Nothing wrong with liking Gin if that's your thing. If you do try Talisker 10 and if you want to go for even more peat, something like Lagavulin 16, and it's not to your tastes then maybe Scotch isn't for you and that's okay.

Your reference to Nedroid back in November has led to more people reading it and bringing it up.

Easy to see man!
Ah, goodo. You're welcome. Feel free to get me drunk at PAX as a way of saying thank you (as opposed to the cheapskate way of just posting "thank you" on a message board in bits and bytes).

$200 or so, I've seen it for around $200 somewhere on ozbargain.com.au before but if you can't be bothered waiting for another deal there is always ebay. I haven't regretted buying my Vita for even a second, great system with some great games.

It's going to remain that way until kotaku stop posting fake news the way they always do.

Eh, the kotaku writers deserved it. They take a twitter post out of context, make a news story with a headline insulting the dev and an article insulting a country. I don't think they should feel entitled to a quiet request for clarification since they always post rubbish like that.

Overtook a p plater doing 60 in an 80 zone. 30 seconds later, they came hooning past me on the wrong side of the road over double white lines, passengers out the window screaming their heads off. Good times.

I rear ended a punk kid this morning that decided to move 3 lanes at once and then stopped abruptly. Probably going to need a new bumper.

Picked up an iPhone yesterday. Give me all your sweet apps and games.
 
Vita has been $182 delivered new with LBP Vita from Amazon.de and $196 delivered with AC3 Liberation (the one that Choc said was good) from Amazon US recently.
EB had the Vita by itself for $198 back in December too.

I'll keep any eye out for current deals.
