Story time:

me: "Cool, I'll sign up for this membership. I'm moving in a month though, and you said there are Fitness Evolution gyms in Boston right"
gym dude: "Yeah, totally. And you can transfer your membership out there, or cancel at anytime."
me: "Neat, sign me up"

Google Fitness Evolution Boston today to find a gym. No results.

me calling: "Hey, so I'd like to cancel my membership. I was told there were gyms out here but they don't exist."
gym lady: "Oh ok. Well all you need to do is stop into the gym and we can cancel your membership."
me: "I'm in Boston."
gym lady: "Oh. Well you have to mail us a cancelation notice with all this information. Then we can process it."
me: "Why can't I just do that on the phone right now?"
gym lady: "That's just how the process works."

Take three guesses who brought up green day and my chemical romance (anyone can answer)

I don't spend a lot of time in the emo music thread so I honestly have no idea.



Right, so about X-Men: Apocalypse...

It's certainly not the worst X-Men movie and it's not the best either. I'd probably have to put it in the middle. It's probably the worst if you're only counting the First Class trilogy, or at least almost tying DoFP.

I liked the other mutants. Nightcrawler felt mainly like comic relief but it was enjoyable to see him back since X-Men 2. Psylocke had a cool, threatening presence, as did Storm, but neither of them really get the chance to do much.
They're trying to set something up with Psylocke, but what are her motivations for deep-seated revenge? Because she lost? That look on her face looked personal, like they killed her family or something (as an aside, that scene with Magneto's family was bullshit. I hate the "oops I killed someone by mistake after everything was fine" trope)
Apocalypse also wasn't quite the "I am as far beyond mutants as they are beyond you" levels of foreboding. He had a presence, but it wasn't that big.
I feel cheated that he only got huge in the mind battle.

Also, is it just me or did
Jean speak entirely in movie-speak? None of her lines felt natural like they do in Game of Thrones. It was all cliches and references (the one about the third movie always being the worst was funny but maybe don't put that line in the third movie unless you know it's a slam dunk)
Em would probably like the
mind scene where she's got her Lexa hair going on and is the least helpless I've ever seen her in anything.
Sansa would wreck the GoT universe with Jean's abilities.

I have mixed feelings about
that Wolverine cameo
. On one hand,
he didn't need to be in the movie at all and it felt somewhat out of nowhere and forced.
On the other hand
I thought it was funny/cool that he didn't have any speaking lines at all and was full Adamantium Rage/berserker barrage the entire time.

I hate this movie for making me like Cyclops.

I'll do you one better: I'll actually care.

PM if you need to talk/vent/rant.

Total bullshit.

How long are you there for? Got room in your place for a squat rack and bench? And somewhere to deadlift of course.

Turn on the German keyboard. The Mac version will do language detection and change its autocorrect but they haven't put that on iOS yet.

I was typing on my phone so it wouldn't have helped :/
All my Facebooking is done through my phone.

Total bullshit.

No, but that would be hilarious to try and stuff a full rack into my room.

I think I may have found a nice gym that is between here and work on the red line. It's independent, so hopefully doesn't come with all this bullshit. (dealt with the same shit through Gold's Gym, who turned into Fitness Evolution within MN)

It's only slightly achy too so I don't need drugs atm.

Wrong. One always needs drugs.

My girlfriend's birthday is coming up soon and I sorta dread the gift aspect because it feels like a lot of pressure to find the right thing.

I have great ideas, but they're all for joke gifts. I think I need something not intended as a joke as well.. I'm wise enough to know that much

This is what all that makeup practice has been building towards.

Don't do what Joey did on Friends and give her a coupon for an hour of Matt love.

haha I've already done her makeup and I'm good at it, no lie or bs

I'm thinking I'll do a drawing of her since I still remember when I first met her one of the first things she did when she saw my drawing stuff was ask me to draw her, and I kinda wiggled out of it because I didn't want to

Aw, that's sweet!
 
I never want a big gift on my birthday. I much prefer being taken out to a really nice dinner and show or something similar.

But Nikki may be super different. Does she indulge in makeup or lingerie? That sometimes makes a really nice gift when they buy you the kind of thing you already want but wouldn't generally splurge on.

I prefer both

Hint hint Jobbs, do both and give her a gift at dinner. The drawing is a sweet idea. Maybe even give her a real gift at dinner and a joke gift afterwards, as an extra surprise.

Yeah, but makeup and lingerie always seem like a difficult thing to pick for someone else, since she's the one who'll be wearing it, not me

And if I just specifically have her tell me what she wants that doesn't seem right to me. The onus is on me alone

I prefer both

You probably can't even nearly comprehend the number of stupid jokes and bullshit that goes on as a result of me, haha

But I'm going to try to keep the dumb joke gifts to 1 maximum so as not to overdo it

Finally finished Doom on nightmare last night.
Glad I draw left handed cause I'm pretty sure there was some rsi happening on my mouse hand from that last area. Fuck.

Edit : <catches up on thread> Jobbs, go with t he drawing. Gifts with emotional context are always leagues ahead of "things"

No shit Sherlock.


Haha, yeah, it always interests me to see how others see me I guess.

Yesss (jump straight into Ultra-Violence, the enemy pacing is unreal)

I'm still getting severely spanked in Level 4 on Ultra-Violence. :(

Is that
Argent Facility
?

I find the level directly after is one of my favourites in the game, push through it man!

And it's getting worse over time, especially with e3 around the corner.
